Obligations of the Document |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:28 |
|
Now the rest of the people, the priests, the
Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the temple servants and all those who had
separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives,
their sons and their daughters, all those who had knowledge and understanding,
|
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:29 |
|
are joining with their kinsmen, their nobles,
and are taking on themselves a curse and an oath to walk in God's law, which was
given through Moses, God's servant, and to keep and to observe all the commandments
of GOD our Lord, and His ordinances and His statutes; |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:30 |
|
and that we will not give our daughters to the
peoples of the land or take their daughters for our sons. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:31 |
|
As for the peoples of the land who bring wares
or any grain on the sabbath day to sell, we will not buy from them on the sabbath
or a holy day; and we will forego the crops the seventh year and the exaction
of every debt. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:32 |
|
We also placed ourselves under obligation to
contribute yearly one third of a shekel for the service of the house of our God: |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:33 |
|
for the showbread, for the continual grain offering,
for the continual burnt offering, the sabbaths, the new moon, for the appointed
times, for the holy things and for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel,
and all the work of the house of our God. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:34 |
|
Likewise we cast lots for the supply of wood
among the priests, the Levites and the people so that they might bring it to the
house of our God, according to our fathers' households, at fixed times annually,
to burn on the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law; |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:35 |
|
and that they might bring the first fruits of
our ground and the first fruits of all the fruit of every tree to the house of
the LORD annually, |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:36 |
|
and bring to the house of our God the firstborn
of our sons and of our cattle, and the firstborn of our herds and our flocks as
it is written in the law, for the priests who are ministering in the house of
our God. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:37 |
|
We will also bring the first of our dough, our
contributions, the fruit of every tree, the new wine and the oil to the priests
at the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithe of our ground to the Levites,
for the Levites are they who receive the tithes in all the rural towns. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:38 |
|
The priest, the son of Aaron, shall be with
the Levites when the Levites receive tithes, and the Levites shall bring up the
tenth of the tithes to the house of our God, to the chambers of the storehouse. |
|
|
|
|
| Nehemiah 10:39 |
|
For the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi
shall bring the contribution of the grain, the new wine and the oil to the chambers;
there are the utensils of the sanctuary, the priests who are ministering, the
gatekeepers and the singers. Thus we will not neglect the house of our God. |
