¹⁰ Say to the children of Israel, When you have come to the land which I will give you, and have got in the grain from its fields, take some of the first-fruits of the grain to the priest;

²⁶ And at the time of the first-fruits, when you give an offering of new meal to the Lord at your feast of weeks, there is to be a holy meeting: you may do no field-work:

¹³ With his peace-offering let him give cakes of leavened bread, as a praise-offering.

²⁶ Take the first-fruits of your land as an offering to the house of the Lord your God. Let not the young goat be cooked in its mother's milk

²² And you are to keep the feast of weeks when you get in the first-fruits of the grain, and the feast at the turn of the year when you take in the produce of your fields.

¹⁹ The best of the first-fruits of your land are to be taken into the house of the Lord your God. The young goat is not to be cooked in its mother's milk.

⁴ These are they who have not made themselves unclean with women; for they are virgins. These are they who go after the Lamb wherever he goes. These were taken from among men to be the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

²³ And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.

³³ Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.

⁹ Give honour to the Lord with your wealth, and with the first-fruits of all your increase:

¹⁰ So your store-houses will be full of grain, and your vessels overflowing with new wine.

¹ Now when you have come into the land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage, and you have made it yours and are living in it;

² You are to take a part of the first-fruits of the earth, which you get from the land which the Lord your God is giving you, and put it in a basket, and go to the place marked out by the Lord your God, as the resting-place of his name.

¹⁹ Then, when you take for your food the produce of the land, you are to give an offering lifted up before the Lord.

²⁰ Of the first of your rough meal you are to give a cake for a lifted offering, lifting it up before the Lord as the offering of the grain-floor is lifted up.

²¹ From generation to generation you are to give to the Lord a lifted offering from the first of your rough meal.

¹⁷ And the Lord said to Moses,

¹² You may give them as an offering of first-fruits to the Lord, but they are not to go up as a sweet smell on the altar.

¹⁶ And the feast of the grain-cutting, the first-fruits of your planted fields: and the feast at the start of the year, when you have got in all the fruit from your fields.

²⁹ Do not keep back your offerings from the wealth of your grain and your vines. The first of your sons you are to give to me.
