Leviticus 27:28

Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the LORD of all that he hath, [both] of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing [is] most holy unto the LORD.

Notwithstanding no devoted thing {H2764}, that a man {H376} shall devote {H2763} unto the LORD {H3068} of all that he hath, both of man {H120} and beast {H929}, and of the field {H7704} of his possession {H272}, shall be sold {H4376} or redeemed {H1350}: every devoted thing {H2764} is most {H6944} holy {H6944} unto the LORD {H3068}.

However, nothing consecrated unconditionally which a person may consecrate to ADONAI out of all he owns - person, animal or field he possesses -is to be sold or redeemed; because everything consecrated unconditionally is especially holy to ADONAI.

Nothing that a man sets apart to the LORD from all he owns—whether a man, an animal, or his inherited land—can be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the LORD.

Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto Jehovah of all that he hath, whether of man or beast, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto Jehovah.
