27 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

² `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When a man maketh a wonderful vow, by thy valuation the persons [are] Jehovah's.

³ When thy valuation hath been of the male from a son of twenty years even unto a son of sixty years, then hath been thy valuation fifty shekels of silver by the shekel of the sanctuary.

⁴ And if it [is] a female -- then hath thy valuation been thirty shekels;

⁵ and if from a son of five years even unto a son of twenty years -- then hath thy valuation been of the male twenty shekels, and for the female, ten shekels;

⁶ and if from a son of a month even unto a son of five years -- then hath thy valuation been of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy valuation [is] three shekels of silver;

⁷ and if from a son of sixty years and above -- if a male, then hath thy valuation been fifteen shekels, and for a female, ten shekels.

⁸ `And if he is poorer than thy valuation, then he hath presented himself before the priest, and the priest hath valued him; according to that which the hand of him who is vowing doth reach doth the priest value him.

⁹ `And if [it is] a beast of which they bring near an offering to Jehovah, all that [one] giveth of it to Jehovah is holy;

¹⁰ he doth not change it nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he really change beast for beast, -- then it hath been -- it and its exchange is holy.

¹¹ `And if [it is] any unclean beast of which they do not bring near an offering to Jehovah, then he hath presented the beast before the priest,

¹² and the priest hath valued it; whether good or bad, according to thy valuation, O priest, so it is;

¹³ and if he really redeem it, then he hath added its fifth to thy valuation.

¹⁴ `And when a man sanctifieth his house, a holy thing to Jehovah, then hath the priest valued it, whether good or bad; as the priest doth value it so it standeth;

¹⁵ and if he who is sanctifying doth redeem his house, then he hath added a fifth of the money of thy valuation to it, and it hath become his.

¹⁶ `And if of the field of his possession a man sanctify to Jehovah, then hath thy valuation been according to its seed; a homer of barley-seed at fifty shekels of silver;

¹⁷ if from the year of the jubilee he sanctify his field, according to thy valuation it standeth;

¹⁸ and if after the jubilee he sanctify his field, then hath the priest reckoned to him the money according to the years which are left, unto the year of the jubilee, and it hath been abated from thy valuation.

¹⁹ `And if he really redeem the field -- he who is sanctifying it -- then he hath added a fifth of the money of thy valuation to it, and it hath been established to him;

²⁰ and if he do not redeem the field, or if he hath sold the field to another man, it is not redeemed any more;

²¹ and the field hath been, in its going out in the jubilee, holy to Jehovah as a field which is devoted; to the priest is its possession.

²² `And if the field of his purchase (which [is] not of the fields of his possession) [one] sanctify to Jehovah --

²³ then hath the priest reckoned to him the amount of thy valuation unto the year of jubilee, and he hath given thy valuation in that day -- a holy thing to Jehovah;

²⁴ in the year of the jubilee the field returneth to him from whom he bought it, to him whose [is] the possession of the land.

²⁵ And all thy valuation is by the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs is the shekel.

²⁶ `Only, a firstling which is Jehovah's firstling among beasts -- no man doth sanctify it, whether ox or sheep; it [is] Jehovah's.

²⁷ And if among the unclean beasts, then he hath ransomed [it] at thy valuation, and he hath added its fifth to it; and if it is not redeemed, then it hath been sold at thy valuation.

²⁸ `Only, no devoted thing which a man devoteth to Jehovah, of all that he hath, of man, and beast, and of the field of his possession, is sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to Jehovah.

²⁹ `No devoted thing, which is devoted of man, is ransomed, it is surely put to death.

³⁰ And all tithe of the land, of the seed of the land, of the fruit of the tree, is Jehovah's -- holy to Jehovah.

³¹ `And if a man really redeem [any] of his tithe, its fifth he addeth to it.

³² `And all the tithe of the herd and of the flock -- all that passeth by under the rod -- the tenth is holy to Jehovah;

³³ he enquireth not between good and bad, nor doth he change it; and if he really change it -- then it hath been -- it and its exchange is holy; it is not redeemed.'

³⁴ These [are] the commands which Jehovah hath commanded Moses for the sons of Israel, in mount Sinai.

8 In those days the multitude being very great, and not having what they may eat, Jesus having called near his disciples, saith to them,

² `I have compassion upon the multitude, because now three days they do continue with me, and they have not what they may eat;

³ and if I shall let them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way, for certain of them are come from far.'

⁴ And his disciples answered him, `Whence shall any one be able these here to feed with bread in a wilderness?'

⁵ And he was questioning them, `How many loaves have ye?' and they said, `Seven.'

⁶ And he commanded the multitude to sit down upon the ground, and having taken the seven loaves, having given thanks, he brake, and was giving to his disciples that they may set before [them]; and they did set before the multitude.

⁷ And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed, he said to set them also before [them];

⁸ and they did eat and were filled, and they took up that which was over of broken pieces -- seven baskets;

⁹ and those eating were about four thousand. And he let them away,

¹⁰ and immediately having entered into the boat with his disciples, he came to the parts of Dalmanutha,

¹¹ and the Pharisees came forth, and began to dispute with him, seeking from him a sign from the heaven, tempting him;

¹² and having sighed deeply in his spirit, he saith, `Why doth this generation seek after a sign? Verily I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation.'

¹³ And having left them, having entered again into the boat, he went away to the other side;

¹⁴ and they forgot to take loaves, and except one loaf they had nothing with them in the boat,

¹⁵ and he was charging them, saying, `Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod,'

¹⁶ and they were reasoning with one another, saying -- `Because we have no loaves.'

¹⁷ And Jesus having known, saith to them, `Why do ye reason, because ye have no loaves? do ye not yet perceive, nor understand, yet have ye your heart hardened?

¹⁸ Having eyes, do ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? and do ye not remember?

¹⁹ When the five loaves I did brake to the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?' they say to him, `Twelve.'

²⁰ `And when the seven to the four thousand, how many hand-baskets full of broken pieces took ye up?' and they said, `Seven.'

²¹ And he said to them, `How do ye not understand?'

²² And he cometh to Bethsaida, and they bring to him one blind, and call upon him that he may touch him,

²³ and having taken the hand of the blind man, he led him forth without the village, and having spit on his eyes, having put [his] hands on him, he was questioning him if he doth behold anything:

²⁴ and he, having looked up, said, `I behold men, as I see trees, walking.'

²⁵ Afterwards again he put [his] hands on his eyes, and made him look up, and he was restored, and discerned all things clearly,

²⁶ and he sent him away to his house, saying, `Neither to the village mayest thou go, nor tell [it] to any in the village.'

²⁷ And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, to the villages of Cesarea Philippi, and in the way he was questioning his disciples, saying to them, `Who do men say me to be?'

²⁸ And they answered, `John the Baptist, and others Elijah, but others one of the prophets.'

²⁹ And he saith to them, `And ye -- who do ye say me to be?' and Peter answering saith to him, `Thou art the Christ.'

³⁰ And he strictly charged them that they may tell no one about it,

³¹ and began to teach them, that it behoveth the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and after three days to rise again;

³² and openly he was speaking the word. And Peter having taken him aside, began to rebuke him,

³³ and he, having turned, and having looked on his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, `Get behind me, Adversary, because thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.'

³⁴ And having called near the multitude, with his disciples, he said to them, `Whoever doth will to come after me -- let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me;

³⁵ for whoever may will to save his life shall lose it; and whoever may lose his life for my sake and for the good news' sake, he shall save it;

³⁶ for what shall it profit a man, if he may gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

³⁷ Or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?

³⁸ for whoever may be ashamed of me, and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also shall be ashamed of him, when he may come in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.'
