Nehemiah 10:31-33
New King James Version
31 (A)if the peoples of the land brought [a]wares or any grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we would not buy it from them on the Sabbath, or on a holy day; and we would forego the (B)seventh year’s produce and the (C)exacting[b] of every debt.
32 Also we made ordinances for ourselves, to exact from ourselves yearly (D)one-third of a shekel for the service of the house of our God: 33 for (E)the showbread, for the regular grain offering, for the (F)regular burnt offering of the Sabbaths, the New Moons, and the set feasts; for the holy things, for the sin offerings to make atonement for Israel, and all the work of the house of our God.
