Leviticus 27:22-32

22 If the field is bought, and is not of the possession of greater men, that is, of ancestors, and it is hallowed to the Lord, (If a field is bought, and it is not part of a person's ancestral land, and it is holy to the Lord,)
23 the priest shall determine the price by the number of years till to the jubilee, and he that avowed the field shall give the price thereof to the Lord; (the priest shall determine its value by the number of years until the Jubilee, and he who vowed the field shall pay its value to the Lord;)
24 forsooth in the jubilee it shall turn again to the former lord that sold it, and he shall have it into the heritage of his possession. (but in the Jubilee Year it shall return to the original owner who sold it, and it shall be in the inheritance of his possession.)
25 All the appraising, or value, shall be weighed by the shekel of the saintuary (shall be made with the shekel of the sanctuary); a shekel hath twenty halfpence.
26 No man may hallow and avow the first engendered things that pertain to the Lord, whether it is (an) ox, or (a) sheep, (for) they be the Lord's part.
27 That if the beast is unclean that is avowed, he that offered it shall again-buy it after the value that it is appraised to, and he shall add to (it) the fifth part of the price; (or) if he will not again-buy it, it shall be sold to another man, for as much as it is appraised. (And if the beast that is vowed is unclean, he who offered it can buy it back for the value that it is appraised for, and he shall add to it the fifth part of its value; or if he will not buy it back, it shall be sold to another man, for the value that it is appraised for.)
28 All thing that is hallowed to the Lord, whether it is man, or beast, (or) whether (the) field of his heritage, it shall not be sold, neither it shall be able to be again-bought; whatever thing is hallowed once, it shall be holy of holy things to the Lord, (Everything that is dedicated to the Lord, whether it is a man, or a beast, or the field of his inheritance, shall not be sold, nor shall it be able to be bought back; once something is dedicated, it shall be a most holy thing to the Lord,)
29 and each hallowing which is offered of man, shall not be again-bought, but it shall die by death. (yea, even a man who is dedicated to the Lord, shall not be able to be bought back, but he shall be put to death.)
30 All the tithes of [the] earth, whether of fruits of corn, whether of apples of trees, be the Lord's part, and be hallowed to him; (All the tithes from the land, whether grain, or the fruits of trees, be the Lord's portion, and be holy to him;)
31 soothly if any man will again-buy his tithes, he shall add to (them) the fifth part of those; (and if anyone will buy back his tithes, he shall add the fifth part to their value;)
32 (yea,) of all the tithes of sheep, and of oxen, and of goats, that pass under the shepherd's rod, whatever thing cometh to the tenth part, it shall be hallowed to the Lord (it shall be holy to the Lord);
