If what they 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, who will judge its quality as good or bad. Whatever value the priest then sets, that is what it will be.

And if it is any unclean animal that may not be offered as an offering to the LORD, then he shall stand the animal before the priest, and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall be.

If your vow involves an unclean animal—one that is not acceptable as an offering to the LORD—then you must bring the animal to the priest. He will assess its value, and his assessment will be final, whether high or low.

“If the vow involves any of the unclean animals that may not be brought as an offering to the LORD, the animal must be presented before the priest. The priest will set its value, whether high or low; the price will be set as the priest makes the assessment for you.

And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto the LORD, then he shall present the beast before the priest: and the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be.

If it is an unclean animal which they do not offer as a sacrifice to the LORD, then he shall present the animal before the priest; and the priest shall set a value for it, whether it is good or bad; as you, the priest, value it, so it shall be.

“If he vowed an animal that is acceptable as an offering to GOD, the animal is given to GOD and becomes the property of the Sanctuary. He must not exchange or substitute a good one for a bad one, or a bad one for a good one; if he should dishonestly substitute one animal for another, both the original and the substitute become property of the Sanctuary. If what he vowed is a ritually unclean animal, one that is not acceptable as an offering to GOD, the animal must be shown to the priest, who will set its value, either high or low. Whatever the priest sets will be its value. If the owner changes his mind and wants to redeem it, he must add twenty percent to its value.

If, however, it is any unclean animal of the kind which one does not present as an offering to the LORD, then he shall place the animal before the priest. And the priest shall assess it as either good or bad; as you, the priest, assess it, so shall it be.

If it is any unclean animal of the kind which men do not present as an offering to the LORD, then he shall bring the animal before the priest, and the priest shall value it as either good or bad; it shall be as you, the priest, value it.

If what is vowed is an unclean animal from which an offering must not be presented to the LORD, then he must stand the animal before the priest, and the priest will establish its conversion value, whether good or bad. According to the assessed conversion value of the priest, thus it will be.
