And whanne thou hast entrid in to the lond which thi Lord God schal yyue to thee to welde, and thou hast gete it, and hast dwellid therynne,
2 And you will take some of [the] first of - all [the] fruit of the ground which you will bring in from land your which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you and you will put [it] in the basket and you will go to the place where he will choose Yahweh God your to cause to dwell name his there.

4 And he will take the priest the basket from hand your and he will set down it before [the] altar of Yahweh God your.
And the preest schal take the panyere of thin hond, and schal sette bifor the auter of thi Lord God.
5 And you will answer and you will say before - Yahweh God your [was] an Aramean wandering ancestor my and he went down Egypt towards and he sojourned there men of fewness and he became there a nation great mighty and numerous.
And thou schalt speke in the siyt of thi Lord God, Sirus pursuede my fadir, `which fadir yede doun in to Egipt, and was a pilgrym there in feweste noumbre; and he encreesside in to a greet folk, and strong, and of multitude without noumbre.
6 And they did harm to us the Egyptians and they afflicted us and they put on us labor hard.
And Egipcians turmentiden vs, and pursueden, and puttiden greuouseste birthuns.
7 And we cried out to Yahweh [the] God of ancestors our and he heard Yahweh voice our and he saw affliction our and toil our and oppression our.
And we crieden to the Lord God of oure fadris, which herde vs, and bihelde oure mekenesse, and trauel, and angwischis;
8 And he brought out us Yahweh from Egypt by a hand strong and by an arm outstretched and by terror great and by signs and by wonders.
and he ledde vs out of Egipt in myyti hond, and arm holdun forth, in grete drede, in myraclis, and grete wondris,
9 And he brought us to the place this and he gave to us the land this a land flowing of milk and honey.
and ledde vs in to this place; and yaf to vs a lond flowynge with mylk and hony.
10 And therefore here! I have brought [the] first of [the] fruit of the ground which you have given to me O Yahweh and you will set down it before Yahweh God your and you will bow down before Yahweh God your.
And therfor Y offre now to thee the fyrste fruytis of the fruitis of the lond which the Lord yaf to me. And thou schalt leeue tho in the siyt of thi Lord God. And whanne thi Lord God is worchipid,
11 And you will rejoice in all the good which he has given to you Yahweh God your and to household your you and the Levite and the sojourner who [is] in midst your.
thou schalt ete in alle the goodis whiche thi Lord God yaf to thee and to thin hows, thou, and the dekene, and the comelyng which is with thee.
12 If you will finish to tithe all [the] tithe of produce your in the year third [the] year of the tithe and you will give [it] to the Levite to the sojourner to the fatherless one and to the widow and they will eat in gates your and they will be satisfied.
Whanne thou hast fillid the tithe of alle thi fruytis, in the thridde yeer of tithis, thou schalt yyue to the dekene, and to the comelyng, and to the fadirles, ether modirles child, and to widewe, that thei ete with ynne thi yatis, and be fillid.
13 And you will say before Yahweh God your I have removed the holy thing from the house and also I have given it to the Levite and to the sojourner to the fatherless one and to the widow according to all commandment your which you have commanded me not I have transgressed any of commandments your and not I have forgotten [them].

14 Not I have eaten in mourning my any of it and not I have removed any of it unclean and not I have given any of it to [the] dead I have listened to [the] voice of Yahweh God my I have done according to all that you have commanded me.
Y ete not of tho thingis in my morenyng, nether Y departide tho in ony vnclennesse, nethir Y spendide of tho ony thing in biriyng of deed body, `that is, in makynge feestis therof in biryynge of deed men. Y obeiede to the vois of my Lord God, and Y dide alle thingis as thou comaundidist to me.
15 Look down! from [the] habitation of holiness your from the heavens and bless people your Israel and the land which you have given to us just as you swore to ancestors our a land flowing of milk and honey.
Bihold thou fro thi seyntuarie, fro the hiy dwellyng place of heuene, and blesse thou thi puple Israel, and the lond which thou hast youe to vs, as thou `hast swoore to oure fadris; the lond flowynge with mylk and hony.
