CHAP.

Nd the LORD fpake unto Mofes in mount Sinai, faying,

a Speak unto the children of Ifrael, and fay unto them, When ye come into the and which I give you, then shall the land keep a fabbath unto the LORD.

3 Six years thou shalt fow thy field, and fix years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof.

4 But in the feventh year shall be a fabbath of reft unto the land, a fabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither fow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

That which groweth of its own accord of thy harveft, thou shalt not reap, neither Rather the grapes of thy vine undreffed: for it is a year of reft unto the land.

6 And the fabbath of the land fhall be meat for you, for thee, and for thy fervant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired fervant, and for thy ftranger that fojourn eth with thee,

7 And for thy cattel, and for the beafts that are in thy land, fhall all the increafe thereof be meat.

And thou fhalt number feven fahbaths of years unto thee, feven times feven years, and the space of the feven fabbaths of years fhall be unto thee forty and nine years.

9 Then fhalt thou caufe the trumpet of the jubile to found, on the tenth day of the feventh month; in the day of atonement, fall ye make the trumpet found throughour all your land.

The year of Jubile.

10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year. and proclaim liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof: it fhall be a jubile unto you, and ye shall return every man unto his poffeffion, and ye fhall return every man unto his family.

II A jubile fhall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not fow, neither reap that which groweth of it felf in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undreffed.

12 For it is the jubile, it fhall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

13 In the year of this jubile ye fhall return every man unto his poffeffion.

14 And if thou fell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyeft ought of thy neighbours hand, ye fhall not opprefs one another.

IS According to the number of years after the jubile, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he thall fell unto thee:

16 According to the multitude of years thou shalt increafe the price thereof, and according to the fewnefs of years thou fhalt diminish the price of it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits doth he fell unto thee.

17 Ye fhall not therefore opprefs one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: For I am the LORD your God.

18 Wherefore ye fhall do my ftatutes, and keep my judgments, and do them, and ye shall dwell in the land in fafety.

19 And the land fhall yield her fruit, and ye fhall eat your fill, and dwell there in in fafety.

20 And if ye fhall fay, What fhall we eat the feventh year? behold, we shall not fow, nor gather in our increase:

21 Then I will command my bleffing upon you in the fixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

22 And ye fhall fow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit, until the ninth year, until her fruits come in, ye fhall eat of the old ftore.

23 The land shall not be fold for ever: for the land is mine, for ye are strangers and fojourners with me.

24 And in all the land of your poffeffion, ye fhall grant a redemption for the land.

25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath fold away fome of his poffeffion, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then fhall he redeem that which his brother fold.

26 And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it : 27 Then let him count the years of the fale thereof, and reftore the overplus un

28 But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is fold, fhall remain in the hand of him tha: hath bought it, until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it fhall go out, and he fhall return unto his poffeffion.

29 And if a man fell a dwelling-houfe in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is fold: with in a full year may he redeem it.

30 And if it be not redeemed within the fpace of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city, fhall be eftablished for ever to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it fhall not go out in the jubile.

31 But the houfes of the villages which have no walls round about them, fhall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they fhall go out in the jubile.

32 Notwithstanding, the cities of the Levites, and the houfes of the cities of their poffeffion, may the Levites redeem at any time.

33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the houfe that was fold, and the city of his poffeffion fhall go out in the year of jubile: for the houfes of the cities of the Levites, are their poffeflion among the children of Ifrael.

34 But the field of the fuburbs of their cities may not be fold, for it is their perpetual poffeffion.

35 And if thy brother be waren poor, and fallen in decay with thee, then thou fhalt relieve him: yea, though he be a ftranger, or a fojourner, that he may live with

thee.

36 Take thou no ufury of him, or increase but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.

37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon ufury, nor lend him thy victuals for increafe.

38 I am the LORD your God which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

39 And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be fold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to ferve as a bond-fervant :

40 But as an hired fervant, and as a fojourner he fhall be with thee, and fhall ferve thee unto the year of jubile.

41 And then thall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and thali return unto his own family, and unto the poffeffion of his fathers fhall he return.

47 And if a fojourner or ftranger rich by thee, and thy brother that dw by him wax peor,and fell himfelf unt ftranger or fojourner by thee, or to ftock of the ftrangers family:

48 After that he is fold, he may b deemed again, one of his brethren redeem him:

49 Either his uncle, or his uncles may redeem him, or any that is nig kin unto him, of his family, may red him, or if he be able, he may red himself.

so And he fhall reckon with him bought him, from the year that he was to him, unto the year of jubile: and price of his fale fhall be according unto number of years, according to the tim an hired fervant fhall it be with him.

SI If there be yet many years behi according unto them he mall give a the price of his redemption out of money that he was bought for.
