New Testament

Leviticus 25:13-19 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

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

14. When you will sell anything to your fellow citizen, or buy anything from him, do not cause your brother grief, but buy from him according to the number of years from the Jubilee,

15. and he shall sell to you according to the computation of the produce.

16. The more years that will remain after the Jubilee, the more the price shall increase, and the less the time is numbered, so much less shall the purchase price be. For he will sell to you the time for the produce.

17. Do be willing to afflict your countrymen, but let each one fear his God. For I am the Lord your God.

18. Accomplish my precepts, and observe my judgments, and complete them, so that you may be able to live in the land without any fear,

19. and so that the soil may produce its fruits for you, from which you may eat, even to fullness, dreading violence by no one.
