Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
安息年(A)
25 耶和华在西奈山吩咐摩西说： 2 “你要吩咐以色列人，对他们说：你们到了我所赐你们那地的时候，地要休耕，向耶和华守安息。 3 你们六年要耕种田地，六年要修整葡萄园，收藏地的出产。 4 第七年，地要守完全安息的安息年，就是向耶和华守安息。你们不可耕种田地，也不可修整葡萄园。 5 不可收割自然生长的庄稼，也不可摘取没有修剪的葡萄树上的葡萄。这年，地要完全安息。 6 地在安息年所长出的，要给你和你的奴仆、使女、雇工，以及寄居在你那里的外人作食物。 7 所有的出产也要给你的牲畜和你地上的走兽作食物。”
禧年
8 “你要计算七个安息年，就是七个七年。这就成为你的七个安息年，一共四十九年。 9 七月初十，你要大声吹角；这是赎罪日，你要在全地吹角。 10 你们要以第五十年为圣年，在全地向所有的居民宣告自由。这是你们的禧年，各人的产业要归还自己，各人要归回自己的家。 11 第五十年要作为你们的禧年。你们不可耕种，不可收割自然生长的庄稼，也不可摘取没有修剪的葡萄树上的葡萄。 12 因为这是禧年，是你们的圣年；你们要吃地中自然生长的农作物。
13 “这禧年，你们各人的产业要归还自己。 14 无论你卖什么给邻舍，或从邻舍的手中买什么，彼此不可亏负。 15 你要按照禧年后的年数向邻舍买；他要按照可收成的年数卖给你； 16 年数越多，价钱就越高；年数越少，价钱就越低，因为他卖给你的是收成的数量。 17 你们彼此不可亏负，只要敬畏你的 神，因为我是耶和华—你们的 神。”
安息年的食物
18 “你们要遵行我的律例，谨守我的典章，遵行它们，就可以在那地上安然居住。 19 地必出产果实，你们可以吃饱，在那地上安然居住。 20 你们若说：‘看哪，第七年我们不耕种，也不收藏农作物，我们吃什么呢？’ 21 我必在第六年发令赐福给你们，地就长出三年的农作物来。 22 第八年你们要耕种，也要吃陈粮；等到第九年农作物收成的时候，你们还有陈粮吃。”
赎房地产的条例
23 “地不可以卖断，因为地是我的；你们在我面前是客旅，是寄居的。 24 在你们所得为业的全地，要准许人有权将地赎回。
25 “你的弟兄若渐渐贫穷，卖了他的一些产业，他的至亲就要来把弟兄所卖的赎回。 26 若没有人能为他赎回，他的手头渐渐宽裕，能够赎回， 27 就要计算卖后的年数，把剩余年数的价钱归还给那买主，他的地业便归还自己。 28 若他手头的财力不够赎回，所卖的地就要留在买主的手里，直到禧年。到了禧年，地业要归还卖主。
29 “人若卖城墙内的住宅，卖了以后，一整年内他有权赎回；这是他可以赎回的期限。 30 若他在一整年内不赎回，这有墙之城的房屋就确定永归买主，直到世世代代；在禧年也不必归还。 31 但周围无城墙之村庄的房屋，要看为乡下的田地，可以赎回；到了禧年就要归还。 32 至于利未人所得为业的城镇，利未人可以随时赎回他们城镇中的房屋。 33 在所得为业的城镇，利未人若卖了房屋，又不赎回，到了禧年仍要归还原主，因为利未人城镇的房屋是他们在以色列人中的产业。 34 但是利未人各城郊外之地是不可卖的，因为这是他们永远的产业。”
借贷给穷人的条例
35 “你的弟兄在你那里若渐渐贫穷，手头缺乏，你就要帮补他，使他与你一同生活，像外人和寄居的一样。 36 不可向他取利息，也不可向他索取高利；要敬畏你的 神，使你的弟兄与你一同生活。 37 你不可为了利息借钱给他，也不可为了高利而借粮。 38 我是耶和华—你们的 神，曾领你们从埃及地出来，为要把迦南地赐给你们，要作你们的 神。
39 “你的弟兄在你那里若渐渐贫穷，将自己卖给你，你不可叫他像奴仆服事你。 40 他在你那里要像雇工和寄居的，服事你直到禧年。 41 他和他儿女要离开你，一同出去，归回自己的家，回到他祖宗的地业去。 42 因为他们是我的仆人，是我从埃及地领出来的。他们不可被卖为奴仆。 43 不可苛刻管辖他，只要敬畏你的 神。 44 至于你所要的奴仆和使女，可以来自你们四围的列国，你们可以从他们中买奴仆和使女。 45 那些寄居在你们中间的外人和他们的家属，就是在你们地上所生的，你们可以从其中买人；他们要作你们的产业。 46 你们可以把他们遗留给你们后代的子孙，作为永远继承的产业；你们可以使他们作奴仆。至于你们的弟兄以色列人，你们彼此不可苛刻管辖。
47 “住在你那里的外人或寄居的，若手头渐渐宽裕，你的弟兄却渐渐贫穷，将自己卖给那外人或寄居的，或外人家族的一支， 48 卖了以后，有权把自己赎回。他弟兄中的一位可以把他赎回。 49 他的叔伯或叔伯的儿子可以赎他。他家族中的骨肉之亲也可以赎他。他自己若手头渐渐宽裕，也可以赎回自己。 50 他要跟买主计算，从卖自己的那年起，算到禧年；所卖的价钱要按照年数计算，就是雇工跟买主在一起的日子。 51 若剩余的年数多，就要按着年数从买价中偿还他的赎价。 52 若到禧年只剩下几年，就要按着年数跟买主计算，偿还他的赎价。 53 他和买主同住，要像按年雇用的工人，买主不可苛刻管辖他。 54 他若不这样被赎，到了禧年，仍要和他的儿女一同出去。 55 因为以色列人都是我的仆人，他们是我的仆人，是我领他们从埃及地出来的。我是耶和华—你们的 神。”

The Sabbath Year
