Leviticus 27:27-29
Lexham English Bible
27 And if it is among the unclean animals, then[a] he shall ransom it according to your proper value, and he shall add a fifth of its value onto it; and if it is not redeemed, then[b] it shall be sold according to your proper value. 28 However, anything devoted[c] that a man has devoted to Yahweh from all that he has,[d] from human or[e] animal, or[f] from the field of his property, may not be sold, and it may not be redeemed; anything devoted is a most holy thing[g] for Yahweh. 29 Anyone devoted who is devoted from human beings[h] cannot be ransomed—he shall surely be put to death.
