Leviticus 27
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.

Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Ang Pagtubos ng mga Bagay na Inihandog sa Panginoon
27 Inutusan ng Panginoon si Moises 2 na sabihin ito sa mga Israelita:
Kung ang isang tao ay inihandog sa Panginoon bilang pagtupad sa isang panata, ang taong iyon ay maaari pang matubos sa panatang iyon, 3-7 kung babayaran niya ng pilak, ang kanyang halaga ay kinakailangang ayon sa bigat ng pilak sa timbangang ginagamit ng mga pari:
Sa edad na isang buwan hanggang apat na taon
lalaki: limang pirasong pilak
babae: tatlong pirasong pilak
Sa edad na lima hanggang 19 na taon
lalaki: 20 pirasong pilak
babae: sampung pirasong pilak
Sa edad na 20 hanggang 59 na taon
lalaki: 50 pirasong pilak
babae: 30 pirasong pilak
Sa edad na 60 taon pataas
lalaki: 15 pirasong pilak
babae: sampung pirasong pilak.
8 Kung dukha ang nagpanata at hindi kayang magbayad ng nasabing halaga, dadalhin niya sa pari ang taong ipinanata niyang ihahandog sa Panginoon, at ang pari ang siyang magbibigay ng halaga ayon sa makakayanan ng tao.
9 Kung ang panatang handog ay hayop na maaaring ihandog sa Panginoon, ang hayop na iyon ay sa Panginoon na. 10 Iyon ay hindi na niya maaaring palitan kahit mas maganda pa ang kanyang ipapalit. Kapag pinalitan niya ito, ang hayop na kanyang ipinanata pati ang ipinalit ay parehong sa Panginoon na. 11 Kung ang kanyang panatang hayop ay itinuturing na marumi at hindi maaaring ihandog sa Panginoon, dadalhin niya iyon sa pari. 12 Titingnan iyon ng pari kung mabuti ba ito o hindi, at bibigyan niya ito ng halaga[a] at hindi na maaaring baguhin pa. 13 Kung babawiin ng may-ari ang hayop. Kinakailangang bayaran niya ang halaga ng hayop at dadagdagan pa niya ng 20 porsiyento ng halaga nito.
14 Kung bahay naman ang panatang handog sa Panginoon, titingnan muna ng pari ang nasabing bahay kung mabuti ba ito o hindi, at saka niya bibigyan ng halaga at hindi na maaaring baguhin pa. 15 Kung babawiin ng may-ari ang kanyang bahay, kinakailangang bayaran niya ang halaga ng bahay at dadagdagan pa niya ng 20 porsiyento ng halaga nito at saka ibabalik sa kanya ang bahay.
16 Kung ang inihandog naman sa Panginoon ay bahagi ng lupaing minana sa kanyang mga magulang, itoʼy bibigyan ng halaga ng pari ayon sa dami ng binhing maaaring ihasik sa lupaing iyon: Sa bawat kalahating sako ng binhing maihahasik, ang halaga ng lupa ay 20 pirasong pilak. 17 Kung ihahandog niya ang kanyang bukid pagkatapos ng Taon ng Pagpapalaya at Pagsasauli, ganoon pa rin ang halaga nito. 18 Pero kung sa bandang huli na niya ihahandog, bibigyan ito ng halaga ng pari ng mas mababa, batay sa dami ng taon na natitira hanggang sa susunod na Taon ng Pagpapalaya at Pagsasauli. 19 Kung babawiin ng may-ari ang kanyang bukid, kinakailangang bayaran niya ang halaga ng bukid at dadagdagan pa niya ng 20 porsiyento ng halaga nito. At saka ibabalik sa kanya ang bukid. 20 Pero kung ipagbili niya ang bukid nang hindi pa niya natutubos, hindi na niya ito mababawi. 21 At pagsapit ng Taon ng Pagpapalaya at Pagsasauli, iyon ay sa Panginoon na, at hindi na niya mababawi pa. Iyon ay magiging pag-aari na ng mga pari.
22 Kung ang inihandog naman ay lupang binili, 23 itoʼy bibigyan ng halaga ng pari ayon sa dami ng natitirang taon bago dumating ang Taon ng Pagpapalaya at Pagsasauli. Dapat itong tubusin ng taong iyon. At ang halagang itinubos ay sa Panginoon na. 24 Sa Taon ng Pagpapalaya at Pagsasauli, ang nasabing lupain ay isasauli sa may-ari na nagbenta ng lupaing iyon.
25 Ang lahat ng halaga ng mga ito na inihandog sa Panginoon ay kinakailangang ayon sa bigat ng pilak sa timbangang ginagamit ng mga pari.
