Deuteronomy 12:5-11
51But you shall seek the Lord at the place which the Lord your God will choose from all your tribes, to establish His name there for His dwelling, and you shall come there. 6You shall bring there your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, 2your tithes, the 3contribution of your hand, your vowed offerings, your 4voluntary offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock. 7There you and your households shall eat before the Lord your God, and 5rejoice in all 6your undertakings in which the Lord your God has blessed you.
8“You shall not do at all what we are doing here today, 7everyone doing whatever is right in his own eyes; 9for you have not as yet come to 8the resting place and the 9inheritance which the Lord your God is giving you. 10When you cross the Jordan and live in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, and 10He gives you rest from all your enemies around you so that you live in security, 1111then it shall come about that the place in which the Lord your God will choose for His name to dwell, there you shall bring everything that I command you: your burnt offerings and your sacrifices, your tithes and the 12contribution of your hand, and all your choice vowed offerings which you will vow to the Lord.
