Leviticus 25:33-37 Good News Bible (GNB)

33. If a house in one of these cities is sold by a Levite and is not bought back, it must be returned in the Year of Restoration, because the houses which the Levites own in their cities are their permanent property among the people of Israel.

34. But the pasture land round the Levite cities shall never be sold; it is their property for ever.

35. If a fellow-Israelite living near you becomes poor and cannot support himself or herself, you must provide for them as you would for hired servants, so that they can continue to live near you.

36. Do not charge them any interest, but obey God and let your fellow-Israelites live near you.

37. Do not make them pay interest on the money you lend them, and do not make a profit on the food you sell them.
