Additionally, we will bring a tithe of our land to the Levites, for they collect the tithes in all the towns where we work. 39 A priest, a descendant of Aaron, will accompany the Levites when they collect the tithes, and they will bring a tenth of the collected tithes to the storerooms of the house of our God, to the treasury.

Your clothes did not wear out on you, and your sandals did not wear out on your feet. 5 You did not eat bread or drink wine or strong drink, so that you might know that I am the LORD your God. 6 When you came to this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out to fight against us, but we defeated them. 7 We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh. 8 Therefore, keep the words of this covenant and do them, so that you may prosper in all that you do. 9 All of you are standing today before the LORD your God—your leaders, your tribes, your elders, your officers, every man of Israel. 10 Your children, your wives, and the resident foreigner who lives among your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water. 11 You are entering into the covenant of the LORD your God and His oath, which the LORD your God is making with you today. 12 He is confirming you today as His people, and He will be your God, just as He promised you and swore to your ancestors—Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 13 It is not with you alone that I am making this covenant and this oath. 14 But also with those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God and with those who are not here with us today. 15 For you know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we passed through the nations you encountered on the way.
