# Those that are to be redeemed by the people must be redeemed after becoming one month old

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "The people must buy them back when they become one month old" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

# Those that are to be redeemed

Most likely this refers only to firstborn humans that must be redeemed and not to firstborn unclean animals.

# five shekels ... which equals twenty gerahs

If it is necessary to use modern weight units, here are two ways of doing it. Alternate translation: "five pieces of silver ... each of which equals ten grams" or "fifty grams of silver, using the standard weights that are used in the sanctuary" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-bweight]])

# five shekels

A shekel is a unit of weight. What was weighed can be stated clearly. Alternate translation: "five shekels of silver" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])

# sanctuary shekel
