Leviticus 27
New International Version
Redeeming What Is the Lord’s
27 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If anyone makes a special vow(A) to dedicate a person to the Lord by giving the equivalent value, 3 set the value of a male between the ages of twenty and sixty at fifty shekels[a] of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel[b];(B) 4 for a female, set her value at thirty shekels[c]; 5 for a person between the ages of five and twenty, set the value of a male at twenty shekels[d](C) and of a female at ten shekels[e]; 6 for a person between one month and five years, set the value of a male at five shekels[f](D) of silver and that of a female at three shekels[g] of silver; 7 for a person sixty years old or more, set the value of a male at fifteen shekels[h] and of a female at ten shekels. 8 If anyone making the vow is too poor to pay(E) the specified amount, the person being dedicated is to be presented to the priest, who will set the value(F) according to what the one making the vow can afford.
9 “‘If what they vowed is an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the Lord,(G) such an animal given to the Lord becomes holy.(H) 10 They must not exchange it or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one;(I) if they should substitute one animal for another, both it and the substitute become holy. 11 If what they vowed is a ceremonially unclean animal(J)—one that is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord—the animal must be presented to the priest, 12 who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be. 13 If the owner wishes to redeem(K) the animal, a fifth must be added to its value.(L)
14 “‘If anyone dedicates their house as something holy to the Lord, the priest will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, so it will remain. 15 If the one who dedicates their house wishes to redeem it,(M) they must add a fifth to its value, and the house will again become theirs.
16 “‘If anyone dedicates to the Lord part of their family land, its value is to be set according to the amount of seed required for it—fifty shekels of silver to a homer[i] of barley seed. 17 If they dedicate a field during the Year of Jubilee, the value that has been set remains. 18 But if they dedicate a field after the Jubilee,(N) the priest will determine the value according to the number of years that remain(O) until the next Year of Jubilee, and its set value will be reduced. 19 If the one who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it,(P) they must add a fifth to its value, and the field will again become theirs. 20 If, however, they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can never be redeemed. 21 When the field is released in the Jubilee,(Q) it will become holy,(R) like a field devoted to the Lord;(S) it will become priestly property.
22 “‘If anyone dedicates to the Lord a field they have bought, which is not part of their family land, 23 the priest will determine its value up to the Year of Jubilee,(T) and the owner must pay its value on that day as something holy to the Lord. 24 In the Year of Jubilee the field will revert to the person from whom it was bought,(U) the one whose land it was. 25 Every value is to be set according to the sanctuary shekel,(V) twenty gerahs(W) to the shekel.
26 “‘No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the Lord;(X) whether an ox[j] or a sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 If it is one of the unclean animals,(Y) it may be bought back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If it is not redeemed, it is to be sold at its set value.
28 “‘But nothing that a person owns and devotes[k](Z) to the Lord—whether a human being or an animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy(AA) to the Lord.
29 “‘No person devoted to destruction[l] may be ransomed; they are to be put to death.(AB)
30 “‘A tithe(AC) of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy(AD) to the Lord. 31 Whoever would redeem(AE) any of their tithe must add a fifth of the value(AF) to it. 32 Every tithe of the herd and flock—every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod(AG)—will be holy to the Lord. 33 No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution.(AH) If anyone does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.(AI)’”
34 These are the commands the Lord gave Moses at Mount Sinai(AJ) for the Israelites.(AK)

Ang Biblia, 2001
Mga Batas tungkol sa mga Handog sa Panginoon
27 At nagsalita ang Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,
2 “Magsalita ka sa mga anak ni Israel, at sabihin mo sa kanila: Kapag ang isang tao ay gumawa ng isang maliwanag na panata sa Panginoon tungkol sa katumbas ng isang tao,
3 ang katumbas para sa isang lalaki ay: mula sa dalawampung taong gulang hanggang sa may animnapu ay limampung siklong[a] pilak, na ihahalaga ayon sa siklo ng santuwaryo.
4 Kapag babae, ang katumbas ay tatlumpung siklo.
5 Kung may gulang na mula sa limang taon hanggang sa may dalawampung taon, ang itutumbas mo ay dalawampung siklo ang sa lalaki at ang sa babae ay sampung siklo.
6 Kung may gulang na mula sa isang buwan hanggang sa limang taon, tutumbasan mo ng limang siklong pilak para sa lalaki at sa babae ay tatlong siklong pilak.
7 Kung may gulang na animnapung taon pataas ay labinlimang siklo ang iyong itutumbas para sa lalaki at sa babae ay sampung siklo.
