Leviticus 27
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said,
locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'If anyone makes a special vow to Yahweh, use the following valuations.
loquere filiis Israhel et dices ad eos homo qui votum fecerit et spoponderit Deo animam suam sub aestimatione dabit pretium
3 Your standard value for a male from twenty to sixty years old must be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
si fuerit masculus a vicesimo usque ad sexagesimum annum dabit quinquaginta siclos argenti ad mensuram sanctuarii
4 For a female of the same ages your standard value must be thirty shekels.
si mulier triginta
5 From five years to twenty years old your standard value for a male must be twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
a quinto autem anno usque ad vicesimum masculus dabit viginti siclos femina decem
6 From one month old to five years your standard value for a male must be five shekels of silver, and for a female three shekels of silver.
ab uno mense usque ad annum quintum pro masculo dabuntur quinque sicli pro femina tres
7 From sixty years old and up for a male your standard value must be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
sexagenarius et ultra masculus dabit quindecim siclos femina decem
8 But if the person making the vow cannot pay the standard value, then the person being given must be presented to the priest, and the priest will value that person by the amount the one making the vow is able to afford.
si pauper fuerit et aestimationem reddere non valebit stabit coram sacerdote et quantum ille aestimaverit et viderit eum posse reddere tantum dabit
9 If someone wants to sacrifice an animal to Yahweh, and if Yahweh accepts it, then that animal will be set apart to him.
animal autem quod immolari potest Domino si quis voverit sanctum erit
10 The person must not alter or change such an animal, a good one for a bad one or a bad for a good. If he does at all change one animal for another, then both it and the one for which it is exchanged become holy.
et mutari non poterit id est nec melius malo nec peius bono quod si mutaverit et ipsum quod mutatum est et illud pro quo mutatum est consecratum erit Domino
11 However, if what the person has vowed to give Yahweh is in fact unclean, so that Yahweh will not accept it, then the person must bring the animal to a priest.
animal inmundum quod immolari Domino non potest si quis voverit adducetur ante sacerdotem
12 The priest will value it, by the market value of the animal. Whatever value the priest places on the animal, that will be its value.
qui diiudicans utrum bonum an malum sit statuet pretium
13 If the owner wishes to redeem it, then a fifth of its value is to be added to its redemption price.
quod si dare voluerit is qui offert addet supra aestimationis quintam partem
14 When a man sets apart his house as a holy gift to Yahweh, then the priest will set its value as either good or bad. Whatever the priest values it, so it will be.
homo si voverit domum suam et sanctificaverit Domino considerabit eam sacerdos utrum bona an mala sit et iuxta pretium quod ab eo fuerit constitutum venundabitur
15 But if the owner who set apart his home wishes to redeem it, he must add a fifth of its value to its redemption price, and it will belong to him.
sin autem ille qui voverat voluerit redimere eam dabit quintam partem aestimationis supra et habebit domum
16 If a man sets apart some of his own land, then the valuation of it will be in proportion to the amount of seed required to plant it—a homer of barley will be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
quod si agrum possessionis suae voverit et consecraverit Domino iuxta mensuram sementis aestimabitur pretium si triginta modiis hordei seritur terra quinquaginta siclis veniet argenti
17 If he sets apart his field during the year of Jubilee, the valuation of it will stand.
si statim ab anno incipientis iobelei voverit agrum quanto valere potest tanto aestimabitur
18 But if he sets apart his field after the year of Jubilee, then the priest must calculate the value of the field by the number of years that remain until the next year of Jubilee, and the valuation of it must be reduced.
sin autem post aliquantum temporis supputabit sacerdos pecuniam iuxta annorum qui reliqui sunt numerum usque ad iobeleum et detrahetur ex pretio
19 If the man who set apart the field wishes to redeem it, then he must add a fifth to the valuation, and it will belong to him.
quod si voluerit redimere agrum ille qui voverat addet quintam partem aestimatae pecuniae et possidebit eum
20 If he does not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it cannot be redeemed any more.
sin autem noluerit redimere sed alteri cuilibet fuerit venundatus ultra eum qui voverat redimere non poterit
21 Instead, the field, when it is released in the year of Jubilee, will be a holy gift to Yahweh, like the field that has been completely given to Yahweh. It will belong to the priest.
quia cum iobelei venerit dies sanctificatus erit Domino et possessio consecrata ad ius pertinet sacerdotum
22 If a man sets apart a field that he has bought, but that field is not part of his family's land,
si ager emptus et non de possessione maiorum sanctificatus fuerit Domino
23 then the priest will figure the valuation of it up to the year of Jubilee, and the man must pay its value on that day as a holy gift to Yahweh.
supputabit sacerdos iuxta annorum numerum usque ad iobeleum pretium et dabit ille qui voverat eum Domino
24 In the year of Jubilee, the field will return to the man from whom it was bought, to the land's owner.
in iobeleo autem revertetur ad priorem dominum qui vendiderat eum et habuerat in sortem possessionis suae
25 All the valuations must be set by the weight of the sanctuary shekel. Twenty gerahs must be the equivalent of one shekel.
omnis aestimatio siclo sanctuarii ponderabitur siclus viginti obolos habet
26 No one may set apart the firstborn among animals, since the firstborn already belongs to Yahweh; whether ox or sheep, it is Yahweh's.
primogenita quae ad Dominum pertinent nemo sanctificare poterit et vovere sive bos sive ovis fuerit Domini sunt
27 If it is an unclean animal, then the owner may buy it back at the valuation of it, and a fifth must be added to that value. If the animal is not redeemed, then it is to be sold at the set value.
quod si inmundum est animal redimet qui obtulit iuxta aestimationem tuam et addet quintam partem pretii si redimere noluerit vendetur alteri quantocumque a te fuerit aestimatum
28 But nothing that a man devotes to Yahweh, from all that he has, whether human or animal, or his family land, may be sold or redeemed. Everything that is devoted is very holy to Yahweh.
omne quod Domino consecratur sive homo fuerit sive animal sive ager non veniet nec redimi poterit quicquid semel fuerit consecratum sanctum sanctorum erit Domino
29 No ransom may be paid for the person who is devoted for destruction. That person must be put to death.
et omnis consecratio quae offertur ab homine non redimetur sed morte morietur
30 All the tithe of the land, whether grain grown on the land or fruit from the trees, is Yahweh's. It is holy to Yahweh.
omnes decimae terrae sive de frugibus sive de pomis arborum Domini sunt et illi sanctificantur
31 If a man redeems any of his tithe, he must add a fifth to its value.
si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas addet quintam partem earum
32 As for every tenth of the herd or the flock, whatever passes under the shepherd's rod, one-tenth must be set apart to Yahweh.
omnium decimarum boves et oves et caprae quae sub pastoris virga transeunt quicquid decimum venerit sanctificabitur Domino
33 The shepherd must not search for the better or the worse animals, and he must not substitute one for another. If he changes it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed will be holy. It cannot be redeemed.'”
non eligetur nec bonum nec malum nec altero commutabitur si quis mutaverit et quod mutatum est et pro quo mutatum est sanctificabitur Domino et non redimetur
34 These are the commandments that Yahweh gave at Mount Sinai to Moses for the people of Israel.
haec sunt praecepta quae mandavit Dominus Mosi ad filios Israhel in monte Sinai
