25THE LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai,H3068H1696H4872H2022H5514H559 2Say to the Israelites, When you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath to the Lord.H1696H1121H3478H559H935H776H5414H776H7673H7676H3068 3For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its fruits.H8337H8141H2232H7704H8337H8141H2168H3754H622H8393 4But in the seventh year there shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath to the Lord; you shall neither sow your field nor prune your vineyard.H7637H8141H7676H7677H776H7676H3068H2232H7704H2168H3754 5What grows of itself in your harvest you shall not reap and the grapes on your uncultivated vine you shall not gather, for it is a year of rest to the land.H5599H7105H7114H1219H6025H5139H8141H7677H776 6And the sabbath rest of the [untilled] land shall [in its increase] furnish food for you, for your male and female slaves, your hired servant, and the temporary resident who lives with you,H7676H776H402H5650H519H7916H8453H1481 7For your domestic animals also and for the [wild] beasts in your land; all its yield shall be for food.H929H2416H776H8393H398 8And you shall number seven sabbaths {or} weeks of years for you, seven times seven years, so the total time of the seven weeks of years shall be forty-nine years.H5608H7651H7676H8141H7651H6471H7651H8141H3117H7651H7676H8141H705H8672H8141 9Then you shall sound abroad the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month [almost October]; on the Day of Atonement blow the trumpet in all your land.H7782H8643H5674H6218H7637H2320H3117H3725H7782H5674H776 10And you shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his ancestral possession [which through poverty he was compelled to sell], and each of you shall return to his family [from whom he was separated in bond service].H6942H2572H8141H8141H7121H1865H776H3427H3104H7725H376H272H7725H376H4940 11That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it you shall not sow, or reap and store what grows of itself, or gather the grapes of the uncultivated vines.H3104H2572H8141H8141H2232H7114H5599H1219H5139 12For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you; you shall eat the [sufficient] increase of it out of the field.H3104H6944H398H8393H7704 13In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his ancestral property.H8141H3104H7725H376H272 14And if you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.H4376H4465H5997H7069H5997H3027H3238H376H251 15According to the number of years after the Jubilee, you shall buy from your neighbor. And he shall sell to you according to the number of years [remaining in which you may gather] the crops [before you must restore the property to him].H4557H8141H310H3104H7069H5997H4557H8141H8393H4376 16If the years [to the next Jubilee] are many, you may increase the price, and if the years remaining are few, you shall diminish the price, for the number of the crops is what he is selling to you.H6310H7230H8141H7235H4736H6310H4591H8141H4591H4736H4557H8393H4376 17You shall not oppress {and} wrong one another, but you shall [reverently] fear your God. For I am the Lord your God.H3238H376H5997H3372H430H3068H430 18Therefore you shall do {and} give effect to My statutes and keep My ordinances and perform them, and you will dwell in the land in safety.H6213H2708H8104H4941H6213H3427H776H983 19The land shall yield its fruit; you shall eat your fill and dwell there in safety.H776H5414H6529H398H7648H3427H983 20And if you say, What shall we eat in the seventh year if we are not to sow or gather in our increase?H559H398H7637H8141H2232H622H8393 21Then [this is My answer:] I will command My [special] blessings on you in the sixth year, so that it shall bring forth [sufficient] fruit for three years.H6680H1293H8345H8141H6213H8393H7969H8141 22And you shall sow in the eighth year, but eat of the old store of produce; until the crops of the ninth year come in you shall eat of the old supply.H2232H8066H8141H398H3465H8393H8671H8141H8393H935H398H3465 23The land shall not be sold into perpetual ownership, for the land is Mine; you are [only] strangers and temporary residents with Me.H776H4376H6783H776H1616H8453 24And in all the country you possess you shall grant a redemption for the land [in the Year of Jubilee].H776H272H5414H1353H776 25If your brother has become poor and has sold some of his property, if any of his kin comes to redeem it, he shall [be allowed to] redeem what his brother has sold.H251H4134H4376H272H7138H935H1350H1350H251H4465 26And if the man has no one to redeem his property, and he himself has become more prosperous {and} has enough to redeem it,H376H1350H3027H1767H5381H4672H1353 27Then let him count the years since he sold it and restore the overpayment to the man to whom he sold it, and return to his ancestral possession.H2803H8141H4465H7725H5736H376H4376H7725H272 28But if he is unable to redeem it, it shall remain in the buyer's possession until the Year of Jubilee, when it shall be set free and he may return to it.H3027H1767H4672H7725H4465H3027H7069H8141H3104H3104H3318H7725H272 29If a man sells a dwelling house in a fortified city, he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; for a full year he may have the right of redemption.H376H4376H4186H1004H2346H5892H1353H8552H8141H4465H3117H1353 