Context of Leviticus 25:9

7The wild animals also can eat anything that grows by itself in the Sabbath year. 8The people must count seven lots of Sabbath years. That is 49 years. In the 50th year they must make loud music. They must blow trumpets on the tenth day of the seventh month. That is the Day of Atonement. They must blow the trumpet through all the country. 10The year will be special. It is a Jubilee year. It is a time for every one of my people to become free. Everyone can return to his own land and to his family. 11The 50th year is a Jubilee year. The people must not plant any seed in the fields. They must not harvest anything that grows by itself on the bushes.
