Numbers 18:16-18

Modern English Version

¹⁶ Their redemption price, reckoned from one month of age, is five shekels,^[a] after the shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.

¹⁷ But the firstborn of a herd animal, or the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat, you will not redeem. They are holy. You will splash their blood on the altar and will burn their fat as a fire offering, as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. ¹⁸ Their flesh will be yours, as the wave breast and as the right shoulder are yours.
