Leviticus 25:1-4 ▼

1 The LORD told Moses on Mount Sinai,

2 |Tell the Israelis that when you enter the land that I'm about to give you, you are to let the land observe a Sabbath to the LORD.

3 For six years you may plant your fields, and for six years you may prune your vineyard and gather its produce.

4 But the seventh year is to be a Sabbath of rest for the land—a Sabbath for the LORD. You are not to plant your field or prune your vineyard.
