And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 “Israel carhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Hlang khat khat loh na hinglu phu neh BOEIPA taengah olcaeng a rhaisang sak atah,

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man that shall have made a vow, and promised his soul to God, shall give the price according to estimation.

If a man shall vow his house, and sanctify it to the Lord, the priest shall consider it, whether it be good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price, which he shall appoint.
