Deuteronomy 26:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 [a]Then shalt thou take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, and bring it out of the land that the Lord thy God giveth thee, and put it in a basket, and go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, to [b]place his name there.
3 And thou shalt come unto the Priest, that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I acknowledge 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.
4 Then the Priest shall take the basket out of thine hand, and set it down before the altar of the Lord thy God.
