Leviticus 27:14-25
14‘Now if a man consecrates his house as holy to the Lord, then the priest shall value it 1as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand. 15Yet if the one who consecrates it should wish to redeem his house, then he shall add one-fifth of your valuation price to it, so that it may be his.
16‘Again, if a man consecrates to the Lord part of the fields of his own property, then your valuation shall be 2proportionate to the seed needed for it: a homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver. 17If he consecrates his field as of the year of jubilee, according to your valuation it shall stand. 18If he consecrates his field after the jubilee, however, then the priest shall calculate the price for 3him 4proportionate to the years that are left until the year of jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your valuation. 19If the one who consecrates it should ever wish to redeem the field, then he shall add one-fifth of your valuation price to it, so that it may pass to him. 20Yet if he will not redeem the field, 5but has sold the field to another man, it may no longer be redeemed; 21and when it 6reverts in the jubilee, the field shall be holy to the Lord, like a field 7set apart; 8it shall be for the priest as his 9property. 22Or if he consecrates to the Lord a field which he has bought, which is not a part of the field of his own 10property, 23then the priest shall calculate for 11him the amount of your valuation up to the year of jubilee; and he shall on that day give your valuation as holy to the Lord. 24In the year of jubilee the field shall return to the one from whom he bought it, to whom the possession of the land belongs. 25Every valuation of yours, moreover, shall be after 12the shekel of the sanctuary. The shekel shall be twenty gerahs.
