In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession. And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another. According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of the produce, he shall sell unto thee. According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the number of crops that he selleth unto thee. And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.
