Ezekiel 46:16-18

Context

46:16 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: If the prince should give a gift to one of his sons as 1  his inheritance, it will belong to his sons, it is their property by inheritance. 46:17 But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it will be his until the year of liberty; 2  then it will revert to the prince. His inheritance will only remain with his sons. 46:18 The prince will not take away any of the people’s inheritance by oppressively removing them from their property. He will give his sons an inheritance from his own possessions so that my people will not be scattered, each from his own property.’”

1 tn The Hebrew text has no preposition; the LXX reads “from” (see v. 17).

2 sn That is, the year of Jubilee (Lev 25:8-15).
