ASV_Strong : Leviticus 25
1. And Jehovah[H3068] spake[H1696] unto Moses[H4872] in mount[H2022] Sinai[H5514], saying[H559],
2. Speak[H1696] unto the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478], and say[H559] unto them[H935], When ye come into the land[H776] which I give[H5414] you[H776], then shall the land keep[H7673] a sabbath[H7676] unto Jehovah[H3068].
3. Six[H8337] years[H8141] thou shalt sow[H2232] thy field[H7704], and six[H8337] years[H8141] thou shalt prune[H2168] thy vineyard[H3754], and gather[H622] in the fruits thereof[H8393];
4. but in the seventh[H7637] year[H8141] shall be a sabbath[H7676] of solemn rest[H7677] for the land[H776], a sabbath[H7676] unto Jehovah[H3068]: thou shalt neither sow[H2232] thy field[H7704], nor prune[H2168] thy vineyard[H3754].
5. That which groweth of itself[H5599] of thy harvest[H7105] thou shalt not reap[H7114], and the grapes[H6025] of thy undressed[H5139] vine thou shalt not gather[H1219]: it shall be a year[H8141] of solemn rest[H7677] for the land[H776].
6. And the sabbath[H7676] of the land[H776] shall be for food[H402] for you[H5650]; for thee, and for thy servant and for thy maid[H519], and for thy hired servant[H7916] and for thy stranger[H8453], who sojourn with thee[H1481].
7. And for thy cattle[H929], and for the beasts[H2416] that are in thy land[H776], shall all the increase[H8393] thereof be for food[H398].
8. And thou shalt number[H5608] seven[H7651] sabbaths[H7676] of years[H8141] unto thee[H7651], seven times[H6471] seven[H7651] years[H8141]; and there shall be unto thee the days[H3117] of seven[H7651] sabbaths[H7676] of years[H8141], even forty[H705] and nine[H8672] years[H8141].
9. Then shalt thou send abroad[H5674] the loud[H8643] trumpet[H7782] on the tenth[H6218] day of the seventh[H7637] month[H2320]; in the day[H3117] of atonement[H3725] shall ye send abroad[H5674] the trumpet[H7782] throughout all your land[H776].
10. And ye shall hallow[H6942] the fiftieth[H2572] year[H8141], and proclaim[H7121] liberty[H1865] throughout the land[H776] unto all the inhabitants[H3427] thereof[H3104]: it shall be a jubilee unto you[H7725]; and ye shall return every man[H376] unto his possession[H272], and ye shall return[H7725] every man[H376] unto his family[H4940].
11. A jubilee[H3104] shall that fiftieth[H2572] year[H8141] be unto you[H2232]: ye shall not sow, neither reap[H7114] that which groweth[H5599] of itself in it[H1219], nor gather the grapes in it of the undressed vines[H5139].
12. For it is a jubilee[H3104]; it shall be holy[H6944] unto you[H398]: ye shall eat the increase[H8393] thereof out of the field[H7704].
13. In this year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104] ye shall return[H7725] every man[H376] unto his possession[H272].
14. And if thou sell[H4376] aught[H4465] unto thy neighbor[H5997], or buy[H7069] of thy neighbor[H5997]'s hand[H3027], ye shall not wrong[H3238] one[H376] another[H251].
15. According to the number[H4557] of years[H8141] after[H310] the jubilee[H3104] thou shalt buy[H7069] of thy neighbor[H5997], and according unto the number[H4557] of years[H8141] of the crops[H8393] he shall sell unto thee[H4376].
16. According[H6310] to the multitude[H7230] of the years[H8141] thou shalt increase[H7235] the price[H4736] thereof[H6310], and according to the fewness[H4591] of the years[H8141] thou shalt diminish[H4591] the price[H4736] of it[H4557]; for the number of the crops[H8393] doth he sell unto thee[H4376].
17. And ye shall not wrong[H3238] one[H376] another[H5997]; but thou shalt fear[H3372] thy God[H430]: for I am Jehovah[H3068] your God[H430].
