Deu 26:1It shall be, when you are come in to the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell therein,
Deu 26:2that you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that the LORD your God gives you; and you shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
Deu 26:3You shall come to the Kohen who shall be in those days, and tell him, I profess this day to the LORD your God, that I am come to the land which the LORD swore to our fathers to give us.
Deu 26:4The Kohen shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD your God.
Deu 26:5You shall answer and say before the LORD your God, A Arammian ready to perish was my father; and he went down into Mitzrayim, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.
Deu 26:6The Mitzrim dealt ill with us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:
Deu 26:7and we cried to the LORD, the God of our fathers, and the LORD heard our voice, and saw our affliction, and our toil, and our oppression;
Deu 26:8and the LORD brought us forth out of Mitzrayim with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror, and with signs, and with wonders;
Deu 26:9and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 26:10Now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, the LORD, have given me. You shall set it down before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God:
Deu 26:11and you shall rejoice in all the good which the LORD your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is in the midst of you.
Deu 26:12When you have made an end of tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled.
Deu 26:13You shall say before the LORD your God, I have put away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your mitzvah which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed any of your mitzvot, neither have I forgotten them:
Deu 26:14I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put away of it, being unclean, nor given of it for the dead: I have listened to the voice of the LORD my God; I have done according to all that you have commanded me.
Deu 26:15Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Yisra'el, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Deu 26:16This day the LORD your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances: you shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.
Deu 26:17You have declared the LORD this day to be your God, and that you would walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his mitzvot, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice:
Deu 26:18and the LORD has declared you this day to be a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his mitzvot;
Deu 26:19and to make you high above all nations that he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be a holy people to the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
