1. And it shall be, when thou come in unto the land which יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim giveth thee an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein;

2. That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou shalt bring of thy land that יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim giveth thee, and shalt put in a basket, and shalt go unto the place which יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim shall choose to place his name there.

3. And thou shalt go unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim, that I am come unto the country which יְהוָ֥ה sware unto our fathers for to give us.

4. And the priest shall take the basket out of thine hand, and set it down before the altar of יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim.

5. And thou shalt speak and say before יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim, A Syrian ready to perish my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:

6. And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:

7. And when we cried unto יְהוָ֥ה Elohim of our fathers, יְהוָ֥ה heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:

8. And יְהוָ֥ה 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:

9. And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

10. And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land, which thou, O יְהוָ֥ה, hast given me. And thou shalt set it before יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim, and worship before יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim:

11. And thou shalt rejoice in every good which יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim hath given unto thee, and unto thine house, thou, and the Levite, and the stranger that among you.

12. When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, the year of tithing, and hast given unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

13. Then thou shalt say before יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim, I have brought away the hallowed things out of 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:

14. I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away thereof for unclean, nor given thereof for the dead: I have hearkened to the voice of יְהוָ֥ה my Elohim, have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.

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.

16. This day יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim 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.

17. Thou hast avouched יְהוָ֥ה this day to be thy Elohim, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his voice:

18. And יְהוָ֥ה hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that shouldest keep all his commandments;

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 יְהוָ֥ה thy Elohim, as he hath spoken.
