¹³ For ^(A)the seller shall not return to what he has sold, while they live. ^(B)For the vision concerns all their multitude; it shall not turn back; and because of his iniquity, none can maintain his life.^[a]

²⁴ And in all the country you possess, you shall allow a redemption of the land.

²⁵ “If your brother becomes poor and sells part of his property, ^(A)then his nearest redeemer shall come and redeem what his brother has sold. ²⁶ If a man has no one to redeem it and then himself becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it, ²⁷ let ^(B)him calculate the years since he sold it and pay back the balance to the man to whom he sold it, and then return to his property. ²⁸ But if he does not have sufficient means to recover it, then what he sold shall remain in the hand of the buyer until the year of jubilee. In the jubilee it shall ^(C)be released, and ^(D)he shall return to his property.

^26 (A)You rely on the sword, ^(B)you commit abominations, and ^(C)each of you defiles his neighbor's wife; shall you then possess the land? ²⁷ Say this to them, Thus says the Lord God: ^(D)As I live, surely those who are in ^(E)the waste places shall fall by ^(F)the sword, and whoever is in the open field I will give to ^(G)the beasts to be devoured, and those who are in ^(H)strongholds and in caves shall die by ^(I)pestilence.

^22 (A)Because you have disheartened the righteous falsely, although I have not grieved him, and ^(B)you have encouraged the wicked, that ^(C)he should not turn from his evil way to save his life,

⁸ No man has power to ^(A)retain the spirit, ^(B)or power over the day of death. There is no ^(C)discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

³¹ But the houses of the villages that have no wall around them shall be classified with the fields of the land. They may be redeemed, and ^(A)they shall be released in the jubilee.
