New Testament

Leviticus 25:16-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

16. If there are many years, the price will be high. If there are only a few years, lower the price. This is because your neighbor is really selling only a few crops to you. At the next Jubilee the land will again belong to his family.

17. You must not cheat each other. You respect your God. I am the Lord your God.

18. “‘Remember my laws and rules, and obey them. Then you will live safely in the land.

19. The land will give good crops to you. You will eat as much as you want. And you will live safely in the land.

20. “‘But you might ask, “If we don’t plant seeds or gather crops, what will we eat the seventh year?”

21. Don’t worry. I will send you a great blessing during the sixth year. That year the land will produce enough crops for 3 years.

22. When you plant in the eighth year, you will still be eating from the old crop. You will eat the old crop until the harvest of the ninth year.
