Didache

Chapter 13

  1. 1 But every true prophet who wishes to settle among you is "worthy of his food."
  2. 2 Likewise a true teacher is himself worthy, like the workman, of his food.
  3. 3 Therefore thou shalt take the firstfruit of the produce of the winepress and of the threshing-floor and of oxen and sheep, and shalt give them as the firstfruits to the prophets, for they are your high priests.
  4. 4 But if you have not a prophet, give to the poor.
  5. 5 If thou makest bread, take the firstfruits, and give it according to the commandment.
  6. 6 Likewise when thou openest a jar of wine or oil, give the firstfruits to the prophets.
  7. 7 Of money also and clothes, and of all your possessions, take the firstfruits, as it seem best to you, and give according to the commandment.
