1599 Geneva Bible
36 And the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is [a]written in the Law, and the firstborn of our bullocks, and of our sheep, to bring it into the house of our God, unto the Priests that minister in the house of our God,
37 And that we should bring the firstfruit of our dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of every tree, of wine and of oil, unto the Priests, to the chambers of the house of our God: and the tithes of our land unto the Levites, that the Levites might have the tithes in all the cities of our [b]travail.
38 And the Priest, the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes, and the Levites shall (A)bring up the tenth part of the tithes unto the house of our God, unto the chambers of the treasure house.
