'1Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its crop,
4
but during 2the seventh year the land shall have a sabbath rest, a sabbath to the LORD ; you shall not sow your field nor prune your vineyard.
5
'Your harvest's aaftergrowth you shall not reap, and your grapes of untrimmed vines you shall not gather ; the land shall have a sabbatical year.
6
'3All of you shall have the sabbath products of the land for food ; yourself, and your male and female slaves , and your hired man and your foreign resident, those who live as aliens with you.
7
'Even your cattle and the animals that are in your land shall have all its crops to eat.
8
'You are also to count off seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven sabbaths of years, namely, forty-nine years.
9
'You shall then sound a ram's horn abroad on 4the tenth day of the seventh month ; on the day of atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land.
10
'You shall thus consecrate the fiftieth year and 5proclaim ba release through the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, cand 6each of you shall return to his own property, dand each of you shall return to his family.
11
'You shall have the fiftieth year as a jubilee ; you shall not sow, nor reap its aftergrowth, nor gather in from its untrimmed vines.
12
'For it is a jubilee ; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat its crops out of the field.
13
'7On this year of jubilee each of you shall return to his own property.
