¹⁷If he consecrates his field from the Year of Jubilee, it shall stand as your proper value. ¹⁸But^q if he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, then^r the priest shall calculate the money for him according to the number of years^s that are left over until the Year of Jubilee; and it shall be deducted from your proper value. ¹⁹And if he indeed redeems the field that is consecrated, then^t he shall add a fifth of your proper value’s money onto it, and it shall stand for^u him. ²⁰And if he does not redeem the field and if he sells the field to another man, it may not be redeemed again, ²¹and the field shall be a holy object for Yahweh when it goes out^v in the Jubilee, like a devoted^w field; it shall be the priest’s property.^x

²²“ ‘And if he consecrates for Yahweh his acquired^y field that is not the field of his inherited possession, ²³then^z the priest shall calculate for him the amount^a of your proper value until the year of the Jubilee, and he shall give your proper value on that day as a holy object for Yahweh. ²⁴In the Year of the Jubilee the field shall return to the one who bought it from him, to the one whose property the land is.
