I am the God of Bethel, where you poured oil on the stone marker and made a solemn vow to Me. Get up, leave this land, and return to your native land.'"
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_3 27:1-34
1
The LORD spoke to Moses:
2
"Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When someone makes a special vow to the LORD that involves the valuation of people,
3
if the valuation concerns a male from 20 to 60 years old, your valuation is 50 silver shekels [measured] by the standard sanctuary shekel.
4
If the person is a female, your valuation is 30 shekels.
5
If the person is from five to 20 years old, your valuation for a male is 20 shekels and for a female 10 shekels.
6
If the person is from one month to five years old, your valuation for a male is five silver shekels, and for a female your valuation is three shekels of silver.
7
If the person is 60 years or more, your valuation is 15 shekels for a male and 10 shekels for a female.
8
But if one is too poor to pay the valuation, he must present the person before the priest and the priest will set a value for him. The priest will set a value for him according to what the one making the vow can afford.
9
"If the vow involves one of the animals that may be brought as an offering to the LORD, any of these he gives to the LORD will be holy.
10
He may not replace it or make a substitution for it, either good for bad, or bad for good. But if he does substitute one animal for another, both that animal and its substitute will be holy.
11
"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.
12
The priest will set its value, whether high or low; the price will be set as the priest makes the valuation for you.
13
If the one who brought it decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the valuation.
14
"When a man consecrates his house as holy to the LORD, the priest will assess its value, whether high or low. The price will stand just as the priest assesses it.
15
But if the one who consecrated his house redeems [it], he must add a fifth to the valuation price, and it will be his.
16
"If a man consecrates to the LORD any part of a field that he possesses, your valuation will be proportional to the seed needed to sow it, at the rate of 50 silver shekels for [every] five bushels of barley seed.
17
If he consecrates his field during the Year of Jubilee, the price will stand according to your valuation.
18
But if he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, the priest will calculate the price for him in proportion to the years left until the [next] Year of Jubilee, so that your valuation will be reduced.
19
If the one who consecrated the field decides to redeem it, he must add a fifth to the valuation price, and the field will transfer back to him.
20
But if he does not redeem the field or if he has sold it to another man, it is no longer redeemable.
21
When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will be holy to the LORD like a field permanently set apart; it becomes the priest's property.
22
"If a person consecrates to the LORD a field he has purchased that is not part of his inherited landholding,
23
then the priest will calculate for him the amount of the valuation up to the Year of Jubilee, and the person will pay the valuation on that day as a holy offering to the LORD.
24
In the Year of Jubilee the field will return to the one he bought it from, the original owner.
25
All your valuations will be [measured] by the standard sanctuary shekel, 20 gerahs to the shekel.
26
"But no one can consecrate a firstborn of the livestock, whether an animal from the herd or flock, to the LORD, because a firstborn [already] belongs to the LORD.
27
If it is one of the unclean livestock, it must be ransomed according to your valuation by adding a fifth of its value to it. If it is not redeemed, it can be sold according to your valuation.
28
"Nothing that a man permanently sets apart to the LORD from all he owns, whether a person, an animal, or his inherited landholding, can be sold or redeemed; everything set apart is especially holy to the LORD.
29
No person who has been set apart [for destruction] is to be ransomed; he must be put to death.
30
"Every tenth of the land's produce, grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.
31
If a man decides to redeem any part of this tenth, he must add one-fifth to its value.
32
Every tenth animal from the herd or flock, which passes under the [shepherd's] rod, will be holy to the LORD.
33
He is not to inspect whether it is good or bad, and he is not to make a substitution for it. But if he does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute will be holy; they cannot be redeemed."
34
These are the commands the LORD gave Moses for the Israelites on Mount Sinai.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_4 6:1-20
1
The LORD instructed Moses:
2
"Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When a man or woman makes a special vow, a Nazirite vow, to consecrate himself to the Lord,
3
he is to abstain from wine and beer. He must not drink vinegar made from wine or from beer. He must not drink any grape juice or eat fresh grapes or raisins.
4
He is not to eat anything produced by the grapevine, from seeds to skin, during his vow.
5
"You must not cut his hair throughout the time of his vow of consecration. He must be holy until the time is completed during which he consecrates himself to the LORD; he is to let the hair of his head grow long.
6
He must not go near a dead body during the time he consecrates himself to the LORD.
7
He is not to defile himself for his father or mother, or his brother or sister, when they die, because the hair consecrated to his God is on his head.
8
He is holy to the LORD during the time of consecration.
9
"If someone suddenly dies near him, defiling his consecrated head of hair, he must shave his head on the day of his purification; he is to shave it on the seventh day.
10
On the eighth day he is to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
11
The priest is to offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to make atonement on behalf of the Nazirite, since he sinned because of the corpse. On that day he must consecrate his head [again].
12
He is to rededicate his time of consecration to the LORD and to bring a year-old male lamb as a restitution offering. But do not count the previous period, because his consecrated hair became defiled.
13
"This is the law of the Nazirite: On the day his time of consecration is completed, he must be brought to the entrance to the tent of meeting.
14
He is to present an offering to the LORD of one unblemished year-old male lamb as a burnt offering, one unblemished year-old female lamb as a sin offering, one unblemished ram as a fellowship offering,
15
along with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and a basket of unleavened cakes made from fine flour mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers coated with oil.
16
"The priest is to present [these] before the LORD and sacrifice the Nazirite's sin offering and burnt offering.
17
He will also offer the ram as a fellowship sacrifice to the LORD, together with the basket of unleavened bread. Then the priest will offer the accompanying grain offering and drink offering.
18
"The Nazirite is to shave his consecrated head at the entrance to the tent of meeting, take the hair from his head, and put [it] on the fire under the fellowship sacrifice.
19
The priest is to take the boiled shoulder from the ram, one unleavened cake from the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and put [them] into the hands of the Nazirite after he has shaved his consecrated head.
20
The priest is to wave them as a presentation offering before the LORD. It is a holy portion for the priest, in addition to the breast of the presentation offering and the thigh of the contribution. After that, the Nazirite may drink wine.

