Deuteronomy 14:24-29 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

24. If the place of worship is too far from your home for you to carry there the tithe of the produce that the Lord has blessed you with, then do this:

25. Sell your produce and take the money with you to the one place of worship.

26. Spend it on whatever you want — beef, lamb, wine, beer — and there, in the presence of the Lord your God, you and your families are to eat and enjoy yourselves.

27. “Do not neglect the Levites who live in your towns; they have no property of their own.

28. At the end of every third year bring the tithe of all your crops and store it in your towns.

29. This food is for the Levites, since they own no property, and for the foreigners, orphans, and widows who live in your towns. They are to come and get all they need. Do this, and the Lord your God will bless you in everything you do.
