Seeker Overlay ON

* And Jehovah spoke to Moses , saying , * Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them , When any one devoteth [anything ] by a vow , the persons shall be for Jehovah according to thy valuation . * And thy valuation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old : thy valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver , after the shekel of the sanctuary ; * and if it be of a female , thy valuation shall be thirty shekels . * And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old , thy valuation of the male shall be twenty shekels , and for the female ten shekels . * And if it be from a month old even unto five years old , thy valuation of the male shall be five shekels of silver ; and for the female thy valuation shall be three shekels of silver . * And if it be from sixty years old and above , if it be a male , thy valuation shall be fifteen shekels ; and for the female ten shekels . * And if he be poorer than thy valuation , he shall present himself before the priest , and the priest shall value him : according to his means that vowed shall the priest value him . * And if it be a beast whereof men bring an offering unto Jehovah , all that they give of such unto Jehovah shall be holy . * They shall not alter it nor change it , a good for a bad , or a bad for a good ; and if he at all change beast for beast , then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy . * And if it be any unclean beast , of which they do not bring an offering unto Jehovah , then he shall present the beast before the priest ; * and the priest shall value it , [judging ] between good and bad : according to the valuation of the priest , so shall it be . * And if they will in any wise redeem it , then they shall add a fifth [part ] thereof unto thy valuation . * And when any one halloweth his house , that it may be holy to Jehovah , the priest shall value it , [judging ] between good and bad : as the priest shall value it , so shall it stand . * And if he that halloweth it will redeem his house , he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it , and it shall be his . * And if a man hallow to Jehovah [part ] of a field of his possession , thy valuation shall be according to what may be sown in it : the homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver . * If he hallow his field from the year of jubilee , according to thy valuation shall it stand ; * but if he hallow his field after the jubilee , then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain , until the year of the jubilee ; and there shall be a reduction from thy valuation . * And if he that hallowed the field will in any wise redeem it , he shall add the fifth of the money of thy valuation unto it , and it shall be assured to him ; * but if he do not redeem the field , or if he sell the field to another man , it cannot be redeemed any more ; * and the field , when it goeth out in the jubilee , shall be holy to Jehovah , as a field devoted ; the possession thereof shall be the priest 's . * And if he hallow to Jehovah a field that he hath bought , which is not of the fields of his possession , * the priest shall reckon unto him the amount of thy valuation , unto the year of the jubilee ; and he shall give thy valuation on that day , [as ] holy to Jehovah . * In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought -- to him to whom the land belonged . * And all thy valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary : twenty gerahs shall be the shekel . * Only the firstling which is offered as firstling to Jehovah among the cattle , that shall no man hallow , whether it be ox or sheep ; it is Jehovah 's . * But if it be of an unclean beast , then he shall ransom it according to thy valuation , and shall add a fifth of it thereto ; and if it be not redeemed , it shall be sold according to thy valuation . * Notwithstanding , no devoted thing that a man hath devoted to Jehovah of all that he hath , of man or beast , or of the field of his possession , shall be sold or redeemed : every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah . * Nothing devoted , which shall be devoted from among men , shall be ransomed : it shall certainly be put to death . * And as to every tithe of the land , of the seed of the land , and of the fruit of the tree , it is Jehovah 's : it is holy to Jehovah . * And if any one will at all redeem of his tithes , he shall add thereto the fifth thereof . * And as to every tithe of the herd , or of the flock , of whatever passeth under the rod , the tenth shall be holy to Jehovah . * 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 exchange thereof shall be holy ; it shall not be redeemed . * These are the commandments which Jehovah commanded Moses for the children of Israel upon mount Sinai .
