Leviticus 27:21-34 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

21. but the field, when it is released in the Jubilee, is set-apart to יהוה as a dedicated field, to be the possession of the priest.

22. ‘And if a man sets apart to יהוה a field which he has bought, which is not the field of his possession,

23. then the priest shall reckon to him the amount of your evaluation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your evaluation on that day, set-apart to יהוה.

24. ‘In the Year of Jubilee the field returns to him from whom he bought it, to him whose is the possession of the land.

25. ‘And all your evaluations is to be according to the sheqel of the set-apart place: twenty gĕrahs to the sheqel.

26. ‘However, a first-born of the beasts, which is first-born to יהוה, no man sets it apart – whether bull or sheep, it belongs to יהוה.

27. ‘And if among the unclean beasts, then he shall ransom it according to your evaluation, and shall add one-fifth to it. And if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your evaluation.

28. ‘However, whatever a man lays under ban for יהוה of all that he has, man and beast, or the field of his possession, is not sold or redeemed. Whatever is laid under ban is most set-apart to יהוה.

29. ‘No one under the ban, under the ban among men, is ransomed, but shall certainly be put to death.

30. ‘And all the tithe of the land – of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree – belongs to יהוה. It is set-apart to יהוה.

31. ‘If a man indeed redeems any of his tithes, he adds one-fifth to it.

32. ‘And the entire tithe of the herd and of the flock, all that passes under the rod, the tenth one is set-apart to יהוה.

33. ‘He does not inquire whether it is good or spoilt, nor does he exchange it. And if he exchanges it at all, then both it and the one exchanged for it are set-apart, it is not redeemed.’ ”

34. These are the commands which יהוה commanded Mosheh for the children of Yisra’ĕl on Mount Sinai.
