27 ā[1] And the Lord spake with Mosheh, saying:
ā[2] Speak with the children of Israel, and say to them: When a man willeth to set apart the separation of a vow, in the valuing of the life unto the name of the Lord,
ā[3] then his valuation for a male from twenty years old unto sixty years, fifty shekels, in the shekel of the sanctuary, shall be his valuation:
ā[4] but if for a female, his valuation shall be thirty shekels.
ā[5] And if it be a child from five years until twenty years, his estimation for a male shall be twenty shekels; and for a female, ten shekels.
ā[6] But for a child of a month old until five years, his estimation for a male shall be five silver shekels; and for a female, three silver shekels.
ā[7] Moreover, for a man of sixty years and upwards, his estimation shall be fifteen shekels; and for a female, ten shekels.
ā[8] But if he be too poor for (such) a rate of his estimation, he shall stand before the priest; and the priest shall make an estimation for him, according to the ability of his hand, so shall the priest estimate for him.
ā[9] And if it be an animal, of such as are offered as an oblation before the Lord, whatever he giveth of it before the Lord shall be sacred.
ā[10] He shall not alter it nor change it, that which is perfect for that which hath blemish, or that in which there is blemish for the perfect: but if by changing he will exchange animal for animal, both that and the one that is changed shall be consecrate.
ā[11] But if it be an unclean animal, of such as are not offered as an oblation before the Lord, he shall make the animal stand before the priest.
ā[12] And the priest shall value it, whether good or bad; as the priest shall value, so shall it be.
ā[13] But if he would redeem it, let him add a fifth of its price upon that of its valuation.
ā[14] When a man would consecrate his house, as a consecrated thing before the Lord; the priest shall value it, whether good or bad; according as the priest shall estimate, so shall it stand.
ā[15] And if he who hath consecrated would redeem his house, let him add a fifth of the price of its valuation thereunto, and it shall be his.
ā[16] And if a man would dedicate (a portion) of the field of his inheritance before the Lord, the valuation of it shall be according to the measure of its seed: a space on which may be sown a kor (seventy-five and a half pints) of barley (shall be considered) worth fifty shekels of silver.
ā[17] If he will dedicate the ground from the year of Jubela, it shall stand according to its valuation.
ā[18] But if he will dedicate his field after the year of Jubela, the priest shall compute with him the sum of the money according to the proportion of years that remain unto the next Jubela year, and shall abate it from the valuation.
ā[19] And if he would redeem the field that he had consecrated, let him add one fifth of the money upon its valued price, and it shall be confirmed to him.
ā[20] But if he will not redeem the field, but sell it to another man, it shall not be redeemed again:
ā[21] the field, when it goeth out at the Jubela, shall be sacred before the Lord; as a field separated for the priest it shall be his inheritance.
ā[22] And if he would consecrate before the Lord a field which he hath bought, and which is not of the land of his inheritance,
ā[23] then the priest shall compute with him the amount of the price of its valuation until the year of Jubela; and he shall give its value on that day, as a consecrated thing before the Lord.
ā[24] In the year of Jubela the field shall return to him from whom he bought it, to him who had the inheritance of the land.
ā[25] And every valuation shall be in shekels of the sanctuary twenty mahin are a shekel.
ā[26] Moreover, the firstling among cattle which is separated to the Name of the Lord, whether ox or lamb, a man cannot separate (as a votive gift), because it (already belongeth) to the Name of the Lord.
ā[27] And if it be an unclean animal, then he shall redeem it according to its valuation, and add a fifth of the price to it; but if he will not redeem it, then it shall be sold at the price of its valuation.
ā[28] Nevertheless, no devoted thing which a man shall separate before the Lord of anything that is his, of man, or beast, or of his inheritance, shall be sold or redeemed; every (devoted) separation is most sacred before the Lord.
ā[29] Every separation which shall be separated of man shall not be redeemed with money, but with burnt offerings, and with sanctified victims, and with supplication for mercy before the Lord, because such are to be put to death.
ā[30] And all the tythe of the land, of the seed of the ground, or the fruits of the tree, is the Lord's, and is most sacred before the Lord.
ā[31] But if a man will redeem any (part) of his tythes, he shall add a fifth part of its value thereunto.
ā[32] And every tythe of oxen and sheep, whatever passeth under the (tything) rod, the tenth shall be consecrated before the Lord.
ā[33] He shall not scrutinize between the good and the bad, nor exchange it; but if changing he will exchange it, both it and that for which it is changed shall be sacred, and not be redeemed.
ā[34] These are the precepts which the Lord prescribed unto Mosheh, and of which not one must be trifled with (or, innovated upon); and He prescribed them to be shown Unto the children of Israel at Mount Sinai.
