27 If it is one of the unclean animals,¹ he may buy it back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If he does not redeem it, it is to be sold at its set value. 28 " 'But nothing that a man owns and devotes^a² to the LORD--whether man or animal or family land--may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy³ to the LORD. 29 " 'No person devoted to destruction^b may be ransomed; he must be put to death.⁴ 30 " 'A tithe⁵ of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy⁶ to the LORD. 31 If a man redeems⁷ any of his tithe, he must add a fifth of the value⁸ to it. 32 The entire tithe of the herd and flock--every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd's rod⁹--will be holy to the LORD. 33 He must not pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution.¹⁰ If he does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.¹¹' " 34 These are the commands the LORD gave Moses on Mount Sinai¹² for the Israelites.¹³
