Leviticus 25:1 In-Context

1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen in monte Sinai dicens

2 loquere filiis Israhel et dices ad eos quando ingressi fueritis terram quam ego dabo vobis sabbatizet sabbatum Domini

3 sex annis seres agrum tuum et sex annis putabis vineam tuam colligesque fructus eius

4 septimo autem anno sabbatum erit terrae requietionis Domini agrum non seres et vineam non putabis

5 quae sponte gignit humus non metes et uvas primitiarum tuarum non colliges quasi vindemiam annus enim requietionis terrae est
