Leviticus 25:12-22 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

12. For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat its crops out of the field.

13. 'On this year of jubilee each of you shall return to his own property.

14. If you make a sale, moreover, to your friend or buy from your friend's hand, you shall not wrong one another.

15. Corresponding to the number of years after the jubilee, you shall buy from your friend; he is to sell to you according to the number of years of crops.

16. In proportion to the extent of the years you shall increase its price, and in proportion to the fewness of the years you shall diminish its price, for it is a number of crops he is selling to you.

17. So you shall not wrong one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am the Lord your God.

18. 'You shall thus observe My statutes and keep My judgments, so as to carry them out, that you may live securely on the land.

19. Then the land will yield its produce, so that you can eat your fill and live securely on it.

20. But if you say, "What are we going to eat on the seventh year if we do not sow or gather in our crops?"

21. then I will so order My blessing for you in the sixth year that it will bring forth the crop for three years.

22. When you are sowing the eighth year, you can still eat old things from the crop, eating the old until the ninth year when its crop comes in.
