Leviticus 25:19-28

19Then the landH776 will yieldH5414 its fruitH6529, so that you can eatH398 your fillH7648 and dwellH3427 in safetyH983 in the landH5921.

20NowH3588 you may wonderH559, ‘WhatH4100 will we eatH398 in the seventhH7637 yearH8141 ifH2005 we do notH3808 sowH2232H3808 or gatherH622 our produceH8393?’ 21But I will sendH6680 My blessingH1293 upon you in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, so that the land will yieldH6213 a cropH8393 sufficient for threeH7969 yearsH8141. 22While you are sowingH2232 in the eighthH8066 yearH8141, you will be eatingH398 fromH4480 the previousH3465 harvestH8393, untilH5704 the ninthH8671 year’sH8141 harvestH8393 comes inH935.

23The landH776 must notH3808 be soldH4376 permanentlyH6783, becauseH3588 it is Mine, andH3588 youH859 are but foreignersH1616 and residentsH8453 with MeH5978. 24Thus for everyH3605 piece of propertyH776 you possessH272, you must provide forH5414 the redemptionH1353 of the landH776.

25IfH3588 your brotherH251 becomes impoverishedH4134 and sellsH4376 some of his propertyH272, his nearestH7138H413 of kinH1350 may comeH935 and redeemH1350 what his brotherH251 has soldH4465. 26Or ifH3588 a manH376 hasH1961 no oneH3808 to redeem itH1350 for him, but he prospersH5381H3027 and acquiresH4672 enoughH1767 to redeem his landH1353, 27he shall calculateH2803 the yearsH8141 since its saleH4465, repayH7725 the balanceH5736 to the manH376 to whomH834 he sold itH4376, and returnH7725 to his propertyH272. 28But ifH518 he cannotH3808 obtainH4672H3027 enoughH1767 to repayH7725 him, what he soldH4465 will remainH1961 in possessionH3027 of the buyerH7069 untilH5704 the YearH8141 of JubileeH3104. In the JubileeH3104, however, it is to be releasedH3318, so that he may returnH7725 to his propertyH272.
