Ezekiel 46:17-19
Lexham English Bible
17 And if he give a gift from his inheritance to one from among his servants, then it will belong[a] to him until the year of release,[b] and then it will return to the prince. His inheritance with respect to his sons will be only for them. 18 But the prince shall not take from the inheritance of the people to rob[c] them, separating them from their property; from his own property he shall bestow an inheritance on his sons, so that my people will not be driven away, any one, from his property.”
19 Then he brought me through the entrance which was on the side of the gate to the holy chambers[d] to the priests; the chambers were facing northwards and, look, there was a place at the extreme end westwards.

New International Version
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;(A) then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance belongs to his sons only; it is theirs. 18 The prince must not take(B) any of the inheritance(C) 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.’”
19 Then the man brought me through the entrance(D) at the side of the gate to the sacred rooms facing north,(E) which belonged to the priests, and showed me a place at the western end.
