Leviticus 27

Good News Translation GNT

1 The Lord gave Moses

2 the following regulations for the people of Israel. When any of you have been given to the Lord in fulfillment of a special vow, you may be set free by the payment of the following sums of money,

3 according to the official standard: -adult male, twenty to sixty years old: 50 pieces of silver -adult female: 30 pieces of silver -young male, five to twenty years old: 20 pieces of silver -young female: 10 pieces of silver -infant male under five: 5 pieces of silver -infant female: 3 pieces of silver -male above sixty years of age: 15 pieces of silver -female above sixty: 10 pieces of silver

8 If any of you make a vow and are too poor to pay the standard price, you shall bring the person to the priest, and the priest will set a lower price, according to your ability to pay.

9 If your vow concerns an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the Lord, then every gift made to the Lord is sacred,

10 and you may not substitute another animal for it. If you do, both animals belong to the Lord.

11 But if your vow concerns a ritually unclean animal, which is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord, you shall take the animal to the priest.

12 The priest shall set a price for it, according to its good or bad qualities, and the price will be final.

13 If you wish to buy it back, you must pay the price plus an additional 20 percent.

14 When any of you dedicate your house to the Lord, the priest shall set the price according to its good or bad points, and the price will be final.

15 If you wish to buy your house back, you must pay the price plus an additional 20 percent.

16 If any of you dedicate part of your land to the Lord, the price shall be set according to the amount of seed it takes to sow it, at the rate of ten pieces of silver per bushel of barley.

17 If you dedicate the land immediately after a Year of Restoration, the full price applies.

18 If you dedicate it any time later, the priest shall estimate the cash value according to the number of years left until the next Year of Restoration, and set a reduced price.

19 If you wish to buy your field back, you must pay the price plus an additional 20 percent.

20 If you sell the field to someone else without first buying it back from the Lord, you lose the right to buy it back.

21 At the next Year of Restoration the field will become the Lord's permanent property; it shall belong to the priests.

22 If you dedicate to the Lord a field that you have bought,

23 the priest shall estimate its value according to the number of years until the next Year of Restoration, and you must pay the price that very day; the money belongs to the Lord.

24 At the Year of Restoration the field shall be returned to the original owner or to the descendants.

25 All prices shall be set according to the official standard.

26 The first-born of an animal already belongs to the Lord, so no one may dedicate it to him as a freewill offering. A calf, a lamb, or a kid belongs to the Lord,

27 but the first-born of an unclean animal may be bought back at the standard price plus an additional 20 percent. If it is not bought back, it may be sold to someone else at the standard price.

28 None of you may sell or buy back what you have unconditionally dedicated to the Lord, whether it is a human being, an animal, or land. It belongs permanently to the Lord.

29 Not even human beings who have been unconditionally dedicated may be bought back; they must be put to death.

30 One tenth of all the produce of the land, whether grain or fruit, belongs to the Lord.

31 If you wish to buy any of it back, you must pay the standard price plus an additional 20 percent.

32 One of every ten domestic animals belongs to the Lord. When the animals are counted, every tenth one belongs to the Lord.

33 You may not arrange the animals so that the poor animals are chosen, and you may not make any substitutions. If you do substitute one animal for another, then both animals will belong to the Lord and may not be bought back.

34 These are the commands that the Lord gave Moses on Mount Sinai for the people of Israel.

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, When a man shall accomplish a vow, the persons shall be for Yahweh by your estimation.

3 Your estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even to sixty years old, even your estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

8 But if he be poorer than your estimation, 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 be a animal, whereof men offer an offering to Yahweh, all that any man gives of such to Yahweh shall be 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 be any unclean animal, of which they do not offer an offering to Yahweh, then he shall set the animal before the priest;

12 and the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as you the priest value it, so shall it be.

13 But if he will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of it to your estimation.

14 When a man shall sanctify his house to be holy to Yahweh, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.

15 If he who sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your estimation to it, and it shall be his.

16 If a man shall sanctify to Yahweh part of the field of his possession, then your estimation shall be according to the sowing of it: the sowing of a homer of barley [shall be valued] at fifty shekels of silver.

17 If he sanctify his field from the year of jubilee, according to your estimation it shall stand.

18 But if he sanctify 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 estimation.

19 If he who sanctified the field will indeed redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your estimation to it, and it shall be assured to him.

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; the possession of it shall be the priest's.

22 If he sanctify 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 estimation to the year of jubilee: and he shall give your estimation in that day, as a holy thing to Yahweh.

24 In the year of jubilee the field shall return to him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land belongs.

25 All your estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26 Only the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to Yahweh, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox or sheep, it is Yahweh's.

27 If it be of an unclean animal, then he shall ransom it according to your estimation, and shall add to it the fifth part of it: or if it isn't redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your estimation.

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 tree, is Yahweh's: it is holy to Yahweh.

31 If a man will redeem anything of his tithe, he shall add to it the fifth part of it.

32 All the tithe of the herd or the flock, whatever passes under the rod, the tenth shall be holy to Yahweh.

33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change 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 in Mount Sinai.
