Nehemiah 10:30-33

30We will not allow our daughters to marry the inhabitants of the land or allow their daughters to marry our sons.

31If the inhabitants of the land bring merchandise or grain to sell on the day of rest—a holy day, we won’t buy anything from them on the day of rest or any other holy day. During the seventh year, we won’t plant the fields or collect any debts.

32Also, we take upon ourselves the obligation to give an eighth of an ounce of silver every year for worship in our God’s temple:

33for rows of the bread of the presence, and for the daily grain offerings and daily burnt offerings, on the weekly days of rest—holy days, and on the New Moon Festivals, and at the appointed annual festivals, for the holy gifts and offerings for sin that make peace with God for Israel, and for all the other work in the temple of our God.
