1And the LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai, 2“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I will give you, then the land shall keep a Sabbath unto the LORD. 3Six years you shall sow your field, and prune your vineyard, and gather in its fruit; 4But the seventh year shall be a Sabbath of rest for the land, a Sabbath for the LORD: you shall neither sow your field, nor prune your vineyard. 5You shall not reap what grows of its own accord as your harvest, nor gather the grapes of your unpruned vine: for it is a year of rest for the land. 6But you may eat whatever the land shall yield on its own in its Sabbath year - for you, your servant, your maid, your hired servant, the stranger that sojourns with you, 7As well as for your livestock, and for the wild animals that are in your land – whatever the land produces may be eaten.

8‘And you shall count seven Sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; with the span of the seven Sabbaths of years being forty-nine years. 9Then you shall cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month: on the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. 10And you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants: it shall be a jubilee to you; and you shall return to every man his possession, and his family. 11That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you: you shall not sow, nor reap what grows of itself, nor gather the grapes of your unpruned vine in that year. 12For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy to you: but you may eat its increase out of the field.

13‘In this jubilee year you shall return to every man his possession. 14And if you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy anything from your neighbor, you shall not take advantage of one another: 15According to the number of years after the jubilee you shall buy of your neighbor, and according to the number of years of the fruits he shall sell to you: 16According to the multitude of years you shall increase its price, and according to the fewness of years you shall reduce its price: because it is according to the number of the years of the fruits, that he sells it to you. 17So you must not take advantage of one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am the LORD your God.

18‘Therefore, you shall obey My statutes, and keep My ordinances; and then you shall dwell safely in the land. 19And the land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and live in safety. 20And if you ask, “What shall we eat in the seventh year? Because we may not sow, nor harvest our crops:” 21Be assured that I will send My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall yield enough for three years. 22And you shall sow in the eighth year, and still eat of the old crop until the ninth year. Until its crops come in, you shall eat of the old store.

23‘The land must not be sold permanently: for the land is Mine; for you are strangers and sojourners in My land. 24And in all the land you hold in your possession, you shall provide for the redemption of the land. 25If your fellow Israelite has become poor, and has sold some of his possession, and if a close relative comes to redeem it, then he shall redeem what his relative sold. 26And if the man has no one to redeem it, and he, himself, is able to redeem it; 27Then let him count the years of its sale, and restore the overpayment to the man to whom he sold it; so that he may return to his possession. 28But if he is not able to buy it back, then what was sold shall remain in the hand of the one that has bought it until the year of jubilee: and in the jubilee year it shall go out, and return to his possession. 29And if a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold. 30And if it is not redeemed within the span of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established forever to the one that bought it throughout all his generations: it shall not go out (return) in the jubilee year. 31But the houses of the unwalled villages shall be treated like the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out (return) in the jubilee. 32However, the Levites have the right to redeem their houses in the cities of their possession at any time. 33And if a man purchased a house from one of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out (return) in the year of jubilee: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the Israelites. 34But the field of the pasture lands of their cities may not be sold; it is their perpetual possession. 35And if your fellow Israelite has become poor, and cannot support himself among you; then you shall help him as though he is a stranger, a sojourner; that he may continue to live among you. 36Take no interest from him, or profit, but fear your God; that your brother may live among you. 37You shall not lend him your money on interest, nor lend him your food supplies for profit. 38I 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‘And if your fellow Israelite who dwells by you has become poor, and is sold to you; you shall not compel him to serve as a slave; 40But as a hired servant, or as a sojourner, he shall be with you, and shall serve you until the year of jubilee: 41And then he shall depart from you, both he and his children, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers. 42For they are My servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as slaves. 43You shall not rule over him with rigor; but shall fear your God. 44Both your male and female slaves that you may have, shall be from the nations that are around you; of them shall you buy slaves. 45You may also buy the children of the strangers that sojourn among you, those you may buy, of their families that are with you, which were born in your land: and they shall be your possession. 46And you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your slaves forever; but over your fellow Israelites, you shall not rule one over another with rigor.

47‘And if a sojourner or stranger living among you becomes rich, and your fellow Israelite that dwells by him becomes poor, and sells himself to that stranger or sojourner, or to a member of that foreigner's family: 48After he is sold, he may be redeemed again - one of his fellow Israelites may redeem him: 49Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or anyone that is a near relative of his family may redeem him; or if he is able, he may redeem himself. 50And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him to the year of jubilee: and the price of his sale shall be based upon the number of years, based upon the rate of a hired servant. 51If many years yet remain, according to them he shall repay the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for. 52But if there remains but few years until the year of jubilee, then he shall count with him, and according to his years, he shall repay him the price of his redemption. 53As if he was a yearly hired servant, he shall be with him: and the other shall not rule over him harshly. 54And if he is not redeemed in any of these years, then he shall go out (return) in the year of jubilee, both he, and his children with him. 55For unto Me the Israelites are servants that I brought out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
