“When her days of purification are complete, whether for a son or daughter, she is to bring to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting a year-old male lamb for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin offering.

“On the eighth day he must take two unblemished male lambs, an unblemished year-old ewe lamb, a grain offering of three quarts of fine flour mixed with olive oil, and one-third of a quart of olive oil.

This is to be a permanent statute for you, to make atonement for the Israelites once a year because of all their sins.” And all this was done as the Lord commanded Moses.

In the fourth year all its fruit must be consecrated as a praise offering to the Lord.

But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit. In this way its yield will increase for you; I am Yahweh your God.

On the day you wave the sheaf, you are to offer a year-old male lamb without blemish as a burnt offering to the Lord.

You are to present with the bread seven unblemished male lambs a year old, one young bull, and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord, with their grain offerings and drink offerings, a fire offering of a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

You are also to prepare one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old as a fellowship sacrifice.

You are to celebrate it as a festival to the Lord seven days each year. This is a permanent statute for you throughout your generations; you must celebrate it in the seventh month.

But there will be a Sabbath of complete rest for the land in the seventh year, a Sabbath to the Lord: you are not to sow your field or prune your vineyard.

You are not to reap what grows by itself from your crop, or harvest the grapes of your untended vines. It must be a year of complete rest for the land.

Whatever the land produces during the Sabbath year can be food for you—for yourself, your male or female slave, and the hired hand or foreigner who stays with you.

You are to consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim freedom in the land for all its inhabitants. It will be your Jubilee, when each of you is to return to his property and each of you to his clan.

The fiftieth year will be your Jubilee; you are not to sow, reap what grows by itself, or harvest its untended vines.

“In this Year of Jubilee, each of you will return to his property.

If you wonder: ‘What will we eat in the seventh year if we don’t sow or gather our produce?’

I will appoint My blessing for you in the sixth year, so that it will produce a crop sufficient for three years.

When you sow in the eighth year, you will be eating from the previous harvest. You will be eating this until the ninth year when its harvest comes in.

But if he cannot obtain enough to repay him, what he sold will remain in the possession of its purchaser until the Year of Jubilee. It is to be released at the Jubilee, so that he may return to his property.

“If a man sells a residence in a walled city, his right of redemption will last until a year has passed after its sale; his right of redemption will last a year.

If it is not redeemed by the end of a full year, then the house in the walled city is permanently transferred to its purchaser throughout his generations. It is not to be released on the Jubilee.

Let him stay with you as a hired hand or temporary resident; he may work for you until the Year of Jubilee.

The one who purchased him is to calculate the time from the year he sold himself to him until the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale will be determined by the number of years. It will be set for him like the daily wages of a hired hand.

If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, he will calculate and pay the price of his redemption in proportion to his remaining years.

He will stay with him like a man hired year by year. A foreign owner is not to rule over him harshly in your sight.

If he is not redeemed in any of these ways, he and his children are to be released at the Year of Jubilee.

You will eat the old grain of the previous year and will clear out the old to make room for the new.

If he consecrates his field during the Year of Jubilee, the price will stand according to your assessment.

But if he consecrates his field after the Jubilee, the priest will calculate the price for him in proportion to the years left until the next Year of Jubilee, so that your assessment will be reduced.

then the priest will calculate for him the amount of the assessment up to the Year of Jubilee, and the person will pay the assessed value on that day as a holy offering to the Lord.

In the Year of Jubilee the field will return to the one he bought it from, the original owner.
