लेवी 27

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: The man that shall have made a vow, and promised his soul to God, shall give the price according to estimation.

3If it be a man from twenty years old unto sixty years old, he shall give fifty sides of silver, after the weight of the sanctuary:

4If a woman, thirty.

5But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a man shall give twenty sicles: a woman ten.

6From one month until the fifth year. for a male shall be given five sides: for a female three.

7A man that is sixty years old or upward, shall give fifteen aisles: a woman ten.

8If he be poor, and not able to pay tile estimation, he shall stand before tile priest: and as much as he shall value him at, and see him able to pay, so much shall he give.

9But a beast that may be sacrificed to the Lord, if ally one shall vow, shall be holy,

10And cannot be changed, that is to say, neither a better for a worse, nor a worse for a better. And if he shall change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be consecrated to the Lord.

11An unclean beast, which cannot be sacrificed to the Lord, if my man shall vow, shall be brought before the priest:

12Who judging whether it be good or bad, shall set the price:

13Which if he that offereth it will give, he shall add above the estimation the fifth part.

14If a man shall vow his house, and sanctify it to the Lord, the priest shall consider it, whether it be good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price, which he shall appoint.

15But if he that vowed, will redeem it, he shall give the fifth part of the estimation over and above, and shall have the house.

16And if he vow the field of his possession, and consecrate it to the Lord, the price shall be rated according to the measure of the seed. If the ground be sowed with thirty bushels of barley, let it be sold for fifty sides of silver.

17If he vow his field immediately from the year of jubilee that is beginning, as much as it may be worth, at so much it shall be rated.

18But if some time after, the priest shall reckon the money according to the number of years that remain until the jubilee, and the price shall be abated.

19And if he that had vowed, will redeem his field, he shall add the fifth part of the money of the estimation, and shall possess it.

20And if he will not redeem it, but it be sold to any other man, he that vowed it, may not redeem it any more:

21For when the day of jubilee cometh, it shall be sanctified to the Lord, and as a possession consecrated, pertaineth to the right of the priests.

22If a field that was bought, and not of a man’s ancestors’ possession, be sanctified to the Lord,

23The priest shall reckon the price according to the number of years: unto the jubilee: and he that had vowed, shall give that to the Lord.

24But in the jubilee, it shall return to the former owner, who had sold it, and had it in the lot of his possession.

25All estimation shall be made according to the side of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.

26The firstborn, which belong to the Lord, no man may sanctify and vow: whether it be bullock, or sheep, they are the Lord’s.

27And if it be an unclean beast, he that offereth it shall redeem it, according to thy estimation, and shall add the fifth part of the price. If he will not redeem it, it shall be sold to another for how much soever it was estimated by thee.

28Any thing that is devoted to the Lord, whether it be man, or beast, or field, shall not be sold, neither may it be redeemed. Whatsoever is once consecrated shall be holy of holies to the Lord.

29And any consecration that is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but dying shall die.

30All tithes of the land, whether of corn, or of the fruits of trees, are the Lord’s, and are sanctified to him.

31And if any man will redeem his tithes, he shall add the fifth part of them.

32Of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, that pass under the shepherd’s rod, every tenth that cometh shall be sanctified to the Lord.

33It shall not be chosen neither good nor bad, neither shall it be changed for another. If any man change it: both that which was changed, and that for which it was changed, shall be sanctified to the Lord, and shall not be redeemed.

34These are the precepts which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.

1Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

2Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Homo qui votum fecerit, et spoponderit Deo animam suam, sub æstimatione dabit pretium.

3Si fuerit masculus a vigesimo anno usque ad sexagesimum annum, dabit quinquaginta siclos argenti ad mensuram sanctuarii:

4si mulier, triginta.

5A quinto autem anno usque ad vigesimum, masculus dabit viginti siclos: femina, decem.

6Ab uno mense usque ad annum quintum, pro masculo dabuntur quinque sicli: pro femina, tres.

7Sexagenarius et ultra masculus dabit quindecim siclos: femina, decem.

8Si pauper fuerit, et æstimationem reddere non valebit, stabit coram sacerdote: et quantum ille æstimaverit, et viderit eum posse reddere, tantum dabit.

9Animal autem, quod immolari potest Domino, si quis voverit, sanctum erit,

10et mutari non poterit, id est, nec melius malo, nec pejus bono: quod si mutaverit, et ipsum quod mutatum est, et illud pro quo mutatum est, consecratum erit Domino.

11Animal immundum, quod immolari Domino non potest, si quis voverit, adducetur ante sacerdotem:

12qui judicans utrum bonum an malum sit, statuet pretium.

13Quod si dare voluerit is qui offert, addet supra æstimationem quintam partem.

14Homo si voverit domum suam, et sanctificaverit Domino, considerabit eam sacerdos utrum bona an mala sit, et juxta pretium, quod ab eo fuerit constitutum, venundabitur:

15sin autem ille qui voverat, voluerit redimere eam, dabit quintam partem æstimationis supra, et habebit domum.

16Quod si agrum possessionis suæ voverit, et consecraverit Domino, juxta mensuram sementis æstimabitur pretium: si triginta modiis hordei seritur terra, quinquaginta siclis venundetur argenti.

17Si statim ab anno incipientis jubilæi voverit agrum, quanto valere potest, tanto æstimabitur.

18Sin autem post aliquantum temporis, supputabit sacerdos pecuniam juxta annorum, qui reliqui sunt, numerum usque ad jubilæum, et detrahetur ex pretio.

19Quod si voluerit redimere agrum ille qui voverat, addet quintam partem æstimatæ pecuniæ, et possidebit eum.

