"`Notwithstanding, no devoted thing, that a man shall devote to Yahweh of all that he has, whether of man or animal, or of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy to Yahweh.

If he changes it at all, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy. It shall not be redeemed.'"
