Ezekiel 46:17-19
Evangelical Heritage Version
17 But if the prince gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will belong to him only until the year of liberty,[a] when it must revert to the prince. It is his inheritance alone and must remain with his sons. 18 The prince may not take any of the inheritance of the people by evicting them from their property. From his own property he is to give an inheritance to his sons, so that my people will not be scattered—not a single man from his property.
