²⁴ Wherever there is property in land, the owner is to have the right of getting it back.

²⁷ Then let him take into account the years from the time when he gave it up, and make up the loss for the rest of the years to him who took it, and so get back his property.

³¹ But houses in small unwalled towns will be the same as property in the country; they may be got back, and they will go back to their owners in the year of Jubilee.

⁵¹ If there is still a long time, he will give back, on account of it, a part of the price which was given for him.

⁵² And if there is only a short time, he will take account of it with his master, and in relation to the number of years he will give back the price of making him free.

⁵³ And he will be with him as a servant working for payment year by year; his master is not to be cruel to him before your eyes.

²³ And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.

³⁰ But God has given you a place in Christ Jesus, through whom God has given us wisdom and righteousness and salvation, and made us holy:

⁷ In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace,

¹⁴ Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.

³⁰ And do not give grief to the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were marked for the day of salvation.
