Levitico 27
La Nuova Diodati

27 L'Eterno parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

2 «Parla ai figli d'Israele e di' loro: Quando uno fa un importante voto per consacrare una persona all'Eterno, e intende dare il valore equivalente,

3 se il tuo estimo riguarda un maschio dai vent'anni in su, fino ai sessant'anni, allora il tuo estimo sarà di cinquanta sicli d'argento, secondo i siclo del santuario.

4 Se si tratta di una donna, il tuo estimo sarà di trenta sicli.

5 Dai cinque anni in su fino ai vent'anni, il tuo estimo sarà di venti sicli per un maschio e di dieci sicli per una femmina.

6 Da un mese in su, fino a cinque anni, il tuo estimo sarà di cinque sicli d'argento per un maschio e di tre sicli d'argento per una femmina.

7 Dai sessant'anni in su, il tuo estimo sarà di quindici sicli per un maschio e di dieci sicli per una femmina.

8 Ma se egli è troppo povero per pagare la somma richiesta dal tuo estimo, allora sarà presentato davanti al sacerdote e il sacerdote ne farà l'estimo. Il sacerdote farà un estimo, in proporzione dei mezzi di colui che ha fatto il voto.

9 Se si tratta di animali che possono essere presentati in offerta all'Eterno, ogni animale offerto all'Eterno sarà cosa santa.

10 Egli non potrà né sostituirlo né scambiarlo, né uno buono con uno cattivo, né uno cattivo con uno buono; e se anche dovesse scambiare un animale con un altro, entrambi saranno cosa sacra.

11 Se però si tratta di un animale impuro di cui non si può fare offerta all'Eterno, allora egli presenterà l'animale davanti al sacerdote;

12 e il sacerdote ne farà l'estimo, sia l'animale buono o cattivo; qualunque estimo il sacerdote fisserà quello sarà.

13 Ma se uno lo vuole riscattare, dovrà aggiungere un quinto all'estimo.

14 Se uno consacra la sua casa per essere cosa santa all'Eterno, il sacerdote ne farà l'estimo, sia essa buona o cattiva; qualunque estimo il sacerdote fisserà quello sarà.

15 E se colui che ha consacrato la sua casa la vuole riscattare, dovrà aggiungere un quinto all'estimo e sarà sua.

16 Se uno consacra all'Eterno un campo di sua proprietà, ne farai l'estimo in base alla semente richiesta per essa: cinquanta sicli d'argento per un homer di seme d'orzo.

17 Se consacra il suo campo dall'anno del giubileo, il prezzo resterà quello fissato dal tuo estimo;

18 ma se consacra il suo campo dopo il giubileo, il sacerdote ne valuterà il prezzo in ragione degli anni che rimangono fino al giubileo, dal tuo estimo.

19 E se colui che ha consacrato il campo lo vuole riscattare, dovrà aggiungere un quinto al tuo estimo, e resterà suo.

20 Ma se non vuole riscattare il campo o se ha venduto il campo ad un altro, non lo si potrà piú riscattare;

21 e il campo, quando viene svincolato al giubileo, sarà santo all'Eterno come un campo destinato a DIO, e diventerà proprietà del sacerdote.

22 Se uno consacra all'Eterno un campo da lui comprato e che non fa parte del suo patrimonio,

23 il sacerdote stabilirà per lui il valore del tuo estimo fino all'anno del giubileo, e quel tale verserà il giorno stesso il prezzo da te fissato, come cosa sacra all'Eterno.

24 Nell'anno del giubileo il campo tornerà a colui da cui fu comprato, e del cui patrimonio faceva parte.

25 Tutti i tuoi estimi si faranno in sicli del santuario; il siclo è di venti ghere.

26 Ma nessuno potrà consacrare i primogeniti del bestiame, perché come primogeniti appartengono già all'Eterno; sia esso un bue o un agnello, appartiene all'Eterno.

27 E se si tratta di un animale impuro, lo riscatterà in base al prezzo fissato dal tuo estimo, aggiungendovi un quinto; se non è riscattato, sarà venduto al prezzo fissato dal tuo estimo.

28 Nondimeno nulla di ciò che è destinato a Dio e che uno ha destinato all'Eterno, fra tutte le cose che gli appartengono, si tratti di una persona, di un animale o di un pezzo di terra del suo patrimonio, potrà essere venduto o riscattato; ogni cosa destinata a Dio è cosa santissima all'Eterno.

29 Nessuna persona votata allo sterminio potrà essere riscattata; dovrà essere messa a morte.

30 Ogni decima della terra, sia dei prodotti del suolo che dei frutti degli alberi, appartiene all'Eterno; è cosa consacrata all'Eterno.

31 Se uno vuole riscattare una parte della sua decima, vi aggiungerà il quinto.

32 E per la decima della mandria e del gregge, il decimo capo di tutto ciò che passa sotto la verga sarà consacrato all'Eterno.

33 Non farà distinzione fra buono e cattivo, né farà scambi; e se scambia uno con un altro, ambedue saranno cosa sacra; non si potranno riscattare».

34 Questi sono i comandamenti che l'Eterno diede a Mosè per i figli d'Israele sul monte Sinai.

New International Version

Redeeming What Is the Lord’s

27 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If anyone makes a special vow(A) to dedicate a person to the Lord by giving the equivalent value, 3 set the value of a male between the ages of twenty and sixty at fifty shekels[a] of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel[b];(B) 4 for a female, set her value at thirty shekels[c]; 5 for a person between the ages of five and twenty, set the value of a male at twenty shekels[d](C) and of a female at ten shekels[e]; 6 for a person between one month and five years, set the value of a male at five shekels[f](D) of silver and that of a female at three shekels[g] of silver; 7 for a person sixty years old or more, set the value of a male at fifteen shekels[h] and of a female at ten shekels. 8 If anyone making the vow is too poor to pay(E) the specified amount, the person being dedicated is to be presented to the priest, who will set the value(F) according to what the one making the vow can afford.

9 “‘If what they vowed is an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the Lord,(G) such an animal given to the Lord becomes holy.(H) 10 They must not exchange it or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one;(I) if they should substitute one animal for another, both it and the substitute become holy. 11 If what they vowed is a ceremonially unclean animal(J)—one that is not acceptable as an offering to the Lord—the animal must be presented to the priest, 12 who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be. 13 If the owner wishes to redeem(K) the animal, a fifth must be added to its value.(L)

14 “‘If anyone dedicates their house as something holy to the Lord, the priest will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, so it will remain. 15 If the one who dedicates their house wishes to redeem it,(M) they must add a fifth to its value, and the house will again become theirs.

16 “‘If anyone dedicates to the Lord part of their family land, its value is to be set according to the amount of seed required for it—fifty shekels of silver to a homer[i] of barley seed. 17 If they dedicate a field during the Year of Jubilee, the value that has been set remains. 18 But if they dedicate a field after the Jubilee,(N) the priest will determine the value according to the number of years that remain(O) until the next Year of Jubilee, and its set value will be reduced. 19 If the one who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it,(P) they must add a fifth to its value, and the field will again become theirs. 20 If, however, they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can never be redeemed. 21 When the field is released in the Jubilee,(Q) it will become holy,(R) like a field devoted to the Lord;(S) it will become priestly property.

22 “‘If anyone dedicates to the Lord a field they have bought, which is not part of their family land, 23 the priest will determine its value up to the Year of Jubilee,(T) and the owner must pay its value on that day as something holy to the Lord. 24 In the Year of Jubilee the field will revert to the person from whom it was bought,(U) the one whose land it was. 25 Every value is to be set according to the sanctuary shekel,(V) twenty gerahs(W) to the shekel.

26 “‘No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the Lord;(X) whether an ox[j] or a sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 If it is one of the unclean animals,(Y) 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[k](Z) to the Lord—whether a human being or an animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy(AA) to the Lord.

29 “‘No person devoted to destruction[l] may be ransomed; they are to be put to death.(AB)

30 “‘A tithe(AC) of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy(AD) to the Lord. 31 Whoever would redeem(AE) any of their tithe must add a fifth of the value(AF) to it. 32 Every tithe of the herd and flock—every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod(AG)—will be holy to the Lord. 33 No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution.(AH) If anyone does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.(AI)’”

34 These are the commands the Lord gave Moses at Mount Sinai(AJ) for the Israelites.(AK)

Redeeming Persons and Property Dedicated to God

27 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: (A)‘When a man [a]consecrates by a vow certain persons to the Lord, according to your [b]valuation, 3 if your valuation is of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old, then your valuation shall be fifty shekels of silver, (B)according to the shekel of the sanctuary. 4 If it is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels; 5 and if from five years old up to twenty years old, then your valuation for a male shall be twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels; 6 and if from a month old up to five years old, then your valuation for a male shall be five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver; 7 and if from sixty years old and above, if it is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels.

8 ‘But if he is too poor to pay your valuation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall set a value for (C)him; according to the ability of him who vowed, the priest shall value him.

9 ‘If it is an animal that men may bring as an offering to the Lord, all that anyone gives to the Lord shall be holy. 10 He shall not substitute it or exchange it, good for bad or bad for good; and if he at all exchanges animal for animal, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be (D)holy. 11 If it is an unclean animal which they do not offer as a sacrifice to the Lord, then he shall present the animal before the priest; 12 and the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be. 13 (E)But if he wants at all to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth to your valuation.

14 ‘And when a man [c]dedicates his house to be holy to the Lord, then the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. 15 If he who dedicated it wants to [d]redeem his house, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall be his.

16 ‘If a man [e]dedicates to the Lord part of a field of his possession, then your valuation shall be according to the seed for it. A homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If he dedicates his field from the Year of Jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand. 18 But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, then the priest shall (F)reckon to him the money due according to the years that remain till the Year of Jubilee, and it shall be deducted from your valuation. 19 And if he who dedicates the field ever wishes to redeem it, then he must add one-fifth of the money of your valuation to it, and it shall belong to him. 20 But if he does not want to redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed anymore; 21 but the field, (G)when it is released in the Jubilee, shall be holy to the Lord, as a (H)devoted field; it shall be (I)the possession of the priest.

22 ‘And if a man dedicates to the Lord a field which he has bought, which is not the field of (J)his possession, 23 then the priest shall reckon to him the worth of your valuation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your valuation on that day as a holy offering to the Lord. 24 (K)In the Year of Jubilee the field shall return to him from whom it was bought, to the one who owned the land as a possession. 25 And all your valuations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: (L)twenty gerahs to the shekel.

26 ‘But the (M)firstborn of the animals, which should be the Lord’s firstborn, no man shall dedicate; whether it is an ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 And if it is an unclean animal, then he shall redeem it according to your valuation, and (N)shall add one-fifth to it; or if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your valuation.

28 (O)‘Nevertheless no [f]devoted offering that a man may devote to the Lord of all that he has, both man and beast, or the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed; every devoted offering is most holy to the Lord. 29 (P)No person under the ban, who may become doomed to destruction among men, shall be redeemed, but shall surely be put to death. 30 And (Q)all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord. 31 (R)If a man wants at all to redeem any of his tithes, he shall add one-fifth to it. 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever (S)passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord. 33 He shall not inquire whether it is good or bad, (T)nor shall he exchange it; and if he exchanges it at all, then both it and the one exchanged for it shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.’ ”

34 (U)These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel on Mount (V)Sinai.
