They shall not appear before Yahweh empty. 17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to Yahweh your God’s blessing which he has given you.

16 “All your males are to appear three times a year(D) before the Lord your God in the place he chooses: at the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Shelters. No one is to appear before the Lord empty-handed.(E) 17 Everyone must appear with a gift suited to his means, according to the blessing the Lord your God has given you.
