Leviticus 25:11-23 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

11. A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you; ye shall not sow nor reap that which grows of itself in it nor fence in thy consecrated vine.

12. For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the fruit of the land.

13. In this year of jubilee ye shall return each one unto his possession.

14. And if thou sell anything unto thy neighbour or buy anything of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another.

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.

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 does he sell unto thee.

17. Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the Lord your God.

18. Execute, therefore, my statutes and keep my rights and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety;

19. and the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill and dwell therein in safety.

20. And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow nor gather in our fruits,

21. then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

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.

23. The land shall not be sold for ever, for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
