Leviticus 27:7–24

⁸If anyone who made the vow is too poor to pay the standard price, he or she shall bring the person to the priest, and the priest will set a lower price, according to the ability of that person to pay.

⁹If the vow concerns an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the Lord, then every gift made to the Lord is sacred, ¹⁰and anyone who made the vow may not substitute another animal for it. If he does, both animals belong to the Lord. ¹¹But if the vow concerns a ritually unclean animal, which is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord, the man shall take the animal to the priest. ¹²The priest shall fix a price for it, according to its good or bad qualities, and the price will be final. ¹³If the person wishes to buy it back, he must pay the price plus an additional twenty per cent.

¹⁴When someone dedicates his house to the Lord, the priest shall fix the price according to its good or bad points, and the price will be final. ¹⁵If the one who dedicated the house wishes to buy it back, he must pay the price plus an additional twenty per cent.

¹⁶If someone dedicates part of his land to the Lord, the price shall be fixed according to the amount of seed it takes to sow it, at the rate of ten pieces of silver for every twenty kilogrammes of barley. ¹⁷If he dedicates the land immediately after a Year of Restoration, the full price applies. ¹⁸If he dedicates it later, the priest shall estimate the cash value according to the number of years left until the next Year of Restoration, and fix a reduced price. ¹⁹If the one who dedicated the field wishes to buy it back, he or she must pay the price plus an additional twenty per cent. ²⁰If they sell the field to someone else without first buying it back from the Lord, they lose the right to buy it back. ²¹At the next Year of Restoration the field will become the Lord’s permanent property; it shall belong to the priests.

²²If someone dedicates to the Lord a field that he has bought, ²³the priest shall estimate its value according to the number of years until the next Year of Restoration, and the person must pay the price that very day; the money belongs to the Lord. ²⁴At the Year of Restoration the field shall be returned to the original owner or to his descendants.
