(2) Speak to the Children of Israel, and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you, the land is to cease, a Shabbat ceasing to the Maker. (3) For six years you are to sow your field and for six years you are to prune your vineyard, then you are to gather in the yield. (4) But in the seventh year there shall be a Shabbat of Shabbat ceasing for the land, a Shabbat to the Maker: your field you are not to sow, your vineyard you are not to prune. (5) The after growth of your harvest you are not to harvest, the grapes of your consecrated vines you are not to amass, a Shabbat of Shabbat ceasing shall there be for the land. (6) Now the Shabbat yield of the land is for you, for eating, for you, for your servant, and for your handmaid, for your hired hand, and for your resident settler who sojourn with you; (7) and your cattle and the beasts in your land may eat all its yield.

(8) Now you are to number yourselves seven Shabbat cycles of years - seven years, seven times- so the time of the seven Shabbat cycles of years will be for you a total of nine and forty years.. (9) Then you are to give forth on the shofar a blast, in the seventh New Moon, on the tenth after the New Moon, on the Day of Atonement, you are to give blast on the shofar throughout the land. (10) and you are to hallow the year, the fiftieth year, proclaiming freedom/liberty throughout the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee/homebringing for you: each of you are to return, each to their holding, each to their clan you are to return. (11) It is Homebringing/jubilee, the fiftieth year - it shall be for you, you are not to sow, you are not to harvest its after growth, you are not to gather its consecrated grapes, (12) for it is a Homebringing/jubilee, holy shall it be for you, only from the field may you eat its produce.

(13) In this year of Homebringing/jubilee, you are to return, each person to their holding. (14) Now when you sell property for sale to your neighbor or purchase it from the hand of your neighbor, do not maltreat any person their sibling. (15) By the number of years after the Homebringing/jubilee you are to purchase it from your neighbor, by the number of years of produce left one is to sell it to you. (16) the more such years, the higher the price you pay; the fewer such years, the lower the price; for what one is selling you is a number of harvests. (17) So you are not to maltreat any human one another, rather, you are to hold your God in awe, for I the Maker am your God.

(18) You are to observe My laws and faithfully keep My rules, that you may live upon the land in security; (19) the land shall yield its fruit and you shall eat your fill, and you shall live upon it in security. (20) And should you ask, “What are we to eat in the seventh year, if we may neither sow nor gather in our crops?” (21) I will ordain My blessing for you in the sixth year, so that it shall yield a crop sufficient for three years. (22) When you sow in the eighth year, you will still be eating old grain of that crop; you will be eating the old until the ninth year, until its crops come in.

(23) But the land is not to be sold in harness, for the land is mine; for you are sojourners and resident settlers with me. (24) Throughout all the land of your holdings, you are to allow for redemption of the land.

(35) If your kin, being in straits, come under your authority, and are held by you as though resident aliens, let them live by your side: (36) do not exact advance or accrued interest, but fear your God. Let your kin live by your side as such. (37) Do not lend your money at advance interest, nor give your food at accrued interest. (38) I the Maker am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
