利未记 27
Chinese New Version (Simplified)

各种许愿还愿的条例

27 耶和华对摩西说： 2 “你要告诉以色列人，对他们说：如果人许特别的愿，献身给耶和华，就要依照你的估价献身价。 3 你应该这样估价：从二十岁到六十岁的男人，你要按着圣所衡量银子的标准，估价五百五十克银子。 4 如果是女人，你要估价三百四十二克银子。 5 如果是五岁到二十岁，男子的估价是二百二十八克银子，女子是一百一十四克银子。 6 如果是一个月到五岁，男子的估价是五十七克银子，女子是三十四克银子。 7 如果是六十岁以上，男子的估价是一百七十一克银子，女子是一百一十四克银子。 8 那人若是贫穷，不能支付你估定的价，就要把他带到祭司面前，让祭司估定他的价；祭司就按着许愿的人的经济能力，估定他的价。 9 如果所许的是可以献给耶和华为供物的牲畜，献给耶和华的任何牲畜，都要分别为圣。 10 不可更换，也不可代替；无论是好的换坏的，或是坏的换好的，都不可以。如果人一定要以另一只牲畜代替以前所许的牲畜献上，那么以前所许的和用来交换的，都要分别为圣。 11 所许的若是不洁净的牲畜，人不能把牠献给耶和华为供物，就要把牲畜牵到祭司面前； 12 祭司要按牲畜的好坏估价；祭司估价多少，就是多少。 13 如果他一定要把牲畜赎回，就要按你的估价，多付五分之一。

14 “如果有人把房屋分别为圣献给耶和华，祭司要按房屋的好坏估价，祭司估价多少，就定它价值多少。 15 把自己房屋分别为圣的人，如果要赎回房屋，就要按你估定的价银，多加五分之一，房屋才可以归他。

16 “如果有人把自己产业的一部分，分别为圣献给耶和华，你的估价要根据那地的撒种量：每撒大麦二十公斤，估价五百七十克银子。 17 如果他从禧年起，把自己的田地分别为圣，就要按照你的估价定那田地的价值。 18 如果他在禧年以后，把自己的田地分别为圣，祭司就要照着到下一个禧年所剩余的年数，给他计算价银，然后从你的估价减去这价银。 19 把自己田地分别为圣的人，如果一定要赎回田地，就要按你的估价，多付五分之一，田地才可以归他。 20 如果他不赎回田地，而卖给别人，他就再也不能赎回田地了。 21 到了禧年，买主就要交出那地归耶和华为圣，像永属耶和华的圣地一样，归祭司为产业。 22 如果人把买来的田地，不是自己承受为业的田地，分别为圣献给耶和华， 23 祭司就要按照你的估价，给他计算，直到禧年为止；价值多少，他必须当天付给你估定的价银，表示把那地献给耶和华为圣。 24 到了禧年，那地要归还卖主，就是归还那承受那地为业的原主。 25 你的一切估价，都要照着圣所衡量银子的标准。

26 “唯独牲畜的头一胎，无论是牛或是羊，既然头一胎是属于耶和华的，人就不能再把牠分别为圣，因为这本是耶和华的。 27 但如果是不洁净的牲畜，他就要按照你的估价，加上五分之一把牠赎回；如果不赎回，就要按照你的估价卖掉。

28 “一切永属耶和华的圣物，就是人永献给耶和华的物，无论是人或是牲畜，或是他承受作产业的田地，都不可以变卖，也不可以赎回；一切永献之物都是归耶和华为至圣的。 29 如果有人永献牲畜作永属耶和华的圣物，就不可赎回；必须把牠杀死。

什一之物

30 “地上的一切，无论是地上的种子或是树上的果子，十分之一是耶和华的，是归给耶和华为圣的。 31 如果人一定要赎回这十分之一，除物价以外，还要加上五分之一。 32 牛群和羊群的十分之一，就是一切从牧人杖下经过的，每第十只都是归耶和华为圣的。 33 人不可理会是好或是坏，也不可把牠更换；如果一定要更换，本来的与更换的，都要分别为圣，不能赎回。”

