# General Information:
Yahweh continues giving Ezekiel his message to the house of Israel.
# this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration
Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 5:11](../05/11.md). AT: "this is what the Lord Yahweh has declared" or "this is what I, the Lord Yahweh, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])
# to require your offerings
"to require you to bring your offerings"
# the firstfruits of your tribute
Yahweh speaks of the best things among all that they give to him as if they were "firstfruits." AT: "the best of your contributions" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# your holy things
"the offerings that you set aside to give to me"
# I will accept you like fragrant incense
