Leviticus 27

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Loquere filiis Israel, et dices ad eos: Homo qui votum fecerit, et spoponderit Deo animam suam, sub aestimatione dabit pretium.

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whosoever shall vow a vow as the valuation of his soul for the Lord,

3 Si fuerit masculus a vigesimo anno usque ad sexagesimum annum, dabit quinquaginta siclos argenti ad mensuram Sanctuarii:

the valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be his valuation shall be fifty didrachms of silver by the standard of the sanctuary.

4 si mulier, triginta.

And the valuation of a female shall be thirty didrachms.

5 A quinto autem anno usque ad vigesimum, masculus dabit viginti siclos: femina decem.

And if it be from five years old to twenty, the valuation of a male shall be twenty didrachms, and of a female ten didrachms.

6 Ab uno mense usque ad annum quintum, pro masculo dabuntur quinque sicli: pro femina, tres.

And from a month old to five years old, the valuation of a male shall be five didrachms, and of a female, three didrachms of silver.

7 Sexagenarius et ultra masculus dabit quindecim siclos: femina decem.

And if from sixty year [old] and upward, if it be a male, his valuation shall be fifteen didrachms of silver, and if a female, ten didrachms.

8 Si pauper fuerit, et aestimationem reddere non valebit, stabit coram sacerdote: et quantum ille aestimaverit, et viderit eum posse reddere, tantum dabit.

And if the man be too poor for the valuation, he shall stand before the priest; and the priest shall value him: according to what the man who has vowed can afford, the priest shall value him.

9 Animal autem, quod immolari potest Domino, si quis voverit, sanctum erit,

And if it be from the cattle that are offered as a gift to the Lord, whoever shall offer one of these to the Lord, it shall be holy.

10 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.

He shall not change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he do at all change it, a beast for a beast, it and the substitute shall be holy.

11 Animal immundum, quod immolari Domino non potest, si quis voverit, adducetur ante sacerdotem.

And if it be any unclean beast, of which none are offered as a gift to the Lord, he shall set the beast before the priest.

12 qui diiudicans utrum bonum an malum sit, statuet pretium.

And the priest shall make a valuation between the good and the bad, and accordingly as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.

13 quod si dare voluerit is, qui offert, addet supra aestimationem quintam partem.

And if [the worshipper] will at all redeem it, he shall add the fifth part to its value.

14 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:

And whatsoever man shall consecrate his house as holy to the Lord, the priest shall make a valuation of it between the good and the bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.

15 sin autem ille qui voverat, voluerit redimere eam, dabit quintam partem aestimationis supra, et habebit domum.

And if he that has sanctified it should redeem his house, he shall add to it the fifth part of the money of the valuation, and it shall be his.

16 Quod si agrum possessionis suae voverit, et consecraverit Domino: iuxta mensuram sementis aestimabitur pretium. si triginta modiis hordei seritur terra, quinquaginta siclis venundetur argenti.

And if a man should hallow to the Lord a part of the field of his possession, then the valuation shall be according to its seed, fifty didrachms of silver for a homer of barley.

17 Si statim ab anno incipientis iubilei voverit agrum, quanto valere potest, tanto aestimabitur.

And if he should sanctify his field from the year of release, it shall stand according to his valuation.

18 sin autem post aliquantum temporis: supputabit sacerdos pecuniam iuxta annorum, qui reliqui sunt, numerum usque ad iubileum, et detrahetur ex pretio.

And if he should sanctify his field in the latter time after the release, the priest shall reckon to him the money for the remaining years, until the [next] year of release, and it shall be deducted as an equivalent from his full valuation.

19 Quod si voluerit redimere agrum ille, qui voverat, addet quintam partem aestimatae pecuniae, et possidebit eum.

And if he that sanctified the field would redeem it, he shall add to its value the fifth part of the money, and it shall be his.

20 Sin autem noluerit redimere, sed alteri cuilibet fuerit venundatus, ultra eum qui voverat redimere non poterit:

And if he do not redeem the field, but should sell the field to another man, he shall not after redeem it.

21 quia cum iubilei venerit dies, sanctificatus erit Domino, et possessio consecrata ad ius pertinet sacerdotum.

But the field shall be holy to the Lord after the release, as separated land; the priest shall have possession of it.

22 Si ager emptus est, et non de possessione maiorum sanctificatus fuerit Domino,

And if he should consecrate to the Lord of a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,

23 supputabit sacerdos iuxta annorum numerum usque ad iubileum, pretium: et dabit ille qui voverat eum, Domino.

the priest shall reckon to him the full valuation from the year of release, and he shall pay the valuation in that day [as] holy to the Lord.

24 in iubileo autem revertetur ad priorem dominum, qui vendiderat eum, et habuerat in sorte possessionis suae.

And in the year of release the land shall be restored to the man of whom the other bought it, whose the possession of the land was.

25 Omnis aestimatio siclo sanctuarii ponderabitur. Siclus viginti obolos habet.

And every valuation shall be by holy weights: the didrachm shall be twenty oboli.

26 Primogenita, quae ad Deum pertinent, nemo sanctificare poterit et vovere: sive bos, sive ovis fuerit, Domini sunt.

And every first-born which shall be produced among thy cattle shall be the Lord's, and no man shall sanctify it: whether calf or sheep, it is the Lord's.

27 Quod si immundum est animal, redimet qui obtulit, iuxta aestimationem suam, et addet quintam partem pretii: si redimere noluerit, vendetur alteri quantumcumque ante fuerit aestimatum.

But if he should redeem an unclean beast, according to its valuation, then he shall add the fifth part to it, and it shall be his; and if he redeem it not, it shall be sold according to its valuation.

28 Omne, quod Domino consecratur, sive homo fuerit, sive animal, sive ager, non veniet, nec redimi poterit. Quidquid semel fuerit consecratum, sanctum sanctorum erit Domino.

And every dedicated thing which a man shall dedicate to the Lord of all that he has, whether man or beast, or of the field of his possession, he shall not sell it, nor redeem it: every devoted thing shall be most holy to the Lord.

29 Et omnis consecratio, quae offertur ab homine, non redimetur, sed morte morietur.

And whatever shall be dedicated of men, shall not be ransomed, but shall be surely put to death.

30 Omnes decimae terrae, sive de frugibus, sive de pomis arborum, Domini sunt, et illi sanctificantur.

Every tithe of the land, both of the seed of the land, and of the fruit of trees, is the Lord's, holy to the Lord.

31 Si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas, addet quintam partem earum.

And if a man should at all redeem his tithe, he shall add the fifth part to it, and it shall be his.

32 Omnium decimarum bovis et ovis et caprae, quae sub pastoris virga transeunt, quidquid decimum venerit, sanctificabitur Domino.

And every tithe of oxen, and of sheep, and whatsoever may come in numbering under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the Lord.

33 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.

Thou shalt not change a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if thou shouldest at all change it, its equivalent also shall be holy, it shall not be redeemed.

34 Haec sunt praecepta, quae mandavit Dominus Moysi ad filios Israel in monte Sinai.

These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel in mount Sina.
