Leviticus 25:1-4 ▼

1 Yahweh then spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai, saying,

2 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I am giving to you, then the land shall have a sabbath to Yahweh.

3 Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its produce,

4 but during the seventh year the land shall have a sabbath rest, a sabbath to Yahweh; you shall not sow your field nor prune your vineyard.
