¹⁴“ ‘If a person gives a house as holy to the Lord, the priest must decide its value, according to whether the house is good or bad; as the priest decides, that is the price for the house. ¹⁵But if the person who gives the house wants to buy it back, an additional one-fifth must be added to the price. Then the house will belong to that person again.

Value of Land

¹⁶“ ‘If a person gives some family property to the Lord, the value of the fields will depend on how much seed is needed to plant them. It will cost about one and one-fourth pounds of silver for each six bushels of barley seed needed. ¹⁷If the person gives a field at the year of Jubilee, its value will stay at what the priest has decided. ¹⁸But if the person gives the field after the Jubilee, the priest must decide the exact price by counting the number of years to the next year of Jubilee. Then he will subtract that number from its value. ¹⁹If the person who gave the field wants to buy it back, one-fifth must be added to that price, and the field will belong to the first owner again.
