Leviticus 27:27-29

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

²⁷ If it is an unclean animal, it shall be ransomed at its assessment, with one-fifth added; if it is not redeemed, it shall be sold at its assessment.

²⁸ Nothing that a person owns that has been devoted to destruction for the Lord, be it human or animal, or inherited land-holding, may be sold or redeemed; every devoted thing is most holy to the Lord. ²⁹ No human beings who have been devoted to destruction can be ransomed; they shall be put to death.
