Leviticus 25:8-12

New International Version

The Year of Jubilee^(A)(B)

⁸ “‘Count off seven sabbath years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbath years amount to a period of forty-nine years. ⁹ Then have the trumpet^(C) sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month;^(D) on the Day of Atonement^(E) sound the trumpet throughout your land. ¹⁰ Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty^(F) throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee^(G) for you; each of you is to return to your family property^(H) and to your own clan. ¹¹ The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee^(I) for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines.^{(J) 12} For it is a jubilee and is to be holy for you; eat only what is taken directly from the fields.
