Leviticus 27:26-29

26‘1However, a firstborn among animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no one may consecrate; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27But if it is among the unclean animals, then he shall 2redeem it according to your assessment and add to it a fifth of it; and if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your assessment.

28‘Nevertheless, 3 4anything which someone sets apart to the Lord for 5destruction 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. 29No 6one who may have been 7set apart among mankind shall be ransomed; he must be put to death.
