²³ “‘When you enter the land and plant any kind of fruit tree, regard its fruit as forbidden.^[a] For three years you are to consider it forbidden^[b]; it must not be eaten. ²⁴ In the fourth year all its fruit will be holy,^(A) an offering of praise to the Lord. ²⁵ But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit. In this way your harvest will be increased. I am the Lord your God.
