Nehemiah 10:30-32

New Living Translation

³¹ “We also promise that if the people of the land should bring any merchandise or grain to be sold on the Sabbath or on any other holy day, we will refuse to buy it. Every seventh year we will let our land rest, and we will cancel all debts owed to us.

³² “In addition, we promise to obey the command to pay the annual Temple tax of one-eighth of an ounce of silver^[a] for the care of the Temple of our God.
