Leviticus 25:15-16

25:15 You may buy it from your fellow citizen according to the number of years since ¹  the last jubilee; he may sell it to you according to the years of produce that are left. ²  25:16 The more years there are, ³  the more you may make its purchase price, and the fewer years there are, ⁴  the less you must make its purchase price, because he is only selling to you a number of years of ⁵  produce.

25:51 If there are still many years, in keeping with them ⁸  he must refund most of the cost of his purchase for his redemption, 25:52 but if only a few years remain ⁹  until the jubilee, he must calculate for himself in keeping with the remaining years and refund it for his redemption.