26 Ang panganay na anak ng hayop ay sa Panginoon na, kaya itoʼy hindi na maaaring ihandog sa kanya. Ito ay sa Panginoon, maging baka man ito o tupa. 27 Pero kung ang hayop ay itinuturing na marumi, iyon ay maaaring tubusin ng may-ari. Babayaran niya ang halaga ng hayop at dadagdagan pa niya ng 20 porsiyento ng halaga nito. Pero kung iyon ay hindi tutubusin ng may-ari, ipagbibili iyon ng pari ayon sa itinakdang halaga.
28 Ang anumang bagay na lubusang itinalaga[b] sa Panginoon ay hindi na maaaring ipagbili o tubusin maging itoʼy tao o hayop o lupaing minana dahil iyon ay sa Panginoon na. 29 Ang taong lubusang inihandog sa Panginoon ay hindi na maaaring tubusin. Dapat siyang patayin.
30 Ang ikasampung bahagi ng lahat ng ani ay sa Panginoon. 31 Kung tutubusin ng sinuman ang ikasampung bahagi ng kanyang ani, kinakailangan niyang bayaran ang halaga at dadagdagan pa ng 20 porsiyento ng halaga nito. 32 Kung bibilangin ninyo ang inyong mga baka, tupa, o kambing, lahat ng ikasampung bahagi ay ibibigay ninyo sa Panginoon. 33 Hindi ninyo ito dapat piliin o palitan. Kung papalitan ninyo ito, ang inyong ipinalit na hayop at ang pinalitan nito ay parehong ilalaan sa Panginoon na at hindi na maaaring tubusin.
34 Ito ang mga utos na ibinigay ng Panginoon kay Moises doon sa bundok ng Sinai para sa mga Israelita.

English Standard Version
Laws About Vows
27 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, If anyone (A)makes a special vow to the Lord involving the valuation of persons, 3 then the valuation of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels[a] of silver, according to the (B)shekel of the sanctuary. 4 If the person is a female, the valuation shall be thirty shekels. 5 If the person is from five years old up to twenty years old, the valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels. 6 If the person is from a month old up to five years old, the valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female the valuation shall be three shekels of silver. 7 And if the person is sixty years old or over, then the valuation for a male shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels. 8 And if someone is too poor to pay the valuation, then he shall be made to stand before the priest, and the priest shall value him; the priest shall value him according to what the vower can afford.
9 “If the vow[b] is an animal that may be offered as an offering to the Lord, all of it that he gives to the Lord is holy. 10 (C)He shall not exchange it or make a substitute for it, good for bad, or bad for good; and if he does in fact substitute one animal for another, then both it and the substitute shall be holy. 11 And if it is any unclean animal that may not be offered as an offering to the Lord, then he shall stand the animal before the priest, 12 and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall be. 13 (D)But if he wishes to redeem it, he shall add a (E)fifth to the valuation.
14 “When a man dedicates his house as a holy gift to the Lord, the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. 15 (F)And if the donor wishes to redeem his house, he shall add a (G)fifth to the valuation price, and it shall be his.
16 “If a man dedicates to the Lord part of the land that is his possession, then the valuation shall be in proportion to its seed. A homer[c] of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If he dedicates his field from the year of jubilee, the valuation shall stand, 18 but if he dedicates his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall (H)calculate the price according to the years that remain until the year of jubilee, and a deduction shall be made from the valuation. 19 (I)And if he who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it, then he shall add a (J)fifth to its valuation price, and it shall remain his. 20 But if he does not wish to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore. 21 But the field, (K)when it is released in the jubilee, shall be a holy gift to the Lord, like a field that has been (L)devoted. The priest shall be in (M)possession of it. 22 If he dedicates to the Lord a field that he has bought, (N)which is not a part of his possession, 23 (O)then the priest shall calculate the amount of the valuation for it up to the year of jubilee, and the man shall give the valuation on that day as a holy gift to the Lord. 24 (P)In the year of jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to whom the land belongs as a possession. 25 Every valuation shall be according to (Q)the shekel of the sanctuary: (R)twenty gerahs[d] shall make a shekel.
26 “But a (S)firstborn of animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no man may dedicate; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord's. 27 And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall buy it back at the valuation, (T)and add a fifth to it; or, if it is not redeemed, it shall be sold at the valuation.
28 “But (U)no devoted thing that a man devotes to the Lord, of anything that he has, whether man or beast, or of his inherited field, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to the Lord. 29 (V)No one devoted, who is to be devoted for destruction[e] from mankind, shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death.
30 (W)“Every tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the Lord's; it is holy to the Lord. 31 If a man wishes to redeem some of his tithe, he shall add a fifth to it. 32 And every tithe of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that (X)pass under the herdsman's staff, shall be holy to the Lord. 33 One shall not differentiate between good or bad, (Y)neither shall he make a substitute for it; and if he does substitute for it, then both it and the substitute shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.”
34 (Z)These are the commandments that the Lord commanded Moses for the people of Israel (AA)on Mount Sinai.
