Deutéronome 26

26 Lorsque tu seras entré dans le pays que l'Éternel, ton Dieu, te donne pour héritage, lorsque tu le posséderas et y seras établi,
2 tu prendras des prémices de tous les fruits que tu retireras du sol dans le pays que l'Éternel, ton Dieu, te donne, tu les mettras dans une corbeille, et tu iras au lieu que choisira l'Éternel, ton Dieu, pour y faire résider son nom.
3 Tu te présenteras au sacrificateur alors en fonctions, et tu lui diras: Je déclare aujourd'hui à l'Éternel, ton Dieu, que je suis entré dans le pays que l'Éternel a juré à nos pères de nous donner.
4 Le sacrificateur recevra la corbeille de ta main, et la déposera devant l'autel de l'Éternel, ton Dieu.
5 Tu prendras encore la parole, et tu diras devant l'Éternel, ton Dieu: Mon père était un Araméen nomade; il descendit en Égypte avec peu de gens, et il y fixa son séjour; là, il devint une nation grande, puissante et nombreuse.
6 Les Égyptiens nous maltraitèrent et nous opprimèrent, et ils nous soumirent à une dure servitude.
7 Nous criâmes à l'Éternel, le Dieu de nos pères. L'Éternel entendit notre voix, et il vit notre oppression, nos peines et nos misères.
8 Et l'Éternel nous fit sortir d'Égypte, à main forte et à bras étendu, avec des prodiges de terreur, avec des signes et des miracles.
9 Il nous a conduits dans ce lieu, et il nous a donné ce pays, pays où coulent le lait et le miel.
10 Maintenant voici, j'apporte les prémices des fruits du sol que tu m'as donné, ô Éternel! Tu les déposeras devant l'Éternel, ton Dieu, et tu te prosterneras devant l'Éternel, ton Dieu.
11 Puis tu te réjouiras, avec le Lévite et avec l'étranger qui sera au milieu de toi, pour tous les biens que l'Éternel, ton Dieu, t'a donnés, à toi et à ta maison.
12 Lorsque tu auras achevé de lever toute la dîme de tes produits, la troisième année, l'année de la dîme, tu la donneras au Lévite, à l'étranger, à l'orphelin et à la veuve; et ils mangeront et se rassasieront, dans tes portes.
13 Tu diras devant l'Éternel, ton Dieu: J'ai ôté de ma maison ce qui est consacré, et je l'ai donné au Lévite, à l'étranger, à l'orphelin et à la veuve, selon tous les ordres que tu m'as prescrits; je n'ai transgressé ni oublié aucun de tes commandements.
14 Je n'ai rien mangé de ces choses pendant mon deuil, je n'en ai rien fait disparaître pour un usage impur, et je n'en ai rien donné à l'occasion d'un mort; j'ai obéi à la voix de l'Éternel, mon Dieu, j'ai agi selon tous les ordres que tu m'as prescrits.
15 Regarde de ta demeure sainte, des cieux, et bénis ton peuple d'Israël et le pays que tu nous as donné, comme tu l'avais juré à nos pères, ce pays où coulent le lait et le miel.
16 Aujourd'hui, l'Éternel, ton Dieu, te commande de mettre en pratique ces lois et ces ordonnances; tu les observeras et tu les mettras en pratique de tout ton coeur et de toute ton âme.
17 Aujourd'hui, tu as fait promettre à l'Éternel qu'il sera ton Dieu, afin que tu marches dans ses voies, que tu observes ses lois, ses commandements et ses ordonnances, et que tu obéisses à sa voix.
18 Et aujourd'hui, l'Éternel t'a fait promettre que tu seras un peuple qui lui appartiendra, comme il te l'a dit, et que tu observeras tous ses commandements,
19 afin qu'il te donne sur toutes les nations qu'il a créées la supériorité en gloire, en renom et en magnificence, et afin que tu sois un peuple saint pour l'Éternel, ton Dieu, comme il te l'a dit.

