DEUTERONOMY 26:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then thou shalt say before the Lord thy 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 thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them:”
Then you shall declare before the LORD your God: 'I have removed the sacred portion from my house, and I have given it to the Levites, the resident aliens, the orphans, and the widows, in accordance with your entire commandment that you commanded me; I have neither transgressed nor forgotten any of your commandments' — the declaration of integrity (asham lo avrati al mitzvotekha) claims perfect obedience. The worshipper presents himself as covenant-faithful, having given the tithe according to law.