34 以上这些就是耶和华在西奈山，为以色列人吩咐摩西的律例。

Leviticus 27
New English Translation

Redemption of Persons Given as Votive Offerings

27 The Lord spoke to Moses: 2 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them, ‘When a man makes a special votive offering[a] based on the conversion value of a person to the Lord,[b] 3 the conversion value of the male[c] from twenty years old up to sixty years old[d] is fifty shekels by the standard of the sanctuary shekel.[e] 4 If the person is a female, the conversion value is thirty shekels. 5 If the person is from five years old up to twenty years old, the conversion value of the male is twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels. 6 If the person is one month old up to five years old, the conversion value of the male is five shekels of silver,[f] and for the female the conversion value is three shekels of silver. 7 If the person is from sixty years old and older, if he is a male the conversion value is fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels. 8 If the person making the votive offering[g] is too poor to pay the conversion value, he must stand the person before the priest and the priest will establish his conversion value;[h] according to what the man who made the votive offering can afford,[i] the priest will establish his conversion value.

Redemption of Animals Given as Votive Offerings

9 “‘If what is vowed is a kind of animal from which an offering may be presented[j] to the Lord, anything which he gives to the Lord from this kind of animal[k] will be holy. 10 He must not replace or exchange it, good for bad or bad for good, and if he does indeed exchange one animal for another animal, then both the original animal[l] and its substitute will be holy. 11 If what is vowed is an unclean animal from which an offering must not be presented to the Lord, then he must stand the animal before the priest, 12 and the priest will establish its conversion value,[m] whether good or bad. According to the conversion value assessed by the priest, thus it will be. 13 If, however, the person who made the vow redeems the animal,[n] he must add one-fifth to[o] its conversion value.

Redemption of Houses Given as Votive Offerings

14 “‘If a man consecrates his house as holy to the Lord, the priest will establish its conversion value, whether good or bad. Just as the priest establishes its conversion value, thus it will stand.[p] 15 If the one who consecrates it redeems his house, he must add to it one-fifth of its conversion value in silver, and it will belong to him.[q]

Redemption of Fields Given as Votive Offerings

16 “‘If a man consecrates to the Lord some of his own landed property, the conversion value must be calculated in accordance with the amount of seed needed to sow it,[r] a homer of barley seed being priced at fifty shekels of silver.[s] 17 If he consecrates his field in the Jubilee year,[t] the conversion value will stand, 18 but if[u] he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, the priest will calculate the price[v] for him according to the years that are left until the next Jubilee year, and it will be deducted from the conversion value. 19 If, however, the one who consecrated the field redeems it,[w] he must add to it one-fifth of the conversion price[x] and it will belong to him.[y] 20 If he does not redeem the field, but sells[z] the field to someone else, he may never redeem it. 21 When it reverts[aa] in the Jubilee, the field will be holy to the Lord like a permanently dedicated field;[ab] it will become the priest’s property.[ac]

22 “‘If he consecrates to the Lord a field he has purchased,[ad] which is not part of his own landed property, 23 the priest will calculate for him the amount of its conversion value until the Jubilee year, and he must pay[ae] the conversion value on that Jubilee day as something that is holy to the Lord. 24 In the Jubilee year the field will return to the one from whom he bought it, the one to whom it belongs as landed property. 25 Every conversion value must be calculated by the standard of the sanctuary shekel;[af] twenty gerahs to the shekel.

Redemption of the Firstborn

26 “‘Surely no man may consecrate a firstborn that already belongs to the Lord as a firstborn among the animals; whether it is an ox or a sheep, it belongs to the Lord.[ag] 27 If, however,[ah] it is among the unclean animals, he may ransom it according to[ai] its conversion value and must add one-fifth to it, but if it is not redeemed it must be sold according to its conversion value.