1
On the twenty-fourth day of this month the Israelites assembled; they were fasting, [wearing] sackcloth, [and had put] dust on their heads.
2
Those of Israelite descent separated themselves from all foreigners, and they stood and confessed their sins and the guilt of their fathers.
3
While they stood in their places, they read from the book of the law of the LORD their God for a fourth of the day and [spent] another fourth of the day in confession and worship of the LORD their God.
4
Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani stood on the raised platform [built] for the Levites and cried out loudly to the LORD their God.
5

6
You alone are the LORD. You created the heavens, the highest heavens with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all of them, and the heavenly host worships You.
7
You are the LORD God who chose Abram and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans, and changed his name to Abraham.
8
You found his heart faithful in Your sight, and made a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites, and Girgashites-- to give it to his descendants. You have kept Your promise, for You are righteous.
9
You saw the oppression of our ancestors in Egypt and heard their cry at the Red Sea.
10
You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh, all his officials, and all the people of his land, for You knew how arrogantly they treated our ancestors. You made a name for Yourself that endures to this day.

and how he swore an oath to the LORD, making a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_21 5:1-7
1
Guard your step when you go to the house of God. Better to draw near in obedience than to offer the sacrifice as fools do, for they are ignorant and do wrong.
2
Do not be hasty to speak, and do not be impulsive to make a speech before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few.
3
For dreams result from much work and a fool's voice from many words.
4
When you make a vow to God, don't delay fulfilling it, because He does not delight in fools. Fulfill what you vow.
5
Better that you do not vow than that you vow and not fulfill it.
6
Do not let your mouth bring guilt on you, and do not say in the presence of the messenger that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry with your words and destroy the work of your hands?
7
For many dreams bring futility, also many words. So, fear God.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_23 19:21

When it was day, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves under a curse: neither to eat nor to drink until they had killed Paul.
13
There were more than 40 who had formed this plot.
14
These men went to the chief priests and elders and said, "We have bound ourselves under a solemn curse that we won't eat anything until we have killed Paul.
15
So now you, along with the Sanhedrin, make a request to the commander that he bring him down to you as if you were going to investigate his case more thoroughly. However, before he gets near, we are ready to kill him."
