 Ch. XXVII. LEVITICUS. 28 But with respect to every Anathema which a man may de- vote to the Lord from all that he hath, whether from man or beast, or from field of his possession, it shall not be sold nor redeemed. Every anathema shall be most sacredly devoted to 29 the Lord. And every thing which hath been devoted as an anathema from among men, shall not be redeemable, but by 30 death. The Avhole tenth of the land, both of the produce of the land, and of the fruit of the trees, is for the Lord. It is dedi- 31 catedtothe Lord. And if any man chuse to redeem his tenth by purchase, he shall add to the valuation a fifth, and it shall be 32 his. NoAv the whole tenth of herds and flocks — even every one which in numbering shall come under the rod, that tenth 33 shall be dedicated to the Lord. Thou shalt not change a good for a bad, nor a bad for a good ; and if thou shalt actually make an exchange, that given in exchange shall also be consecrated, and shall not be redeemed. 34 These are the commands which the Lord gave in charge to Moses for the children of Israel at mount Sina.

Thou and Aaron shall review them, and with you there shall be of 5 the chiefs, one from each tribe. They shall be the chiefs of the patriarchal houses ; and these are the names of the men 6 who shall attend you.
