Leviticus 27:16-21

16‘Again, if someone consecrates to the Lord part of the field of his own property, then your assessment shall be 1proportionate to the seed needed for it: a 2homer of barley seed at fifty shekels of silver.

17If he consecrates his field as of the year of jubilee, according to your assessment it shall stand.

18If he consecrates his field after the jubilee, however, then the priest shall calculate the price for 3him 4proportionate to the years that are left until the year of jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your assessment.

19If the one who consecrates it should ever want to redeem the field, then he shall add a fifth of your assessment price to it, so that it may belong to him.

20Yet if he does not redeem the field, 5but has sold the field to another person, it may no longer be redeemed;

21and when it 6reverts in the jubilee, the field shall be holy to the Lord, like a field banned from secular use; 7it shall be for the priest as his property.
