Leviticus 27:7-13
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 27
7If the person is from sixty years old and upward, if a male, then your assessment shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female, ten shekels. 8But if he is poorer than your assessment, then he shall be presented before the priest, and the priest shall assess him; according to the means of the one who vowed, the priest shall assess him.
9‘Now if it is an animal of the kind that one can present as an offering to the Lord, any such animal that one gives to the Lord shall be holy.
10He shall not replace it nor exchange it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; yet if he does exchange animal for animal, then both it and its substitute shall become holy.
11If, however, it is any unclean animal of the kind which one does not present as an offering to the Lord, then he shall place the animal before the priest.
12And the priest shall assess it as either good or bad; as you, the priest, assess it, so shall it be.
13But if he should ever want to redeem it, then he shall add a fifth of it to your assessment.
King James Version
Chapter 27
7And 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. 8But 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. 9And 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. 10He 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. 11And 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: 12And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be. 13But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy estimation.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 27
7If the person is sixty years or more, your assessment is fifteen shekels for a male and ten shekels for a female. 8But if one is too poor to pay the assessment, he is to present the person before the priest and the priest will set a value for him. The priest will set a value for him according to what the one making the vow can afford.
9"If the vow involves one of the animals that may be brought as an offering to the Lord, any of these he gives to the Lord will be holy.
10He may not replace it or make a substitution for it, either good for bad, or bad for good. But if he does substitute one animal for another, both that animal and its substitute will be holy.
11"If the vow involves any of the unclean animals that may not be brought as an offering to the Lord, the animal must be presented before the priest.
12The priest will set its value, whether high or low; the price will be set as the priest makes the assessment for you.
13If the one who brought it decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the assessed value.
New Living Translation
Chapter 27
7A man older than sixty is valued at fifteen shekels of silver; a woman of that age is valued at ten shekels of silver. 8If you desire to make such a vow but cannot afford to pay the required amount, take the person to the priest. He will determine the amount for you to pay based on what you can afford.
9If your vow involves giving an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the Lord, any gift to the Lord will be considered holy.
10You may not exchange or substitute it for another animal — neither a good animal for a bad one nor a bad animal for a good one. But if you do exchange one animal for another, then both the original animal and its substitute will be considered holy.
11If your vow involves an unclean animal — one that is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord — then you must bring the animal to the priest.
12He will assess its value, and his assessment will be final, whether high or low.
13If you want to buy back the animal, you must pay the value set by the priest, plus 20 percent.
English Standard Version
Chapter 27
7And 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. 8And 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 is an animal that may be offered as an offering to the Lord, all of it that he gives to the Lord is holy.
10He 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.
11And 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,
12and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall be.
13But if he wishes to redeem it, he shall add a fifth to the valuation.
New International Version
Chapter 27
7for a person sixty years old or more, set the value of a male at fifteen shekels and of a female at ten shekels. 8If anyone making the vow is too poor to pay the specified amount, the person being dedicated is to be presented to the priest, who will set the value 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, such an animal given to the Lord becomes holy.
10They must not exchange it or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one; if they should substitute one animal for another, both it and the substitute become holy.
11If what they vowed is a ceremonially unclean animal—one that is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord—the animal must be presented to the priest,
12who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be.
13If the owner wishes to redeem the animal, a fifth must be added to its value.
New King James Version
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.
10He 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 holy.
11If 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;
12and the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be.
13But if he wants at all to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth to your valuation.
