Redemption of the Tithe
30 “‘Any tithe[a] of the land, from the grain of the land or from the fruit of the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord. 31 If a man redeems[b] part of his tithe, however, he must add one-fifth to it.[c] 32 All the tithe of herds or flocks, everything which passes under the rod, the tenth one will be holy to the Lord.[d]
