4Then the priest will take the basket from your hand and put it down in front of the altar of the Lord your God.
5And these are the words which you will say before the Lord your God: My father was a wandering Aramaean, and he went down with a small number of people into Egypt; there he became a great and strong nation:
6And the Egyptians were cruel to us, crushing us under a hard yoke:
7And our cry went up to the Lord, the God of our fathers, and the Lord's ear was open to the voice of our cry, and his eyes took note of our grief and the crushing weight of our work:
8And the Lord took us out of Egypt with a strong hand and a stretched-out arm, with works of power and signs and wonders:
9And he has been our guide to this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10So now, I have come here with the first of the fruits of the earth which you, O Lord, have given me. Then you will put it down before the Lord your God and give him worship:
