VULGATANEW JERUSALEM
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens :1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said:
2 Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos : Homo qui votum fecerit, et spoponderit Deo animam suam, sub æstimatione dabit pretium.2 'Speak to the Israelites and say: "If anyone vows the value of a person to Yahweh and wishes todischarge the vow:
3 Si fuerit masculus a vigesimo anno usque ad sexagesimum annum, dabit quinquaginta siclos argenti ad mensuram sanctuarii :3 "a man between twenty and sixty years of age wil be valued at fifty silver shekels -- the sanctuaryshekel;
4 si mulier, triginta.4 a woman wil be valued at thirty shekels;
5 A quinto autem anno usque ad vigesimum, masculus dabit viginti siclos : femina, decem.5 "between five and twenty years, a boy wil be valued at twenty shekels, a girl at ten shekels;
6 Ab uno mense usque ad annum quintum, pro masculo dabuntur quinque sicli : pro femina, tres.6 "between one month and five years, a boy wil be valued at five silver shekels, a girl at three silvershekels;
7 Sexagenarius et ultra masculus dabit quindecim siclos : femina, decem.7 "at sixty years and over, a man will be valued at fifteen shekels and a woman at ten shekels.
8 Si pauper fuerit, et æstimationem reddere non valebit, stabit coram sacerdote : et quantum ille æstimaverit, et viderit eum posse reddere, tantum dabit.
8 "If the person who made the vow cannot meet this valuation, he wil present the person concerned tothe priest, and the priest wil set a value proportionate to the resources of the person who made the vow.
9 Animal autem, quod immolari potest Domino, si quis voverit, sanctum erit,9 "In the case of an animal suitable for offering to Yahweh, any such animal given to Yahweh wil beholy.
10 et mutari non poterit, id est, nec melius malo, nec pejus bono : quod si mutaverit, et ipsum quod mutatum est, et illud pro quo mutatum est, consecratum erit Domino.10 It cannot be exchanged or replaced, a good one instead of a bad one, or a bad one instead of a goodone. If one animal is substituted for another, both of them wil become holy.
11 Animal immundum, quod immolari Domino non potest, si quis voverit, adducetur ante sacerdotem :11 In the case of an unclean animal unsuitable for offering to Yahweh, whatever it may be, it will bepresented to the priest
12 qui judicans utrum bonum an malum sit, statuet pretium.12 and he wil set a value on it, in relation to its worth. His valuation will be decisive;
13 Quod si dare voluerit is qui offert, addet supra æstimationem quintam partem.
13 but if the person wishes to redeem it, he will add one-fifth to the valuation.
14 Homo si voverit domum suam, et sanctificaverit Domino, considerabit eam sacerdos utrum bona an mala sit, et juxta pretium, quod ab eo fuerit constitutum, venundabitur :14 "If a man consecrates his house to Yahweh, the priest wil set a value on it, in relation to its worth. Hisvaluation wil be decisive.
15 sin autem ille qui voverat, voluerit redimere eam, dabit quintam partem æstimationis supra, et habebit domum.15 If the man who has vowed his house wishes to redeem it, he wil add one-fifth to the valuation, and itwil revert to him.
16 Quod si agrum possessionis suæ voverit, et consecraverit Domino, juxta mensuram sementis æstimabitur pretium : si triginta modiis hordei seritur terra, quinquaginta siclis venundetur argenti.16 "If a man consecrates one of the fields of his ancestral property to Yahweh, its value wil becalculated in terms of its yield, at the rate of fifty silver shekels to one homer of barley.
17 Si statim ab anno incipientis jubilæi voverit agrum, quanto valere potest, tanto æstimabitur.17 "If he consecrates the field during the jubilee year, he wil abide by this valuation.
18 Sin autem post aliquantum temporis, supputabit sacerdos pecuniam juxta annorum, qui reliqui sunt, numerum usque ad jubilæum, et detrahetur ex pretio.18 But if he consecrates it after the jubilee, the priest wil calculate the price in terms of the number ofyears stil to run until the next jubilee and the valuation wil be reduced accordingly.
19 Quod si voluerit redimere agrum ille qui voverat, addet quintam partem æstimatæ pecuniæ, et possidebit eum.19 "If he wishes to redeem the field, he wil add one-fifth to the valuation, and the field wil revert to him.
20 Sin autem noluerit redimere, sed alteri cuilibet fuerit venundatus, ultra eum qui voverat redimere non poterit.20 If he does not redeem it but sel s it to someone else, the right of redemption ceases;
21 Quia cum jubilæi venerit dies, sanctificatus erit Domino, et possessio consecrata ad jus pertinet sacerdotum.21 when the purchaser has to vacate it at the jubilee year, it becomes consecrated to Yahweh, like afield vowed unconditional y; ownership of it passes to the priest.
22 Si ager emptus est, et non de possessione majorum sanctificatus fuerit Domino,22 "If he consecrates to Yahweh a field which he has bought, but which is not part of his ancestralproperty,
23 supputabit sacerdos juxta annorum numerum usque ad jubilæum, pretium : et dabit ille qui voverat eum, Domino.23 the priest wil calculate the valuation in terms of the number of years stil to run before the jubileeyear; and the man wil pay this sum the same day since it is consecrated to Yahweh.
24 In jubilæo autem revertetur ad priorem dominum, qui vendiderat eum, et habuerat in sorte possessionis suæ.24 In the jubilee year the field wil revert to the vendor, the man to whose ancestral property the landbelongs.
25 Omnis æstimatio siclo sanctuarii ponderabitur. Siclus viginti obolos habet.
25 All your valuations will be made in sanctuary shekels, at the rate of twenty gerah to the shekel.
26 Primogenita, quæ ad Dominum pertinent, nemo sanctificare poterit et vovere : sive bos, sive ovis fuerit, Domini sunt.26 "The first-born of livestock is born to Yahweh; no one may consecrate it, whether it be cattle or sheep, for it belongs to Yahweh anyway.
27 Quod si immundum est animal, redimet qui obtulit, juxta æstimationem tuam, et addet quintam partem pretii : si redimere noluerit, vendetur alteri quantocumque a te fuerit æstimatum.27 But if it is an unclean animal, it may be redeemed at the valuation price with one-fifth added; if theanimal is not redeemed, it wil be sold at the valuation price.
28 Omne quod Domino consecratur, sive homo fuerit, sive animal, sive ager, non vendetur, nec redimi poterit. Quidquid semel fuerit consecratum, Sanctum sanctorum erit Domino :28 "Nothing, however, that someone vows unconditional y to Yahweh may be redeemed, nothing hepossesses, be it a human being or animal or field of his ancestral property. What is vowed unconditional y isespecial y holy and belongs to Yahweh.
29 et omnis consecratio, quæ offertur ab homine, non redimetur, sed morte morietur.
29 A human being vowed unconditional y cannot be redeemed but wil be put to death.
30 Omnes decimæ terræ, sive de frugibus, sive de pomis arborum, Domini sunt, et illi sanctificantur.30 "Al tithes on land, levied on the produce of the soil or on the fruit of trees, belong to Yahweh; they areconsecrated to Yahweh.
31 Si quis autem voluerit redimere decimas suas, addet quintam partem earum.31 If anyone wishes to redeem part of his tithe, he will add one-fifth to its value.
32 Omnium decimarum bovis et ovis et capræ, quæ sub pastoris virga transeunt, quidquid decimum venerit, sanctificabitur Domino.32 "In al tithes on herds or flocks, the tenth animal of al that pass under the herdsman's staff wil beconsecrated to Yahweh;
33 Non eligetur nec bonum nec malum, nec altero commutabitur, si quis mutaverit : et quod mutatum est, et pro quo mutatum est, sanctificabitur Domino, et non redimetur.
33 there wil be no examining whether it is good or bad, and no substitution. If substitution takes place,the animal and its substitute wil both become holy without possibility of redemption." '
34 Hæc sunt præcepta, quæ mandavit Dominus Moysi ad filios Israël in monte Sinai.34 Such were the orders which Yahweh gave Moses on Mount Sinai for the Israelites.
