Leviticus 19:23-26
And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as their uncircumcision: three years shall they be as uncircumcised unto you; it shall not be eaten.But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy, for giving praise unto Jehovah.And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am Jehovah your God.Ye shall not eat anything with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantments, nor practise augury.

2 Chronicles 31 3-2 Chronicles 31 10
He appointed also the king’s portion of his substance for the burnt- offerings, to wit, for the morning and evening burnt- offerings, and the burnt- offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Jehovah.And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first- fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.And the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated unto Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.And Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, Since the people began to bring the oblations into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Jehovah hath blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.

Malachi 3:8-12
Will a man rob God? yet ye rob me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.Ye are cursed with the curse; for ye rob me, even this whole nation.Bring ye the whole tithe into the store- house, that there may be food in my house, and prove me now herewith, saith Jehovah of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before the time in the field, saith Jehovah of hosts.And all nations shall call you happy; for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith Jehovah of hosts.
