Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, |
2
|
"Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, \'When a man makes a vow, the persons shall be for Yahweh by your valuation. |
3
|
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
|
If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels. |
5
|
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
|
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
|
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
|
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
|
"\'If it is an animal, whereof men offer an offering to Yahweh, all that any man gives of such to Yahweh becomes holy. |
10
|
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
|
If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to Yahweh, then he shall set the animal before the priest; |
12
|
and the priest shall value it, whether it is good or bad. As you the priest values it, so shall it be. |
13
|
But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation. |
14
|
"\'When a man dedicates his house to be holy to Yahweh, then the priest shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad: as the priest shall evaluate it, so shall it stand. |
15
|
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
|
"\'If a man dedicates to Yahweh 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 he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand. |
18
|
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
|
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
|
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
|
but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to Yahweh, as a field devoted; it shall be owned by the priests. |
22
|
"\'If he dedicates to Yahweh a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession, |
23
|
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 Yahweh. |
24
|
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
|
All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel. |
26
|
"\'Only the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to Yahweh, no man may dedicate it; whether an ox or sheep, it is Yahweh\'s. |
27
|
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
|
"\'Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to Yahweh 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 Yahweh. |
29
|
"\'No one devoted, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death. |
30
|
"\'All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is Yahweh\'s. It is holy to Yahweh. |
31
|
If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it. |
32
|
All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Yahweh. |
33
|
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 commandments which Yahweh commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai. |
