Leviticus 27:25-27
EasyEnglish Bible
25 The priest must decide the price of the land. He must use the correct measures.
26 The first baby that an animal has is holy. It belongs to the Lord. A person cannot give it as a special gift to the Lord. 27 The animal might be an unclean animal (an animal that they must not eat). The person can pay the price of the animal and one fifth more to get it back. If the person does not buy it back, the priest will sell it.

26 “‘No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the Lord;(C) whether an ox[a] or a sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 If it is one of the unclean animals,(D) it may be bought back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If it is not redeemed, it is to be sold at its set value.
