1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, The LORD said to Moses,
2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man who will have made a vow and espoused his soul to God shall give the price according to the estimation. “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, If anyone makes a special vow to the LORD involving the valuation of persons, “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If anyone makes a special vow to dedicate a person to the LORD by giving the equivalent value,
3 If it is a male from twenty years to sixty years, he shall give fifty shekels of silver, by the measure of the Sanctuary; then the valuation of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. set the value of a male between the ages of twenty and sixty at fifty shekels of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel;
4 if it is a woman, thirty. If the person is a female, the valuation shall be thirty shekels. for a female, set her value at thirty shekels;
5 But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a male shall give twenty shekels; a female, ten. If the person is from five years old up to twenty years old, the valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels. for a person between the ages of five and twenty, set the value of a male at twenty shekels and of a female at ten shekels;
6 From one month until the fifth year, for a male, five shekels shall be given; for a female, three. If the person is from a month old up to five years old, the valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female the valuation shall be three shekels of silver. for a person between one month and five years, set the value of a male at five shekels of silver and that of a female at three shekels of silver;
7 At sixty years and beyond, a male shall give fifteen shekels; a female, ten. And if the person is sixty years old or over, then the valuation for a male shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels. for a person sixty years old or more, set the value of a male at fifteen shekels and of a female at ten shekels.
8 If he is poor, and he does not have the means to pay the estimation, he shall stand before the priest, and however much he will value him and see that he is able to pay, so much shall he give. And if someone is too poor to pay the valuation, then he shall be made to stand before the priest, and the priest shall value him; the priest shall value him according to what the vower can afford. If anyone making the vow is too poor to pay the specified amount, the person being dedicated is to be presented to the priest, who will set the value according to what the one making the vow can afford.
9 But an animal which could be immolated to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be holy, “If the vow is an animal that may be offered as an offering to the LORD, all of it that he gives to the LORD is holy. “’If what they vowed is an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the LORD, such an animal given to the LORD becomes holy.
10 and it cannot be exchanged, that is, neither better for worse, nor worse for better. And if he has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged shall be consecrated to the Lord. He shall not exchange it or make a substitute for it, good for bad, or bad for good; and if he does in fact substitute one animal for another, then both it and the substitute shall be holy. They must not exchange it or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one; if they should substitute one animal for another, both it and the substitute become holy.
11 An unclean animal which could not be sacrificed to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be led before the priest, And if it is any unclean animal that may not be offered as an offering to the LORD, then he shall stand the animal before the priest, If what they vowed is a ceremonially unclean animal—one that is not acceptable as an offering to the LORD—the animal must be presented to the priest,
12 who, judging whether it is either good or bad, shall set the price. and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall be. who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be.
13 But if he who offers it was willing to give, he shall add a fifth part above the estimation. But if he wishes to redeem it, he shall add a fifth to the valuation. If the owner wishes to redeem the animal, a fifth must be added to its value.
14 If a man has vowed his house, and he has sanctified it to the Lord, the priest shall examine it, whether it is good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price which he will have established. “When a man dedicates his house as a holy gift to the LORD, the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. “’If anyone dedicates their house as something holy to the LORD, the priest will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, so it will remain.
15 But if he who vowed it was willing to redeem it, he shall give a fifth part beyond the estimation, and he shall have the house. And if the donor wishes to redeem his house, he shall add a fifth to the valuation price, and it shall be his. If the one who dedicates their house wishes to redeem it, they must add a fifth to its value, and the house will again become theirs.
16 But if he has vowed a field of his possession, and has consecrated it to the Lord, the price shall be estimated according to the measure of the seed. If the land would be sown with thirty measures of barley, then let it be sold for fifty shekels of silver. “If a man dedicates to the LORD part of the land that is his possession, then the valuation shall be in proportion to its seed. A homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. “’If anyone dedicates to the LORD part of their family land, its value is to be set according to the amount of seed required for it—fifty shekels of silver to a homer of barley seed.
17 If he has vowed his field beginning from the current year of Jubilee, as much as it may be worth, so shall it be estimated. If he dedicates his field from the year of jubilee, the valuation shall stand, If they dedicate a field during the Year of Jubilee, the value that has been set remains.
18 But if, after some amount of time, the priest shall evaluate the money according to the number of years that remain until the Jubilee, then the price shall be reduced. but if he dedicates his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall calculate the price according to the years that remain until the year of jubilee, and a deduction shall be made from the valuation. But if they dedicate a field after the Jubilee, the priest will determine the value according to the number of years that remain until the next Year of Jubilee, and its set value will be reduced.
