Nehemiah 10:35-39
35and that they might bring the first fruits of our ground and 1the first fruits of all the fruit of every tree to the house of the Lord annually,
36and 2bring to the house of our God the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, and the firstborn of our herds and our flocks as it is written in the law, for the priests who are ministering in the house of our God.
373We will also bring the first of our 4dough, our contributions, the fruit of every tree, the new wine and the oil 5to the priests at the chambers of the house of our God, and the 6tithe of our ground to the Levites, for the Levites are they who receive the tithes in all the rural towns.
387The priest, the son of Aaron, shall be with the Levites when the Levites receive tithes, and the Levites shall bring up the tenth of the tithes to the house of our God, to the chambers of 8the storehouse.
39For the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi shall bring the 9contribution of the grain, the new wine and the oil to the chambers; there are the utensils of the sanctuary, the priests who are ministering, the gatekeepers and the singers. Thus 10we will not 11neglect the house of our God.
