Leviticus 27:21-26 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

21. If you don’t buy the land back by the year of Jubilee, the field will remain holy to the Lord—it will belong to the priest forever. It will be treated like any other thing that was given completely to the Lord.

22. “If you dedicate a field to the Lord that you had bought, and it is not a part of your family’s property,

23. then the priest must count the years to the year of Jubilee and decide the price for the land. Then that land will belong to the Lord.

24. At the year of Jubilee, the land will go to the family that originally owned the land.

25. “You must use the official measure in paying these prices. The shekel by that measure weighs 20 gerahs.

26. “You can give cattle and sheep as special gifts to the Lord. But if the animal is the firstborn, it already belongs to the Lord. So you cannot give these animals as special gifts.
