Leviticus 27.
27:1 The LORD said to Moses,
27:2 "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'If anyone makes a special vow to dedicate persons to the LORD by giving equivalent values,
27:3 set the value of a male between the ages of twenty and sixty at fifty shekels of silver, according to the sanctuary shekel;
27:4 and if it is a female, set her value at thirty shekels.
27:5 If it is a person between the ages of five and twenty, set the value of a male at twenty shekels and of a female at ten shekels.
27:6 If it is a person between one month and five years, set the value of a male at five shekels of silver and that of a female at three shekels of silver.
27:7 If it is a person sixty years old or more, set the value of a male at fifteen shekels and of a female at ten shekels.
27:8 If anyone making the vow is too poor to pay the specified amount, he is to present the person to the priest, who will set the value for him according to what the man making the vow can afford.
27:9 "'If what he vowed is an animal that is acceptable as an offering to the LORD, such an animal given to the LORD becomes holy.
27:10 He must not exchange it or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one; if he should substitute one animal for another, both it and the substitute become holy.
27:11 If what he vowed is a ceremonially unclean animal--one that is not acceptable as an offering to the LORD--the animal must be presented to the priest,
27:12 who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be.
27:13 If the owner wishes to redeem the animal, he must add a fifth to its value.
27:14 "'If a man dedicates his house as something holy to the LORD, the priest will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, so it will remain.
27:15 If the man who dedicates his house redeems it, he must add a fifth to its value, and the house will again become his.
27:16 "'If a man dedicates to the LORD part of his family land, its value is to be set according to the amount of seed required for it--fifty shekels of silver to a homer of barley seed.
27:17 If he dedicates his field during the Year of Jubilee, the value that has been set remains.
27:18 But if he dedicates his field after the Jubilee, the priest will determine the value according to the number of years that remain until the next Year of Jubilee, and its set value will be reduced.
27:19 If the man who dedicates the field wishes to redeem it, he must add a fifth to its value, and the field will again become his.
27:20 If, however, he does not redeem the field, or if he has sold it to someone else, it can never be redeemed.
27:21 When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will become holy, like a field devoted to the LORD; it will become the property of the priests.
27:22 "'If a man dedicates to the LORD a field he has bought, which is not part of his family land,
27:23 the priest will determine its value up to the Year of Jubilee, and the man must pay its value on that day as something holy to the LORD.
27:24 In the Year of Jubilee the field will revert to the person from whom he bought it, the one whose land it was.
27:25 Every value is to be set according to the sanctuary shekel, twenty gerahs to the shekel.
27:26 "'No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the LORD; whether an ox or a sheep, it is the LORD'S.
27:27 If it is one of the unclean animals, he may buy it back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If he does not redeem it, it is to be sold at its set value.
27:28 "'But nothing that a man owns and devotes to the LORD--whether man or animal or family land--may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the LORD.
27:29 "'No person devoted to destruction may be ransomed; he must be put to death.
27:30 "'A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.
27:31 If a man redeems any of his tithe, he must add a fifth of the value to it.
27:32 The entire tithe of the herd and flock--every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd's rod--will be holy to the LORD.
27:33 He must not pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution. If he does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.'"
Psalms 34.
34:1 I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
34:2 My soul will boast in the LORD; let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
34:3 Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together.
34:4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears.
34:5 Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.
34:6 This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles.
34:7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.
34:8 Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
34:9 Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.
34:10 The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
34:11 Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
34:12 Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,
34:13 keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.
34:14 Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
34:15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cry;
34:16 the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
34:17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.
34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
34:19 A righteous man may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all;
34:20 he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.
34:21 Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
34:22 The LORD redeems his servants; no one will be condemned who takes refuge in him.
Ecclesiastes 10.
10:1 As dead flies give perfume a bad smell, so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor.
10:2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.
10:3 Even as he walks along the road, the fool lacks sense and shows everyone how stupid he is.
10:4 If a ruler's anger rises against you, do not leave your post; calmness can lay great errors to rest.
10:5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun, the sort of error that arises from a ruler:
10:6 Fools are put in many high positions, while the rich occupy the low ones.
10:7 I have seen slaves on horseback, while princes go on foot like slaves.
10:8 Whoever digs a pit may fall into it; whoever breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake.
10:9 Whoever quarries stones may be injured by them; whoever splits logs may be endangered by them.
10:10 If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed but skill will bring success.
10:11 If a snake bites before it is charmed, there is no profit for the charmer.
10:12 Words from a wise man's mouth are gracious, but a fool is consumed by his own lips.
10:13 At the beginning his words are folly; at the end they are wicked madness--
10:14 and the fool multiplies words. No one knows what is coming--who can tell him what will happen after him?
10:15 A fool's work wearies him; he does not know the way to town.
10:16 Woe to you, O land whose king was a servant and whose princes feast in the morning.
10:17 Blessed are you, O land whose king is of noble birth and whose princes eat at a proper time--for strength and not for drunkenness.
10:18 If a man is lazy, the rafters sag; if his hands are idle, the house leaks.
10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything.
10:20 Do not revile the king even in your thoughts, or curse the rich in your bedroom, because a bird of the air may carry your words, and a bird on the wing may report what you say.
Titus 2.
2:1 You must teach what is in accord with sound doctrine.
2:2 Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in love and in endurance.
2:3 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.
2:4 Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children,
2:5 to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.
2:6 Similarly, encourage the young men to be self-controlled.
2:7 In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness
2:8 and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.
2:9 Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them,
2:10 and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted, so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Savior attractive.
2:11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.
2:12 It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age,
2:13 while we wait for the blessed hope--the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
2:14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
2:15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.
