The land must not be sold permanently, because it is Mine, and you are but foreigners and residents with Me.
The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
Note for ever: or, to be quite cut off: Heb. for cutting off
“‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.
And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
