Leviticus 25:8-22

8‘You are also to count off seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven sabbaths of years, namely, forty-nine years. 9You shall then sound a ram’s horn abroad on 1the tenth day of the seventh month; on the day of atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land. 10You shall thus consecrate the fiftieth year and 2proclaim 3a release through the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, 4and 5each of you shall return to his own property, 6and each of you shall return to his family. 11You shall have the fiftieth year as a jubilee; you shall not sow, nor reap its aftergrowth, nor gather in from its untrimmed vines. 12For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat its crops out of the field.

13‘7On this year of jubilee each of you shall return to his own property. 14If you make a sale, moreover, to your friend or buy from your friend’s hand, 8you shall not wrong one another. 15Corresponding to the number of years after the jubilee, you shall buy from your 9friend; he is to sell to you according to the number of years of crops. 1610In proportion to the 11extent of the years you shall increase its price, and in proportion to the fewness of the years you shall diminish its price, for it is a number of crops he is selling to you. 17So 12you shall not wrong one another, but you shall 13fear your God; for I am the Lord your God.

18‘You shall thus observe My statutes and keep My judgments, so as to carry them out, that 14you may live securely on the land. 19Then the land will yield its produce, so that you can eat your fill and live securely on it. 20But if you say, “15What are we going to eat on the seventh year 16if we do not sow or gather in our crops?” 21then 17I will so order My blessing for you in the sixth year that it will bring forth the crop for three years. 22When you are sowing the eighth year, you can still eat 18old things from the crop, eating the old until the ninth year when its crop comes in.
