Leviticus 25:11-27 in English

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 the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbor, or buy of thy neighbor’s hand, ye shall not wrong one another.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee thou shalt buy of thy neighbor, and according unto the number of years of the crops he shall sell unto thee.

¹⁶ According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price of it; for the number of the crops doth he sell unto thee.

¹⁷ And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am Jehovah your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase;

²¹ then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for the three years.

²² And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until its fruits come in, ye shall eat the old store.

²³ And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ If thy brother be waxed poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman that is next unto him come, and shall redeem that which his brother hath sold.

²⁶ And if a man have no one to redeem it, and he be waxed rich and find sufficient to redeem it;

²⁷ then let him reckon the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return unto his possession.

¹¹ This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fiftieth year: ye shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall ye gather its dedicated fruits.

¹² For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, ye shall eat its fruits off the fields.

¹³ In the year of the release even the jubilee of it, shall each one return to his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou shouldest sell a possession to thy neighbour, or if thou shouldest buy of thy neighbour, let not a man oppress his neighbour.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee shalt thou buy of thy neighbour, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to thee.

¹⁶ According as there may be a greater number of years he shall increase the value of his possession, and according as there may be a less number of years he shall lessen the value of his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to thee.

¹⁷ Let not a man oppress his neighbour, and thou shalt fear the Lord thy God: I am the Lord thy God.

¹⁸ And ye shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments; and do ye observe them, and ye shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her increase, and ye shall eat to fulness, and shall dwell securely in it.

²⁰ And if ye should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

²¹ Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

²² And ye shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, ye shall eat old fruits of the old.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because ye are strangers and sojourners before me.

²⁴ And in every land of your possession, ye shall allow ransoms for the land.

²⁵ And if thy brother who is with thee be poor, and should have sold part of his possession, and his kinsman who is nigh to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

²⁶ And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, even his ransom;

²⁷ then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

¹¹ A jubile 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.

¹² For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:

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.

¹⁷ Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the LORD your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

²¹ Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

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.

²³ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

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.

²⁶ And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

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.

¹¹ A jubile 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.

¹² For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:

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.

¹⁷ Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the LORD your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

²¹ Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

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.

²³ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

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.

²⁶ And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

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.

¹¹ This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fifties year: you° shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall you° gather its dedicated fruits.

¹² For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, you° shall eat its fruits off the fields.

¹³ In the year of the release even the jubilee of it, shall each one return to his possession.

¹⁴ And if you should sell a possession to your neighbor, or if you should buy of your neighbor, let not a man oppress his neighbor.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee shall you buy of your neighbor, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to you.

¹⁶ According as there may be a greater number of years he shall increase the value of his possession, and according as there may be a less number of years he shall lessen the value of his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to you.

¹⁷ Let not a man oppress his neighbor, and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ And you° shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments; and do you° observe them, and you° shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her increase, and you° shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.

²⁰ And if you° should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

²¹ Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

²² And you° shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, you° shall eat old fruits of the old.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because you° are strangers and sojourners before me.

²⁴ And in every land of your possession, you° shall allow ransoms for the land.

²⁵ And if your brother who is with you be poor, and should have sold part of his possession, and his kinsman who is near to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

²⁶ And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, even his ransom;

²⁷ then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

¹¹ A jubile 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 the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In this year of jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbour, or buy of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not wrong one another:

¹⁵ according to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the crops he shall sell unto thee.

¹⁶ According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price of it; for the number of the crops doth he sell unto thee.

¹⁷ And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the LORD your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

²¹ then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for the three years.

²² And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until her fruits come in, ye shall eat the old store.

²³ And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ If thy brother be waxen poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman that is next unto him come, and shall redeem that which his brother hath sold.

²⁶ And if a man have no one to redeem it, and he be waxen rich and find sufficient to redeem it;

²⁷ then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return unto his possession.

¹¹ That year will be a Year of Celebration; during that year do not plant anything, and do not harvest in the usual way the grain/wheat that grows without having been planted, or the grapes that grow without the vines being pruned.

¹² It will be a Year of Celebration, so eat only what grows in the fields ◄by itself/without any work being done to produce anything►.

¹³ In that Year of Celebration, everyone must return to their own property.

¹⁴ If you sell some of your land to a fellow Israeli or if you buy some land from one of them, you must treat that person fairly:

¹⁵ If you buy land, the price that you will pay will depend on the number of years there will be until the next Year of Celebration. If someone sells land to you, he will charge a price that is determined by the number of years until the next Year of Celebration.

