It is talking about the tenth being holy, usiing the analogy of a shepherd's rod, and Jacob's 10th son was Levi.

(In one interpretation, it could be discussing tithing to the Lord: every 10th sheep is his.)

Tradition states that it refers to the tithing of yearling domestic food-animals. They were counted by having them pass through a narrow gate, and each tenth was marked by a rod dipped in coloring.

What scripture where it says to give a tenth?

In Genesis 28:20-22, but not as a Tithe but as a conditional bribe.28:20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, 28:21 So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:28:22 And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.If your asking about Tithing and if you were made to believe that you have to give one tenth of what you own, then read on.Leviticus 27:30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD's: it is holy unto the LORD.27:31 And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.27:32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD.It does not matter if you have 10 whatsoever (cows, goats, camel, etc) or 1,000 whatsoever, only the tenth of whatsoever will be given (tithe) to the Lord.

I have good news for you, there are no more Levites today.On 18:26, it says only tenth of part of the tithe. So if you're tithing ten percent, a tenth of that is only one percent (tenth of tenth = 1%)

What verses in the Bible talk about tithing and where does it say 20 percent late fee?

God defined His tithe in Leviticus 27:30-33 to be a tenth of crops and animals. In Leviticus 27:31 God says you can redeem (buy back) your tithe of crops, but to do so, you must add one fifth (20%) to the value. There is no late fee of 20%. The animals could not be redeemed. The tithe, itself, could NEVER be money.
