Leviticus 25:8-22

8And thou shalt count seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; so that the days of the seven sabbaths of years be unto thee forty-nine years.

9Then shalt thou cause the loud sound of the trumpet to go forth in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; on the day of atonement shall ye cause the trumpet to go forth throughout your land.

10And ye shall hallow the year of the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty in the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; a [year of] jubilee shall it be unto you, and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family;

11a year of jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap its aftergrowth, nor gather [the fruit of] its undressed vines.

12For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; out of the field shall ye eat its produce.

13In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

14And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another.

15According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of the produce, he shall sell unto thee.

16According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the number of crops that he selleth unto thee.

17And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy 1God; for I am Jehovah your 2God.

18And ye shall do my statutes, and observe mine ordinances and do them: thus shall ye dwell in your land securely.

19And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat and be satisfied, and dwell therein securely.

20And if ye say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our produce;

21then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, that it may bring forth produce for three years;

22and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat of the old fruit until the ninth year; until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old.
