Leviticus 27:28-30

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁸ Any thing that is devoted to the Lord, whether it be man, or beast, or field, shall not be sold, neither may it be redeemed. Whatsoever is once consecrated shall be holy of holies to the Lord.

²⁹ And any consecration that is offered by man, shall not be redeemed, but dying shall die.

³⁰ All tithes of the land, whether of corn, or of the fruits of trees, are the Lord's, and are sanctified to him.
