¹³But if hee will at all redeeme it, then he shall adde a fift part thereof vnto thy estimation.

¹⁴¶ And when a man shall sanctifie his house to be holy vnto the LORD, then the Priest shal estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the Priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.

¹⁸But if hee sanctifie his field after the Iubile, then the Priest shall reckon vnto him the money, according to the yeeres that remaine, euen vnto the yeere of the Iubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.

¹⁹And if he that sanctified the field, will in any wise redeeme it, then he shal adde the fift part of the money of thy estimation vnto it, and it shall be assured to him.

²⁰And if hee will not redeeme the field, or if he haue sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.

²²And if a man sanctifie vnto the LORD a field which he hath bought, which is not of the fieldes of his possession:

²³Then the Priest shall reckon vnto him the worth of thy estimation, euen vnto the yeere of the Iubile, and hee shall giue thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing vnto the LORD.

²⁴In the yeere of the Iubile, the field shall returne vnto him of whom it was bought, euen to him to whom the possession of the land did belong.

²⁵And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the Sanctuarie: ^*twentie Gerahs shall bee the shekel.

²⁶¶ Onely the firstling of the beasts which should be the LORDs ^†firstling, no man shall sanctifie it, whether it bee oxe, or sheepe: It is the LORDs.

²⁷And if it be of an vncleane beast, then hee shall redeeme it according to thine estimation, and shall adde a fifth part of it thereto: Or if it be not redeemed, then it shalbe sold according to thy estimation.

^28*Notwithstanding, no deuoted thing that a man shall deuote vnto the LORD, of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: euery deuoted thing is most holy vnto the LORD.

²⁹None deuoted, which shalbe deuoted of men, shall be redeemed: but shall surely be put to death.

¹⁶Woe vnto you, yee blind guides, which say, Whosoeuer shall sweare by the Temple, it is nothing: but whosoeuer shal sweare by the gold of the Temple, he is a debter.

¹⁸And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

¹⁸And whosoeuer shall sweare by the Altar, it is nothing: but whosoeuer sweareth by the gift that is vpon it, he is ^‖guiltie.
