for, mine, is every firstborn, in the day when I smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, hallowed unto myself every firstborn in Israel, both of man and of beast,—mine, did they become, and belong unto me, Yahweh.
every thing that is born first of all flesh that may be offered unto Yahweh among men and among beasts, shall be thine,—only thou shalt, redeem, the firstborn of men, and the firstborn of unclean beasts, shalt thou redeem.
