Deuteronomy 14:22-29 ▼

22 You certainly tithe all the increase of your seed which the field is bringing forth year by year;

23 and you have eaten before your God YHWH, in the place where He chooses to cause His Name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstlings of your herd, and of your flock, so that you learn to fear your God YHWH [for] all the days.

24 And when the way is too much for you, that you are not able to carry it—when the place is too far off from you which your God YHWH chooses to put His Name there, when your God YHWH blesses you—

25 then you have given [it] in money, and have bound up the money in your hand, and gone to the place on which your God YHWH fixes;

26 and you have given the money for anything which your soul desires, for oxen, and for sheep, and for wine, and for strong drink, and for anything which your soul asks for, and you have eaten before your God YHWH there, and you have rejoiced, you and your house.

27 As for the Levite who [is] within your gates, you do not forsake him, for he has no portion and inheritance with you.

28 At the end of three years you bring out all the tithe of your increase in that year, and have placed [it] within your gates;

29 and the Levite has come in—for he has no part and inheritance with you—and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who [are] within your gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that your God YHWH blesses you in all the work of your hand which you do.”
