Everyone in your household who is ceremonially clean may eat of it.' 14 'Everything in Israel that is devoted to the LORD shall be yours.' 15 Every firstborn that opens the womb, of all flesh offered to the LORD, whether human or animal, shall belong to you. However, you must surely redeem the firstborn of humans and redeem the firstborn of unclean animals. 16 When they are a month old, you shall redeem them at your valuation, which is five shekels of silver, measured by the sanctuary shekel—twenty gerahs make a shekel. 17 But you must not redeem the firstborn of an ox, a sheep, or a goat. They are holy. You shall sprinkle their blood on the altar and burn their fat as a fire offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. 18 Their meat shall be yours, just like the breast of the wave offering and the right thigh are yours. 19 All the holy contributions the Israelites present to the LORD, I give to you, your sons, and your daughters with you as a perpetual ordinance.
