The Sabbath of the Seventh Year
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 25
|
|
###### 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying,
|
|
###### 2 "Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 'When you come into the land which I give you, then the land shall keep a sabbath to the Lord.
|
|
###### 3 Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard, and gather its fruit;
|
|
###### 4 but in the seventh year there shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath to the Lord. You shall neither sow your field nor prune your vineyard.
|
|
###### 5 What grows of its own accord of your harvest you shall not reap, nor gather the grapes of your untended vine, _for_ it is a year of rest for the land.
|
|
###### 6 And the sabbath _produce_ of the land shall be food for you: for you, your male and female servants, your hired man, and the stranger who dwells with you,
|
|
###### 7 for your livestock and the beasts that _are_ in your land--all its produce shall be for food.The Year of Jubilee
|
|
|
|
###### 8 'And you shall count seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years; and the time of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years.
|
|
###### 9 Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the tenth _day_ of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall make the trumpet to sound throughout all your land.
|
|
###### 10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout _all_ the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family.
|
|
###### 11 That fiftieth year shall be a Jubilee to you; in it you shall neither sow nor reap what grows of its own accord, nor gather _the grapes_ of your untended vine.
|
|
###### 12 For it _is_ the Jubilee; it shall be holy to you; you shall eat its produce from the field.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 'In this Year of Jubilee, each of you shall return to his possession.
|
|
###### 14 And if you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor's hand, you shall not oppress one another.
|
|
###### 15 According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor, and according to the number of years of crops he shall sell to you.
|
|
###### 16 According to the multitude of years you shall increase its price, and according to the fewer number of years you shall diminish its price; for he sells to you _according_ to the number _of the years_ of the crops.
|
|
###### 17 Therefore you shall not oppress one another, but you shall fear your God; for I _am_ the Lord your God.Provisions for the Seventh Year
|
|
|
|
###### 18 'So you shall observe My statutes and keep My judgments, and perform them; and you will dwell in the land in safety.
|
|
###### 19 Then the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill, and dwell there in safety.
|
|
|
|
###### 20 'And if you say, "What shall we eat in the seventh year, since we shall not sow nor gather in our produce?"
|
|
###### 21 Then I will command My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it will bring forth produce enough for three years.
|
|
###### 22 And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old produce until the ninth year; until its produce comes in, you shall eat _of_ the old _harvest_.Redemption of Property
|
|
|
|
###### 23 'The land shall not be sold permanently, for the land _is_ Mine; for you _are_ strangers and sojourners with Me.
|
|
###### 24 And in all the land of your possession you shall grant redemption of the land.
|
|
|
|
###### 25 'If one of your brethren becomes poor, and has sold _some_ of his possession, and if his redeeming relative comes to redeem it, then he may redeem what his brother sold.
|
|
###### 26 Or if the man has no one to redeem it, but he himself becomes able to redeem it,
|
|
###### 27 then let him count the years since its sale, and restore the remainder to the man to whom he sold it, that he may return to his possession.
|
|
###### 28 But if he is not able to have _it_ restored to himself, then what was sold shall remain in the hand of him who bought it until the Year of Jubilee; and in the Jubilee it shall be released, and he shall return to his possession.
|
|
|
|
###### 29 'If a man sells a house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; _within_ a full year he may redeem it.
|
|
###### 30 But if it is not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house in the walled city shall belong permanently to him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not be released in the Jubilee.
|
|
###### 31 However the houses of villages which have no wall around them shall be counted as the fields of the country. They may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the Jubilee.
|
|
###### 32 Nevertheless the cities of the Levites, _and_ the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites may redeem at any time.
|
|
###### 33 And if a man purchases a house from the Levites, then the house that was sold in the city of his possession shall be released in the Jubilee; for the houses in the cities of the Levites _are_ their possession among the children of Israel.
|
|
###### 34 But the field of the common-land of their cities may not be sold, for it _is_ their perpetual possession.Lending to the Poor
|
|
|
|
###### 35 'If one of your brethren becomes poor, and falls into poverty among you, then you shall help him, like a stranger or a sojourner, that he may live with you.
|
|
###### 36 Take no usury or interest from him; but fear your God, that your brother may live with you.
|
|
###### 37 You shall not lend him your money for usury, nor lend him your food at a profit.
|
|
###### 38 I _am_ the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan _and_ to be your God.The Law Concerning Slavery
|
|
|
|
###### 39 'And if _one of_ your brethren _who dwells_ by you becomes poor, and sells himself to you, you shall not compel him to serve as a slave.
|
|
###### 40 As a hired servant _and_ a sojourner he shall be with you, _and_ shall serve you until the Year of Jubilee.
|
|
###### 41 And _then_ he shall depart from you--he and his children with him--and shall return to his own family. He shall return to the possession of his fathers.
|
|
###### 42 For they _are_ My servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as slaves.
|
|
###### 43 You shall not rule over him with rigor, but you shall fear your God.
|
|
###### 44 And as for your male and female slaves whom you may have--from the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.
|
|
###### 45 Moreover you may buy the children of the strangers who dwell among you, and their families who are with you, which they beget in your land; and they shall become your property.
|
|
###### 46 And you may take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit _them as_ a possession; they shall be your permanent slaves. But regarding your brethren, the children of Israel, you shall not rule over one another with rigor.
|
|
|
|
###### 47 'Now if a sojourner or stranger close to you becomes rich, and _one of_ your brethren _who dwells_ by him becomes poor, and sells himself to the stranger _or_ sojourner close to you, or to a member of the stranger's family,
|
|
###### 48 after he is sold he may be redeemed again. One of his brothers may redeem him;
|
|
###### 49 or his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him; or _anyone_ who is near of kin to him in his family may redeem him; or if he is able he may redeem himself.
|
|
###### 50 Thus he shall reckon with him who bought him: The price of his release shall be according to the number of years, from the year that he was sold to him until the Year of Jubilee; _it shall be_ according to the time of a hired servant for him.
|
|
###### 51 If _there are_ still many years _remaining_, according to them he shall repay the price of his redemption from the money with which he was bought.
|
|
###### 52 And if there remain but a few years until the Year of Jubilee, then he shall reckon with him, _and_ according to his years he shall repay him the price of his redemption.
|
|
###### 53 He shall be with him as a yearly hired servant, and he shall not rule with rigor over him in your sight.
|
|
###### 54 And if he is not redeemed in these _years_, then he shall be released in the Year of Jubilee--he and his children with him.
|
|
###### 55 For the children of Israel _are_ servants to Me; they _are_ My servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt: I _am_ the Lord your God.
