International Standard Version

1Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

1The LORD told Moses,

2“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When a man consecrates by a vow certain persons to the LORD, according to your valuation,

2"Tell the Israelis that when a person makes a special vow based on the appropriate value of people who belong to the LORD,

3if your valuation is of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old, then your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

3if your valuation of the vow is for a male from 20 to 60 years old, the valuation is to be 50 shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

4If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels;

4If she is a female from 20 to 60 years old, then your valuation is to be 30 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

5and if from five years old up to twenty years old, then your valuation for a male shall be twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels;

5If a person is from five to 20 years, then your valuation for a male is to be 20 shekels and for a female ten shekels.

6and if from a month old up to five years old, then your valuation for a male shall be five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver;

6If a person is from one month to five years old, then your valuation for a male is to be five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation is to be three shekels of silver.

7and if from sixty years old and above, if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

7If a person is 60 or more years old, then your valuation for a male is to be fifteen shekels and for a female ten shekels.

8‘But if he is too poor to pay your valuation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall set a value for him; according to the ability of him who vowed, the priest shall value him.

8But if he is too poor to be valuated, then cause him to stand before the priest and let the priest set a value on him according to the ability of the one making the vow.

9‘If it is an animal that men may bring as an offering to the LORD, all that anyone gives to the LORD shall be holy.

9"If it's an animal from which they make an offering to the LORD, everything that he gives to the LORD from it will be holy.

10He shall not substitute it or exchange it, good for bad or bad for good; and if he at all exchanges animal for animal, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be holy.

10He is not to substitute it or exchange it—the good with the bad or the bad with the good. If he ever makes an exchange of an animal for an animal, then it and what's being exchanged is holy.

11If it is an unclean animal which they do not offer as a sacrifice to the LORD, then he shall present the animal before the priest;

11If any animal is unclean, which cannot be brought to the LORD as an offering, make the animal stand in the presence of the priest,

12and the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be.

12then the priest will evaluate it as to whether it is good or bad. According to your—that is, the priest's—valuation, so it is to be.

13But if he wants at all to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth to your valuation.

13If a kinsman redeemer decides to redeem it, then he is to add a fifth to your valuation."

14‘And when a man dedicates his house to be holy to the LORD, then the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand.

14"If a person consecrates his house to be holy to the LORD, then the priest is to set a value for it as to its worth, whether good or bad. As the priest sets value on it, so it will stand.

15If he who dedicated it wants to redeem his house, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.

15And if he that consecrated it wishes to redeem his house, he is to add one fifth to your valuation, after which it is to belong to him.

16‘If a man dedicates to the LORD part of a field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. A homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

16"If a person consecrates to the LORD a portion of the field from his inheritance, then your valuation is to be based on its capacity for yielding a harvest. Each omer of barley is to be valued at 50 shekels of silver.

17If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand.

17If he consecrates his field in the year of jubilee, it is to be based on your valuation.

18But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the money due according to the years that remain till the Year of Jubilee, and it shall be deducted from your valuation.

18If he consecrates his field after the jubilee, then the priest is to account to him the silver according to the years that remain until the year of jubilee, with a deduction corresponding to your valuation.

19And if he who dedicates the field ever wishes to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall belong to him.

19"If the one who consecrated the field intends to redeem it, then he is to add one fifth of your valuation to it in silver, then it is to be established as his.

20But if he does not want to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore;

20But if he won't redeem the field, but instead sells it to another person, then it is not to be redeemed anymore.

21but the field, when it is released in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the LORD, as a devoted field; it shall be the possession of the priest.

21When the field is released in the jubilee, it will be holy to the LORD. As a field that's devoted, it is to belong to the priest as his inheritance.

22‘And if a man dedicates to the LORD a field which he has bought, which is not the field of his possession,

22If he consecrates a field that he had bought and that isn't part of his inheritance,

23then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your valuation on that day as a holy offering to the LORD.

23then the priest is to account to him the evaluated worth until the year of jubilee. Then he is to give the amount of valuation on that day as a holy gift to the LORD.

24In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to the one who owned the land as a possession.

24During the year of jubilee, the field is to be returned by the one who originally sold it—that is, to the owner of the land.

25And all your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs to the shekel.

25Every valuation is to be according to the shekel of the sanctuary, evaluated at 20 gerahs to the shekel.

26‘But the firstborn of the animals, which should be the LORD’s firstborn, no man shall dedicate; whether it is an ox or sheep, it is the LORD’s.

26"No person is to consecrate the firstborn, because the firstborn of the animals already belongs to the LORD. Whether ox or goat, it belongs to the LORD.

27And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall redeem it according to your valuation, and shall add one-fifth to it; or if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.

27If it's an unclean animal, then he is to ransom it according to your valuation, adding a fifth to it. If it's not redeemed, then it is to be sold according to your valuation.

28‘Nevertheless no devoted offering that a man may devote to the LORD of all that he has, both man and beast, or the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted offering is most holy to the LORD.

28However, any devoted thing that a person consecrates to the LORD from what he owns—whether man, animals, or inherited fields—is not to be sold or redeemed. Any devoted thing is most sacred. It belongs to the LORD.

29No person under the ban, who may become doomed to destruction among men, shall be redeemed, but shall surely be put to death.

29But anyone who is completely devoted from among human beings is not to be ransomed. He is certainly to be put to death.

30And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD’s. It is holy to the LORD.

30"Any tithes of the land—from grain grown on the land or from fruit grown on the trees—belong to the LORD. They are sacred to the LORD.

31If a man wants at all to redeem any of his tithes, he shall add one-fifth to it.

31But if a person wishes to redeem his tithe, he is to add a fifth to it.

32And concerning the tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the LORD.

32All the tithes from cattle and flocks that pass under the measuring rod are sacred to the LORD.

33He shall not inquire whether it is good or bad, nor shall he exchange it; and if he exchanges it at all, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.’ ”

33He is not to examine it to see if it's good or bad or even exchange it. If he does exchange it, what has been exchanged as well as its substitute is sacred. It is not to be redeemed."

34These are the commandments which the LORD commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount Sinai.

34These are the commands that the LORD commanded Moses to deliver to the Israelis on Mount Sinai.