Things Permanently Dedicated to the Lord

28 “‘Surely anything that a man permanently dedicates to the Lord[aj] from all that belongs to him, whether from people, animals, or his landed property, must be neither sold nor redeemed; anything permanently dedicated is most holy to the Lord. 29 Any human being who is permanently dedicated[ak] to the Lord[al] must not be ransomed; such a person must be put to death.

Redemption of the Tithe

30 “‘Any tithe[am] 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[an] part of his tithe, however, he must add one-fifth to it.[ao] 32 All the tithe of herds or flocks, everything which passes under the rod, the tenth one will be holy to the Lord.[ap] 33 The owner[aq] must not examine the animals to distinguish between good and bad, and he must not exchange it. If, however, he does exchange it,[ar] both the original animal[as] and its substitute will be holy[at] and must not be redeemed.’”

Final Colophon

34 These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses to tell the Israelites[au] at Mount Sinai.

Footnotes

  1. Leviticus 27:2 tn Cf. the note on Lev 22:21. Some take this as an expression for fulfilling a vow, “to fulfill a vow” (e.g., HALOT 927-28 s.v. פלא piel and NASB; cf. NRSV “in fulfillment of a vow”) or, alternatively, “to make a vow” or “for making a vow” (HALOT 928 s.v. פלא piel [II פלא]). Perhaps it refers to the making a special vow, from the verb פָלָא (palaʾ, “to be wonderful; to be remarkable”), cf. Milgrom, Numbers [JPSTC], 44. B. A. Levine, Leviticus (JPSTC), 151 and 193, suggests that this is a special term for “setting aside a votive offering” (related to פָלָה, palah, “to set aside”). In general, the point of the expression seems to be that this sacrifice is a special gift to God that arose out of special circumstances in the life of the worshiper.
  2. Leviticus 27:2 tn Heb “in your valuation, persons to the Lord,” but “in your valuation” is a frozen form and, therefore, the person (“your”) does not figure into the translation (see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 73). Instead of offering a person to the Lord one could redeem that person with the appropriate amount of money delineated in the following verses (see the note on Lev 5:15 above and the explanation in Hartley, 480-81).
  3. Leviticus 27:3 tn Heb “your conversion value shall be [for] the male.”
  4. Leviticus 27:3 tn Heb “from a son of twenty years and until a son of sixty years.”
  5. Leviticus 27:3 tn See the note on Lev 5:15.
  6. Leviticus 27:6 tn Heb “five shekels silver.”
  7. Leviticus 27:8 tn Heb “if he.”
  8. Leviticus 27:8 tn Heb “and the priest shall cause him to be valued.”
  9. Leviticus 27:8 tn Heb “on the mouth which the hand of the one who vowed reaches.”
  10. Leviticus 27:9 tn Heb “which they may present from it an offering.” The plural active verb is sometimes best rendered in the passive (GKC 460 §144.f, g). Some medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, a ms of the Targum, and the Vulgate all have the singular verb instead (cf. similarly v. 11).
  11. Leviticus 27:9 tn Heb “from it.” The masculine suffix “it” here is used for the feminine in the MT, but one medieval Hebrew ms, some mss of Smr, the LXX, and the Syriac have the feminine. The referent (this kind of animal) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  12. Leviticus 27:10 tn Heb “it and its substitute.” The referent (the original animal offered) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  13. Leviticus 27:12 tn Heb “and the priest shall cause it to be valued.” See the note on v. 8 above.
  14. Leviticus 27:13 tn Heb “And if redeeming [infinitive absolute] he redeems it [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p. The referent of “he” (the person who made the vow) and “it” (the animal) have both been specified in the translation for clarity.
  15. Leviticus 27:13 tn Heb “on,” meaning “on top of, in addition to” (likewise in v. 15).
  16. Leviticus 27:14 tn The expression “it shall stand” may be a technical term for “it shall be legally valid”; cf. NLT “assessment will be final.”
