And thou shalt go unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto the LORD thy God, that I am come unto the country which the LORD sware unto our fathers for to give us.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 26 of Deuteronomy. The offering of firstfruits is to be presented upon entering the promised land together with a historical confession. The Israelite recalls that his ancestor was a wandering Aramean, that his descendants went down to Egypt, were oppressed, and were finally delivered by God. The agricultural offering thus becomes a confession that the land received is the result of divine action.

und sollst zu dem Priester kommen, der zu der Zeit da ist, und zu ihm sagen: Ich bekenne heute dem HERRN, deinem Gott, daß ich gekommen bin in das Land, das der HERR unsern Vätern geschworen hat uns zu geben.
Y llegarás al sacerdote que fuere en aquellos días, y le dirás: Reconozco hoy a Jehová tu Dios que he entrado en la tierra que juró Jehová a nuestros padres que nos había de dar.
Te presentarás al sacerdote que haya en aquellos días y le dirás: “Declaro hoy a Jehová tu Dios que he entrado en la tierra que Jehová juró a nuestros antepasados que nos daría”.
Tu te présenteras au sacrificateur alors en fonctions, et tu lui diras: Je déclare aujourd'hui à l'Eternel, ton Dieu, que je suis entré dans le pays que l'Eternel a juré à nos pères de nous donner.
E vieni al Sacerdote che sarà in que’ giorni, e digli: Io fo oggi pubblica riconoscenza al Signore Iddio tuo di ciò che io sono entrato nel paese, del quale il Signore avea giurato a’ nostri padri ch’egli ce lo darebbe.
E irás ao sacerdote, que houver naqueles dias, e dir-lhe-ás: Hoje declaro perante o SENHOR teu Deus que entrei na terra que o SENHOR jurou a nossos pais dar-nos.
