Deuteronomy 14:22-27

22Thou shalt trulyH6237 titheH6237 all the increaseH8393 of thy seedH2233, that the fieldH7704 bringeth forthH3318 yearH8141 by yearH8141.

23And thou shalt eatH398 beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, in the placeH4725 which he shall chooseH977 to placeH7931 his nameH8034 there, the titheH4643 of thy grainH1715, of thy wineH8492, and of thine oilH3323, and the firstlingsH1062 of thy herdsH1241 and of thy flocksH6629; that thou mayest learnH3925 to fearH3372 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 alwaysH3117.

24And if the wayH1870 be too longH7235 for thee, so thatH3588 thou art not ableH3201 to carryH5375 it; or if the placeH4725 be too farH7368 from thee, which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977 to setH7760 his nameH8034 there, when YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 hath blessedH1288 thee:

25Then shalt thou turnH5414 it into moneyH3701, and bind upH6696 the moneyH3701 in thine handH3027, and shalt goH1980 unto the placeH4725 which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 shall chooseH977:

26And thou shalt bestowH5414 that moneyH3701 for whatsoever thy soulH5315 desiresH183, for oxenH1241, or for sheepH6629, or for wineH3196, or for strong drinkH7941, or for whatsoever thy soulH5315 desirethH7592: and thou shalt eatH398 there beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, and thou shalt rejoiceH8055, thou, and thine householdH1004,1

27And the LeviteH3881 that is within thy gatesH8179; thou shalt not forsakeH5800 him; for he hath no partH2506 nor inheritanceH5159 with thee.
