Deuteronomy 26:13
New English Translation

13 Then you shall say before the Lord your God, “I have removed the sacred offering[a] from my house and given it to the Levites, the resident foreigners, the orphans, and the widows just as you have commanded me.[b] I have not violated or forgotten your commandments.

Footnotes

  1. Deuteronomy 26:13 tn Heb “the sacred thing.” The term הַקֹּדֶשׁ (haqqodesh) likely refers to an offering normally set apart for the Lord but, as a third-year tithe, given on this occasion to people in need. Sometimes this is translated as “the sacred portion” (cf. NASB, NIV, NRSV), but that could sound to a modern reader as if a part of the house were being removed and given away.
  2. Deuteronomy 26:13 tn Heb “according to all your commandment that you commanded me.” This has been simplified in the translation for stylistic reasons.
