Leviticus 25:14-23 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

14. “If you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor, you are not to wrong one another.

15. Corresponding to the number of years after the Jubilee you are to purchase land from your neighbor’s hand. He is to sell it to you based on the number of years of crops.

16. In proportion to the extent of years you may increase its price, or decrease its price in proportion to the fewness of years, because he is selling a number of harvests to you.

17. You are not to cheat one another, but fear your God, for I am Adonai your God.

18. “Therefore you are to keep My statutes and observe My ordinances, and carry them out, so that you may live securely in the land.

19. Then the land will yield its fruit, and you may eat your fill and live there in safety.

20. Now if you ask: What are we to eat during the seventh year if, see, we are not to sow, nor gather in our increase?

21. Now I will command My blessing to you in the sixth year, so that it will yield a harvest sufficient for three years.

22. When you sow during the eighth year, you will still be eating the old, stored harvest until the harvest of the ninth year comes in.

23. “Moreover, the land is not to be sold ­permanently, because the land is Mine. For you are sojourners with Me.
