Leviticus 27
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
2 Loquere filiis Israel, et dices ad eos: Homo qui votum fecerit, et spoponderit Deo animam suam, sub æstimatione dabit pretium.
Speak unto the sons of Israel and thou shall say unto them—When any man would consecrate and pay a vow by thine estimate of lives unto Yahweh,
3 Si fuerit masculus a vigesimo anno usque ad sexagesimum annum, dabit quinquaginta siclos argenti ad mensuram Sanctuarii:
then shall, thine estimate be for the male from twenty years of age even to sixty years of age, yea thine estimate shall be—fifty shekels of silver by the shekel of the sanctuary;
4 si mulier, triginta.
but if it be, a female, then shall thine estimate be thirty shekels.
5 A quinto autem anno usque ad vigesimum, masculus dabit viginti siclos: femina decem.
And, if it be from five years of age even unto twenty years of age, then shall thine estimate be for the male, twenty shekels, —and, for the female, ten shekels.
6 Ab uno mense usque ad annum quintum, pro masculo dabuntur quinque sicli: pro femina, tres.
And, if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then shall thine estimate be—for the male, five shekels of silver, —and, for the female, thine estimate [shall be] three shekels of silver.
7 Sexagenarius et ultra masculus dabit quindecim siclos: femina decem.
And if it be from sixty years of age and upwards, if a male, then shall thine estimate be fifteen shekels, —and, for the female, ten shekels.
8 Si pauper fuerit, et æstimationem reddere non valebit, stabit coram sacerdote: et quantum ille æstimaverit, et viderit eum posse reddere, tantum dabit.
But if he be, too poor, for thine estimate, then shall he present himself before the priest, and the priest shall estimate him, —according to that which the hand of him who would vow can attain to, shall the priest estimate him.
9 Animal autem, quod immolari potest Domino, si quis voverit, sanctum erit,
And if it be a beast whereof men may bring near an oblation unto Yahweh, all that whereof aught is given to Yahweh, shall be holy.
10 et mutari non poterit, id est, nec melius malo, nec peius bono. Quod si mutaverit: et ipsum quod mutatum est, et illud pro quo mutatum est, consecratum erit Domino.
He shall not alter it, nor change it—good for bad or bad for good, —but if he, do, change beast for beast, then shall, both it and what was given in exchange for it be holy.
11 Animal immundum, quod immolari Domino non potest, si quis voverit, adducetur ante sacerdotem,
And, if it be any unclean beast whereof men may not bring near an oblation to Yahweh, then shall he present the beast before the priest:
12 qui iudicans utrum bonum an malum sit, statuet pretium.
and the priest shall estimate it, whether it is good or bad, —according to thine estimate, O priest, so, shall it be.
13 Quod si dare voluerit is, qui offert, addet supra æstimationem quintam partem.
But if he should please to redeem, it, then shall he add the fifth part thereof unto thine estimate.
14 Homo si voverit domum suam, et sanctificaverit Domino, considerabit eam sacerdos utrum bona an mala sit, et iuxta pretium, quod ab eo fuerit constitutum, venundabitur:
And, when, any man, would hallow his house to be holy unto Yahweh, then shall the priest estimate it, whether it is good or bad, —as the priest shall estimate it, so, shall it stand.
15 sin autem ille qui voverat, voluerit redimere eam, dabit quintam partem æstimationis supra, et habebit domum.
But, if he that halloweth it, would redeem his house, then shall he add the fifth part of the silver of thine estimate thereunto and it shall be his.
16 Quod si agrum possessionis suæ voverit, et consecraverit Domino: iuxta mensuram sementis æstimabitur pretium. Si triginta modiis hordei seritur terra, quinquaginta siclis venundetur argenti.
And if of the field of his possession any man would hallow unto Yahweh, then shall thine estimate be according to the seed thereof, —the seed of a homer of barley, at fifty shekels of silver.
17 Si statim ab anno incipientis Iubilei voverit agrum, quanto valere potest, tanto æstimabitur.
If, from the year of jubilee, he would hallow his field, according to thine estimate, shall it stand.
18 Sin autem post aliquantum temporis: supputabit sacerdos pecuniam iuxta annorum, qui reliqui sunt, numerum usque ad Iubileum, et detrahetur ex pretio.
