DE-26:1 And it shall be, when thou [art] come in unto the land
which the LORD
thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance, and possessest it, and
dwellest
therein;
DE-26:2 That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of
the earth,
which thou shalt bring of thy land that the LORD thy God giveth
thee, and
shalt put [it] in a basket, and shalt go unto the place which
the LORD thy God
shall choose to place his name there.
DE-26:3 And thou shalt go unto the priest that shall be in
those days, and
say unto him, I profess this day unto the LORD thy God, that I
am come unto
the country which the LORD sware unto our fathers for to give us.
DE-26:4 And the priest shall take the basket out of thine hand,
and set it
down before the altar of the LORD thy God.
DE-26:5 And thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, A
Syrian ready
to perish [was] my father, and he went down into Egypt, and
sojourned there
with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and
populous:
DE-26:6 And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us,
and laid upon
us hard bondage:
DE-26:7 And when we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, the
LORD heard
our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our
oppression:
DE-26:8 And the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a
mighty hand, and
with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with
signs, and
with wonders:
DE-26:9 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given
us this land,
[even] a land that floweth with milk and honey.
DE-26:10 And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the
land, which
thou, O LORD, hast given me. And thou shalt set it before the
LORD thy God,
and worship before the LORD thy God:
DE-26:11 And thou shalt rejoice in every good [thing] which the
LORD thy God
hath given unto thee, and unto thine house, thou, and the Levite,
and the
stranger that [is] among you.
DE-26:12 When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes
of thine
increase the third year, [which is] the year of tithing, and
hast given [it]
unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow,
that they may
eat within thy gates, and be filled;
DE-26:13 Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have
brought away the
hallowed things out of [mine] house, and also have given them
unto the Levite,
and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow,
according to all
thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not
transgressed thy
commandments, neither have I forgotten [them]:
DE-26:14 I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have
I taken away
[ought] thereof for [any] unclean [use], nor given [ought]
thereof for the
dead: [but] I have hearkened to the voice of the LORD my God,
[and] have done
according to all that thou hast commanded me.
DE-26:15 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and
bless thy
people Israel, and the land which thou hast given us, as thou
swarest unto our
fathers, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
DE-26:16 This day the LORD thy God hath commanded thee to do
these statutes
and judgments: thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all
thine heart, and
with all thy soul.
DE-26:17 Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God,
and to walk in
his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and
his judgments,
and to hearken unto his voice:
DE-26:18 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his
peculiar people,
as he hath promised thee, and that [thou] shouldest keep all his
commandments;
DE-26:19 And to make thee high above all nations which he hath
made, in
praise, and in name, and in honour; and that thou mayest be an
holy people
unto the LORD thy God, as he hath spoken.
