'Now if a man consecrates his house as holy to the LORD, then the priest shall value it as either good or bad; as the priest values it, so it shall stand.
Hebrew
יד וְאִישׁ, כִּי-יַקְדִּשׁ אֶת-בֵּיתוֹ קֹדֶשׁ לַיהוָה--וְהֶעֱרִיכוֹ הַכֹּהֵן, בֵּין טוֹב וּבֵין רָע: כַּאֲשֶׁר יַעֲרִיךְ אֹתוֹ הַכֹּהֵן, כֵּן יָקוּם.
Greek
14 Καὶ ἄνθρωπος, ὃς ἂν ἁγιάσῃ τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ ἁγίαν τῷ κυρίῳ, καὶ τιμήσεται αὐτὴν ὁ ἱερεὺς ἀνὰ μέσον καλῆς καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον πονηρᾶς· ὡς ἂν τιμήσεται αὐτὴν ὁ ἱερεύς, οὕτως σταθήσεται.