But if after the jubilee he would hallow his field, then shall the priest reckon to him the silver, according to the years that remain, until the year of the jubilee, —and it shall be abated from thine estimate.
19 Quod si voluerit redimere agrum ille, qui voverat, addet quintam partem æstimatæ pecuniæ, et possidebit eum.
But, if he that hath hallowed it should be pleased to redeem, the field, then shall he add the fifth part of the silver of thine estimate thereunto and it shall be assured to him.
20 Sin autem noluerit redimere, sed alteri cuilibet fuerit venundatus, ultra eum qui voverat redimere non poterit:
But if he will not redeem the field, but have sold the field to another man, it shall be redeemable no longer;
21 quia cum Iubilei venerit dies, sanctificatus erit Domino, et possessio consecrata ad ius pertinet sacerdotum.
so shall the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, be holy unto Yahweh as a devoted, field, —to the priest, shall belong the possession thereof.
22 Si ager emptus est, et non de possessione maiorum sanctificatus fuerit Domino,
If, however, a field that he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession, he would hallow unto Yahweh,
23 supputabit sacerdos iuxta annorum numerum usque ad Iubileum, pretium: et dabit ille qui voverat eum, Domino.
then shall the priest reckon to him the amount of thine estimate until the year of the jubilee, —and he shall give thine estimate, in that day, as holy unto Yahweh.
24 In Iubileo autem revertetur ad priorem dominum, qui vendiderat eum, et habuerat in sorte possessionis suæ.
In the year of the jubilee, shall the field return unto him from whom he bought it to him whose it was as a possession in the land.
25 Omnis æstimatio siclo Sanctuarii ponderabitur. Siclus viginti obolos habet.
And, every estimate of thine, shall be by the holy shekel, —twenty gerahs, make the shekel.
26 Primogenita, quæ ad Dominum pertinent, nemo sanctificare poterit et vovere: sive bos, sive ovis fuerit, Domini sunt.
Only the firstling which is born a firstling to Yahweh, among beasts, no man shall hallow it, —whether ox or sheep, unto Yahweh, it belongeth.
27 Quod si immundum est animal, redimet qui obtulit, iuxta æstimationem tuam, et addet quintam partem pretii: si redimere noluerit, vendetur alteri quantocumque a te fuerit æstimatum.
But, if it be among the beasts that are unclean, then shall he ransom it by thine estimate, and add the fifth part of it thereunto, —but, if it is not redeemed, then shall it be sold by thine estimate.
28 Omne, quod Domino consecratur, sive homo fuerit, sive animal, sive ager, non vendetur, nec redimi poterit. Quidquid semel fuerit consecratum, Sanctum sanctorum erit Domino.
Only no devoted thing which any man shall devote unto Yahweh, of all that belongeth to him, —of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be either sold or redeemed, —as to every devoted thing, most holy, it is unto Yahweh.
29 Et omnis consecratio, quæ offertur ab homine, non redimetur, sed morte morietur.
As touching any one devoted, who may be devoted from among men he shall not be ransomed, —he must be, surely put to death.
30 Omnes decimæ terræ, sive de frugibus, sive de pomis arborum, Domini sunt, et illi sanctificantur.
And, as for all the tithe of the land whether of the seed of the land, [or] of the fruit of the trees, unto Yahweh, it belongeth, —as something holy unto Yahweh.
31 Si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas, addet quintam partem earum.
But, if any man should be pleased, to redeem, aught of his tithes, the fifth part thereof, shall he add thereunto.
32 Omnium decimarum bovis et ovis et capræ, quæ sub pastoris virga transeunt, quidquid decimum venerit, sanctificabitur Domino.
And, as for all the tithe of herd and flock, all that passeth under the rod, the tenth, shall be holy unto Yahweh.
33 Non eligetur nec bonum nec malum, nec altero commutabitur. Si quis mutaverit: et quod mutatum est, et pro quo mutatum est, sanctificabitur Domino, et non redimetur.
He shall not examine whether it be good or bad neither shall he change it, —or, if he do in anywise change, it, then shall both, it and what is given in exchange for it, be holy, it shall not be redeemed.
34 Hæc sunt præcepta, quæ mandavit Dominus Moysi ad filios Israel in monte Sinai.
These are the commandments which Yahweh commanded Moses for the sons of Israel, —in Mount Sinai.