8 Ngunit kung siya ay mas dukha kaysa inyong itinakdang katumbas, siya ay patatayuin sa harapan ng pari, at tutumbasan siya ng pari; siya ay tutumbasan ng pari ayon sa kakayahan niya na may panata.
9 “At kung tungkol sa hayop na ihahandog na alay sa Panginoon, lahat ng ibibigay sa Panginoon ay banal.
10 Huwag niyang babaguhin o papalitan ang mabuti ng masama o ang masama ng mabuti; at kung sa anumang paraan ay palitan ng iba ang isang hayop, kapwa magiging banal ang kapalit at ang pinalitan.
11 At kung iyon ay alinmang hayop na marumi na hindi maihahandog na alay sa Panginoon, dadalhin niya ang hayop sa harapan ng pari;
12 at ito ay hahalagahan ng pari kung ito ay mabuti o masama; ayon sa paghahalaga ng pari ay magiging gayon.
13 Ngunit kung tunay na kanyang tutubusin, magdaragdag siya ng ikalimang bahagi sa ibinigay mong halaga.
14 “Kapag ang isang tao ay magtatalaga ng kanyang bahay upang maging banal sa Panginoon, ay hahalagahan ito ng pari, kung mabuti o masama; ayon sa ihahalaga ng pari ay magiging gayon.
15 At kung tutubusin ng nagtalaga ang kanyang bahay, siya ay magdaragdag ng ikalimang bahagi ng salapi na inihalaga roon, at ito ay magiging kanya.
16 “Kapag ang isang tao ay magtatalaga sa Panginoon ng bahagi ng bukid na kanyang minana, ang iyong paghahalaga ay ayon sa binhi nito; isang omer[b] na binhi ng sebada sa halagang limampung siklong pilak.[c]
17 Kung itatalaga niya ang kanyang bukid mula sa taon ng pagdiriwang, ito ay magiging ayon sa iyong inihalaga.
18 Subalit kung italaga niya ang kanyang bukid pagkatapos ng pagdiriwang, bibilangin sa kanya ng pari ang salapi ayon sa mga taong natitira hanggang sa taon ng pagdiriwang at ito ay ibabawas sa iyong inihalaga.
19 Kung ang bukid ay tutubusin ng nagtalaga nito, siya ay magdaragdag ng ikalimang bahagi ng salaping inihalaga roon, at ito ay mapapasa-kanya.
20 At kung hindi niya tubusin ang bukid, o kung ipinagbili niya ang bukid sa ibang tao, ito ay hindi na matutubos.
21 Subalit ang bukid, kapag naalis sa pagdiriwang, ay magiging banal sa Panginoon, bilang bukid na itinalaga. Ito ay magiging pag-aari ng pari.
22 At kung ang sinuman ay magtalaga sa Panginoon ng bukid na kanyang binili, na hindi sa bukid na kanyang minana;
23 ay bibilangin sa kanya ng pari ang halaga ng iyong inihalaga hanggang sa taon ng pagdiriwang, at babayaran niya ang iyong inihalaga ng araw ding iyon, isang banal na bagay sa Panginoon.
24 Sa taon ng pagdiriwang, ibabalik ang bukid sa kanyang binilhan, sa kanya na nagmamay-ari ng lupa.
25 Lahat ng iyong paghahalaga ay magiging ayon sa siklo ng santuwaryo: bawat isang siklo ay katumbas ng labinlimang gramo.[d]
26 “Gayunman, walang sinumang magtatalaga ng panganay sa mga hayop. Ito ay panganay para sa Panginoon, maging baka o tupa ay para sa Panginoon.
27 At kung ito ay hayop na marumi, ito ay kanyang tutubusin ayon sa iyong inihalaga at idaragdag ang ikalimang bahagi niyon; o kung hindi tutubusin ay ipagbibili ayon sa iyong inihalaga.
28 “Ngunit(A) anumang bagay na itinalaga sa Panginoon mula sa lahat ng kanyang pag-aari, maging sa tao o sa hayop, o sa bukid na kanyang pag-aari, ay hindi maipagbibili o matutubos; bawat bagay na itinalaga ay kabanal-banalan sa Panginoon.
29 Walang taong itinalaga sa pagkawasak ang matutubos; siya ay tiyak na papatayin.
Batas tungkol sa mga Buwis
30 “Lahat(B) ng ikasampung bahagi ng lupain, maging sa binhi ng lupain, o sa bunga ng punungkahoy ay sa Panginoon; ito ay banal sa Panginoon.
