Deuteronomy
25:19-26:10 – When the Lord your God gives you rest from all the enemies around
you in the land he is giving you to possess as an inheritance, you shall blot
out the name of Amalek from under heaven. Do not forget! When you have
entered the land the Lord your
God is giving you as an inheritance and have taken possession of it and settled
in it, take some of the firstfruits of all that you produce from the
soil of the land the Lord your
God is giving you and put them in a basket. Then go to the place the Lord your God will choose as a
dwelling for his Name and say to the priest in office at the time, “I
declare today to the Lord your
God that I have come to the land the Lord swore
to our ancestors to give us.” The priest shall take the basket from your hands
and set it down in front of the altar of the Lord your God. Then you shall declare before the Lord your God: “My father was a
wandering Aramean, and he went down into Egypt with a few people and
lived there and became a great nation, powerful and numerous. But the
Egyptians mistreated us and made us suffer, subjecting us to harsh labor. Then
we cried out to the Lord, the God
of our ancestors, and the Lord heard
our voice and saw our misery, toil and oppression. So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with
a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with signs
and wonders. He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing
with milk and honey; and now I bring the firstfruits of the soil that you, Lord, have given me.” Place the basket
before the Lord your God
and bow down before him.