¹⁶ If there will be many years before the next Year of Celebration, the price will be higher; if there will be only a few years until the next Year of Celebration, the price will be lower. You could say that what he is really selling you is the number of crops which you can harvest before the next Year of Celebration.

¹⁷ Do not cheat each other; instead, revere me. I, Yahweh your God, am the one who am commanding this.

¹⁸ Obey all my laws DOU carefully. If you do that, you will continue to live safely in your country DOU.

¹⁹ And crops will grow well on the land, and you will have plenty to eat.

²⁰ But you may ask, ‘If we do not plant or harvest our crops during the seventh year, what will we have to eat?’

²¹ My answer is that I will bless you very much during the sixth/previous year, with the result that during that year there will be enough crops to provide food for you for three years!

²² Then, after you plant seed during the eighth/next year and wait for the crops to grow, you will eat the food grown in the sixth year, and continue to eat it until more food is harvested in the ninth year!

²³ You must not sell any of your land to belong to someone else permanently, because the land is not yours; it is really mine, and you are only living on it temporarily and ◄farming/taking care of► it for me.

²⁴ Throughout the land that you will possess, you must remember that if someone sells some of his land to you, he is permitted to buy it back from you if he wants to.

²⁵ So, if one of your fellow Israelis becomes poor and sells some of his property to obtain some money, the person who is most closely related to him is permitted to come and buy that land for him.

²⁶ However, if a man has no one to buy the land for him, and he himself prospers again and saves enough money to buy that land back,

²⁷ he must calculate how many years there will be until the next Year of Celebration. Then he must pay to the man who bought the land the money that he would have earned by continuing to grow crops on that land for those years.

¹¹ This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fifties year: you° shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall you° gather its dedicated fruits.

¹² For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, you° shall eat its fruits off the fields.

¹³ In the year of the release even the jubilee of it, shall each one return to his possession.

¹⁴ And if you should sell a possession to your neighbour, or if you should buy of your neighbour, let not a man oppress his neighbour.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee shall you buy of your neighbour, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to you.

¹⁶ According as there may be a greater number of years he shall increase the value of his possession, and according as there may be a less number of years he shall lessen the value of his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to you.

¹⁷ Let not a man oppress his neighbour, and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ And you° shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgements; and do you° observe them, and you° shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her increase, and you° shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.

²⁰ And if you° should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

²¹ Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

²² And you° shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, you° shall eat old fruits of the old.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because you° are strangers and sojourners before me.

²⁴ And in every land of your possession, you° shall allow ransoms for the land.

²⁵ And if your brother who is with you be poor, and should have sold part of his possession, and his kinsman who is near to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

²⁶ And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, even his ransom;

²⁷ then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

¹¹ That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.

¹³ “‘In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his property.

¹⁴ “‘If you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor. According to the number of years of the crops he shall sell to you.

¹⁶ According to the length of the years you shall increase its price, and according to the shortness of the years you shall diminish its price; for he is selling the number of the crops to you.

¹⁷ You shall not wrong one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am Yahweh your God.

¹⁸ “‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my ordinances and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ The land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ If you said, “What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase;”

²¹ then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bear fruit for the three years.

²² You shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits from the old store until the ninth year. Until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old store.

²³ “‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.

²⁴ In all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ “‘If your brother becomes poor, and sells some of his possessions, then his kinsman who is next to him shall come, and redeem that which his brother has sold.

²⁶ If a man has no one to redeem it, and he becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it,

²⁷ then let him reckon the years since its sale, and restore the surplus to the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return to his property.

¹¹ That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.

¹³ “‘In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his property.

¹¹ Let this fiftieth year be the Jubilee: no seed may be planted, and that which comes to growth of itself may not be cut, and the grapes may not be taken from the uncared-for vines.

¹² For it is the Jubilee, and it is holy to you; your food will be the natural increase of the field.

¹³ In this year of Jubilee, let every man go back to his heritage.

¹⁴ And in the business of trading goods for money, do no wrong to one another.

¹⁵ Let your exchange of goods with your neighbours have relation to the number of years after the year of Jubilee, and the number of times the earth has given her produce.

¹⁶ If the number of years is great, the price will be increased, and if the number of years is small, the price will be less, for it is the produce of a certain number of years which the man is giving you.

