New Testament

Leviticus 25:29-34 Modern English Version (MEV)

29. If a man sells a house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a year after it is sold, within a full year he may have the right to buy it back.

30. If it is not redeemed within the time of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be given permanently to him who bought it throughout his generations. It shall not be returned in the Jubilee.

31. But the houses of the villages that have no wall around them shall be counted as the fields of the land. They may be redeemed, and they shall be returned in the Jubilee.

32. For the cities of the Levites, they may redeem at any time the houses in the cities that they possess.

33. If a Levite purchases back the house that was sold in the city of his possession, then it shall be returned in the Jubilee. For the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

34. But the fields of the land of their cities may not be sold, for they are their perpetual possession.
