Leviticus 19:23-25
Common English Bible
23 When you enter the land and plant any fruit tree, you must consider its fruit off-limits.[a] For three years it will be off-limits to you;[b] it must not be eaten. 24 In the fourth year, all of the tree’s fruit will be holy, a celebration for the Lord. 25 In the fifth year you can eat the fruit. This is so as to increase its produce for you; I am the Lord your God.