¹⁷ And do no wrong, one to another, but let the fear of your God be before you; for I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ So keep my rules and my decisions and do them, and you will be safe in your land.

¹⁹ And the land will give her fruit, and you will have food in full measure and be safe in the land.

²⁰ And if you say, Where will our food come from in the seventh year, when we may not put in seed, or get in the increase

²¹ Then I will send my blessing on you in the sixth year, and the land will give fruit enough for three years.

²² And in the eighth year you will put in your seed, and get your food from the old stores, till the fruit of the ninth year is ready.

²³ No exchange of land may be for ever, for the land is mine, and you are as my guests, living with me for a time.

²⁴ Wherever there is property in land, the owner is to have the right of getting it back.

²⁵ If your brother becomes poor, and has to give up some of his land for money, his nearest relation may come and get back that which his brother has given up.

²⁶ And if he has no one to get it back for him, and later he himself gets wealth and has enough money to get it back;

²⁷ Then let him take into account the years from the time when he gave it up, and make up the loss for the rest of the years to him who took it, and so get back his property.

¹¹ a year of jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap its aftergrowth, nor gather the fruit of its undressed vines.

¹² For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; out of the field shall ye eat its produce.

¹³ In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another.

¹⁵ According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of the produce, he shall sell unto thee.

¹⁶ According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the number of crops that he selleth unto thee.

¹⁷ And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.

¹⁸ And ye shall do my statutes, and observe mine ordinances and do them: thus shall ye dwell in your land securely.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat and be satisfied, and dwell therein securely.

²⁰ And if ye say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our produce;

²¹ then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, that it may bring forth produce for three years;

²² and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat of the old fruit until the ninth year; until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ If thy brother grow poor, and sell of his possession, then shall his redeemer, his nearest relation, come and redeem that which his brother sold.

²⁶ And if the man have no one having right of redemption, and his hand have acquired and found what sufficeth for its redemption,

²⁷ then shall he reckon the years since the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so return unto his possession.

¹¹ Because it is the jubilee and the fiftieth year. You shall not sow, nor reap the things that grow in the field of their own accord, neither shall you gather the firstfruits of the vines,

¹² Because of the sanctification of the jubilee: but as they grow you shall presently eat them.

¹³ In the year of the jubilee all shall return to their possessions.

¹⁴ When thou shalt sell any thing to thy neighbour, or shalt buy of him; grieve not thy brother: but thou shalt buy of him according to the number of years from the jubilee.

¹⁵ And he shall sell to thee according to the computation of the fruits.

¹⁶ The more years remain after the jubilee, the more shall the price increase: and the less time is counted, so much the less shall the purchase cost. For he shall sell to thee the time of the fruits.

¹⁷ Do not afflict your countrymen, but let every one fear his God: because I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ Do my precepts, and keep my judgments, and fulfill them: that you may dwell in the land without any fear,

¹⁹ And the ground may yield you its fruits, of which you may eat your fill, fearing no mall’s invasion.

²⁰ But if you say: What shall we eat the seventh year, if we sow not, nor gather our fruits?

²¹ I will give you my blessing the sixth year, and it shall yield the fruits of three years:

²² And the eighth year you shall sow, and shall eat of the old fruits, until the ninth year: till new grow up, you shall eat the old store.

²³ The land also shall not be sold for ever: because it is mine, and you are strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ For which cause all the country of your possession shall be under the condition of redemption.

²⁵ If thy brother being impoverished sell his little possession, and his kinsman will, he may redeem what he had sold.

²⁶ But if he have no kinsman, and he himself can find the price to redeem it:

²⁷ The value of the fruits shall be counted from that time when he sold it: and the overplus he shall restore to the buyer, and so shall receive his possession again.

¹¹ The fiftieth year will be a Jubilee for you. Don't sow the land; don't harvest what may have grown up in your fields, or collect the grapes from your vineyards that you haven't cared for.

¹² It is a Jubilee and it is to be holy to you. You can eat whatever the land produces.

¹³ In this Jubilee Year, every one of you shall return to your own property.

¹⁴ If you sell land to your neighbor, or buy land from him, don't exploit one another.

¹⁵ When you buy from your neighbor work out how many years have passed since the last Jubilee, for he is to sell to you depending on how many years of harvest remain.

¹⁶ The more years that are left, the more you shall pay; the fewer years that are left, the less you shall pay, because he is actually selling you a specific number of harvests.

