Context of Leviticus 27:9
7If the person is from 60 years old and upward, if it is a male, then your valuation is to be 15 shekels and for a female ten shekels. 8But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he is to be set before the kohen and the kohen will set a value for him, in keeping with what the one who made the vow can afford. “Now if it is an animal that may be brought as an offering to Adonai, anything that one gives to Adonai will be holy. 10He is not to replace it or exchange it, either good for bad, or bad for good. But if he does exchange one animal for another, then both it and the one for which it is exchanged will become holy. 11If it is any sort of unclean animal that may not be brought as an offering to Adonai, then he is to set that animal before the kohen.
