רַק אַדְמַת הַכֹּהֲנִים לֹא קָנָה
King James Version (KJV)

Only the land of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh.

Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.
