Leviticus 25:25-27
Common English Bible
25 When one of your fellow Israelites faces financial difficulty and must sell part of their family property, the closest relative[a] will come and buy back what their fellow Israelite has sold. 26 If the person doesn’t have someone to buy it back, but then manages to afford buying it back, 27 they must calculate the years since its sale and refund the balance to the person to whom they sold it. Then it will go back to the family property.[b]

Leviticus 25:25-27
New International Version
25 “‘If one of your fellow Israelites becomes poor and sells some of their property, their nearest relative(A) is to come and redeem(B) what they have sold. 26 If, however, there is no one to redeem it for them but later on they prosper(C) and acquire sufficient means to redeem it themselves, 27 they are to determine the value for the years(D) since they sold it and refund the balance to the one to whom they sold it; they can then go back to their own property.(E)
