Talmud for Sotah 7:3

מִקְרָא בִכּוּרִים כֵּיצַד, (דברים כו) וְעָנִיתָ וְאָמַרְתָּ לִפְנֵי ה' אֱלֹהֶיךָ, וּלְהַלָּן הוּא אוֹמֵר (שם כז) וְעָנוּ הַלְוִיִּם וְאָמְרוּ, מָה עֲנִיָּה הָאֲמוּרָה לְהַלָּן בִּלְשׁוֹן הַקֹּדֶשׁ, אַף כָּאן בִּלְשׁוֹן הַקֹּדֶשׁ:

The recitation for first fruits: How so? [It says] (Devarim 26:5) "you will recite and say before the Lord your God" and later on, (Deuteronomy 27:14) "and the Levites will recite and say." Just like reciting and saying there is in the holy tongue, so here it is in the holy tongue.
