Deuteronomy 12:17-19
12:17 You will not be allowed to eat in your villages your tithe of grain, new wine, olive oil, the firstborn of your herd and flock, any votive offerings you have vowed, or your freewill and personal offerings.
12:18 Only in the presence of the
Lord your God may you eat these, in the place he
chooses. This applies to you, your son, your daughter, your male and female servants, and the Levites
in your villages. In that place you will rejoice before the
Lord your God in all the output of your labor.
12:19 Be careful not to overlook the Levites as long as you live in the land.

Proverbs 14:21
14:21 The one who despises his neighbor sins,
but whoever is kind to the needy is blessed.
Philippians 4:18-19

in Christ Jesus.
