Leviticus 27:28-34

28 omne quod Domino consecratur sive homo fuerit sive animal sive ager non veniet nec redimi poterit quicquid semel fuerit consecratum sanctum sanctorum erit Domino
29 et omnis consecratio quae offertur ab homine non redimetur sed morte morietur
30 omnes decimae terrae sive de frugibus sive de pomis arborum Domini sunt et illi sanctificantur
31 si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas addet quintam partem earum
32 omnium decimarum boves et oves et caprae quae sub pastoris virga transeunt quicquid decimum venerit sanctificabitur Domino
33 non eligetur nec bonum nec malum nec altero commutabitur si quis mutaverit et quod mutatum est et pro quo mutatum est sanctificabitur Domino et non redimetur
34 haec sunt praecepta quae mandavit Dominus Mosi ad filios Israhel in monte Sinai