Offerings of Firstfruits and Tithes
26 “And it shall be, when you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, and you possess it and dwell in it, 2 (A)that you shall take some of the first of all the produce of the ground, which you shall bring from your land that the Lord your God is giving you, and put it in a basket and (B)go to the place where the Lord your God chooses to make His name abide. 3 And you shall go to the one who is priest in those days, and say to him, ‘I declare today to the Lord [a]your God that I have come to the country which the Lord swore to our fathers to give us.’
4 “Then the priest shall take the basket out of your hand and set it down before the altar of the Lord your God. 5 And you shall answer and say before the Lord your God: ‘My father was (C)a [b]Syrian, (D)about to perish, and (E)he went down to Egypt and [c]dwelt there, (F)few in number; and there he became a nation, (G)great, mighty, and populous. 6 But the (H)Egyptians mistreated us, afflicted us, and laid hard bondage on us. 7 (I)Then we cried out to the Lord God of our fathers, and the Lord heard our voice and looked on our affliction and our labor and our oppression. 8 So (J)the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm, (K)with great terror and with signs and wonders. 9 He has brought us to this place and has given us this land, (L)“a land flowing with milk and honey”; 10 and now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land which you, O Lord, have given me.’
“Then you shall set it before the Lord your God, and worship before the Lord your God. 11 So (M)you shall rejoice in every good thing which the Lord your God has given to you and your house, you and the Levite and the stranger who is among you.
12 “When you have finished laying aside all the (N)tithe of your increase in the third year—(O)the year of tithing—and have given it to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, so that they may eat within your gates and be filled, 13 then you shall say before the Lord your God: ‘I have removed the [d]holy tithe from my house, and also have given them to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, according to all Your commandments which You have commanded me; I have not transgressed Your commandments, (P)nor have I forgotten them. 14 (Q)I have not eaten any of it [e]when in mourning, nor have I removed any of it [f]for an unclean use, nor given any of it for the dead. I have obeyed the voice of the Lord my God, and have done according to all that You have commanded me. 15 (R)Look down from Your holy [g]habitation, from heaven, and bless Your people Israel and the land which You have given us, just as You swore to our fathers, (S)“a land flowing with milk and honey.” ’
A Special People of God
16 “This day the Lord your God commands you to observe these statutes and judgments; therefore you shall be careful to observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. 17 Today you have (T)proclaimed the Lord to be your God, and that you will walk in His ways and keep His statutes, His commandments, and His judgments, and that you will (U)obey His voice. 18 Also today (V)the Lord has proclaimed you to be His special people, just as He promised you, that you should keep all His commandments, 19 and that He will set you (W)high above all nations which He has made, in praise, in name, and in honor, and that you may be (X)a [h]holy people to the Lord your God, just as He has spoken.”

Firstfruits and Tithes
26 When you have entered the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance and have taken possession of it and settled in it, 2 take some of the firstfruits(A) of all that you produce from the soil of the land the Lord your God is giving you and put them in a basket. Then go to the place the Lord your God will choose as a dwelling for his Name(B) 3 and say to the priest in office at the time, “I declare today to the Lord your God that I have come to the land the Lord swore to our ancestors to give us.” 4 The priest shall take the basket from your hands and set it down in front of the altar of the Lord your God. 5 Then you shall declare before the Lord your God: “My father was a wandering(C) Aramean,(D) and he went down into Egypt with a few people(E) and lived there and became a great nation,(F) powerful and numerous. 6 But the Egyptians mistreated us and made us suffer,(G) subjecting us to harsh labor.(H) 7 Then we cried out to the Lord, the God of our ancestors, and the Lord heard our voice(I) and saw(J) our misery,(K) toil and oppression.(L) 8 So the Lord brought us out of Egypt(M) with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm,(N) with great terror and with signs and wonders.(O) 9 He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey;(P) 10 and now I bring the firstfruits of the soil that you, Lord, have given me.(Q)” Place the basket before the Lord your God and bow down before him. 11 Then you and the Levites(R) and the foreigners residing among you shall rejoice(S) in all the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your household.
12 When you have finished setting aside a tenth(T) of all your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe,(U) you shall give it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied. 13 Then say to the Lord your God: “I have removed from my house the sacred portion and have given it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, according to all you commanded. I have not turned aside from your commands nor have I forgotten any of them.(V) 14 I have not eaten any of the sacred portion while I was in mourning, nor have I removed any of it while I was unclean,(W) nor have I offered any of it to the dead. I have obeyed the Lord my God; I have done everything you commanded me. 15 Look down from heaven,(X) your holy dwelling place, and bless(Y) your people Israel and the land you have given us as you promised on oath to our ancestors, a land flowing with milk and honey.”
Follow the Lord’s Commands
16 The Lord your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul.(Z) 17 You have declared this day that the Lord is your God and that you will walk in obedience to him, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws—that you will listen to him.(AA) 18 And the Lord has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession(AB) as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands. 19 He has declared that he will set you in praise,(AC) fame and honor high above all the nations(AD) he has made and that you will be a people holy(AE) to the Lord your God, as he promised.
