29 ‘Likewise, if a man sells a house for habitation in a walled city, then his redemption right remains valid until a full year from its sale; his right of redemption lasts a full year. 30 But if it is not redeemed for him within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city passes permanently to its purchaser throughout his generations; it does not [a]revert in the jubilee. 31 The houses of the villages, however, which have no surrounding wall, shall be considered [b]as open fields; they have redemption rights and [c]revert in the jubilee. 32 As for (A)cities of the Levites, the Levites have a permanent right of redemption for the houses of the cities which are their possession. 33 What, therefore, [d]belongs to the Levites may be redeemed, and a house sale [e]in the city of [f]their possession [g]reverts in the jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the sons of Israel. 34 (B)But pasture fields of their cities shall not be sold, for that is their perpetual possession.
