1
The LORD
then spoke
to Moses
at Mount
Sinai,
saying,
2
"Speak
to the sons
of Israel
and say
to them, 'When
you come
into the land
which
I shall give
you, then the land
shall have
a sabbath
to the LORD.
3
'
Six
years
you shall sow
your field,
and six
years
you shall prune
your vineyard
and gather
in its crop,
4
but during the seventh
year
the land
shall have
a sabbath
rest,
a sabbath
to the LORD;
you shall not sow
your field
nor
prune
your vineyard.
5
'
Your harvest's
aftergrowth
you shall not reap,
and your grapes
of untrimmed vines
you shall not gather;
the land
shall have
a sabbatical
year.
6
All of you shall have
the sabbath
products of the land
for food;
yourself, and your male
and female slaves,
and your hired man
and your foreign resident,
those who live as aliens
with you.
7
'
Even your cattle
and the animals
that are in your land
sh
all
have
all
its crops
to eat.
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.
9
'
You shall then sound
a ram's
horn
abroad on the tenth
day of the seventh
month;
on the day
of atonement
you shall sound
a
horn
all
through your land.
10
'
You shall thus consecrate
the fiftieth
year
and proclaim
a release
through the land
to all
its inhabitants.
It shall be a jubilee
for you,
and each
of you shall return
to his own property,
and each
of you shall return
to his family.
11
You shall have
the fiftieth
year
as a jubilee;
you shall not sow,
nor
reap
its aftergrowth,
nor
gather
in from its untrimmed vines.
12
'
For it is a jubilee;
it shall be holy
to you. You shall eat
its crops
out of the field.
13
'
On this
year
of jubilee
each
of you shall return
to his own property.
14
'
If
you make
a sale,
moreover, to your friend
or
buy
from your friend's
hand,
you shall not wrong
one
another.
15
'
Corresponding to the number
of years
after
the jubilee,
you shall buy
from your friend;
he is to sell
to you according to the number
of years
of crops.
16
In proportion
to the extent
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.
17
'
So you shall not wrong
one
another,
but you shall fear
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 you may live
securely
on the land.
19
'
Then the land
will yield
its produce,
so that you can eat
your fill
and live
securely
on it.
20
'
But
if
you say,
"What
are we going to eat
on the seventh
year
if
we do not sow
or gather
in our crops?"
21
then I will so order
My blessing
for you in the sixth
year
that it will bring forth
the crop
for three
years.
22
When you are sowing
the eighth
year
,
you can still eat
old
things
from the crop,
eating
the
old
until
the ninth
year
when
its crop
comes
in.
23
The land,
moreover, shall not be sold
permanently,
for the land
is Mine; for you are but aliens
and sojourners
with Me.
24
'
Thus for every
piece
of your property,
you are to provide
for the redemption
of the land.
25
'
If
a fellow
countryman
of yours becomes so poor
he has to sell
part of his property,
then his nearest
kinsman
is to come
and buy back
what
his relative
has sold.
26
'
Or in case
a man
has
no
kinsman,
but so recovers
his means
as to find
sufficient
for its redemption,
27
then he shall calculate
the years
since its sale
and refund
the balance
to the man
to whom
he sold
it, and so return
to his property.
28
'
But if
he has not found
sufficient
means
to get
it back
for himself, then what he has sold
shall remain
in the hands
of its purchaser
until
the year
of jubilee;
but at the jubilee
it shall revert,
that he may return
to his property.
29
'
Likewise, if
a man
sells
a dwelling
house
in a walled
city,
then his redemption
right
remains
valid until
a full
year
from its sale;
his
right
of redemption
lasts
a full
year
.
30
'
But if
it is not bought back
for him within
the space
of a full
year,
then the house
that is in the walled
city
passes
permanently
to its purchaser
throughout his generations;
it does not revert
in the jubilee.
31
'
The houses
of the villages,
however, which
have no
surrounding
wall
shall be considered
as open
fields;
they have
redemption rights
and revert
in the jubilee.
32
'
As for cities
of
the Levites
,
the Levites
have
a permanent
right of redemption
for the houses
of the cities
which are their possession.
33
'
What,
therefore, belongs
to the Levites
may be redeemed
and a house
sale
in the city
of this possession
reverts
in the jubilee,
for the houses
of the cities
of the Levites
are their possession
among
the sons
of Israel.
34
'
But pasture
fields
of their cities
shall not be sold,
for that is their perpetual
possession.
35
'
Now in case
a countryman
of yours becomes poor
and his means
with regard
to you falter,
then you are to sustain
him, like a stranger
or a sojourner,
that he may live
with you.
36
'
Do not take
usurious
interest
from him, but revere
your God,
that your countryman
may live
with you.
37
'
You shall not give
him your silver
at interest,
nor
your food
for gain.
38
I am the LORD
your God,
who
brought
you out of the land
of Egypt
to give
you the land
of Canaan
and to be your God.
39
'
If
a countryman
of yours becomes so poor
with regard
to you that he sells
himself to you, you shall not subject
him to a slave's
service.
40
'
He shall be with you as a hired man,
as if he were a sojourner;
he shall serve
with you until
the year
of jubilee.
41
'
He shall then go
out from you, he and his sons
with him, and shall go
back
to his family,
that he may return
to the property
of his forefathers.
42
For they are My servants
whom
I brought
out from the land
of Egypt;
they are not to be sold
in a slave
sale.
43
'
You shall not rule
over him with severity,
but are to revere
your God.
44
'
As for your
male
and fe
male
slaves
whom
you may have--
you may acquire
male
and fe
male
slaves
from the pagan nations
that are around
you.
45
Then, too,
it is out of the sons
of the sojourners
who
live as aliens
among
you that you may gain acquisition,
and out of their families
who
are with you,
who
m
they will have produced
in your land;
they also may become
your possession.
46
'
You may even bequeath
them to your sons
after
you, to receive
as a possession;
you can use
them as permanent
slaves.
But in respect to your countrymen,
the sons
of Israel,
you shall not rule
with severity
over one
another.
47
'
Now if
the means
of a stranger
or of a sojourner
with you becomes sufficient,
and a countryman
of yours becomes so poor
with regard
to him as to sell
himself to a stranger
who is sojourning
with you, or
to the descendants
of a stranger
's
family,
48
then he shall have
redemption right
after
he has been sold.
One
of his brothers
may redeem
him,
49
or
his uncle,
or
his uncle's
son,
may redeem
him,
or
one of his blood relatives
from his family
may redeem
him;
or
if he prospers,
he
may redeem
himself.
50
He then with his purchaser
shall calculate
from the year
when he sold
himself to him up to the year
of jubilee;
and the price
of his sale
shall correspond
to the number
of years.
It is like the days
of a hired man
that he shall be with him.
51
'
If
there are still
many
years,
he shall refund
part of his purchase
price
in proportion
to them for his own redemption;
52
and if
few
years
remain
until
the year
of jubilee,
he shall so calculate
with him. In proportion
to his
years
he is to refund
the amount for his redemption.
53
'
Like a man hired
year
by
year
he shall be with him; he shall not rule
over him with severity
in your sight.
54
Even if
he is not redeemed
by these
means, he shall still go
out in the year
of jubilee,
he and his sons
with him.
55
'
For the sons
of Israel
are My servants;
they are My servants
whom
I brought
out from the land
of Egypt.
I am the LORD
your God.
