Leviticus 27:24-31 American Standard Version (ASV)

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

25. And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.

26. Only the firstling among beasts, which is made a firstling to Jehovah, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox or sheep, it is Jehovah’s.

27. And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall ransom it according to thine estimation, and shall add unto it the fifth part thereof: 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 Jehovah of all that he hath, whether of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto Jehovah.

29. No one devoted, that shall be devoted from among men, shall be ransomed; he 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 Jehovah’s: it is holy unto Jehovah.

31. And if a man will redeem aught of his tithe, he shall add unto it the fifth part thereof.
