Context of Leviticus 25:9
7Even for your livestock and for the animals that are in your land—all its increase will be enough food. 8“You are to count off seven Shabbatot of years—seven times seven years, so that the time is seven Shabbatot of years—49 years. Then on the tenth day of the seventh month, on Yom Kippur, you are to sound a shofar blast—you are to sound the shofar all throughout your land. 10You are to make the fiftieth year holy, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It is to be a Jubilee to you, when each of you is to return to his own property and each of you is to return to his family. 11That fiftieth year will be your Jubilee. You are not to sow, or reap that which grows by itself, or gather from the untended vines.
