"^(F1)(C1)Every firstborn of the womb of all flesh, whether human or animal, which they offer to the LORD, shall be yours; however you must redeem the human firstborn, and the firstborn of unclean animals you shall redeem.

"As to ^(F1)their redemption price, from a month old you shall redeem them, by your assessment, five ^(F2)shekels in silver by the ^(F2)shekel of the sanctuary, which is twenty gerahs.

"But ^(C1)the firstborn of an ox, the firstborn of a sheep, or the firstborn of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy. ^(C2)You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar and offer up their fat in smoke as an offering by fire, for a soothing aroma to the LORD.

"However, their ^(F1)meat shall be yours; it shall be yours like the ^(C1)breast of a wave offering and like the right thigh.
