²that you shall take some of ^athe first of all the fruit of the ground which you bring in from your land that Yahweh your God gives you, and you shall put it in a basket and ^bgo to the place where Yahweh your God chooses for His name to dwell.

³“And you shall go to the priest who is in office in those days and say to him, ‘I declare this day to Yahweh ¹my God that I have entered the land which Yahweh swore to our fathers to give us.’

⁴“Then the priest shall take the basket from your hand and set it down before the altar of Yahweh your God.

⁵“And you shall answer and say before Yahweh your God, ‘^aMy father was a ¹wandering Aramean, and he went down to Egypt and ²sojourned there, ^bfew in number; but there he became a ^cgreat, mighty, and populous nation.

⁶‘And the ^aEgyptians treated us harshly and afflicted us and imposed hard slave labor on us.

⁷‘Then ^awe cried out to Yahweh, the God of our fathers, and Yahweh heard our voice and saw our affliction and our toil and our oppression;

^8aand Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a strong hand and an outstretched arm and with great terror and with signs and wonders;

⁹and He has brought us to this place and has given us this land, ^aa land flowing with milk and honey.

¹⁰‘So now behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground ^awhich You, O Yahweh, have given me.’ And you shall set it down before Yahweh your God and worship before Yahweh your God;

¹¹and you and ^athe Levite and the sojourner who is among you shall ^bbe glad in all the good which Yahweh your God has given you and your household.
