Leviticus 27:26-28
Tree of Life Version
26 “But the firstborn among animals, which is made a firstborn to Adonai, may be dedicated by anyone. Whether an ox or sheep, it belongs to Adonai. 27 If it is an unclean animal, then he is to buy it back according to your valuation, and add a fifth of the value to it. But if it is not redeemed, then it is to be sold according to your valuation.
28 “Nevertheless, no devoted thing which a man sets apart from all that he has for Adonai, whether man or animal, or from the field of his possession, may be sold or redeemed. Every devoted thing is most holy to Adonai.

Leviticus 27:26-28
New International Version
26 “‘No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the Lord;(A) whether an ox[a] or a sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 If it is one of the unclean animals,(B) 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.
28 “‘But nothing that a person owns and devotes[b](C) to the Lord—whether a human being or an animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy(D) to the Lord.
