Leviticus 25:13-34

13In thisH2063 YearH8141 of JubileeH3104, eachH376 of you shall returnH7725 toH413 his own propertyH272.

14IfH3588 you make a saleH4376H4465 to your neighborH5997 orH176 a purchaseH7069 fromH3027 himH5997, you must notH408 take advantageH3238 of eachH376 otherH251. 15You are to buyH7069 fromH854 your neighborH5997 according to the numberH4557 of yearsH8141 sinceH310 the last JubileeH3104; he is to sellH4376 to you according to the numberH4557 of harvestH8393 years remainingH8141. 16You shall increaseH7235 the priceH4736 in proportionH6310 to a greater numberH7230 of yearsH8141, or decreaseH4591 it in proportion toH6310 a lesserH4591 number of yearsH8141; forH3588 heH1931 is sellingH4376 you a given number ofH4557 harvestsH8393.

17Do notH3808 take advantageH3238 of eachH376 otherH5997, but fearH3372 your GodH430; forH3588 IH589 am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

18You are to keepH6213 My statutesH2708 andH853 carefullyH8104 observeH6213 My judgmentsH4941, so that you may dwellH3427 securelyH983 inH5921 the landH776. 19Then the landH776 will yieldH5414 its fruitH6529, so that you can eatH398 your fillH7648 and dwellH3427 in safetyH983 in the landH5921.

20NowH3588 you may wonderH559, ‘WhatH4100 will we eatH398 in the seventhH7637 yearH8141 ifH2005 we do notH3808 sowH2232H3808 or gatherH622 our produceH8393?’ 21But I will sendH6680 My blessingH1293 upon you in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, so that the land will yieldH6213 a cropH8393 sufficient for threeH7969 yearsH8141. 22While you are sowingH2232 in the eighthH8066 yearH8141, you will be eatingH398 fromH4480 the previousH3465 harvestH8393, untilH5704 the ninthH8671 year’sH8141 harvestH8393 comes inH935.

23The landH776 must notH3808 be soldH4376 permanentlyH6783, becauseH3588 it is Mine, andH3588 youH859 are but foreignersH1616 and residentsH8453 with MeH5978. 24Thus for everyH3605 piece of propertyH776 you possessH272, you must provide forH5414 the redemptionH1353 of the landH776.

25IfH3588 your brotherH251 becomes impoverishedH4134 and sellsH4376 some of his propertyH272, his nearestH7138H413 of kinH1350 may comeH935 and redeemH1350 what his brotherH251 has soldH4465. 26Or ifH3588 a manH376 hasH1961 no oneH3808 to redeem itH1350 for him, but he prospersH5381H3027 and acquiresH4672 enoughH1767 to redeem his landH1353, 27he shall calculateH2803 the yearsH8141 since its saleH4465, repayH7725 the balanceH5736 to the manH376 to whomH834 he sold itH4376, and returnH7725 to his propertyH272. 28But ifH518 he cannotH3808 obtainH4672H3027 enoughH1767 to repayH7725 him, what he soldH4465 will remainH1961 in possessionH3027 of the buyerH7069 untilH5704 the YearH8141 of JubileeH3104. In the JubileeH3104, however, it is to be releasedH3318, so that he may returnH7725 to his propertyH272.

29IfH3588 a manH376 sellsH4376 a houseH1004H4186 in a walledH2346 cityH5892, he retainsH1961 his right of redemptionH1353 untilH5704 a fullH8552 yearH8141 after its saleH4465; during that yearH3117 it may beH1961 redeemedH1353. 30IfH518 it is notH3808 redeemedH1350 by the endH5704H4390 of a fullH8549H6965 yearH8141, then the houseH1004 in the walledH2346 cityH5892 is permanentlyH6783 transferred to its buyerH7069 and his descendantsH1755. It is notH3808 to be releasedH3318 in the JubileeH3104. 31But housesH1004 in villagesH2691 withH834 noH369 wallsH2346 around themH5439H5921 are to be consideredH2803 as open fieldsH7704H776. They may be redeemedH1353, and they shall beH1961 releasedH3318 in the JubileeH3104.

32As for the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881, the LevitesH3881 alwaysH5769 haveH1961 the right to redeemH1353 their housesH1004 in the citiesH5892 they possessH272. 33So whateverH834 belongs toH4480 the LevitesH3881 may be redeemedH1350—a houseH1004 soldH4465 in a cityH5892 they possessH272—and must be releasedH3318 in the JubileeH3104, becauseH3588 the housesH1004H1931 in the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881 are their possessionH272 amongH8432 the IsraelitesH1121H3478. 34But the openH7704 pasturelandH4054 around their citiesH5892 may notH3808 be soldH4376, forH3588 thisH1931 is their permanentH5769 possessionH272.
