Instructions About Vows

27Then[fn] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2“Speak to the Israelites,[fn] and say[fn] to them, ‘When a man makes a vow according to your[fn] proper value of persons to Yahweh, 3if[fn] your proper value is for a male[fn] from twenty years of age[fn] up to[fn] sixty years of age,[fn] then[fn] your proper value shall be fifty shekels of money according to the sanctuary’s shekel. 4But[fn] if it is for a female, then[fn] your proper value shall be thirty shekels. 5And if from five years of age[fn] up to[fn] twenty years of age,[fn] then[fn] your proper value shall be twenty shekels for the male and ten shekels for the female. 6And if from a month of age[fn] up to[fn] five years of age,[fn] then[fn] your proper value shall be five shekels of money for the male, and your proper value for the female shall be three shekels of money. 7And if from sixty years of age[fn] and above: if a male, then[fn] your proper value shall be fifteen shekels; and for the female, ten shekels. 8But[fn] if he is poorer than your proper value, then[fn] he shall present himself before[fn] the priest, and the priest shall set a value on him; the priest shall value him according to[fn] what the person who made a vow can afford.[fn]

9“ ‘And if it is a domestic animal from which they present an offering for Yahweh, all that he gives from it for Yahweh shall be a holy object. 10He shall not replace it, nor shall he exchange it, either good with bad or bad with good; and if he indeed exchanges a domestic animal with a domestic animal, then[fn] it and its substitution shall be a holy object.[fn] 11But[fn] if it is any unclean animal from which they may not present an offering for Yahweh, then[fn] he shall present the animal before[fn] the priest. 12And the priest shall set a value on it, either good or bad;[fn] as the priest sets your proper value, so it shall be. 13And if he indeed wants to redeem it, then[fn] he shall add a fifth of it onto your proper value.

14“ ‘And if a man consecrates his house as a holy object for Yahweh, then[fn] the priest shall set a value on it, either good or bad;[fn] just as the priest sets a value on it, so it shall remain. 15But[fn] if the one who consecrates it wants to redeem his house, then[fn] he shall add a fifth of your proper value’s money onto it, and it shall be his.

16“ ‘And if a man consecrates some of[fn] his property’s fields[fn] for Yahweh, then[fn] your proper value shall be in accordance with its seed requirements:[fn] a homer of barley seed for fifty shekels of money. 17If he consecrates his field from the Year of Jubilee, it shall stand as your proper value. 18But[fn] if he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, then[fn] the priest shall calculate the money for him according to the number of years[fn] that are left over until the Year of Jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your proper value. 19And if he indeed redeems the field that is consecrated, then[fn] he shall add a fifth of your proper value’s money onto it, and it shall stand for[fn] him. 20And if he does not redeem the field and if he sells the field to another man, it may not be redeemed again, 21and the field shall be a holy object for Yahweh when it goes out[fn] in the Jubilee, like a devoted[fn] field; it shall be the priest’s property.[fn]

22“ ‘And if he consecrates for Yahweh his acquired[fn] field that is not the field of his inherited possession, 23then[fn] the priest shall calculate for him the amount[fn] of your proper value until the year of the Jubilee, and he shall give your proper value on that day as a holy object for Yahweh. 24In the Year of the Jubilee the field shall return to the one who bought it from him, to the one whose property the land is. 25And every proper value of yours shall be in the sanctuary’s shekel—the shekel shall be twenty gerahs.

26“ ‘However, a man shall not consecrate a firstborn among livestock, which belongs as firstborn to Yahweh; whether an ox or[fn] small livestock, it is for Yahweh. 27And if it is among the unclean animals, then[fn] he shall ransom it according to your proper value, and he shall add a fifth of its value onto it; and if it is not redeemed, then[fn] it shall be sold according to your proper value. 28However, anything devoted[fn] that a man has devoted to Yahweh from all that he has,[fn] from human or[fn] animal, or[fn] from the field of his property, may not be sold, and it may not be redeemed; anything devoted is a most holy thing[fn] for Yahweh. 29Anyone devoted who is devoted from human beings[fn] cannot be ransomed—he shall surely be put to death.

30“ ‘And any tithe of the land from the land’s seed or from the fruit of the trees is for Yahweh; it is a holy object for Yahweh. 31And if a man indeed redeems from his tithe, he shall add a fifth of its value onto it. 32As for[fn] every tithe of cattle or[fn] of the flock,[fn] all which crosses under the rod, the tenth shall be a holy object for Yahweh. 33He shall not inspect between the good and the bad, and he shall not exchange it; but[fn] if he indeed exchanges it, then[fn] it and its substitution shall be[fn] a holy object—it shall not be redeemed.’ ”

34These are the commands that Yahweh commanded Moses for the Israelites[fn] on Mount Sinai.[fn]
