Ezekiel 46:16-18

New American Standard Bible

¹⁶ ‘This is what the Lord God says: “If the prince gives a ^(A)gift from his inheritance to any of his sons, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance. ¹⁷ But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the ^(B)year of ^[a]release; then it shall return to the prince. His inheritance shall be only his sons’; it shall belong to them. ¹⁸ And the prince shall ^(C)not take from the people’s inheritance, ^[b](D)depriving them of their property; he shall give his sons inheritance from his own property, so that My people will not be scattered, anyone from his property.”’”
