29 “If a man sells a house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it has been sold. For a full year he has the right of redemption. 30 But if it is not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city will belong permanently to the one who bought it throughout his generations. It will not be released in the Jubilee. 31 But the houses of the villages that have no wall around them are to be considered as open country. They have redemption rights and are to be released in the Jubilee.

32 “But as for the towns of the Levites, the Levites may have a permanent right of redemption for the houses in the towns of their possession. 33 The Levites may redeem a house sold in the town of its possession. Also it should be released in the Jubilee, for the houses of the Levitical towns are their possession among Bnei-Yisrael. 34 But the fields in the pasturelands of their cities may not be sold, for it is their permanent possession.

35 “If your brother has become poor and his hand cannot support himself among you, then you are to uphold him. He may live with you like an outsider or a temporary resident. 36 Take no excessive interest from him, but fear your God, so that your brother can live with you. 37 You are not to lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. 38 I am Adonai your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.