25 (A)The Lord spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into (B)the land that I give you, the land shall keep a Sabbath to the Lord. 3 For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its fruits, 4 but in the seventh year there shall be a Sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a Sabbath to the Lord. You shall not sow your field or prune your vineyard. 5 (C)You shall not reap what grows of itself in your harvest, or gather the grapes of your undressed vine. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land. 6 The Sabbath of the land[a] shall provide food for you, for yourself and for your male and female slaves[b] and for your hired worker and the sojourner who lives with you, 7 and for your cattle and for the wild animals that are in your land: (D)all its yield shall be for food.
The Year of Jubilee
8 “You shall count seven weeks[c] of years, seven times seven years, so that the time of the seven weeks of years shall give you forty-nine years. 9 Then you shall sound (E)the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. (F)On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. 10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and (G)proclaim 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 (H)you shall return to his clan. 11 That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it (I)you shall neither sow nor reap (J)what grows of itself nor gather the grapes from the undressed vines. 12 For it is a jubilee. It shall be holy to you. (K)You may eat the produce of the field.[d]
13 (L)“In this year of jubilee each of you shall return to his property. 14 And if you make a sale to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor, (M)you shall not wrong one another. 15 (N)You shall pay your neighbor according to the number of years after the jubilee, and he shall sell to you according to the number of years for crops. 16 If the years are many, you shall increase the price, and if the years are few, you shall reduce the price, for it is the number of the crops that he is selling to you. 17 (O)You shall not wrong one another, but you shall fear your God, for I am the Lord your God.
18 (P)“Therefore you shall do my statutes and keep my rules and perform them, and then (Q)you will dwell in the land securely. 19 (R)The land will yield its fruit, and (S)you will eat your fill (T)and dwell in it securely. 20 And if you say, (U)‘What shall we eat in the seventh year, if (V)we may not sow or gather in our crop?’ 21 I will (W)command my blessing on you in the sixth year, so that it will produce a crop sufficient for three years. 22 (X)When you sow in the eighth year, you will be eating some of (Y)the old crop; you shall eat the old until the ninth year, when its crop arrives.
Redemption of Property
23 “The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for (Z)the land is mine. For you are strangers and sojourners with me. 24 And in all the country you possess, you shall allow a redemption of the land.
