Nehemiah 10:35-37

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁵ We will also agree to bring the first crops from our land each year and the first fruits from our trees. We will bring these to the Lord's temple. ³⁶ We will also bring our firstborn sons, as well as the first babies that our cows, sheep and goats give birth to. We will bring them to the priests who serve our God in the temple. That is what God's Law teaches us to do. ³⁷ We will also bring the first of everything that is ready for us to eat. That includes flour, fruit, wine, olive oil and other special offerings. We will bring them all to the priests and they will store them in the rooms of the temple. We will give tithes of the crops that grow on our land to the Levites. They receive the tithes that belong to them in each of the towns where we work.
