UST LEV Chapter 27

LEV 27 ©

27Yahweh also said to Moses, 2“Tell the Israelites these things for me: ‘If a man solemnly promises to set apart another person to belong only to Yahweh, Yahweh will be willing to set that person free from having to do that if the responsible man pays the priest an amount of money. 3The priest must calculate the amount of money in terms of the silver pieces that they use in Yahweh’s sacred tent.

You must pay:

50 pieces of silver for men who are between 20 and 60 years old;

430 pieces of silver for adult women who are between 20 and 60 years old;

520 pieces of silver for young men who are between 5 and 20 years old;

10 pieces of silver for young women who are between 5 and 20 years old;

65 pieces of silver for boys who are between 1 month and 5 years old;

3 pieces of silver for girls who are between 1 month and 5 years old;

715 pieces of silver for men who are more than 60 years old;

and 10 pieces of silver for women who are more than 60 years old.

8If anyone who has made such a solemn promise is very poor and unable to pay to set free the person whom he has given to Yahweh, he must take that person to the priest. The priest will set the price for freeing him to an amount that the person can pay.

9If someone solemnly promises Yahweh to give him an animal that is acceptable to him, that animal becomes very special to Yahweh; it belongs to him alone. 10The person who promised to give it must not give another animal instead of the one that he promised. He must not substitute a bad one for a good one or even a better one than the one offered. If he tries to do that, both animals will become dedicated to Yahweh. 11If the animal that he wishes to give to Yahweh is a kind that is unacceptable as an offering, he must take the animal to the priest. 12The priest then will decide what its value is, according to the animal’s quality. Whatever value the priest sets will be the value, and that is the price of the animal. 13If the man who gave the animal later decides that he wants to buy it back, he must pay to the priest that price plus an added one-fifth.

14Similarly, if someone dedicates his house, setting it apart for the honor of Yahweh, the priest will decide how much it is worth, which will depend on the house’s condition. Whatever the priest says that it is worth, that will be its value. 15If a man sets apart his house for the honor of Yahweh, but later he wants to buy it back, he must pay that price plus an added one-fifth, and then the house will belong to him again.

16If someone sets apart some of the property that belongs to him and his family for the honor of Yahweh, its value will be determined by the quantity of seed that would be needed to sow that entire tract of land. It will be 50 pieces of silver for each 220 liters of seed. 17If he dedicates the field during the year for restoring, its value will be the full amount. 18But if he dedicates his field after the restoration year, the priest will calculate the remaining years to the next one and lower the price accordingly. 19If the person who dedicated the field later wants to buy it back, he must pay back the field’s price plus an added one-fifth. Then the field will belong to that man again. 20However, if he does not buy it back, or if he also sells it to someone else, he may never buy it back again. 21When the year for restoring comes, Yahweh will claim the field permanently as his holy property, and the priest will receive it.

22If someone dedicates some land that he has bought to Yahweh, land which is not part of the land that his family has always owned, 23the priest must count the number of years until the next year of restoring to determine how much it is worth. The man must pay that amount to the priest on that day. His payment is a holy gift to Yahweh. 24However, in the year for restoring, he will restore the land to the person from whom he bought it, the person whose family had always owned that land. 25The priest must always calculate the amount of money in terms of the silver pieces called shekels that they use in Yahweh’s sacred tent. One piece called a shekel is equal to 20 smaller pieces called gerahs.

26Since firstborn animals already belong to Yahweh, no one may dedicate the firstborn of any cow or sheep for any purpose. 27If someone gives Yahweh a firstborn animal that is not one of the acceptable kinds, he may buy it back by paying its standard price plus an added one-fifth of its value. If he does not buy it back, the priest must sell it for its standard price.

28However, if someone permanently dedicates anything he owns like a person, animal, or family land to Yahweh, you must not restore it or sell it. Anything that you permanently dedicate becomes Yahweh’s especially sacred property.

29You will not let anyone live from the people whom Yahweh has commanded you to completely destroy. You must execute them all.

30One tenth of all the crops and grain or fruit that is produced on anyone’s land is sacred and belongs to Yahweh. 31If anyone wants to buy back any of that tenth, he must pay to the priest what it is worth plus an added one-fifth. 32One of every ten domestic animals belongs to Yahweh. When someone counts his cattle and sheep as they pass under his walking stick, he must set aside every tenth one for Yahweh. 33When he does that, he must not pick out the good ones or leave the bad ones or substitute bad ones for good ones. If he tries to substitute one animal for another, he must set aside both animals for Yahweh, and he may not buy them back.’ ”

34Those are the commands that Yahweh gave to Moses on Mount Sinai to tell to the Israelites.
