LE-25:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,



LE-25:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
When ye come

into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a
sabbath unto the

LORD.

LE-25:3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou
shalt prune

thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;

LE-25:4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto
the land, a

sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor
prune thy

vineyard.

LE-25:5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest
thou shalt not

reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: [for] it
is a year of

rest unto the land.

LE-25:6 And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for
thee, and for

thy servant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and
for thy stranger

that sojourneth with thee,

LE-25:7 And for thy cattle, and for the beast that [are] in thy
land, shall

all the increase thereof be meat.

LE-25:8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee,
seven times

seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall
be unto thee

forty and nine years.

LE-25:9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubilee to
sound on the

tenth [day] of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall
ye make the

trumpet sound throughout all your land.

LE-25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim
liberty

throughout [all] 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.

LE-25:11 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 thy vine undressed.

LE-25:12 For it [is] the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you: ye
shall eat the

increase thereof out of the field.

LE-25:13 In the year of this jubilee ye shall return every man
unto his

possession.

LE-25:14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest
[ought] of thy

neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

LE-25:15 According to the number of years after the jubilee
thou shalt buy of

thy neighbour, [and] according unto the number of years of the
fruits he shall

sell unto thee:

LE-25:16 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.

LE-25:17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou
shalt fear thy

God: for I [am] the LORD your God.

LE-25:18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my
judgments, and do

them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

LE-25:19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat
your fill, and

dwell therein in safety.

LE-25:20 And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh
year? behold, we

shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

LE-25:21 Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth
year, and it

shall bring forth fruit for three years.

LE-25:22 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].

LE-25:23 The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land [is]
mine; for ye

[are] strangers and sojourners with me.

LE-25:24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant
a redemption

for the land.

LE-25:25 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.

LE-25:26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be
able to redeem

it;

LE-25:27 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.

LE-25:28 But if he be not able to restore [it] to him, then
that which is

sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until
the year of

jubilee: and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return
unto his

possession.

LE-25:29 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city,
then he may

redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; [within] a full
year may he

redeem it.

LE-25:30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full
year, then the

house that [is] in the walled city shall be established for ever
to him that

bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the
jubilee.

LE-25:31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall
round about them

shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be
redeemed, and they

shall go out in the jubilee.

LE-25:32 Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, [and] the
houses of the

cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.

LE-25:33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house
that was sold,

and the city of his possession, shall go out in [the year of]
jubilee: for the

houses of the cities of the Levites [are] their possession among
the children

of Israel.

LE-25:34 But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not
be sold; for it

[is] their perpetual possession.

LE-25:35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay
with thee;

then thou shalt relieve him: [yea, though he be] a stranger, or
a sojourner;

that he may live with thee.

LE-25:36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy
God; that thy

brother may live with thee.

LE-25:37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend
him thy

victuals for increase.

LE-25:38 I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you forth out
of the land of

Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, [and] to be your God.

LE-25:39 And if thy brother [that dwelleth] by thee be waxen
poor, and be

sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a
bondservant:

LE-25:40 [But] as an hired servant, [and] as a sojourner, he
shall be with

thee, [and] shall serve thee unto the year of jubilee:

LE-25:41 And [then] shall he depart from thee, [both] he and
his children

with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the
possession of his

fathers shall he return.

LE-25:42 For they [are] my servants, which I brought forth out
of the land of

Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

LE-25:43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt
fear thy God.

LE-25:44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt
have, [shall

be] of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye
buy bondmen and

bondmaids.

LE-25:45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do
sojourn among you,

of them shall ye buy, and of their families that [are] with you,
which they

begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.

LE-25:46 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your
children after

you, to inherit [them for] a possession; they shall be your
bondmen for ever:

but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule
one over

another with rigour.

LE-25:47 And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and
thy brother

[that dwelleth] by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the
stranger [or]

sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger's family:

LE-25:48 After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of
his brethren

may redeem him:

LE-25:49 Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him,
or [any] that

is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he
be able, he may

redeem himself.

LE-25:50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the
year that he

was sold to him unto the year of jubilee: and the price of his
sale shall be

according unto the number of years, according to the time of an
hired servant

shall it be with him.

LE-25:51 If [there be] yet many years [behind], according unto
them he shall

give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he
was bought

for.

LE-25:52 And if there remain but few years unto the year of
jubilee, then he

shall count with him, [and] according unto his years shall he
give him again

the price of his redemption.

LE-25:53 [And] as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him:
[and the

other] shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.

LE-25:54 And if he be not redeemed in these [years], then he
shall go out in

the year of jubilee, [both] he, and his children with him.

LE-25:55 For unto me the children of Israel [are] servants;
they [are] my

servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I [am]
the LORD your

God.
