6And the sabbath-produce of the land shall be for food for you: for thee, and for thy servant and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant and for the settler by thy side that sojourn with thee;
7and for thy cattle, and for the beasts that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be for food.
8And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and there shall be unto thee the days of seven sabbaths of years, even forty and nine years.
9Then shalt thou make proclamation with the blast of the horn on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of atonement shall ye make proclamation with the horn throughout all your land.
10And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
11A 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.
12For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.
13In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.
14And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbour, or buy of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not wrong one another.
15According 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.
16According 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.
17And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the LORD your God.
18Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
19And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat until ye have enough, and dwell therein in safety.
20And if ye shall say: 'What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our increase';
21then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth produce for the three years.
22And 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.
23And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is Mine; for ye are strangers and settlers with Me.
24And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.
25If 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.
