Ezekiel 46:16-18
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
16 Thus saith the Lord God: If the prince give a gift to any of his sons: the inheritance of it shall go to his children, they shall possess it by inheritance.
17 But if he give a legacy out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of release, and it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall go to his sons.
18 And the prince shall not take of the people's inheritance by violence, nor of their possession: but out of his own possession he shall give an inheritance to his sons: that my people be not dispersed every man from his possession.

Ezekiel 46:16-18
New International Version
16 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: If the prince makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his sons, it will also belong to his descendants; it is to be their property by inheritance.(A) 17 If, however, he makes a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, the servant may keep it until the year of freedom;(B) then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs to his sons only; it is theirs. 18 The prince must not take(C) any of the inheritance(D) of the people, driving them off their property. He is to give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that not one of my people will be separated from their property.’”
