8 Therefore the Lord brought us out of Egypt with tremendous strength and power, as well as with great awe-inspiring signs and wonders.
9 Then he brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 So now, look! I have brought the first of the ground’s produce that you, Lord, have given me.” Then you must set it down before the Lord your God and worship before him.
11 You will celebrate all the good things that the Lord your God has given you and your family, along with the Levites and the resident foreigners among you.
