Bostan's favorite verse(s):

Lain's favorite verse(s):

14:7-9

7 For there exists hope for even a tree.
If it gets cut down, it will even sprout again,
And its own twig will not cease to be.
8 If its root grows old in the earth
And in the dust its stump dies,
9 At the scent of water it will sprout
And it will certainly produce a bough like a new plant.

"Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying: (26) "And YOU should speak to the Levites, and YOU must say to them, 'YOU will receive from the sons of Israel the tenth part that i have given to YOU from them for YOUR inheritance, and YOU must contribute form it as a contribution to Jehovah a tenth part of the tenth part."
