Deuteronomy 26:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 When you enter the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, and you occupy it and live in it,
2 you must take the first of all the ground's produce you harvest from the land the LORD your God is giving you, place it in a basket, and go to the place where he chooses to locate his name.
3 You must go to the priest in office at that time and say to him, "I declare today to the LORD your God that I have come into the land that the LORD promised to our ancestors to give us."
4 The priest will then take the basket from you and set it before the altar of the LORD your God.
5 Then you must affirm before the LORD YOUR GOD, "A wandering Aramean was my ancestor, and he went down to Egypt and lived there as a foreigner with a household few in number, but there he became a great, powerful, and numerous people.
6 But the Egyptians mistreated and oppressed us, forcing us to do burdensome labor.
7 So we cried out to the LORD, the God of our ancestors, and he heard us and saw our humiliation, toil, and oppression.
8 Therefore the LORD brought us out of Egypt with tremendous strength and power, as well as with great awe-inspiring signs and wonders.
9 Then he brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 So now, look! I have brought the first of the ground's produce that you, LORD, have given me." Then you must set it down before the LORD your God and worship before him.
11 You will celebrate all the good things that the LORD your God has given you and your family, along with the Levites and the resident foreigners among you.
12 When you finish tithing all your income in the third year (the year of tithing), you must give it to the Levites, the resident foreigners, the orphans, and the widows so that they may eat to their satisfaction in your villages.
13 Then you shall say before the LORD your God, "I have removed the sacred offering from my house and given it to the Levites, the resident foreigners, the orphans, and the widows just as you have commanded me. I have not violated or forgotten your commandments.
14 I have not eaten anything when I was in mourning, or removed any of it while ceremonially unclean, or offered any of it to the dead; I have obeyed you and have done everything you have commanded me.
15 Look down from your holy dwelling place in heaven and bless your people Israel and the land you have given us, just as you promised our ancestors� a land flowing with milk and honey."
16 Today the LORD your God is commanding you to keep these statutes and ordinances, something you must do with all your heart and soul.
17 Today you have declared the LORD to be your God, and that you will walk in his ways, keep his statutes, commandments, and ordinances, and obey him.
18 And today the LORD has declared you to be his special people (as he already promised you) so you may keep all his commandments.
19 Then he will elevate you above all the nations he has made and you will receive praise, fame, and honor. You will be a people holy to the LORD your God, as he has said.
1 And it shall be, H1961 when H3588 thou art come in H935 unto H413 the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee for an inheritance, H5159 and possessest H3423 it , and dwellest H3427 therein;
2 That thou shalt take H3947 of the first H4480 H7225 of all H3605 the fruit H6529 of the earth, H127 which H834 thou shalt bring H935 of thy land H4480 H776 that H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee , and shalt put H7760 it in a basket, H2935 and shalt go H1980 unto H413 the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall choose H977 to place H7931 his name H8034 there. H8033
3 And thou shalt go H935 unto H413 the priest H3548 that H834 shall be H1961 in those H1992 days, H3117 and say H559 unto H413 him , I profess H5046 this day H3117 unto the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 that H3588 I am come H935 unto H413 the country H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 swore H7650 unto our fathers H1 for to give H5414 us.
4 And the priest H3548 shall take H3947 the basket H2935 out of thine hand H4480 H3027 , and set it down H5117 before H6440 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 thy God. H430
5 And thou shalt speak H6030 and say H559 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 A Syrian H761 ready to perish H6 was my father, H1 and he went down H3381 into Egypt, H4714 and sojourned H1481 there H8033 with a few H4692 H4592 , and became H1961 there H8033 a nation, H1471 great, H1419 mighty, H6099 and populous: H7227

7 And when we cried H6817 unto H413 the LORD H3068 God H430 of our fathers, H1 the LORD H3068 heard H8085 H853 our voice, H6963 and looked on H7200 H853 our affliction, H6040 and our labor, H5999 and our oppression: H3906
8 And the LORD H3068 brought us forth H3318 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 with a mighty H2389 hand, H3027 and with an outstretched H5186 arm, H2220 and with great H1419 terribleness, H4172 and with signs, H226 and with wonders: H4159
9 And he hath brought H935 us into H413 this H2088 place, H4725 and hath given H5414 us H853 this H2063 land, H776 even a land H776 that floweth H2100 with milk H2461 and honey. H1706
10 And now, H6258 behold, H2009 I have brought H935 H853 the firstfruits H7225 H6529 of the land, H127 which H834 thou , O LORD, H3068 hast given H5414 me . And thou shalt set H5117 it before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 and worship H7812 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God: H430
11 And thou shalt rejoice H8055 in every H3605 good H2896 thing which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath given H5414 unto thee , and unto thine house, H1004 thou, H859 and the Levite, H3881 and the stranger H1616 that H834 is among H7130 you.
12 When H3588 thou hast made an end H3615 of tithing H6237 H853 all H3605 the tithes H4643 of thine increase H8393 the third H7992 year, H8141 which is the year H8141 of tithing, H4643 and hast given H5414 it unto the Levite, H3881 the stranger, H1616 the fatherless, H3490 and the widow, H490 that they may eat H398 within thy gates, H8179 and be filled; H7646
13 Then thou shalt say H559 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 I have brought away H1197 the hallowed things H6944 out of H4480 mine house, H1004 and also H1571 have given H5414 them unto the Levite, H3881 and unto the stranger, H1616 to the fatherless, H3490 and to the widow, H490 according to all H3605 thy commandments H4687 which H834 thou hast commanded H6680 me : I have not H3808 transgressed H5674 thy commandments H4480 H4687 , neither H3808 have I forgotten H7911 them :
14 I have not H3808 eaten H398 thereof H4480 in my mourning, H205 neither H3808 have I taken away H1197 aught thereof H4480 for any unclean H2931 use , nor H3808 given H5414 aught thereof H4480 for the dead: H4191 but I have hearkened H8085 to the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 my God, H430 and have done H6213 according to all H3605 that H834 thou hast commanded H6680 me.
15 Look down H8259 from thy holy H6944 habitation H4480 H4583 , from H4480 heaven, H8064 and bless H1288 H853 thy people H5971 H853 Israel, H3478 and the land H127 which H834 thou hast given H5414 us, as H834 thou sworest H7650 unto our fathers, H1 a land H776 that floweth H2100 with milk H2461 and honey. H1706
