Leviticus 25:20-32

²⁰That if ye say (or And if ye say to me), What shall we eat in the seventh year, if we sow not, neither gather (in) our fruits?

²¹(For an answer), I shall give my blessing to you in the sixth year, and it shall make the fruits of three years;

²²and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat eld fruits till to the ninth year; (yea), till new things come forth, ye shall eat the eld things.

²³Also the land shall not be sold into without end, for it is mine, and ye be my comelings, and my tenants;

²⁴wherefore all the country of your possession shall be sold under the condition of again-buying. (and so all the land of your possession shall be sold under the condition of being able to buy it back.)

²⁵If thy brother is made poor, and selleth his little possession, and his nigh kinsmen will, he may again-buy that that he sold (or he can buy back what he hath sold);

²⁶soothly if he hath no nigh kinsman, and he may find the price to again-buy, (and if he hath no one near of kin, but he findeth the money to buy it back,)

²⁷the fruits shall be reckoned from that time in which he sold it, and he shall yield that that is left to the buyer, and he shall receive so his possession again (or and so he shall receive his possession back again).

²⁸That if his hand findeth not, that he yield the price, the buyer shall have that that he bought, till to the year of jubilee; for in that year each selling shall go again to the lord, and to the first wielder. (But if his hand findeth not, so that he can pay the price, the buyer shall have what he bought, until the Jubilee Year; then in that year each parcel of land which hath been purchased, shall return to its original owner.)

²⁹He that selleth his house, within the walls of a city, shall have license to again-buy (it), till one year be full-filled; (He who selleth his house, within the walls of a city, shall have license to buy it back, until one year is fulfilled;)

³⁰if he again-buyeth (it) not, and the circle of the year is passed, the buyer shall wield it, and his heirs into without end, and it shall not be able to be again-bought, yea, in the jubilee. (but if he buyeth it not back, and the circle of the year is passed, the buyer, and his heirs, shall own it forever, and it shall not be able to be bought back, yea, even in the Jubilee Year.)

³¹Forsooth if the house is in a town that hath not walls, it shall be sold by the law of the fields; soothly if it is not again-bought in the jubilee, it shall turn again to the lord thereof, (or and even if it is not bought back, in the Jubilee Year it shall return to its original owner).

³²The houses of the deacons, that be in the cities, may evermore be again-bought; (But the houses of the Levites, that be in the cities, can be bought back forevermore;)
