Leviticus 27:25-27
1599 Geneva Bible
25 And all the valuation shall be according to the shekel of (A)the Sanctuary: a shekel containeth twenty gerahs.
26 ¶ (B)Notwithstanding the firstborn of the beasts, because it is the Lord’s firstborn, none shall dedicate such, be it bullock, or sheep: For it is the [a]Lord’s.
27 But if it be an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it by thy valuation, and give the fifth part more thereto: and if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold, according to thy estimation.
