Leviticus 25:16-20 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

16. If there are many years before the next Jubilee, the price will be high. If the years are few, the price will be lower. So your neighbor is really only selling a number of crops to you. At the next Jubilee, the land will again belong to that family.

17. You must not cheat each other. You must honor your God. I am the Lord your God.

18. “Remember my laws and rules. Obey them and you will live safely in your country.

19. And the land will produce good crops for you. Then you will have plenty of food, and you will live safely on the land.

20. “But maybe you will say, ‘If we don’t plant seeds or gather our crops, we will not have anything to eat during the seventh year.’
