Leviticus 19:23-25

New International Reader's Version

²³ “ ‘When you enter the land, suppose you plant a fruit tree. Then do not eat its fruit for the first three years. The fruit is “unclean.” ²⁴ In the fourth year all the fruit will be holy. Offer it as a way of showing praise to me. ²⁵ But in the fifth year you can eat the fruit. Then you will gather more and more fruit. I am the Lord your God.
