Leviticus 25:8–15

⁸Thou shalt also number to thee seven weeks of years: that is to say, seven times seven, which together make forty-nine years.

⁹And thou shalt sound the trumpet in the seventh month, the tenth day of the month, in the time of the expiation in all your land.

¹⁰And thou shalt sanctify the fiftieth year, and shalt proclaim remission to all the inhabitants of thy land: for it is the year of jubilee. Every man shall return to his possession, and every one shall go back to his former family:

¹¹Because it is the jubilee and the fiftieth year. You shall not sow, nor reap the things that grow in the field of their own accord, neither shall you gather the firstfruits of the vines,

¹²Because of the sanctification of the jubilee. But as they grow you shall presently eat them.

¹³In the year of the jubilee all shall return to their possessions.

¹⁴When thou shalt sell any thing to thy neighbour, or shalt buy of him: grieve not thy brother. But thou shalt buy of him according to the number of years from the jubilee.

¹⁵And he shall sell to thee according to the computation of the fruits.
