Nehemiah 10:37-39
1599 Geneva Bible
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 [a]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.
39 For the children of Israel, and the children of Levi shall bring up the offering of the corn, of the wine, and of the oil, unto the chambers: and there shall be the vessels of the Sanctuary, and the Priests that minister, and the porters, and the singers, and [b]we will not forsake the house of our God.
