Leviticus 25:29-34
Legacy Standard Bible

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.

Leviticus 25:29-34
Lexham English Bible

29 “‘And if a man sells a residential house in a walled city,[a] then[b] it shall be his redemption until completing a year after his selling;[c] its redemption shall last[d] a year.[e] 30 But[f] if it is not redeemed before a full year has passed,[g] then[h] the house that is in the walled city[i] shall belong to the buyer in[j] perpetuity throughout his generations; it shall not go out of the buyer’s hand[k] in the Jubilee. 31 However,[l] village houses that have no surrounding wall shall be considered open country;[m] there is redemption for it, and in the Jubilee it shall go out of the buyer’s hand.[n]

32 “‘As for[o] the cities of the Levites, that is, the houses in[p] their property’s cities, it shall be a lasting redemption[q] for the Levites. 33 And whatever anyone redeems from the Levites then[r] must go out of the buyer’s hand[s] in the Jubilee, including a house’s selling in his city’s property,[t] because the houses in[u] the cities of the Levites are their property in the midst of the Israelites.[v] 34 But[w] a[x] field of their cities’ pastureland must not be sold, because it is their property for all time.[y]
