¹⁴ “Everything in Israel that is ·given to the Lord [devoted; ^Cset aside for God] is yours. ¹⁵ The ·first one born [^Lone that opens the womb] to any family, whether people or animals, will be offered to the Lord. And that will be yours. But you must ·make a payment for [ransom; redeem] every firstborn child and every firstborn animal that is unclean [^Cin a ritual sense]. ¹⁶ When they are one month old, you ·must make a payment for [ransom; redeem] them of ·two ounces [^Lfive shekels, that is twenty gerahs] of silver, as set by the Holy Place measure [3:40–50; Ex. 13:2, 11–16].
