LEV-25:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
LEV-25:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land
keep a sabbath unto the LORD.
LEV-25:3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou
shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;
LEV-25:4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto
the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy
field, nor prune thy vineyard.
LEV-25:5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest
thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine
undressed: [for] it is a year of rest unto the land.
LEV-25:6 And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for
thee, and for thy servant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired
servant, and for thy stranger that sojourneth with thee,
LEV-25:7 And for thy cattle, and for the beast that [are] in thy
land, shall all the increase thereof be meat.
LEV-25:8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee,
seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of
years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
LEV-25:9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubilee to
sound on the tenth [day] of the seventh month, in the day of
atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your
land.
LEV-25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim
liberty throughout [all] the land unto all the inhabitants
thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return
every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man
unto his family.
LEV-25:11 A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye
shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it,
nor gather [the grapes] in it of thy vine undressed.
LEV-25:12 For it [is] the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you: ye
shall eat the increase thereof out of the field. LEV-25:13 In
the year of this jubilee ye shall return every man unto his
possession.
LEV-25:14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest
[ought] of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one
another:
LEV-25:15 According to the number of years after the jubilee
thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, [and] according unto the number
of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:
LEV-25:16 According to the multitude of years thou shalt
increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of
years thou shalt diminish the price of it: for [according] to
the number [of the years] of the fruits doth he sell unto thee.
LEV-25:17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou
shalt fear thy God: for I [am] the LORD your God.
LEV-25:18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my
judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
LEV-25:19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat
your fill, and dwell therein in safety.
LEV-25:20 And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh
year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:
LEV-25:21 Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth
year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.
LEV-25:22 And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat [yet] of old
fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come in ye shall
eat [of] the old [store].
LEV-25:23 The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land [is]
mine; for ye [are] strangers and sojourners with me.
LEV-25:24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant
a redemption for the land.
LEV-25:25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away
[some] of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem
it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.
LEV-25:26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be
able to redeem it;
LEV-25:27 Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and
restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he
may return unto his possession.
LEV-25:28 But if he be not able to restore [it] to him, then
that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath
bought it until the year of jubilee: and in the jubilee it shall
go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
LEV-25:29 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city,
then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold;
[within] a full year may he redeem it.
LEV-25:30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full
year, then the house that [is] in the walled city shall be
established for ever to him that bought it throughout his
generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee.
LEV-25:31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall
round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country:
they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
LEV-25:32 Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, [and] the
houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem
at any time.
LEV-25:33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house
that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in
[the year of] jubilee: for the houses of the cities of the
Levites [are] their possession among the children of Israel.
LEV-25:34 But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not
be sold; for it [is] their perpetual possession.
LEV-25:35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay
with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: [yea, though he be] a
stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.
LEV-25:36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy
God; that thy brother may live with thee.
LEV-25:37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend
him thy victuals for increase.
LEV-25:38 I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you forth out
of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, [and] to
be your God.
LEV-25:39 And if thy brother [that dwelleth] by thee be waxen
poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve
as a bondservant:
LEV-25:40 [But] as an hired servant, [and] as a sojourner, he
shall be with thee, [and] shall serve thee unto the year of
jubilee:
LEV-25:41 And [then] shall he depart from thee, [both] he and
his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and
unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
LEV-25:42 For they [are] my servants, which I brought forth out
of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.
LEV-25:43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt
fear thy God.
LEV-25:44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt
have, [shall be] of the heathen that are round about you; of
them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
LEV-25:45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do
sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families
that [are] with you, which they begat in your land: and they
shall be your possession.
