22 “You ashall surely tithe all the produce from 1what you sow, which comes out of the field every year.

23 “You shall eat in the presence of the Lord your God, aat the place where He chooses to establish His name, the tithe of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and your flock, so that you may blearn to fear the Lord your God always.

24 “If the 1distance is so great for you that you are not able to 2bring the tithe, since the place where the Lord your God chooses ato set His name is too far away from you when the Lord your God blesses you,

25 then you shall 1exchange it for money, and bind the money in your hand and go to the place which the Lord your God chooses.

26 “You may spend the money for whatever your 1heart desires: for oxen, or sheep, or wine, or strong drink, or whatever your 1heart 2desires; and athere you shall eat in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice, you and your household.

27 “Also you shall not neglect athe Levite who is in your 1town, bfor he has no portion or inheritance among you.

28 “aAt the end of every third year you shall bring out all the tithe of your produce in that year, and shall deposit it in your 1town.

29 “The Levite, abecause he has no portion or inheritance among you, and bthe alien, the 1orphan and the widow who are in your 2town, shall come and ceat and be satisfied, in order that dthe Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
