Leviticus 25:19-28
19Then the landH776 will yieldH5414 its produceH6529, so that you can eatH398 your fillH7648 and liveH3427 securelyH983 on it. 20But ifH3588 you sayH559, “1WhatH4100 are we going to eatH398 in the seventhH7637 yearH8141 ifH2005 we do not sowH2232 nor gatherH622 inH622 our produceH8393?” 21then 2I will so orderH6680 My blessingH1293 for you in the sixthH8345 yearH8141 that it will bringH6213 forthH6213 the produceH8393 for threeH7969 yearsH8141. 22When you are sowingH2232 the eighthH8066 yearH8141, you can still eatH398 3oldH3465 thingsH3465 from the produceH8393, eatingH398 the old untilH5704 the ninthH8671 yearH8141 whenH5704 its produceH8393 comesH935 inH935.
23‘The landH776, moreover, shall not be soldH4376 permanentlyH6783, becauseH3588 4the landH776 is Mine; for 5you are only strangersH1616 and residentsH8453 with Me. 24So for everyH3605 6pieceH776 of your propertyH272, you are to provideH5414 for the redemptionH1353 of the landH776.
25‘7IfH3588 a fellowH251 countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 that he sellsH4376 part of his propertyH272, then his closestH7138 8redeemerH1350 is to comeH935 and buyH1350 backH1350 whatH4465 his relativeH251 has soldH4465. 26Or inH3588 caseH3588 someoneH376 hasH1961 noH3808 redeemerH1350, but 9recoversH3027H5381 to findH4672 sufficientH1767 meansH1767 for its redemptionH1353, 2710then he shall calculateH2803 the yearsH8141 since its saleH4465 and refundH7725 the balanceH5736 to the manH376 to whomH834 he soldH4376 it, and so returnH7725 to his propertyH272. 28But ifH518 11he has not foundH4672 sufficientH1767 meansH3027 to getH7725 it backH7725 for himself, then whatH4465 he has soldH4465 shall remainH1961 in the handsH3027 of its purchaserH7069 untilH5704 the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104; but at the jubileeH3104 it shall 12revertH3318, so that 13he may returnH7725 to his propertyH272.