19 But if he who had vowed it, was willing to redeem his field, he shall add a fifth part of the money to the estimation, and then he shall possess it. And if he who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it, then he shall add a fifth to its valuation price, and it shall remain his. If the one who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it, they must add a fifth to its value, and the field will again become theirs.
20 But if he is not willing to redeem it, then it shall be sold to any other; he who vowed it is no longer able to redeem it. But if he does not wish to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore. If, however, they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can never be redeemed.
21 For when the day of Jubilee arrives, it shall be sanctified to the Lord. And as a possession that has been consecrated, it rightfully belongs to the priest. But the field, when it is released in the jubilee, shall be a holy gift to the LORD, like a field that has been devoted. The priest shall be in possession of it. When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will become holy, like a field devoted to the LORD; it will become priestly property.
22 If a field has been bought, and it is not from the possession of ancestors, it shall be sanctified to the Lord. If he dedicates to the LORD a field that he has bought, which is not a part of his possession, “’If anyone dedicates to the LORD a field they have bought, which is not part of their family land,
23 The priest shall evaluate the price according to the number of years until the Jubilee; and the one who had vowed it shall give to the Lord. then the priest shall calculate the amount of the valuation for it up to the year of jubilee, and the man shall give the valuation on that day as a holy gift to the LORD. the priest will determine its value up to the Year of Jubilee, and the owner must pay its value on that day as something holy to the LORD.
24 Then, in the Jubilee, it shall be returned to the former owner, the one who had sold it and who had held it within the lot of his possession. In the year of jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to whom the land belongs as a possession. In the Year of Jubilee the field will revert to the person from whom it was bought, the one whose land it was.
25 All estimation shall be weighed according to the shekel of the Sanctuary. A shekel has twenty obols. Every valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall make a shekel. Every value is to be set according to the sanctuary shekel, twenty gerahs to the shekel.
26 The firstborn, which belong to the Lord, no one is able to sanctify or vow, whether it is an ox, or a sheep, they are for the Lord. “But a firstborn of animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the LORD, no man may dedicate; whether ox or sheep, it is the LORD’s. “’No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the LORD; whether an ox or a sheep, it is the LORD’s.
27 But if it is an unclean animal, whoever offers it shall redeem it, according to your estimation, and he shall add a fifth part to the price. If he is not willing to redeem it, it shall be sold to another for whatever amount it was estimated by you. And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back at the valuation, and add a fifth to it; or, if it is not redeemed, it shall be sold at the valuation. If it is one of the unclean animals, it may be bought back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If it is not redeemed, it is to be sold at its set value.
28 All that is consecrated to the Lord, whether it is a man, or an animal, or a field, shall not be sold; neither is it able to be redeemed. Anything, once it has been consecrated, shall be the Holy of holies to the Lord. “But no devoted thing that a man devotes to the LORD, of anything that he has, whether man or beast, or of his inherited field, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to the LORD. “’But nothing that a person owns and devotes to the LORD—whether a human being or an animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the LORD.
29 And all that has been consecrated, which is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but shall surely die. No one devoted, who is to be devoted for destruction from mankind, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death. “’No person devoted to destruction may be ransomed; they are to be put to death.
30 All the tithes of the land, whether from the grain, or from the fruits of trees, are for the Lord and are sanctified to him. “Every tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the LORD’s; it is holy to the LORD. “’A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.
31 But if anyone is willing to redeem his tithes, he shall add a fifth part to them. If a man wishes to redeem some of his tithe, he shall add a fifth to it. Whoever would redeem any of their tithe must add a fifth of the value to it.
32 Out of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, which cross under the rod of the shepherd, every tenth one that arrives shall be sanctified to the Lord. And every tithe of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that pass under the herdsman’s staff, shall be holy to the LORD. Every tithe of the herd and flock—every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod—will be holy to the LORD.
33 It shall not be chosen by what is good or bad; neither shall it be exchanged for another. If anyone has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged, shall be sanctified to the Lord and shall not be redeemed. One shall not differentiate between good or bad, neither shall he make a substitute for it; and if he does substitute for it, then both it and the substitute shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.” No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution. If anyone does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.’”
34 These are the precepts, which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel on mount Sinai. These are the commandments that the LORD commanded Moses for the people of Israel on Mount Sinai. These are the commands the LORD gave Moses at Mount Sinai for the Israelites.
