Leviticus 25:2-7

2The Lord said, ‘Speak to Israel's people. They will go into the land that I will give to them. Then the land must have a Sabbath rest to the Lord.

3They can plant seeds in the fields for six years. They can cut the leaves of the plants and they can harvest the fruit for six years.

4In the seventh year, the land must have a rest. They must not plant seeds in the fields or cut the leaves.

5They must not harvest fruit or grain. The land must have a year for rest.

6All of the people can eat anything that grows by itself in the Sabbath year. That will be food for you and for your servants and for your animals. And other people who live among you can eat it.

7The wild animals also can eat anything that grows by itself in the Sabbath year.
