Numbers 18:15-17

Legacy Standard Bible

^15 [a](A)Every first issue of the womb of all flesh, whether man or animal, which they bring near to Yahweh, shall be yours; nevertheless the firstborn of man you shall surely redeem, and the firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem. ¹⁶ Now as to their redemption price, from a month old you shall redeem them, by your valuation, five ^[b]shekels in silver, according to the ^[c]shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs. ¹⁷ But ^(B)the firstborn of an ox or the firstborn of a sheep or the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy. ^(C)You shall splash their blood on the altar and shall offer up their fat in smoke as an offering by fire, for a soothing aroma to Yahweh.
