²⁸ At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes^(A) of that year’s produce and store it in your towns,^(B)

²⁹ so that the Levites (who have no allotment^(A) or inheritance^(B) of their own) and the foreigners,^(C) the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied,^(D) and so that the Lord your God may bless^(E) you in all the work of your hands.

¹² When you have finished setting aside a tenth^(A) of all your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe,^(B) you shall give it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied.

¹³ Then say to the Lord your God: “I have removed from my house the sacred portion and have given it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, according to all you commanded. I have not turned aside from your commands nor have I forgotten any of them.^(A)
