Rules concerning Valuations

1 Again, the LORD° spoke° to Moses°, saying°, 2 “Speak° to the sons° of Israel° and say° to them, ‘aWhen° a man° makes° a difficult° vow°, he [shall be valued] according to your valuation° of persons° belonging to the LORD°. 3 If your valuation° is of the male° from twenty° years° even to sixty° years° old°, then your valuation° shall be fifty° shekels° of silver°, after athe shekel° of the sanctuary°. 4 Or if° it is a female°, then your valuation° shall be thirty° shekels°. 5 If° it be from five° years° even to twenty° years° old° then your valuation° for the male° shall be twenty° shekels° and for the female° ten° shekels°. 6 But if° [they are] from a month° even up to five° years° old°, then your valuation° shall be afive° shekels° of silver° for the male°, and for the female° your valuation° shall be three° shekels° of silver°. 7 If° [they are] from sixty° years° old° and upward°, if° it is a male°, then your valuation° shall be fifteen°° shekels°, and for the female° ten° shekels°. 8 But if° he is poorer° than° your valuation°, then he shall be placed° before° the priest° and the priest° shall value° him; aaccording°° to Ithe means°° of the one who vowed°, the priest° shall value° him.
