又要把你的五穀、新酒、和油的十分之一，並牛群羊群中頭生的，吃在耶和華－你上帝面前，就是他所選擇要立為他名的居所。這樣，你可以學習時常敬畏耶和華－你的上帝。
24 Sotheli whanne the wei is lengere, and the place which thi Lord God chees is fer, and he hath blessid thee, and thou maist not bere alle these thingis to that place,
當耶和華－你上帝賜福與你的時候，耶和華－你上帝所選擇要立為他名的地方若離你太遠，那路也太長，使你不能把這物帶到那裏去，
25 thou schalt sille alle thingis, and schalt turne in to prijs, and thou schalt bere in thin hond, and thou schalt go to the place which thi Lord God chees;
你就可以換成銀子，將銀子包起來，拿在手中，往耶和華－你上帝所要選擇的地方去。

每逢三年的末一年，你要將本年的土產十分之一都取出來，積存在你的城中。
29 And the dekene schal come, whych hath noon other part nether possessioun with thee, and the pilgrym, and the fadirles, ether modirles child, and widue, that ben withynne thi yatis, `schulen come, and schulen ete, and be fillid, that thi Lord God blesse thee, in alle werkis of thin hondis whiche thou schalt do.
在你城裏無分無業的利未人，和你城裏寄居的，並孤兒寡婦，都可以來，吃得飽足。這樣，耶和華－你的上帝必在你手裏所辦的一切事上賜福與你。」
