Exodus 23:15

15 aYou shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. As I commanded you, you shall eat unleavened bread for seven days at the appointed time in the month of bAbib, for in it you came out of Egypt. cNone shall appear before me empty-handed.

Exodus 34:20

20The dfirstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, or if you will not redeem it you shall break its neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And enone shall appear before me empty-handed.

1 Chronicles 29:3-9

3Moreover, in addition to all that I have provided for the holy house, I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, and because of my devotion to the house of my God I give it to the house of my God: 4 f3,000 talents
A  talent was about 75 pounds or 34 kilograms
of gold, of the gold of hOphir, and 7,000 talents of refined silver, for overlaying the walls of the house,
Septuagint; Hebrew houses
5and for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself
Or ordaining himself; Hebrew filling his hand
today to the Lord?”

6Then kthe leaders of fathers’ houses made their freewill offerings, as did also the leaders of the tribes, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and lthe officers over the king’s work. 7They gave for the service of the house of God 5,000 talents and 10,000 mdarics
A  daric was a coin weighing about 1/4 ounce or 8.5 grams
of gold, 10,000 talents of silver, 18,000 talents of bronze and 100,000 talents of iron.
8And whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the Lord, in the care of oJehiel the Gershonite. 9Then the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a pwhole heart they had offered freely to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.

1 Chronicles 29:14-17

14“But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you. 15 qFor we are strangers before you and sojourners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are rlike a shadow, and there is no abiding.
Septuagint, Vulgate; Hebrew hope, or prospect
16O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a house for your holy name comes from your hand and is all your own. 17I know, my God, tthat you test the heart and uhave pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you.

Psalms 96:8

8Ascribe to the Lord vthe glory due his name;
bring wan offering, and xcome into his courts!

Proverbs 3:9-10

9 Honor the Lord with your wealth
and with ythe firstfruits of all your produce;
10then your zbarns will be filled with plenty,
and your vats will be bursting with wine.

Isaiah 23:18

18Her merchandise and her wages will be holy to the Lord. It will not be stored or hoarded, but her merchandise will supply abundant food and fine clothing for those who dwell before the Lord.
