Leviticus 27:1
|
The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,
|
Leviticus 27:2
|
"Speak to the children of Yisra'el, and say to them, 'When a man makes a vow, the persons shall be for the LORD by your valuation.
|
Leviticus 27:3
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:4
|
If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.
|
Leviticus 27:5
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:6
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:7
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:8
|
But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the kohen, and the kohen shall value him; according to the ability of him who vowed shall the kohen value him.
|
Leviticus 27:9
|
"'If it is an animal, of which men offer an offering to the LORD, all that any man gives of such to the LORD becomes holy.
|
Leviticus 27:10
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:11
|
If it is any unclean animal, of which they do not offer as an offering to the LORD, then he shall set the animal before the kohen;
|
Leviticus 27:12
|
and the kohen shall value it, whether it is good or bad. As you the kohen values it, so shall it be.
|
Leviticus 27:13
|
But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to its valuation.
|
Leviticus 27:14
|
"'When a man dedicates his house to be holy to the LORD, then the kohen shall evaluate it, whether it is good or bad: as the kohen shall evaluate it, so shall it stand.
|
Leviticus 27:15
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:16
|
"'If a man dedicates to the LORD 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.
|
Leviticus 27:17
|
If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.
|
Leviticus 27:18
|
But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the kohen 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.
|
Leviticus 27:19
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:20
|
If he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more;
|
Leviticus 27:21
|
but the field, when it goes out in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, as a field devoted; it shall be owned by the kohanim.
|
Leviticus 27:22
|
"'If he dedicates to the LORD a field which he has bought, which is not of the field of his possession,
|
Leviticus 27:23
|
then the kohen 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 the LORD.
|
Leviticus 27:24
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:25
|
All your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.
|
Leviticus 27:26
|
"'Only the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to the LORD, no man may dedicate it; whether an ox or sheep, it is the LORD's.
|
Leviticus 27:27
|
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.
|
Leviticus 27:28
|
"'Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to the LORD 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 the LORD.
|
Leviticus 27:29
|
"'No one devoted, who shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
|
Leviticus 27:30
|
"'All the 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.
|
Leviticus 27:31
|
If a man redeems anything of his tithe, he shall add a fifth part to it.
|
Leviticus 27:32
|
All the tithe of the herds or the flocks, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to the LORD.
|
Leviticus 27:33
|
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.'"
|
Leviticus 27:34

These are the mitzvot which the LORD commanded Moshe for the children of Yisra'el on Mount Sinai.
