Nombres 18:17

Mais tu ne feras point racheter le premier-né du boeuf, ni le premier-né de la brebis, ni le premier-né de la chèvre: ce sont des choses saintes. Tu répandras leur sang sur l'autel, et tu brûleras leur graisse: ce sera un sacrifice consumé par le feu, d'une agréable odeur à l'Eternel.

La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Mais tu ne rachèteras point le premier-né de la vache, ni le premier-né de la brebis, ni le premier-né de la chèvre; ce sont des choses sacrées. Tu répandras leur sang sur l'autel, et tu feras fumer leur graisse en sacrifice fait par le feu, d'agréable odeur à l'Éternel.
Darby's French Translation
Seulement tu ne rachèteras pas le premier-né de la vache, ou le premier-né de la brebis, ou le premier-né de la chèvre; ils sont saints. Tu feras aspersion de leur sang sur l'autel, et tu feras fumer leur graisse en sacrifice par feu, en odeur agréable à l'Éternel.
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Mais on ne rachètera point le premier-né de la vache, ni le premier-né de la brebis, ni le premier-né de la chèvre; car ce sont des choses saintes. Tu répandras leur sang sur l'autel, et tu feras fumer leur graisse; c'est un sacrifice fait par feu en bonne odeur à l'Eternel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem,.... That is, shalt not take the redemption price for them, but the creatures themselves; which they, the priests, were to take for their own use:

they [are] holy; separated to the Lord, and therefore not to be used in common by men, but were sacred to the Lord, or became the property of his priests; see Deuteronomy 15:19; how they were to be made use of follows:

thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar; for they were to be sacrificed, and their blood used as in other sacrifices:

and shalt burn their fat [for] an offering made by fire; for a sweet savour unto the Lord; as the fat of other sacrifices was, and particularly of the peace offerings, which were wholly eaten otherwise, Leviticus 7:31.
