Leviticus 27

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When a man maketh a wonderful vow, by thy valuation the persons [are] Jehovah's.

"Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, 'When a man makes a vow, the persons shall be for YHWH by your valuation.

3 When thy valuation hath been of the male from a son of twenty years even unto a son of sixty years, then hath been thy valuation fifty shekels of silver by the shekel of the sanctuary.

Your valuation shall be of a male from twenty years old even to sixty years old, even your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

4 And if it [is] a female — then hath thy valuation been thirty shekels;

If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.

5 and if from a son of five years even unto a son of twenty years — then hath thy valuation been of the male twenty shekels, and for the female, ten shekels;

If the person is from five years old even to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

6 and if from a son of a month even unto a son of five years — then hath thy valuation been of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy valuation [is] three shekels of silver;

If the person is from a month old even to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.

7 and if from a son of sixty years and above — if a male, then hath thy valuation been fifteen shekels, and for a female, ten shekels.

If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

8 'And if he is poorer than thy valuation, then he hath presented himself before the priest, and the priest hath valued him; according to that which the hand of him who is vowing doth reach doth the priest value him.

But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the ability of him who vowed shall the priest value him.

9 'And if [it is] a beast of which they bring near an offering to Jehovah, all that [one] giveth of it to Jehovah is holy;

"'If it is an animal, of which men offer an offering to YHWH, all that any man gives of such to YHWH becomes holy.

10 he doth not change it nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he really change beast for beast, — then it hath been — it and its exchange is holy.

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 animal for animal, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy.

11 'And if [it is] any unclean beast of which they do not bring near an offering to Jehovah, then he hath presented the beast before the priest,

If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to YHWH, then he shall set the animal before the priest;

12 and the priest hath valued it; whether good or bad, according to thy valuation, O priest, so it is;

and the priest shall value it, whether it is good or bad. As you the priest values it, so shall it be.

13 and if he really redeem it, then he hath added its fifth to thy valuation.

But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.

14 'And when a man sanctifieth his house, a holy thing to Jehovah, then hath the priest valued it, whether good or bad; as the priest doth value it so it standeth;

"'When a man dedicates his house to be holy to YHWH, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad: as the priest shall evaluate it, so shall it stand.

15 and if he who is sanctifying doth redeem his house, then he hath added a fifth of the money of thy valuation to it, and it hath become his.

If he who dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.

16 'And if of the field of his possession a man sanctify to Jehovah, then hath thy valuation been according to its seed; a homer of barley-seed at fifty shekels of silver;

"'If a man dedicates to YHWH part of the field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it: the sowing of a homer of barley shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

17 if from the year of the jubilee he sanctify his field, according to thy valuation it standeth;

If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.

18 and if after the jubilee he sanctify his field, then hath the priest reckoned to him the money according to the years which are left, unto the year of the jubilee, and it hath been abated from thy valuation.

But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money according to the years that remain to the Year of Jubilee; and an abatement shall be made from your valuation.

19 'And if he really redeem the field — he who is sanctifying it — then he hath added a fifth of the money of thy valuation to it, and it hath been established to him;

If he who dedicated the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall remain his.

20 and if he do not redeem the field, or if he hath sold the field to another man, it is not redeemed any more;

If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;

21 and the field hath been, in its going out in the jubilee, holy to Jehovah as a field which is devoted; to the priest is its possession.

but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to YHWH, as a field devoted; it shall be owned by the priests.

22 'And if the field of his purchase (which [is] not of the fields of his possession) [one] sanctify to Jehovah —

"'If he dedicates to YHWH a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,

23 then hath the priest reckoned to him the amount of thy valuation unto the year of jubilee, and he hath given thy valuation in that day — a holy thing to Jehovah;

then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation up to the Year of Jubilee; and he shall give your valuation on that day, as a holy thing to YHWH.

24 in the year of the jubilee the field returneth to him from whom he bought it, to him whose [is] the possession of the land.

In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.

25 And all thy valuation is by the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs is the shekel.

All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.

26 'Only, a firstling which is Jehovah's firstling among beasts — no man doth sanctify it, whether ox or sheep; it [is] Jehovah's.

"'Only the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to YHWH, no man may dedicate it; whether an ox or sheep, it is YHWH's.

27 And if among the unclean beasts, then he hath ransomed [it] at thy valuation, and he hath added its fifth to it; and if it is not redeemed, then it hath been sold at thy valuation.

If it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back according to your valuation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it: or if it isn't redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.

28 'Only, no devoted thing which a man devoteth to Jehovah, of all that he hath, of man, and beast, and of the field of his possession, is sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.

"'Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to YHWH of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to YHWH.

29 'No devoted thing, which is devoted of man, is ransomed, it is surely put to death.

"'No one devoted, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.

30 And all tithe of the land, of the seed of the land, of the fruit of the tree, is Jehovah's — holy to Jehovah.

"'All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is YHWH's. It is holy to YHWH.

31 'And if a man really redeem [any] of his tithe, its fifth he addeth to it.

If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.

32 'And all the tithe of the herd and of the flock — all that passeth by under the rod — the tenth is holy to Jehovah;

All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to YHWH.

33 he enquireth not between good and bad, nor doth he change it; and if he really change it — then it hath been — it and its exchange is holy; it is not redeemed.'

He shall not search whether it is good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he changes it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.'"

34 These [are] the commands which Jehovah hath commanded Moses for the sons of Israel, in mount Sinai.

These are the commandments which YHWH commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.
