And the Egyptians evil pleaded us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
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 when we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:
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 the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
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 he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, even a land that flows with milk and honey.
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 now, behold, I have brought the first-fruits of the land, which you, O LORD, have given me. And you shall set it before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God:
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.
And you shall rejoice in every good thing which the LORD your God has given unto you, and unto your house, you, and the Levite, and the stranger that is among you.

When you have made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled;
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].
Then you shall say before the LORD your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandments which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed your commandments, neither have I 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.
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away ought thereof for any unclean use, nor given ought thereof for the dead: but I have hearkened to the voice of the LORD my God, and have done according to all that you have commanded me.
