Nehemiah 10:34-36

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁴ Each year we will throw dice to decide when different families must bring wood to the temple of our God. The priests, the Levites and the other people must do this. The wood will burn sacrifices on the altar of the Lord our God. We will do this in the way that the Law of the Lord our God teaches. ³⁵ We will also agree to bring the first crops from our land each year and the first fruits from our trees. We will bring these to the Lord's temple. ³⁶ We will also bring our firstborn sons, as well as the first babies that our cows, sheep and goats give birth to. We will bring them to the priests who serve our God in the temple. That is what God's Law teaches us to do.