20Sin autem noluerit redimere, sed alteri cuilibet fuerit venundatus, ultra eum qui voverat redimere non poterit.

21Quia cum jubilæi venerit dies, sanctificatus erit Domino, et possessio consecrata ad jus pertinet sacerdotum.

22Si ager emptus est, et non de possessione majorum sanctificatus fuerit Domino,

23supputabit sacerdos juxta annorum numerum usque ad jubilæum, pretium: et dabit ille qui voverat eum, Domino.

24In jubilæo autem revertetur ad priorem dominum, qui vendiderat eum, et habuerat in sorte possessionis suæ.

25Omnis æstimatio siclo sanctuarii ponderabitur. Siclus viginti obolos habet.

26Primogenita, quæ ad Dominum pertinent, nemo sanctificare poterit et vovere: sive bos, sive ovis fuerit, Domini sunt.

27Quod si immundum est animal, redimet qui obtulit, juxta æstimationem tuam, et addet quintam partem pretii: si redimere noluerit, vendetur alteri quantocumque a te fuerit æstimatum.

28Omne quod Domino consecratur, sive homo fuerit, sive animal, sive ager, non vendetur, nec redimi poterit. Quidquid semel fuerit consecratum, Sanctum sanctorum erit Domino:

29et omnis consecratio, quæ offertur ab homine, non redimetur, sed morte morietur.

30Omnes decimæ terræ, sive de frugibus, sive de pomis arborum, Domini sunt, et illi sanctificantur.

31Si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas, addet quintam partem earum.

32Omnium decimarum bovis et ovis et capræ, quæ sub pastoris virga transeunt, quidquid decimum venerit, sanctificabitur Domino.

33Non eligetur nec bonum nec malum, nec altero commutabitur, si quis mutaverit: et quod mutatum est, et pro quo mutatum est, sanctificabitur Domino, et non redimetur.

34Hæc sunt præcepta, quæ mandavit Dominus Moysi ad filios Israël in monte Sinai.

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: The man who will have made a vow and espoused his soul to God shall give the price according to the estimation.

3If it is a male from twenty years to sixty years, he shall give fifty shekels of silver, by the measure of the Sanctuary;

4if it is a woman, thirty.

5But from the fifth year until the twentieth, a male shall give twenty shekels; a female, ten.

6From one month until the fifth year, for a male, five shekels shall be given; for a female, three.

7At sixty years and beyond, a male shall give fifteen shekels; a female, ten.

8If he is poor, and he does not have the means to pay the estimation, he shall stand before the priest, and however much he will value him and see that he is able to pay, so much shall he give.

9But an animal which could be immolated to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be holy,

10and it cannot be exchanged, that is, neither better for worse, nor worse for better. And if he has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged shall be consecrated to the Lord.

11An unclean animal which could not be sacrificed to the Lord, if anyone has vowed it, shall be led before the priest,

12who, judging whether it is either good or bad, shall set the price.

13But if he who offers it was willing to give, he shall add a fifth part above the estimation.

14If a man has vowed his house, and he has sanctified it to the Lord, the priest shall examine it, whether it is good or bad, and it shall be sold according to the price which he will have established.

15But if he who vowed it was willing to redeem it, he shall give a fifth part beyond the estimation, and he shall have the house.

16But if he has vowed a field of his possession, and has consecrated it to the Lord, the price shall be estimated according to the measure of the seed. If the land would be sown with thirty measures of barley, then let it be sold for fifty shekels of silver.

17If he has vowed his field beginning from the current year of Jubilee, as much as it may be worth, so shall it be estimated.

18But if, after some amount of time, the priest shall evaluate the money according to the number of years that remain until the Jubilee, then the price shall be reduced.

19But if he who had vowed it, was willing to redeem his field, he shall add a fifth part of the money to the estimation, and then he shall possess it.

20But if he is not willing to redeem it, then it shall be sold to any other; he who vowed it is no longer able to redeem it.

21For when the day of Jubilee arrives, it shall be sanctified to the Lord. And as a possession that has been consecrated, it rightfully belongs to the priest.

22If a field has been bought, and it is not from the possession of ancestors, it shall be sanctified to the Lord.

23The priest shall evaluate the price according to the number of years until the Jubilee; and the one who had vowed it shall give to the Lord.

24Then, in the Jubilee, it shall be returned to the former owner, the one who had sold it and who had held it within the lot of his possession.

25All estimation shall be weighed according to the shekel of the Sanctuary. A shekel has twenty obols.

26The firstborn, which belong to the Lord, no one is able to sanctify or vow, whether it is an ox, or a sheep, they are for the Lord.

27But if it is an unclean animal, whoever offers it shall redeem it, according to your estimation, and he shall add a fifth part to the price. If he is not willing to redeem it, it shall be sold to another for whatever amount it was estimated by you.

28All that is consecrated to the Lord, whether it is a man, or an animal, or a field, shall not be sold; neither is it able to be redeemed. Anything, once it has been consecrated, shall be the Holy of holies to the Lord.

29And all that has been consecrated, which is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but shall surely die.

30All the tithes of the land, whether from the grain, or from the fruits of trees, are for the Lord and are sanctified to him.

31But if anyone is willing to redeem his tithes, he shall add a fifth part to them.

32Out of all the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and goats, which cross under the rod of the shepherd, every tenth one that arrives shall be sanctified to the Lord.

33It shall not be chosen by what is good or bad; neither shall it be exchanged for another. If anyone has exchanged it, both that which was exchanged, and that for which it was exchanged, shall be sanctified to the Lord and shall not be redeemed.

34These are the precepts, which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel on mount Sinai.
