1 A gain, the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘ When a man makes a difficult vow, he shall be valued according to your valuation of persons belonging to the Lord.

Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When any one devoteth by a vow, the persons shall be for Jehovah according to thy valuation.

3 I f your valuation is of the male from twenty years even to sixty years old, then your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

And thy valuation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old: thy valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary;

4 O r if it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.

and if it be of a female, thy valuation shall be thirty shekels.

5 I f it be from five years even to twenty years old then your valuation for the male shall be twenty shekels and for the female ten shekels.

And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, thy valuation of the male shall be twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

6 B ut if they are from a month even up to five years old, then your valuation shall be five shekels of silver for the male, and for the female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.

And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, thy valuation of the male shall be five shekels of silver; and for the female thy valuation shall be three shekels of silver.

7 I f they are from sixty years old and upward, if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

And if it be from sixty years old and above, if it be a male, thy valuation shall be fifteen shekels; and for the female ten shekels.

8 B ut if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be placed before the priest and the priest shall value him; according to the means of the one who vowed, the priest shall value him.

And if he be poorer than thy valuation, he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him: according to his means that vowed shall the priest value him.

9 Now if it is an animal of the kind which men can present as an offering to the Lord, any such that one gives to the Lord shall be holy.

And if it be a beast whereof men bring an offering unto Jehovah, all that they give of such unto Jehovah shall be holy.

10 H e shall not replace it or exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; or if he does exchange animal for animal, then both it and its substitute shall become holy.

They shall not alter it nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.

11 I f, however, it is any unclean animal of the kind which men do not present as an offering to the Lord, then he shall place the animal before the priest.

And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not bring an offering unto Jehovah, then he shall present the beast before the priest;

12 T he priest shall value it as either good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be.

and the priest shall value it, between good and bad: according to the valuation of the priest, so shall it be.

13 B ut if he should ever wish to redeem it, then he shall add one-fifth of it to your valuation.

And if they will in any wise redeem it, then they shall add a fifth thereof unto thy valuation.

14 Now if a man consecrates his house as holy to the Lord, then the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand.

And when any one halloweth his house, that it may be holy to Jehovah, the priest shall value it, between good and bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.

15 Y et if the one who consecrates it should wish to redeem his house, then he shall add one-fifth of your valuation price to it, so that it may be his.

And if he that halloweth it will redeem his house, he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be his.

16 Again, if a man consecrates to the Lord part of the fields of his own property, then your valuation shall be proportionate to the seed needed for it: a homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver.

And if a man hallow to Jehovah of a field of his possession, thy valuation shall be according to what may be sown in it: the homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver.

17 I f he consecrates his field as of the year of jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.

If he hallow his field from the year of jubilee, according to thy valuation shall it stand;

18 I f he consecrates his field after the jubilee, however, then the priest shall calculate the price for him proportionate to the years that are left until the year of jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your valuation.

but if he hallow his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, until the year of the jubilee; and there shall be a reduction from thy valuation.

19 I f the one who consecrates it should ever wish to redeem the field, then he shall add one-fifth of your valuation price to it, so that it may pass to him.

And if he that hallowed the field will in any wise redeem it, he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it, and it shall be assured to him;

20 Y et if he will not redeem the field, but has sold the field to another man, it may no longer be redeemed;

but if he do not redeem the field, or if he sell the field to another man, it cannot be redeemed any more;

21 a nd when it reverts in the jubilee, the field shall be holy to the Lord, like a field set apart; it shall be for the priest as his property.

and the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be holy to Jehovah, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.

22 O r if he consecrates to the Lord a field which he has bought, which is not a part of the field of his own property,

And if he hallow to Jehovah a field that he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession,

23 t hen the priest shall calculate for him the amount of your valuation up to the year of jubilee; and he shall on that day give your valuation as holy to the Lord.

the priest shall reckon unto him the amount of thy valuation, unto the year of the jubilee; and he shall give thy valuation on that day, holy to Jehovah.

24 I n the year of jubilee the field shall return to the one from whom he bought it, to whom the possession of the land belongs.

In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought—to him to whom the land belonged.

25 E very valuation of yours, moreover, shall be after the shekel of the sanctuary. The shekel shall be twenty gerahs.

And all thy valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26 However, a firstborn among animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no man may consecrate it; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s.

Only the firstling which is offered as firstling to Jehovah among the cattle, that shall no man hallow, whether it be ox or sheep; it is Jehovah's.

27 B ut if it is among the unclean animals, then he shall redeem it according to your valuation and add to it one-fifth of it; and if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.

But if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it according to thy valuation, and shall add a fifth of it thereto; and if it be not redeemed, it shall be sold according to thy valuation.

28 Nevertheless, anything which a man sets apart to the Lord out of all that he has, of man or animal or of the fields of his own property, shall not be sold or redeemed. Anything devoted to destruction is most holy to the Lord.

Notwithstanding, no devoted thing that a man hath devoted to Jehovah of all that he hath, of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.

29 N o one who may have been set apart among men shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.

Nothing devoted, which shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed: it shall certainly be put to death.

30 Thus all the tithe of the land, of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s; it is holy to the Lord.

And as to every tithe of the land, of the seed of the land, and of the fruit of the tree, it is Jehovah's: it is holy to Jehovah.

31 I f, therefore, a man wishes to redeem part of his tithe, he shall add to it one-fifth of it.

And if any one will at all redeem of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth thereof.

32 F or every tenth part of herd or flock, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord.

And as to every tithe of the herd, or of the flock, of whatever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Jehovah.

33 H e is not to be concerned whether it is good or bad, nor shall he exchange it; or if he does exchange it, then both it and its substitute shall become holy. It shall not be redeemed.’”

He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it; and if he change it at all, then both it and the exchange thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.

34 T hese are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel at Mount Sinai.

These are the commandments which Jehovah commanded Moses for the children of Israel upon mount Sinai.
