    17If they dedicate their field during the Year of Jubilee, the valuation will stand as it is.

    18But if they dedicate their field after the Jubilee, the priest will calculate the value based on the number of years left until the next Jubilee, and a reduction will be made from the original valuation.

    19If the person who dedicated the field wishes to redeem it, they must add a fifth to the valuation price, and the field will be theirs again.

    20If they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can no longer be redeemed.
