Therefore you shall not oppress one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am the Lord your God.
18
'So you shall observe My statutes and keep My judgments, and perform them; and you will dwell in the land in safety.
19
Then the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill, and dwell there in safety.
20
And if you say, "What shall we eat in the seventh year, since we shall not sow nor gather in our produce?"
21
Then I will command My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it will bring forth produce enough for three years.
22
And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old produce until the ninth year; until its produce comes in, you shall eat of the old harvest.
23
'The land shall not be sold permanently, for the land is Mine; for you are strangers and sojourners with Me.
24
And in all the land of your possession you shall grant redemption of the land.
25
'If one of your brethren becomes poor, and has sold some of his possession, and if his redeeming relative comes to redeem it, then he may redeem what his brother sold.
26
Or if the man has no one to redeem it, but he himself becomes able to redeem it,
27
then let him count the years since its sale, and restore the remainder to the man to whom he sold it, that he may return to his possession.
