28 ‘Nevertheless, (A)[a]anything which someone sets apart to the Lord for [b]destruction out of all that he has, of man or animal or of the field of his own property, shall not be sold nor redeemed. Anything set apart for destruction is most holy to the Lord. 29 No [c]one who may have been [d]set apart among mankind shall be ransomed; he must be put to death.

30 ‘Now (B)all the tithe of the land, of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lords; it is holy to the Lord. 31 If, therefore, someone should ever want to redeem part of his tithe, he shall add to it a fifth of it. 32 For every tenth part of herd or flock, whatever (C)passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord. 33 (D)He is not to be concerned whether it is good or bad, nor shall he exchange it; yet if he does exchange it, then both it and its substitute shall become holy. It shall not be redeemed.’”

34 (E)These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the sons of Israel on Mount Sinai.