  17. Leviticus 27:15 tn Heb “and it shall be to him.”
  18. Leviticus 27:16 tn Heb “a conversion value shall be to the mouth of its seed.”
  19. Leviticus 27:16 tn Heb “seed of a homer of barley in fifty shekels of silver.”
  20. Leviticus 27:17 tn Heb “from the year of the jubilee.” For the meaning of “jubilee,” see the note on Lev 25:10 above.
  21. Leviticus 27:18 tn Heb “And if.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have adversative force here.
  22. Leviticus 27:18 tn Heb “the silver.”
  23. Leviticus 27:19 tn Heb “And if redeeming [infinitive absolute] he redeems [finite verb] the field, the one who consecrated it.” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.
  24. Leviticus 27:19 tn Heb “the silver of the conversion value.”
  25. Leviticus 27:19 tn Heb “and it shall rise to him.” See HALOT 1087 s.v. קום 7 for the rendering offered here, but see also the note on the end of v. 14 above (cf. J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 476, 478).
  26. Leviticus 27:20 tn Heb “and if he sells.”
  27. Leviticus 27:21 tn Heb “When it goes out” (cf. Lev 25:25-34).
  28. Leviticus 27:21 tn Heb “like the field of the permanent dedication.” The Hebrew word חֵרֶם (kherem) is a much discussed term. In this and the following verses it refers in a general way to the fact that something is permanently devoted to the Lord and therefore cannot be redeemed (cf. v. 20b). See J. A. Naudé, NIDOTTE 2:276-77; N. Lohfink, TDOT 5:180-99, esp. pp. 184, 188, and 198-99; and the numerous explanations in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus (WBC), 483-85.
  29. Leviticus 27:21 tn Heb “to the priest it shall be his property.”
  30. Leviticus 27:22 tn Heb “his field of purchase,” which is to be distinguished from his own ancestral “landed property” (cf. v. 16 above).
  31. Leviticus 27:23 tn Heb “give” (so KJV, ASV, NASB, NLT).
  32. Leviticus 27:25 tn See the note on Lev 5:15.
  33. Leviticus 27:26 tn Heb “to the Lord it is.”
  34. Leviticus 27:27 tn Heb “And if.”
  35. Leviticus 27:27 tn Heb “in” or “by.”
  36. Leviticus 27:28 tn Heb “Surely, any permanently dedicated [thing] which a man shall permanently dedicate to the Lord.” The Hebrew term חֵרֶם (kherem) refers to things that are devoted permanently to the Lord (see the note on v. 21 above).
  37. Leviticus 27:29 tn Heb “permanently dedicated from among men.”
  38. Leviticus 27:29 tn The words “to the Lord” are not in the Hebrew text but have been supplied for clarity.
  39. Leviticus 27:30 tn On the “tithe” system in Israel, see R. E. Averbeck, NIDOTTE 2:1035-55 and esp. pp. 1041-42 on Lev 27:30-33.
  40. Leviticus 27:31 tn Heb “And if redeeming [infinitive absolute] a man redeems [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.
  41. Leviticus 27:31 tn Heb “its one-fifth on it.”
  42. Leviticus 27:32 sn The tithed animal was the tenth one that passed under the shepherd’s rod or staff as they were being counted (see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 485, and B. A. Levine, Leviticus [JPSTC], 200).
  43. Leviticus 27:33 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the owner of the animal) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  44. Leviticus 27:33 tn Heb “And if exchanging [infinitive absolute] he exchanges it [finite verb].” For the infinitive absolute used to highlight contrast rather than emphasis see GKC 343 §113.p.
  45. Leviticus 27:33 tn Heb “it and its substitute.” The referent (the original animal offered) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  46. Leviticus 27:33 tn Heb “it shall be and its substitute shall be holy.”
  47. Leviticus 27:34 tn Most of the commentaries and English versions translate, “which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel.” The preposition אֶל (ʾel), however, does not usually mean “for.” In this book it is commonly used when the Lord commands Moses “to speak [un]to” a person or group of persons (see, e.g., Lev 1:2; 4:2, etc.). The translation “to tell” here reflects this pattern in the book of Leviticus.
