New Testament

Leviticus 27:3-14 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

3. If it is a male from twenty years to sixty years, he shall give fifty shekels of silver, by the measure of the Sanctuary;

4. if it is a woman, thirty.

5. But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a male shall give twenty shekels; a female, ten.

6. From one month until the fifth year, for a male, five shekels shall be given; for a female, three.

7. At sixty years and beyond, a male shall give fifteen shekels; a female, ten.

8. If he is poor, and he does not have the means to pay the estimation, he shall stand before the priest, and however much he will value him and see that he is able to pay, so much shall he give.

9. But an animal which could be immolated to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be holy,

10. and it cannot be exchanged, that is, neither better for worse, nor worse for better. And if he has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged shall be consecrated to the Lord.

11. An unclean animal which could not be sacrificed to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be led before the priest,

12. who, judging whether it is either good or bad, shall set the price.

13. But if he who offers it was willing to give, he shall add a fifth part above the estimation.

14. If a man has vowed his house, and he has sanctified it to the Lord, the priest shall examine it, whether it is good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price which he will have established.
