Leviticus 25:1-7

¹And Jehovah spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

²Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I will give you, the land shall celebrate a sabbath to Jehovah.

³Six years shalt thou sow thy field, and six years shalt thou prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof,

⁴but in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest for the land, a sabbath to Jehovah. Thy field shalt thou not sow, and thy vineyard shalt thou not prune.

⁵That which springeth up from the scattered seed of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thine undressed vines thou shalt not gather: a year of rest shall it be for the land.

⁶And the sabbath of the land shall be for food for you, for thee, and for thy bondman, and for thy handmaid, and for thy hired servant, and for him that dwelleth as a sojourner with thee, and for thy cattle,

⁷and for the beasts that are in thy land: all the produce thereof shall be for food.
