< Leviticus 27 >
1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Moreouer the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons [shall be] for the LORD, by thy estimation.
Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, If any man shall make a vowe of a person vnto the Lord, by thy estimation,
3 And thy estimation shall be, of the male from twenty years old even to sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
Then thy estimation shall bee thus: a male from twentie yeere olde vnto sixty yeere olde shalbe by thy estimation euen fifty shekels of siluer, after the shekel of the Sanctuarie.
4 And if it [shall be] a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.
But if it be a female, then thy valuation shall be thirtie shekels.
5 And if [it shall be] from five years old even to twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
And from fiue yere old to twentie yere olde thy valuation shall be for the male twentie shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
6 And if [it shall be] from a month old even to five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation [shall be] three shekels of silver.
But from a moneth old vnto fiue yere old, thy price of the male shall bee fiue shekels of siluer, and thy price of the female, three shekels of siluer.
7 And if [it shall be] from sixty years old and above; if a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
And from sixty yeere olde and aboue, if he be a male, then thy price shalbe fifteene shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
8 But if he shall be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him: according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
But if he be poorer then thou hast esteemed him, then shall hee present himselfe before the Priest, and the Priest shall value him, according to the abilitie of him that vowed, so shall the Priest value him.
9 And if [it shall be] a beast of which men bring an offering to the LORD, all that [any man] giveth of such to the LORD shall be holy.
And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering vnto the Lord, all that one giueth of such vnto the Lord, shalbe holy.
10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange of it shall be holy.
He shall not alter it nor change it, a good for a badde, nor a badde for a good: and if hee change beast for beast, then both this and that, which was changed for it, shall be holy.
11 And if [it shall be] any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice to the LORD, then he shall present the beast before the priest:
And if it be any vncleane beast, of which men do not offer a sacrifice vnto the Lord, hee shall then present the beast before the Priest.
12 And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, [who art] the priest, so shall it be.
And the Priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: and as thou valuest it, which art the Priest, so shall it bee.
13 But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth [part] of it to thy estimation.
But if he will bye it againe, then hee shall giue the fift part of it more, aboue thy valuation.
14 And when a man shall sanctify his house [to be] holy to the LORD, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it is good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
Also whe a man shall dedicate his house to be holy vnto the Lord, then the Priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad, and as ye Priest shall prise it, so shall the value be.
15 And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth [part] of the money of thy estimation to it, and it shall be his.
But if he that sanctified it, will redeeme his house, then hee shall giue thereto the fift part of money more then thy estimation, and it shalbe his.
16 And if a man shall sanctify to the LORD [some part] of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed of it: a homer of barley seed [shall be valued] at fifty shekels of silver.
If also a man dedicate to the Lord any grounde of his inheritance, then shalt thou esteeme it according to the seede therof: an Homer of barlie seede shalbe at fiftie shekels of siluer.
17 If he shall sanctify his field from the year of jubilee, according to thy estimation it shall stand.
If he dedicate his field immediatly from the yeere of Iubile, it shall bee worth as thou doest esteeme it.
18 But if he shall sanctify his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain, even to the year of the jubilee, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.
But if hee dedicate his fielde after the Iubile, then the Priest shall recken him the money according to ye yeeres that remaine vnto the yere of Iubile, and it shalbe abated by thy estimation.
19 And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth [part] of the money of thy estimation to it, and it shall be assured to him.
And if he that dedicateth it, will redeeme the fielde, then he shall put the fift parte of the price, that thou esteemedst it at, thereunto, and it shall remaine his.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he shall have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.
And if he will not redeeme the fielde, but the Priest sell the fielde to another man, it shalbe redeemed no more.
21 But the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, as a field devoted: the possession of it shall be the priest's.
But the field shalbe holy to the Lord, whe it goeth out in the Iubile, as a fielde separate from common vses: the possession thereof shall be the Priests.
22 And if [a man] shall sanctify to the LORD a field which he hath bought, which [is] not of the fields of his possession;
If a man also dedicate vnto ye Lord a fielde which he hath bought, which is not of the groud of his inheritance,
23 Then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of thy estimation, [even] to the year of the jubilee, and he shall give thy estimation in that day, [as] a holy thing to the LORD.
Then the Priest shall set the price to him, as thou esteemest it, vnto the yeere of Iubile, and he shall giue thy price the same day, as a thing holy vnto the Lord.
24 In the year of the jubilee, the field shall return to him of whom it was bought, [even] to him to whom the possession of the land [belonged].
But in the yeere of Iubile, the fielde shall returne vnto him, of whome it was bought: to him, I say, whose inheritance the land was.
25 And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
And all thy valuation shall bee according to the shekel of the Sanctuarie: a shekel conteyneth twenty gerahs.
26 Only the firstling of the beasts, which should be the LORD'S firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether ox, or sheep: it [is] the LORD'S.
Notwithstanding the first borne of the beastes, because it is the Lordes first borne, none shall dedicate such, be it bullocke, or sheepe; for it is the Lords.
27 And if [it shall be] of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem [it], according to thy estimation, and shall add to it a fifth [part] of it: or if it shall be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation.
But if it be an vncleane beast, then he shall redeeme it by thy valuation, and giue the fift part more thereto: and if it be not redeemed, then it shalbe solde, according to thy estimation.
28 Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man shall devote to the LORD of all that he hath, [both] of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to the LORD.
Notwithstanding, nothing separate from the common vse that a man doeth separate vnto the Lord of all that he hath (whether it bee man or beast, or lande of his inheritance) may be solde nor redeemed: for euery thing separate from the common vse is most holy vnto the Lord.
29 None devoted, which shall be devoted by men, shall be redeemed: [but] shall surely be put to death.
Nothing separate from the common vse, which shall be separate from man, shalbe redeemed, but dye the death.
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 to the LORD.
Also all the tithe of the lande both of the seede of the ground, and of the fruite of the trees is the Lords: it is holy to the Lord.
31 And if a man will at all redeem [aught] of his tithes, he shall add to it the fifth [part] of it.
But if a man will redeeme any of his tithe, he shall adde the fift part thereto.
32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, [even] of whatever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the LORD.
And euery tithe of bullock, and of sheepe, and of all that goeth vnder the rod, the tenth shalbe holy vnto the Lord.
33 He shall not search whether it is good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he shall change it at all, then both it and the change of it shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
He shall not looke if it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: els if he change it, both it, and that it was changed withall, shalbe holy, and it shall not be redeemed.
34 These [are] the commandments which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
These are the commandements which the Lord commanded by Moses vnto the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
