Deuteronomy 26:2-4

Contemporary English Version

^2 (A) and plant crops. And when you begin harvesting each of your crops, the very first things you pick must be put in a basket. Take them to the place where the Lord your God chooses to be worshiped, ³ and tell the priest, “Long ago the Lord our God promised our ancestors that he would give us this land. And today, I thank him for keeping his promise and giving me a share of the land.”

⁴ The priest will take the basket and set it in front of the Lord's altar.