¹⁷ Don't exploit one another, but have respect for your God, because I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ Keep my rules and observe my regulations, so you can live in safety in the land.

¹⁹ Then the land will produce good harvest, so you will have plenty to eat and live in safety there.

²⁰ But if you ask, ‘What are we going to in the seventh year if we do not sow or harvest our crops?’

²¹ I will bless you in the sixth year, so that the land will produce a crop that will be enough for three years.

²² As you sow in the eighth year, you will still be eating from that harvest, which will last until your harvest in the ninth year.

²³ Land must not be permanently sold, because it really belongs to me. To me you are only foreigners and travelers passing through.

²⁴ So whatever land you buy to own, you must make arrangements so it can be returned to its original owner.

²⁵ If one of your people becomes poor and sells you some of their land, their close family can come and buy back what they have sold.

²⁶ However, if they don't have anyone who can buy it back, but in the meantime their financial situation improves and they have enough to buy back the land,

²⁷ they will work how many years it has been since the sale, and pay back the balance to the person who bought it, and go back to their property

¹¹ This fiftieth yeere shalbe a yeere of Iubile vnto you: ye shall not sowe, neither reape that which groweth of it selfe, neither gather the grapes thereof, that are left vnlaboured.

¹² For it is the Iubile, it shall be holy vnto you: ye shall eate of the encrease thereof out of the fielde.

¹³ In the yeere of this Iubile, ye shall returne euery man vnto his possession.

¹⁴ And when thou sellest ought to thy neighbour, or byest at thy neighbours hande, ye shall not oppresse one another:

¹⁵ But according to the nomber of yeeres after the Iubile thou shalt bye of thy neighbour: also according to the nomber of the yeeres of the reuenues, he shall sell vnto thee.

¹⁶ According to the multitude of yeeres, thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewnesse of yeeres, thou shalt abate the price of it: for the nomber of fruites doeth he sell vnto thee.

¹⁷ Oppresse not ye therefore any man his neighbour, but thou shalt feare thy God: for I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall obey mine ordinances, and keepe my lawes, and do them, and ye shall dwell in the land in safetie.

¹⁹ And the lande shall giue her fruite, and ye shall eate your fill, and dwell therein in safetie.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eate the seuenth yeere, for we shall not sowe, nor gather in our increase?

²¹ I will sende my blessing vpon you in the sixt yeere, and it shall bring foorth fruite for three yeeres.

²² And ye shall sowe the eight yeere, and eate of the olde fruite vntill the ninth yeere: vntill the fruite thereof come, ye shall eate the olde.

²³ Also the lande shall not be solde to be cut off from the familie: for the land is mine, and ye be but strangers and soiourners with me.

²⁴ Therefore in all the land of your possession ye shall graunt a redemption for the lande.

²⁵ If thy brother be impouerished, and sell his possession, then his redeemer shall come, euen his neere kinsman, and bye out that which his brother solde.

²⁶ And if he haue no redeemer, but hath gotten and founde to bye it out,

²⁷ Then shall he count the yeeres of his sale, and restore the ouerplus to the man, to whome he solde it: so shall he returne to his possession.

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 the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbour, or buy of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not wrong one another.

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 crops he shall sell unto thee.

¹⁶ According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price of it; for the number of crops doth he sell unto thee.

¹⁷ And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the LORD your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat until ye have enough, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say: 'What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our increase';

²¹ then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth produce for the three years.

²² And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the produce, the old store; until the ninth year, until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old store.

²³ And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is Mine; for ye are strangers and settlers with Me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ If thy brother be waxen poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman that is next unto him come, and shall redeem that which his brother hath sold.

²⁶ And if a man have no one to redeem it, and he be waxen rich and find sufficient means to redeem it;

²⁷ then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return unto his possession.

¹¹ A jubile 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.

¹² For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

¹³ In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

¹⁵ according to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:

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.

¹⁷ Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

²¹ then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

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.

²³ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye were strangers and sojourners with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

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.

²⁶ And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

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.

¹¹ A jubilee shall this, the fiftieth year, be unto you: ye shall not sow, nor reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather in it the fruit of the undressed vines.

¹² For it is the jubilee; holy shall it be unto you: from the field shall ye eat the products thereof.