25 “If your brother becomes poor and sells part of his property, (AA)then his nearest redeemer shall come and redeem what his brother has sold. 26 If a man has no one to redeem it and then himself becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it, 27 let (AB)him calculate the years since he sold it and pay back the balance to the man to whom he sold it, and then return to his property. 28 But if he does not have sufficient means to recover it, then what he sold shall remain in the hand of the buyer until the year of jubilee. In the jubilee it shall (AC)be released, and (AD)he shall return to his property.
29 “If a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, he may redeem it within a year of its sale. For a full year he shall have the right of redemption. 30 If it is not redeemed within a full year, then the house in the walled city shall belong in perpetuity to the buyer, throughout his generations; (AE)it shall not be released in the jubilee. 31 But the houses of the villages that have no wall around them shall be classified with the fields of the land. They may be redeemed, and (AF)they shall be released in the jubilee. 32 As for (AG)the cities of the Levites, the Levites may redeem at any time the houses in the cities they possess. 33 And if one of the Levites exercises his right of redemption, then the house that was sold in a city they possess shall be released in the jubilee. For the houses in the cities of the Levites are their possession among the people of Israel. 34 But the fields (AH)of pastureland belonging to their cities may not be sold, for that is their possession forever.
Kindness for Poor Brothers
35 “If your brother becomes poor and cannot maintain himself with you, (AI)you shall support him as though he were a stranger and a sojourner, and he shall live with you. 36 (AJ)Take no interest from him or profit, but (AK)fear your God, that your brother may live beside you. 37 (AL)You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. 38 (AM)I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
39 (AN)“If your brother becomes poor beside you and sells himself to you, you shall not make him serve as a slave: 40 he shall be with you as a hired worker and as a sojourner. He shall serve with you until the year of the jubilee. 41 (AO)Then he shall go out from you, (AP)he and his children with him, and go back to his own clan and return (AQ)to the possession of his fathers. 42 For they are (AR)my servants,[e] whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as slaves. 43 (AS)You shall not rule over him (AT)ruthlessly but (AU)shall fear your God. 44 As for your male and female slaves whom you may have: you may buy male and female slaves from among the nations that are around you. 45 (AV)You may also buy from among the strangers who sojourn with you and their clans that are with you, who have been born in your land, and they may be your property. 46 You may bequeath them to your sons after you to inherit as a possession forever. You may make slaves of them, but over your brothers the people of Israel (AW)you shall not rule, one over another ruthlessly.
Redeeming a Poor Man
47 “If a stranger or sojourner with you becomes rich, and (AX)your brother beside him becomes poor and sells himself to the stranger or sojourner with you or to a member of the stranger's clan, 48 then after he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brothers may redeem him, 49 or his uncle or his cousin may (AY)redeem him, or a close relative from his clan may redeem him. Or if he (AZ)grows rich he may redeem himself. 50 He shall calculate with his buyer from the year when he sold himself to him until the year of jubilee, and the price of his sale shall vary with the number of years. The time he was with his owner shall be (BA)rated as the time of a hired worker. 51 If there are still many years left, he shall pay proportionately for his redemption some of his sale price. 52 If 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. 53 He shall treat him as a worker hired year by year. (BB)He shall not rule ruthlessly over him in your sight. 54 And if he is not redeemed by these means, then (BC)he and his children with him shall be released in the year of jubilee. 55 For it is (BD)to me that the people of Israel are servants.[f] They are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

The Sabbath Year
25 The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai,(A) 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a sabbath to the Lord. 3 For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops.(B) 4 But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of sabbath rest,(C) a sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards.(D) 5 Do not reap what grows of itself(E) or harvest the grapes(F) of your untended vines.(G) The land is to have a year of rest. 6 Whatever the land yields during the sabbath year(H) will be food for you—for yourself, your male and female servants, and the hired worker and temporary resident who live among you, 7 as well as for your livestock and the wild animals(I) in your land. Whatever the land produces may be eaten.
The Year of Jubilee(J)(K)
8 “‘Count off seven sabbath years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbath years amount to a period of forty-nine years. 9 Then have the trumpet(L) sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month;(M) on the Day of Atonement(N) sound the trumpet throughout your land. 10 Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty(O) throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee(P) for you; each of you is to return to your family property(Q) and to your own clan. 11 The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee(R) for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines.(S) 12 For it is a jubilee and is to be holy for you; eat only what is taken directly from the fields.
13 “‘In this Year of Jubilee(T) everyone is to return to their own property.
