Leviticus 25:16
ContextNET © | The more years there are, 1 the more you may make its purchase price, and the fewer years there are, 2 the less you must make its purchase price, because he is only selling to you a number of years of 3 produce. |
NIV © | When the years are many, you are to increase the price, and when the years are few, you are to decrease the price, because what he is really selling you is the number of crops. |
NASB © | ‘In proportion to the extent of the years you shall increase its price, and in proportion to the fewness of the years you shall diminish its price, for it is a number of crops he is selling to you. |
NLT © | The more the years, the higher the price; the fewer the years, the lower the price. After all, the person selling the land is actually selling you a certain number of harvests. |
MSG © | The more years left, the more money; you can raise the price. But the fewer years left, the less money; decrease the price. What you are buying and selling in fact is the number of crops you're going to harvest. |
BBE © | If the number of years is great, the price will be increased, and if the number of years is small, the price will be less, for it is the produce of a certain number of years which the man is giving you. |
NRSV © | If the years are more, you shall increase the price, and if the years are fewer, you shall diminish the price; for it is a certain number of harvests that are being sold to you. |
NKJV © | ‘According to the multitude of years you shall increase its price, and according to the fewer number of years you shall diminish its price; for he sells to you according to the number of the years of the crops. |

NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “To the mouth of the many years.” 2 tn Heb “to the mouth of the few years.” 3 tn Heb “a number of produce”; the words “years of” are implied. As an alternative this could be translated “a number of harvests” (cf. NRSV, NLT). |
