Leviticus 27:5-16 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

5. And if from five years of age up to twenty years of age, then your proper value shall be twenty shekels for the male and ten shekels for the female.

6. And if from a month of age up to five years of age, then your proper value shall be five shekels of money for the male, and your proper value for the female shall be three shekels of money.

7. And if from sixty years of age and above: if a male, then your proper value shall be fifteen shekels; and for the female, ten shekels.

8. But if he is poorer than your proper value, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall set a value on him; the priest shall value him according to what the person who made a vow can afford.

9. “ ‘And if it is a domestic animal from which they present an offering for Yahweh, all that he gives from it for Yahweh shall be a holy object.

10. He shall not replace it, nor shall he exchange it, either good with bad or bad with good; and if he indeed exchanges a domestic animal with a domestic animal, then it and its substitution shall be a holy object.

11. But if it is any unclean animal from which they may not present an offering for Yahweh, then he shall present the animal before the priest.

12. And the priest shall set a value on it, either good or bad; as the priest sets your proper value, so it shall be.

13. And if he indeed wants to redeem it, then he shall add a fifth of it onto your proper value.

14. “ ‘And if a man consecrates his house as a holy object for Yahweh, then the priest shall set a value on it, either good or bad; just as the priest sets a value on it, so it shall remain.

15. But if the one who consecrates it wants to redeem his house, then he shall add a fifth of your proper value’s money onto it, and it shall be his.

16. “ ‘And if a man consecrates some of his property’s fields for Yahweh, then your proper value shall be in accordance with its seed requirements: a homer of barley seed for fifty shekels of money.