18. Wherefore ye shall do[H6213] my statutes[H2708], and keep[H8104] mine ordinances[H4941] and do[H6213] them[H3427]; and ye shall dwell in the land[H776] in safety[H983].
19. And the land[H776] shall yield[H5414] its fruit[H6529], and ye shall eat[H398] your fill[H7648], and dwell[H3427] therein in safety[H983].
20. And if ye shall say[H559], What shall we eat[H398] the seventh[H7637] year[H8141]? Behold[H2232], we shall not sow, nor gather[H622] in our increase[H8393];
21. then I will command[H6680] my blessing[H1293] upon you in the sixth[H8345] year[H8141], and it shall bring forth[H6213] fruit[H8393] for the three[H7969] years[H8141].
22. And ye shall sow[H2232] the eighth[H8066] year[H8141], and eat[H398] of the fruits[H8393], the old[H3465] store[H8671]; until the ninth year[H8141], until its fruits[H8393] come in[H935], ye shall eat[H398] the old store[H3465].
23. And the land[H776] shall not be sold[H4376] in perpetuity[H6783]; for the land[H776] is mine[H1616]: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me[H1616].
24. And in all the land[H776] of your possession[H272] ye shall grant[H5414] a redemption[H1353] for the land[H776].
25. If thy brother[H251] be waxed poor[H4134], and sell[H4376] some of his possession[H272], then shall his kinsman[H7138] that is next unto him come[H935], and shall redeem[H1350] that which his brother[H251] hath sold[H4465].
26. And if a man[H376] have no one to redeem[H1350] it[H3027], and he be waxed rich[H1767] and find sufficient to redeem it[H4672];
27. then let him reckon[H2803] the years[H8141] of the sale[H4465] thereof[H7725], and restore the overplus[H5736] unto the man[H376] to whom he sold[H4376] it[H7725]; and he shall return unto his possession[H272].
28. But if he[H3027] be not able[H1767] to get[H4672] it back for himself[H4465], then that which he hath sold shall remain in the hand[H3027] of him that hath bought[H7069] it until the year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104]: and in the jubilee[H3104] it shall go out[H3318], and he shall return[H7725] unto his possession[H272].
29. And if a man[H376] sell[H4376] a dwelling[H4186] - house[H1004] in a walled[H2346] city[H5892], then he may redeem[H1353] it within a whole[H8552] year[H8141] after it is sold[H4465]; for a full year[H3117] shall he have the right of redemption[H1353].
30. And if it be not redeemed[H1350] within the space[H4390] of a full[H8549] year[H8141], then the house[H1004] that is in the walled[H2346] city[H5892] shall be made[H6965] sure in perpetuity[H6783] to him that bought[H7069] it[H1755], throughout his generations: it shall not go out[H3318] in the jubilee[H3104].
31. But the houses[H1004] of the villages[H2691] which have no wall[H2346] round about[H5439] them shall be reckoned[H2803] with the fields[H7704] of the country[H776]: they may be redeemed[H1353], and they shall go out[H3318] in the jubilee[H3104].
32. Nevertheless the cities[H5892] of the Levites[H3881], the houses[H1004] of the cities[H5892] of their possession[H272], may the Levites[H3881] redeem[H1353] at any time[H5769].
33. And if one of the Levites[H3881] redeem[H1350], then the house[H1004] that was sold[H4465], and the city[H5892] of his possession[H272], shall go out[H3318] in the jubilee[H3104]; for the houses[H1004] of the cities[H5892] of the Levites[H3881] are their possession[H272] among[H8432] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478].
34. But the field[H7704] of the suburbs[H4054] of their cities[H5892] may not be sold[H4376]; for it is their perpetual[H5769] possession[H272].
35. And if thy brother[H251] be waxed poor[H4134], and his hand fail[H4131] with thee[H3027]; then thou shalt uphold[H2388] him[H1616]: as a stranger and a sojourner[H1616] shall he live with thee[H2416].
