Deuteronomy 16:16-18

Tree of Life Version

¹⁶ Three times a year all your males are to appear before Adonai your God in the place He chooses—at the Feast of Matzot, the Feast of Shavuot, and the Feast of Sukkot. No one should appear before Adonai empty-handed— ¹⁷ the gift of each man’s hand according to the blessing Adonai your God has given you.
