Jeremiah 32:6-9
International Standard Version
6 Jeremiah replied, “This message from the Lord came to me: 7 ‘Look, Hanamel, your cousin,[a] is coming to you and will say, “Buy my field in Anathoth for yourself, because the right of redemption to buy it belongs to you.”’
8 “Then my cousin Hanamel came to me in the courtyard of the guard just as the Lord had said, and he told me, ‘Please buy my field in Anathoth in the territory of Benjamin because you have the right to possess it, and the right to redeem it belongs to you. Buy it for yourself.’ So I knew that this was a message from the Lord.
9 “Then I bought the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel. I weighed out the silver for him—seventeen shekels[b] of silver.
