20And if ye should say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we are not permitted to sow, and we cannot gather in our harvest:
21Then will I command my blessing unto you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth a harvest for three years.
22And when ye sow in the eighth year, then shall ye eat yet of the old harvest; until the ninth year, until its harvest come in, shall ye eat of the old store.
23And the land shall not be sold for a permanence to the purchaser; for the land is mine; for strangers and sojourners are ye with me.
24And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.
25If thy brother become poor, and sell away some of his possession: then may his nearest of kin come and redeem what his brother hath sold.
26And if the man have none to redeem it, and he acquire the means, sufficient to be able to redeem it himself:
27Then let him reckon the years since his sale, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so shall he return unto his possession.
28But if his means do not suffice to enable him to restore it to him: then shall that which he hath sold remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of the jubilee; and it shall be freed in the jubilee, and he shall return unto his possession.
29And if a man sell a dwelling-house in a walled city: then shall the time of redemption last till the end of the year of his sale; a full year shall his time of redemption last.
30And if it be not redeemed within the expiration of a full year: then shall the house which is in the walled city remain as a permanence to him that bought it throughout his generations; it shall not become freed in the jubilee.
31But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they shall have the right of redemption, and they shall become freed in the jubilee.
32And respecting the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, a perpetual right of redemption shall belong to the Levites.
