Mais s'il s'agit d'un animal impur, on le rachètera selon ton estimation, en y ajoutant un cinquième; s'il n'est pas racheté, il sera vendu d'après ton estimation.
S'il s'agit d'un animal impur, on le rachètera au prix de ton estimation, en y ajoutant un cinquième; s'il n'est pas racheté, il sera vendu d'après ton estimation.
Mais s'il est de bêtes souillées, il le rachètera selon ton estimation, et il ajoutera à ton estimation un cinquième; et s'il n'est point racheté, il sera vendu selon ton estimation.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
and shall add: This was probably intended to prevent rash vows and covetous redemptions. The priest alone was to value the thing; and to whatever his valuation was, a fifth part must be added by him who wished to redeem it. Leviticus 27:11-13
Reciprocal: Leviticus 5:16 - the fifth Numbers 18:15 - the firstborn Nehemiah 10:36 - the firstborn
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And if [it be] of an unclean beast,.... This is to be understood, not of the firstling of unclean creatures in common, which were to be redeemed with a lamb, and not with money, according to the estimation of the priest, and a fifth part added to that; but of such as were sanctified, or vowed, for the reparation of the sanctuary, as Jarchi notes:
then he shall redeem [it] according to thine estimation; the price the priest should set upon it, how much it was worth in his judgment:
and shall add a fifth [part] of it thereto; to the price, set upon a fifth part of that over and above the sum; this the sanctifier, or he that made the vow, was obliged to pay, if he thought fit to redeem it:
or if it be not redeemed; by him, he does not choose to give the price, and the fifth part:
then it shall be sold according to thy estimation; to another man, without the fifth part, that chooses to purchase it, and then the purchase money was laid out for sacred uses.
