Leviticus 25:18-22 - The Problem Of The Seventh Year

18 You must observe my statutes and keep my judgments, so as to carry them out. That way you may live securely on the land. 19 The land will give you its products. You will eat all you want and live there securely. 20 You may ask: What will we eat in the seventh year if we do not plant or bring in our crops?' 21 I will give you my blessing in the sixth year so that the land will produce enough for three years. 22 You will plant again in the eighth year but live on what the land already produced. You will eat it, even in the ninth year, until the land produces more.