¹³ In this year of the jubilee shall ye return, every man, unto his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbor, or buy aught of thy neighbor's hand, ye shall not overreach one the other;

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee shalt thou buy of thy neighbor, according unto the number of harvest-years shall he sell unto thee;

¹⁶ According to the multitude of years shalt thou increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of years shalt thou diminish the price thereof; for a number of harvests doth he sell unto thee.

¹⁷ And ye shall not overreach one the other; but thou shalt be afraid of thy God; for I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ And ye shall do my statutes, and my ordinances shall ye keep and do them; and then shall ye dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell in safety therein.

²⁰ And if ye should say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we are not permitted to sow, and we cannot gather in our harvest:

²¹ Then will I command my blessing unto you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth a harvest for three years.

²² And when ye sow in the eighth year, then shall ye eat yet of the old harvest; until the ninth year, until its harvest come in, shall ye eat of the old store.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for a permanence to the purchaser; for the land is mine; for strangers and sojourners are ye with me.

²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

²⁵ If thy brother become poor, and sell away some of his possession: then may his nearest of kin come and redeem what his brother hath sold.

²⁶ And if the man have none to redeem it, and he acquire the means, sufficient to be able to redeem it himself:

²⁷ Then let him reckon the years since his sale, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so shall he return unto his possession.

¹¹ This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fiftieth year: ye shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall ye gather its dedicated fruits.

¹² For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, ye shall eat its fruits off the fields.

¹³ In the year of the release even the jubilee of it, shall each one return to his possession.

¹⁴ And if thou shouldest sell a possession to thy neighbor, or if thou shouldest buy of thy neighbor, let not a man oppress his neighbor.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubilee shalt thou buy of thy neighbor, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to thee.

¹⁶ According as there may be a greater number of years he shall increase the value of his possession, and according as there may be a less number of years he shall lessen the value of his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to thee.

¹⁷ Let not a man oppress his neighbor, and thou shalt fear the Lord thy God: I am the Lord thy God.

¹⁸ And ye shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments; and do ye observe them, and ye shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her increase, and ye shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.

²⁰ And if ye should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

²¹ Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

²² And ye shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, ye shall eat old fruits of the old.

²³ And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because ye are strangers and sojourners before me.

²⁴ And in every land of your possession, ye shall allow ransoms for the land.

²⁵ And if thy brother who is with thee be poor, and should have sold part of his possession, and his kinsman who is nigh to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

²⁶ And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, even his ransom;

²⁷ then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

¹¹ A jubilee shall that year of fifty years be to you. Ye shall not sow nor reap the after crop, nor make vintage of the remainder,

¹² for it is a jubilee; it shall be sacred to you; of the growth of the field you may eat.

¹³ In the year of this jubilee a man shall return to his inheritance.

¹⁴ And when thou sellest a sale to thy neighbour, or buyest of thy neighbour’s hand, you shall not impose, a man upon his brother.

¹⁵ For the number of the years after the (last) jubilee thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; for the number of the years of the produce he shall sell to thee:

¹⁶ According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price; for he selleth thee the amount of the fruits.

¹⁷ And you shall not impose, a man upon his neighbour; but thou shalt fear thy God, for I am the Lord your God.

¹⁸ And you shall perform My statutes, and keep My judgments, and do them, and dwell in the land in security.

¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruitage, and you shall eat unto the full, and dwell upon it in security.

²⁰ And if you say, What shall we eat in the seventh year; behold, we are not to sow, nor to gather in our fruit?

²¹ I will command My benediction upon you in the sixth year, and it shall produce for three years.

²² And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat of the old produce unto the ninth year: until the fruit come in, you shall eat of the old.

²³ But you may not sell the ground absolutely: for the land is Mine, for you are guests and sojourners before Me;

²⁴ And in all the land of your inheritance you shall let the ground have redemption.

²⁵ When thy brother hath become poor, and shall have sold his possession, his redeemer who is of kin to him may come and release that which his kinsman has sold.

²⁶ And if he have no one to release it, and it pertaineth to his hand to find sufficient means for its redemption;

²⁷ Then let him reckon the years of its sale, and restore the full amount to the man who bought it, that he may return to his possession.

¹¹ That fiftieth year shall be a Jubilee to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a Jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.

¹³ “‘In this Jubilee Year ·Shofar Year· each of you shall teshuvah ·completely return· to his property. (LY:2)

¹⁴ “‘If you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.

¹⁵ According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor. According to the number of years of the crops he shall sell to you.

