Leviticus 25:3-9

³six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt cut thy vine-yard, and thou shalt gather the fruits thereof;

⁴forsooth in the seventh year shall be the sabbath of the earth, of the resting of the Lord; thou shalt not sow the field, and thou shalt not cut the vineyard,

⁵thou shalt not reap those things which the earth bringeth forth freely, and thou shalt not gather the grapes of thy first fruits, as vintage; for it is the year of resting of the land;

⁶but those fruits shall be to you into meat, to thee, and to thy servant, and to thine handmaid, and to thine hired man, and to the comeling that is a pilgrim with thee;

⁷all things that come forth, shall give meat to thy work beasts, and thy small beasts.

⁸Also thou shalt number to thee seven weeks of years, that is, seven times seven, which altogether make nine and forty years;

⁹and thou shalt sound with a clarion in the seventh month, in the tenth day of the month, in the time of propitiation, that is, mercy, in all your land.
