16 “‘The Lord Yahweh says: “If the prince gives a gift to any of his sons, it is his inheritance. It shall belong to his sons. It is their possession by inheritance. 17 But if he gives of his inheritance a gift to one of his servants, it shall be his to the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince; but as for his inheritance, it shall be for his sons. 18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance, to thrust them out of their possession. He shall give inheritance to his sons out of his own possession, that my people not each be scattered from his possession.”’”

16 “Thus says the Lord God: If the prince makes a gift to any of his sons as his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons. It is their property by inheritance. 17 But if he makes a gift (A)out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his to (B)the year of liberty. Then it shall revert to the prince; surely it is his inheritance—it shall belong to his sons. 18 (C)The prince shall not take any of the inheritance of the people, (D)thrusting them out of their property. He shall give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that none of my people shall be (E)scattered from his property.”