¹⁶ According to the length of the years you shall increase its price, and according to the shortness of the years you shall diminish its price; for he is selling the number of the crops to you.

¹⁷ You shall not wrong one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am Adonai your God.

¹⁸ “‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety. (RY:2, LY:3)

¹⁹ The land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰ If you said, “What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase;”

²¹ then I will enjoin my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bear fruit for the three years.

²² You shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old store.

²³ “‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.

²⁴ In all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land. (LY:4)

²⁵ “‘If your brother becomes poor, and sells some of his possessions, then his kinsman who is next to him shall come, and redeem that which his brother has sold.

²⁶ If a man has no one to redeem it, and he becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it;

²⁷ then let him reckon the years since its sale, and restore the surplus to the man to whom he sold it; and he shall teshuvah ·completely return· to his property.

¹¹ The fiftieth year will be a Jubilee for you. You must not plant or conduct an organized harvest. Eat whatever grows by itself, and gather the grapes that grow on the unpruned vines.

¹² For it is a Jubilee, which will be holy for you. You must eat the produce that grows by itself out of the fields.

¹³ You must return everyone to his own property in this year of Jubilee.

¹⁴ If you sell any land to your neighbor or buy any land from your neighbor, you must not cheat or wrong each other.

¹⁵ If you buy land from your neighbor, consider the number of years and crops that can be harvested until the next Jubilee. Your neighbor selling the land must consider that also.

¹⁶ A larger number of years until the next Jubilee will increase the value of land, and a smaller number of years until the next Jubilee will decrease the value, because the number of harvests the land will produce for the new owner is related to the number of years before the next Jubilee.

¹⁷ You must not cheat or wrong one another; instead, you must honor your God, for I am Yahweh your God.

¹⁸ Therefore you must obey my decrees, keep my laws, and carry them out. Then you will live in the land in safety.

¹⁹ The land will yield its produce, and you will eat your fill and live there in safety.

²⁰ You might say, “What will we eat during the seventh year? Look, we cannot plant or gather our produce.”

²¹ I will command my blessing to come upon you in the sixth year, and it will produce harvest enough for three years.

²² You will plant in the eighth year and continue to eat from the previous years' produce and the stored food. Until the harvest of the ninth year comes in, you will be able to eat from the provisions stored in the previous years.

²³ The land must not be sold to a new permanent owner, because the land is mine. You are all foreigners and temporary residents on my land.

²⁴ You must observe the right of redemption for all the land that you acquire; you must allow the land to be bought back by the family from whom you bought it.

²⁵ If your fellow Israelite became poor and for that reason sold some of his property, then his nearest relative may come and buy back the property that he sold to you.

²⁶ If a man has no relative to redeem his property, but if he has prospered and has the ability to redeem it,

²⁷ then he may calculate the years since the land was sold and repay the balance to the man to whom he sold it. Then he may return to his own property.

¹¹ That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed vines.

¹² For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.

¹⁷ Do not ye torment men of your lineages, but each man dread his God; for I am your Lord God. (Do not ye torment anyone in your tribes, but each person fear his God; for I am the Lord your God.)

¹⁸ Do ye my behests, and keep ye my dooms, and fulfill ye those, that ye may dwell in (t)his land without any dread, (Do ye my commands, and obey ye my judgements, and fulfill ye them, so that ye shall live in this land without any fear,)

¹⁹ and that the earth bring forth his fruits to you (or and so that the land shall bring forth its harvest for you), which ye shall eat till to fullness, and dread not the assailing of any man.

²⁰ That if ye say (or And if ye say to me), What shall we eat in the seventh year, if we sow not, neither gather (in) our fruits?

²¹ (For an answer), I shall give my blessing to you in the sixth year, and it shall make the fruits of three years;

²² and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat eld fruits till to the ninth year; (yea), till new things come forth, ye shall eat the eld things.

²³ Also the land shall not be sold into without end, for it is mine, and ye be my comelings, and my tenants;

²⁴ wherefore all the country of your possession shall be sold under the condition of again-buying. (and so all the land of your possession shall be sold under the condition of being able to buy it back.)

²⁵ If thy brother is made poor, and selleth his little possession, and his nigh kinsmen will, he may again-buy that that he sold (or he can buy back what he hath sold);

²⁶ soothly if he hath no nigh kinsman, and he may find the price to again-buy, (and if he hath no one near of kin, but he findeth the money to buy it back,)

²⁷ the fruits shall be reckoned from that time in which he sold it, and he shall yield that that is left to the buyer, and he shall receive so his possession again (or and so he shall receive his possession back again).

