1 Maccabees 10:28-30

Common English Bible

²⁸ We will grant you many exemptions and give you gifts.

²⁹ I now free you and excuse all the Jews from payment of tribute as well as salt and royal taxes. ³⁰ Instead of collecting a third of the grain and half of the fruit of the trees as I should, I release you from payment from now on. I will not collect them from the land of Judah or from the three districts added to it from Samaria and Galilee, from this day on and for all time.
