Leviticus 25:26-28

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ But suppose they do not have anyone to buy it back for them. And suppose things go well for them and they earn enough money to buy it back themselves. ²⁷ Then they must decide how much the crops have become worth since the time they sold the land. They must take that amount off the price the land was sold for. They must give the one selling it back to them the money that is left. Then they can go back to their own property. ²⁸ But suppose they have not earned enough money to pay them back. Then the buyer they sold the land to will keep it until the Year of Jubilee. At that time it will be returned to them. Then they can go back to their property.