30And if it is not redeemed within a full year, then the house that is in the fortified city shall be made sure, permanently {and} without limitations, for him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not go free in the Year of Jubilee.H1350H4390H8549H8141H1004H2346H5892H6965H6783H7069H1755H3318H3104 31But the houses of the unwalled villages shall be counted with the fields of the country. They may be redeemed, and they shall go free in the Year of Jubilee.H1004H2691H2346H5439H2803H7704H776H1353H3318H3104 32Nevertheless, the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites may redeem at any time.H5892H3881H1004H5892H272H3881H1353H5769 33But if a house is not redeemed by a Levite, the sold house in the city they possess shall go free in the Year of Jubilee, for the houses in the Levite cities are their ancestral possession among the Israelites.H1350H3881H1004H4465H5892H272H3318H3104H1004H5892H3881H272H8432H1121H3478 34But the field of unenclosed {or} pasture lands of their cities may not be sold; it is their perpetual possession.H7704H4054H5892H4376H5769H272 35And if your [Israelite] brother has become poor and his hand wavers [from poverty, sickness, or age and he is unable to support himself], then you shall uphold (strengthen, relieve) him, [treating him with the courtesy and consideration that you would] a stranger or a temporary resident with you [without property], so that he may live [along] with you.H251H4134H4131H3027H2388H1616H8453H2416 36Charge him no interest or [portion of] increase, but fear your God, so your brother may [continue to] live along with you.H3947H5392H8636H3372H430H251H2416 37You shall not give him your money at interest nor lend him food at a profit.H5414H3701H5392H5414H400H4768 38I am the Lord your God, Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.H3068H430H3318H776H4714H5414H776H3667H430 39And if your brother becomes poor beside you and sells himself to you, you shall not compel him to serve as a bondman (a slave not eligible for redemption),H251H4134H4376H5647H5656H5650 40But as a hired servant and as a temporary resident he shall be with you; he shall serve you till the Year of Jubilee,H7916H8453H5647H8141H3104 41And then he shall depart from you, he and his children with him, and shall go back to his own family and return to the possession of his fathers.H3318H1121H7725H4940H272H1H7725 42For the Israelites are My servants; I brought them out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as bondmen.H5650H3318H776H4714H4376H4466H5650 43You shall not rule over him with harshness (severity, oppression), but you shall [reverently] fear your God.H7287H6531H3372H430 44As for your bondmen and your bondmaids whom you may have, they shall be from the nations round about you, of whom you may buy bondmen and bondmaids.H5650H519H1471H5439H7069H5650H519 45Moreover, of the children of the strangers who sojourn among you, of them you may buy and of their families that are with you which they have begotten in your land, and they shall be your possession.H1121H8453H1481H7069H4940H3205H776H272 46And you shall make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession; of them shall you take your bondmen always, but over your brethren the Israelites you shall not rule one over another with harshness (severity, oppression).H5157H1121H310H3423H272H5647H5769H251H1121H3478H7287H376H251H6531 47And if a sojourner or stranger with you becomes rich and your [Israelite] brother becomes poor beside him and sells himself to the stranger or sojourner with you or to a member of the stranger's family,H1616H8453H5381H3027H251H4134H4376H1616H8453H6133H1616H4940 48After he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brethren may redeem him:H310H4376H1353H259H251H1350 49Either his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or a near kinsman may redeem him; or if he has enough {and} is able, he may redeem himself.H1730H1730H1121H1350H7607H1320H4940H1350H5381H1350H3027 50And [the redeemer] shall reckon with the purchaser of the servant from the year when he sold himself to the purchaser to the Year of Jubilee, and the price of his release shall be adjusted according to the number of years. The time he was with his owner shall be counted as that of a hired servant.H2803H7069H8141H4376H8141H3104H3701H4465H4557H8141H3117H7916 51If there remain many years [before the Year of Jubilee], in proportion to them he must refund [to the purchaser] for his release [the overpayment] for his acquisition.H7227H8141H6310H7725H1353H3701H4736 52And if little time remains until the Year of Jubilee, he shall count it over with him and he shall refund the proportionate amount for his release.H7604H4592H8141H8141H3104H2803H6310H8141H7725H1353 53And as a servant hired year by year shall he deal with him; he shall not rule over him with harshness (severity, oppression) in your sight [make sure of that].H8141H8141H7916H7287H6531H5869 54And if he is not redeemed during these years {and} by these means, then he shall go free in the Year of Jubilee, he and his children with him.H1350H3318H8141H3104H1121 55For to Me the Israelites are servants, My servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.H1121H3478H5650H5650H3318H776H4714H3068H430