31 Kung ang isang tao ay tutubos ng alinman sa kanyang ikasampung bahagi, idagdag niya roon ang ikalimang bahagi niyon.
32 At lahat ng ikasampung bahagi sa bakahan o sa kawan, lahat ng ikasampung bahagi na dumaan sa ilalim ng tungkod ng pastol ay banal sa Panginoon.
33 Huwag niyang sisiyasatin kung mabuti o masama, ni huwag niya itong papalitan; at kung palitan niya ito, kapwa magiging banal ito at ang ipinalit at hindi ito maaaring tubusin.”
34 Ito ang mga utos na iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises sa bundok ng Sinai para sa mga anak ni Israel.

King James Version
27 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons shall be for the Lord by thy estimation.
3 And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
4 And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.
5 And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
6 And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver.
7 And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
8 But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
9 And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the Lord, all that any man giveth of such unto the Lord shall be holy.
10 He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.
11 And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto the Lord, then he shall present the beast before the priest:
12 And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be.
13 But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy estimation.
14 And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the Lord, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
15 And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be his.
16 And if a man shall sanctify unto the Lord some part of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17 If he sanctify his field from the year of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall stand.
18 But if he sanctify his field after the jubile, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.
19 And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him.
20 And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.
21 But the field, when it goeth out in the jubile, shall be holy unto the Lord, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.
22 And if a man sanctify unto the Lord a field which he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession;
23 Then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of thy estimation, even unto the year of the jubile: and he shall give thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing unto the Lord.
24 In the year of the jubile the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong.
25 And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
26 Only the firstling of the beasts, which should be the Lord's firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is the Lord's.
27 And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to thine estimation, and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation.
28 Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the Lord.
29 None devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.
30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's: it is holy unto the Lord.
31 And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.
32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord.
33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
34 These are the commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.

New King James Version
Redeeming Persons and Property Dedicated to God
27 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: (A)‘When a man [a]consecrates by a vow certain persons to the Lord, according to your [b]valuation, 3 if your valuation is of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old, then your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, (B)according to the shekel of the sanctuary. 4 If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels; 5 and if from five years old up to twenty years old, then your valuation for a male shall be twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels; 6 and if from a month old up to five years old, then your valuation for a male shall be five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver; 7 and if from sixty years old and above, if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.
8 ‘But if he is too poor to pay your valuation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall set a value for (C)him; according to the ability of him who vowed, the priest shall value him.
9 ‘If it is an animal that men may bring as an offering to the Lord, all that anyone gives to the Lord shall be holy. 10 He shall not substitute it or exchange it, good for bad or bad for good; and if he at all exchanges animal for animal, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be (D)holy. 11 If it is an unclean animal which they do not offer as a sacrifice to the Lord, then he shall present the animal before the priest; 12 and the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be. 13 (E)But if he wants at all to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth to your valuation.
14 ‘And when a man [c]dedicates his house to be holy to the Lord, then the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. 15 If he who dedicated it wants to [d]redeem his house, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.
16 ‘If a man [e]dedicates to the Lord part of a field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. A homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand. 18 But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall (F)reckon to him the money due according to the years that remain till the Year of Jubilee, and it shall be deducted from your valuation. 19 And if he who dedicates the field ever wishes to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall belong to him. 20 But if he does not want to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore; 21 but the field, (G)when it is released in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the Lord, as a (H)devoted field; it shall be (I)the possession of the priest.
22 ‘And if a man dedicates to the Lord a field which he has bought, which is not the field of (J)his possession, 23 then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your valuation on that day as a holy offering to the Lord. 24 (K)In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to the one who owned the land as a possession. 25 And all your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: (L)twenty gerahs to the shekel.
26 ‘But the (M)firstborn of the animals, which should be the Lord’s firstborn, no man shall dedicate; whether it is an ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall redeem it according to your valuation, and (N)shall add one-fifth to it; or if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.
28 (O)‘Nevertheless no [f]devoted offering that a man may devote to the Lord of all that he has, both man and beast, or the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted offering is most holy to the Lord. 29 (P)No person under the ban, who may become doomed to destruction among men, shall be redeemed, but shall surely be put to death. 30 And (Q)all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord. 31 (R)If a man wants at all to redeem any of his tithes, he shall add one-fifth to it. 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever (S)passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord. 33 He shall not inquire whether it is good or bad, (T)nor shall he exchange it; and if he exchanges it at all, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.’ ”
34 (U)These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount (V)Sinai.
