"Pero si está entre los animales inmundos, entonces lo redimirá conforme a tu valuación, y le añadirá una quinta parte al valor fijado; pero si no es redimido, será vendido conforme a tu valuación.
Mas si fuere de los animales inmundos, lo redimirán conforme a tu estimación, y añadirán sobre ella la quinta parte; y si no lo redimieren, se venderá conforme a tu estimación.
Mas si fuere de los animales inmundos, lo redimirán conforme a tu estimación, y añadirán sobre ella su quinto; y si no lo redimieren, se venderá conforme a tu estimación.
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.
