1 Once you have entered the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, and you take possession of it and are settled there,
2 take some of the early produce of the fertile ground that you have harvested from the land the Lord your God is giving you, and put it in a basket. Then go to the location the Lord your God selects for his name to reside.
3 Go to the priest who is in office at that time and say to him: "I am declaring right now before the Lord my God that I have indeed arrived in the land the Lord swore to our ancestors to give us."
4 The priest will then take the basket from you and place it before the Lord your God’s altar.
