The Year of Jubilee
8“You shall count seven weeks ▼▼Or Sabbaths
of years, seven times seven years, so that the time of the seven weeks of years shall give you forty-nine years. 9Then you shall sound bthe loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. cOn the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. 10And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and dproclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of eyou shall return to his clan. 11That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it fyou shall neither sow nor reap gwhat grows of itself nor gather the grapes from the undressed vines. 12For it is a jubilee. It shall be holy to you. hYou may eat the produce of the field. ▼▼Or countryside

The time he was with his owner shall be krated as the time of a hired worker. 51If there are still many years left, he shall pay proportionately for his redemption some of his sale price. 52If there remain but a few years until the year of jubilee, he shall calculate and pay for his redemption in proportion to his years of service. 53He shall treat him as a worker hired year by year. lHe shall not rule ruthlessly over him in your sight. 54And if he is not redeemed by these means, then mhe and his children with him shall be released in the year of jubilee.Numbers 36:4
