Numbers 18:17 in Context — Numbers 18
15 Todo lo que abriere matriz en toda carne que ofrecerán á Jehová, así de hombres como de animales, será tuyo: mas has de hacer redimir el primogénito del hombre: también harás redimir el primogénito de animal inmundo.
16 Y de un mes harás efectuar el rescate de ellos, conforme á tu estimación, por precio de cinco siclos, al siclo del santuario, [que] es de veinte óbolos.
17 Mas el primogénito de vaca, y el primogénito de oveja, y el primogénito de cabra, no redimirás; santificados son: la sangre de ellos rociarás sobre el altar, y quemarás la grosura de ellos, ofrenda encendida en olor suave á Jehová.
18 Y la carne de ellos será tuya: como el pecho de la mecedura y como la espaldilla derecha, será tuya.
19 Todas las ofrendas elevadas de las cosas santas, que los hijos de Israel ofrecieren á Jehová, helas dado para ti, y para tus hijos y para tus hijas contigo, por estatuto perpetuo: pacto de sal perpetuo es delante de Jehová para ti y para tu simiente contigo.
