Deuteronomy 14:26-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

26. You may then exchange the money for whatever you desire, oxen or sheep, wine or beer, or anything else you want, and there in the presence of the Lord, your God, you shall consume it and rejoice, you and your household together.

27. But do not neglect the Levite within your gates, for he has no hereditary portion with you.

28. At the end of every third year you shall bring out all the tithes of your produce for that year and deposit them within your own communities,

29. that the Levite who has no hereditary portion with you, and also the resident alien, the orphan and the widow within your gates, may come and eat and be satisfied; so that the Lord, your God, may bless you in all that you undertake.
