Leviticus 27

1And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man shall make a special vow of persons to the LORD at your valuation,
3Then your valuation shall be for the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
4And if it be a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels.
5And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
6And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then your valuation shall be for the male five shekels of silver, and for the female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver.
7And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
8But if he is too poor to pay your valuation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
9And if it be an animal, of which men bring an offering unto the LORD, all that any man gives of such unto the LORD shall be holy.
10He 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 it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.
11And if it be any unclean animal, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto the LORD, then he shall present the animal before the priest:
12And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as you value it, who are the priest, so shall it be.
13But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto your valuation.
14And when a man shall dedicate his house to be holy unto the LORD, then the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall value it, so shall it stand.
15And if he that dedicates it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation unto it, and it shall be his.
16And if a man shall dedicate unto the LORD some part of a field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed from it: a homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17If he dedicates his field from the year of jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.
18But if he dedicates his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money due according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubilee, and it shall be deducted from your valuation.
19And if he that dedicates the field will at any time redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your valuation unto it, and it shall belong to him.
20And if he will not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore.
21But the field, when it goes out in the jubilee, shall be holy unto the LORD, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.
22And if a man dedicates unto the LORD a field which he has bought, which is not of the fields of his possession;
23Then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of your valuation, even up to the year of the jubilee: and he shall give your valuation in that day, as a holy thing unto the LORD.
24In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong.
25And all your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
26Only the firstling of the animals, which should be the LORD'S firstling, no man may dedicate it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is the LORD'S.
27And if it be of an unclean animal, then he shall redeem it according to your valuation, and shall add a fifth part to it: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28Nevertheless no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the LORD of all that he has, both of man and animal, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the LORD.
29No one devoted to destruction, who shall be devoted among men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.
30And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD'S: it is holy unto the LORD.
31And if a man will at all redeem any of his tithes, he shall add to it the fifth part thereof.
32And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD.
33He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he changes it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
34These are the commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel on mount Sinai.