¹¹ for it is iubilee, and the fiftithe yeer. Ye schulen not sowe, nether ye schulen repe thingis, that comen forth freli in the feeld, and ye schulen not gadere the firste fruytis of vyndage, for the halewyng of iubilee;

¹² but anoon ye schulen ete thingis takun awey;

¹³ in the yeer of iubilee alle men go ayen to her possessiouns.

¹⁴ Whanne thou schalt sille ony thing to thi citeseyn, ether schalt bie of hym, make thou not sory thi brother, but bi the noumbre of `yeeris of iubile thou schalt bie of him,

¹⁵ and bi the rekenyng of fruytis he schal sille to thee.

¹⁶ Bi as myche as mo yeeris dwellen after the iubilee, by so myche also the prijs schal encreesse, and bi as myche as thou noumbrist lesse of tyme, bi so myche and the biyng schal cost lesse; for he schal sille to thee the time of fruytis.

¹⁷ Nyle ye turment men of youre lynagis, but ech man drede his God; for Y am youre Lord God.

¹⁸ Do ye my comaundementis, and kepe ye my domes, and fille ye tho, that ye moun dwelle in his lond without ony drede,

¹⁹ and that the erthe brynge forth hise fruytis to you, whiche ye schulen ete `til to fulnesse, and drede not the assailyng of ony man.

²⁰ That if ye seien, what schulen we ete in the seuenthe yeer, if we sowen not, nether gaderen oure fruytis?

²¹ Y schal yyue my blessyng to you in the sixte yeer, and it schal make fruytis of three yeer;

²² and ye schulen sowe in the eiyte yeer, and ye schulen ete elde fruytis `til to the nynthe yeer; til newe thingis comen forth ye schulen ete the elde thingis.

²³ Also the lond schal not be seeld `in to with outen ende, for it is myn, and ye ben my comelyngis and tenauntis;

²⁴ wherfor al the cuntre of youre possessioun schal be seeld vndur the condicioun of ayenbiyng.

²⁵ If thi brother is maad pore, and sillith his litil possessioun, and his nyy kynesman wole, he may ayenbie that that he seelde;

²⁶ sotheli if he hath no nyy kynesman, and he may fynde prijs to ayenbie,

²⁷ the fruytis schulen be rekynyd fro that tyme in which he seelde, and he schal yelde `that that is residue to the biere, and he schal resseyue so his possessioun.

¹¹ 'A jubilee it is, the fiftieth year, a year it is to you; ye sow not, nor reap its spontaneous growth, nor gather its separated things;

¹² for a jubilee it is, holy it is to you; out of the field ye eat its increase;

¹³ in the year of this jubilee ye turn back each unto his possession.

¹⁴ 'And when thou sellest anything to thy fellow, or buyest from the hand of thy fellow, ye do not oppress one another;

¹⁵ by the number of years after the jubilee thou dost buy from thy fellow; by the number of the years of increase he doth sell to thee;

¹⁶ according to the multitude of the years thou dost multiply its price, and according to the fewness of the years thou dost diminish its price; for a number of increases he is selling to thee;

¹⁷ and ye do not oppress one another, and thou hast been afraid of thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.

¹⁸ 'And ye have done My statutes, and My judgments ye keep, and have done them, and ye have dwelt on the land confidently,

¹⁹ and the land hath given its fruit, and ye have eaten to satiety, and have dwelt confidently on it.

²⁰ 'And when ye say, What do we eat in the seventh year, lo, we do not sow, nor gather our increase?

²¹ then I have commanded My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it hath made the increase for three years;

²² and ye have sown the eighth year, and have eaten of the old increase; until the ninth year, until the coming in of its increase, ye do eat the old.

²³ 'And the land is not sold — to extinction, for the land is Mine, for sojourners and settlers are ye with Me;

²⁴ and in all the land of your possession a redemption ye do give to the land.

²⁵ 'When thy brother becometh poor, and hath sold his possession, then hath his redeemer who is near unto him come, and he hath redeemed the sold thing of his brother;

²⁶ and when a man hath no redeemer, and his own hand hath attained, and he hath found as sufficient for its redemption,

²⁷ then he hath reckoned the years of its sale, and hath given back that which is over to the man to whom he sold it, and he hath returned to his possession.
