Leviticus 25:27-29

International Children’s Bible

²⁷ He must count the years since the land was sold. He must use that number to decide how much to pay for the land. Then he may buy it back. And the land will be his again. ²⁸ But he might not find enough money to buy it back for himself. Then the one who bought it will keep it until the year of Jubilee. But during that celebration, the land will go back to the first owner’s family.

²⁹ “‘Someone may sell a home in a walled city. But, for a full year after he sold it, he has the right to buy it back.
