And the
Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
02 Speak unto the children of Israel, and
say unto them, When a man shall make a singular
vow, the persons shall be for the Lord by thy
estimation.
03 And thy estimation shall be of the male
from twenty years old even unto sixty years old,
even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of
silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
04 And if it be a female, then thy
estimation shall be thirty shekels.
05 And if it be from five years old even
unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall
be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female
ten shekels.
06 And if it be from a month old even unto
five years old, then thy estimation shall be of
the male five shekels of silver, and for the
female thy estimation shall be three shekels of
silver.
07 And if it be from sixty years old and
above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall
be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten
shekels.
08 But if he be poorer than thy estimation,
then he shall present himself before the priest,
and the priest shall value him; according to his
ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
09 And if it be a beast, whereof men bring
an offering unto the Lord, all that any man
giveth of such unto the Lord 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 beast for beast, then it and
the exchange thereof shall be holy.
11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which
they do not offer a sacrifice unto the Lord, then
he shall present the beast before the priest:
12 And the priest shall value it, whether
it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art
the priest, so shall it be.
13 But if he will at all redeem it, then he
shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy
estimation.
14 And when a man shall sanctify his house
to be holy unto the Lord, then the priest shall
estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the
priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
15 And if he that sanctified it will redeem
his house, then he shall add the fifth part of
the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall
be his.
16 And if a man shall sanctify unto the
Lord some part of a field of his possession, then
thy estimation shall be according to the seed
thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued
at fifty shekels of silver.
17 If he sanctify his field from the year
of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall
stand.
18 But if he sanctify his field after the
jubile, then the priest shall reckon unto him the
money according to the years that remain, even
unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be
abated from thy estimation.

19 And if he that sanctified the field will
in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the
fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto
it, and it shall be assured to him.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or
if he have sold the field to another man, it
shall not be redeemed any more.
21 But the field, when it goeth out in the
jubile, shall be holy unto the Lord, as a field
devoted; the possession thereof shall be the
priest's.
22 And if a man sanctify unto the Lord a
field which he hath bought, which is not of the
fields of his possession;
23 Then the priest shall reckon unto him
the worth of thy estimation, even unto the year
of the jubile: and he shall give thine estimation
in that day, as a holy thing unto the Lord.
24 In the year of the jubile the field
shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even
to him to whom the possession of the land did
belong.
25 And all thy estimations shall be
according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty
gerahs shall be the shekel.
26 Only the firstling of the beasts, which
should be the Lord's firstling, no man shall
sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is
the Lord's.
27 And if it be of an unclean beast, then
he shall redeem it according to thine estimation,
and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if
it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold
according to thy estimation.
28 Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a
man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he
hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of
his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every
devoted thing is most holy unto the Lord.
29 None devoted, which shall be devoted of
men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put
to death.
30 And all the tithe of the land, whether
of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the
tree, is the Lord's: it is holy unto the Lord.
31 And if a man will at all redeem ought of
his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part
thereof.
32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or
of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under
the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord.
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 the change
thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
34 These are the commandments, which the
Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel
in mount Sinai.