36. Take[H3947] thou no interest[H5392] of him or increase[H8636], but fear[H3372] thy God[H430]; that thy brother[H251] may live with thee[H2416].
37. Thou shalt not give[H5414] him thy money[H3701] upon interest[H5392], nor give[H5414] him thy victuals[H400] for increase[H4768].
38. I am Jehovah[H3068] your God[H430], who brought you forth[H3318] out of the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714], to give[H5414] you the land[H776] of Canaan[H3667], and to be your God[H430].
39. And if thy brother[H251] be waxed poor[H4134] with thee[H4376], and sell himself unto thee[H5647]; thou shalt not make him to serve[H5656] as a bond-servant[H5650].
40. As a hired servant[H7916], and as a sojourner[H8453], he shall be with thee[H5647]; he shall serve with thee unto the year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104]:
41. then shall he go out[H3318] from thee[H1121], he and his children with him[H7725], and shall return unto his own family[H4940], and unto the possession[H272] of his fathers[H1] shall he return[H7725].
42. For they are my servants[H5650], whom I brought forth[H3318] out of the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714]: they shall not be sold[H4376] as[H4466] bondmen[H5650].
43. Thou shalt not rule[H7287] over him with rigor[H6531], but shalt fear[H3372] thy God[H430].
44. And as for thy bondmen[H5650], and thy bondmaids[H519], whom thou shalt have[H1471]; of the nations that are round about[H5439] you[H7069], of them shall ye buy bondmen[H5650] and bondmaids[H519].
45. Moreover of the children[H1121] of the strangers[H8453] that sojourn[H1481] among you[H7069], of them shall ye buy, and of their families[H4940] that are with you[H3205], which they have begotten in your land[H776]: and they shall be your possession[H272].
46. And ye shall make them an inheritance[H5157] for your children[H1121] after[H310] you[H3423], to hold for a possession[H272]; of them shall ye take your bondmen[H5647] for ever[H5769]: but over your brethren[H251] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] ye shall not rule[H7287], one[H376] over another[H251], with rigor[H6531].
47. And if a stranger[H8453] or sojourner[H1616] with thee[H3027] be waxed rich[H5381], and thy brother[H251] be waxed poor[H4134] beside him[H4376], and sell himself unto the stranger[H1616] or sojourner[H8453] with thee[H6133], or to the stock of the stranger[H1616]'s family[H4940];
48. after[H310] that he is sold[H4376] he may be[H1353] redeemed[H259]: one of his brethren[H251] may redeem him[H1350];
49. or his uncle[H1730], or his uncle[H1730]'s son[H1121], may redeem[H1350] him[H7607], or any that is nigh of kin[H1320] unto him of his family[H4940] may redeem[H1350] him[H5381]; or if he be waxed rich, he may redeem[H1350] himself[H3027].
50. And he shall reckon[H2803] with him that bought[H7069] him from the year[H8141] that he sold[H4376] himself to him unto the year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104]: and the price[H3701] of his sale[H4465] shall be according unto the number[H4557] of years[H8141]; according to the time[H3117] of a hired servant shall he be with him[H7916].
51. If there be yet many[H7227] years[H8141], according[H6310] unto them he shall give back[H7725] the price of his redemption[H1353] out of the money[H3701] that he was bought for[H4736].
52. And if there remain[H7604] but few[H4592] years[H8141] unto the year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104], then he shall reckon[H2803] with him[H6310]; according unto his years[H8141] shall he give back[H7725] the price of his redemption[H1353].
53. As a servant[H7916] hired year[H8141] by year shall he be with him[H7287]: he shall not rule with rigor[H6531] over him in thy sight[H5869].
54. And if he be not redeemed[H1350] by these means[H3318], then he shall go out in the year[H8141] of jubilee[H3104], he[H1121], and his children with him.
55. For unto me the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] are servants[H5650]; they are my servants[H5650] whom I brought forth[H3318] out of the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714]: I am Jehovah[H3068] your God[H430].
