1 You will enter the land the Lord your God is giving you as your own. You will take it over. You will settle down in it.
2 When you do, get some of the first share of everything your soil produces. Put it in a basket. It's from the land the Lord your God is giving you. Take your gifts and go to the special place he will choose. He will put his Name there.
3 Speak to the priest who is in office at that time. Tell him, "I announce today to the Lord your God that I have come to this land. It's the land he promised with an oath to our fathers to give us."
4 The priest will take the basket from you. He'll set it down in front of the altar of the Lord your God.