14 “‘If you sell land to any of your own people or buy land from them, do not take advantage of each other.(U) 15 You are to buy from your own people on the basis of the number of years(V) since the Jubilee. And they are to sell to you on the basis of the number of years left for harvesting crops. 16 When the years are many, you are to increase the price, and when the years are few, you are to decrease the price,(W) because what is really being sold to you is the number of crops. 17 Do not take advantage of each other,(X) but fear your God.(Y) I am the Lord your God.(Z)
18 “‘Follow my decrees and be careful to obey my laws,(AA) and you will live safely in the land.(AB) 19 Then the land will yield its fruit,(AC) and you will eat your fill and live there in safety.(AD) 20 You may ask, “What will we eat in the seventh year(AE) if we do not plant or harvest our crops?” 21 I will send you such a blessing(AF) in the sixth year that the land will yield enough for three years.(AG) 22 While you plant during the eighth year, you will eat from the old crop and will continue to eat from it until the harvest of the ninth year comes in.(AH)
23 “‘The land(AI) must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine(AJ) and you reside in my land as foreigners(AK) and strangers. 24 Throughout the land that you hold as a possession, you must provide for the redemption(AL) of the land.
25 “‘If one of your fellow Israelites becomes poor and sells some of their property, their nearest relative(AM) is to come and redeem(AN) what they have sold. 26 If, however, there is no one to redeem it for them but later on they prosper(AO) and acquire sufficient means to redeem it themselves, 27 they are to determine the value for the years(AP) since they sold it and refund the balance to the one to whom they sold it; they can then go back to their own property.(AQ) 28 But if they do not acquire the means to repay, what was sold will remain in the possession of the buyer until the Year of Jubilee. It will be returned(AR) in the Jubilee, and they can then go back to their property.(AS)
29 “‘Anyone who sells a house in a walled city retains the right of redemption a full year after its sale. During that time the seller may redeem it. 30 If it is not redeemed before a full year has passed, the house in the walled city shall belong permanently to the buyer and the buyer’s descendants. It is not to be returned in the Jubilee. 31 But houses in villages without walls around them are to be considered as belonging to the open country. They can be redeemed, and they are to be returned in the Jubilee.
32 “‘The Levites always have the right to redeem their houses in the Levitical towns,(AT) which they possess. 33 So the property of the Levites is redeemable—that is, a house sold in any town they hold—and is to be returned in the Jubilee, because the houses in the towns of the Levites are their property among the Israelites. 34 But the pastureland belonging to their towns must not be sold; it is their permanent possession.(AU)
35 “‘If any of your fellow Israelites become poor(AV) and are unable to support themselves among you, help them(AW) as you would a foreigner and stranger, so they can continue to live among you. 36 Do not take interest(AX) or any profit from them, but fear your God,(AY) so that they may continue to live among you. 37 You must not lend them money at interest(AZ) or sell them food at a profit. 38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan(BA) and to be your God.(BB)
39 “‘If any of your fellow Israelites become poor and sell themselves to you, do not make them work as slaves.(BC) 40 They are to be treated as hired workers(BD) or temporary residents among you; they are to work for you until the Year of Jubilee. 41 Then they and their children are to be released, and they will go back to their own clans and to the property(BE) of their ancestors.(BF) 42 Because the Israelites are my servants, whom I brought out of Egypt,(BG) they must not be sold as slaves. 43 Do not rule over them ruthlessly,(BH) but fear your God.(BI)
44 “‘Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
47 “‘If a foreigner residing among you becomes rich and any of your fellow Israelites become poor and sell themselves(BJ) to the foreigner or to a member of the foreigner’s clan, 48 they retain the right of redemption(BK) after they have sold themselves. One of their relatives(BL) may redeem them: 49 An uncle or a cousin or any blood relative in their clan may redeem them. Or if they prosper,(BM) they may redeem themselves. 50 They and their buyer are to count the time from the year they sold themselves up to the Year of Jubilee.(BN) The price for their release is to be based on the rate paid to a hired worker(BO) for that number of years. 51 If many years remain, they must pay for their redemption a larger share of the price paid for them. 52 If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, they are to compute that and pay for their redemption accordingly.(BP) 53 They are to be treated as workers hired from year to year; you must see to it that those to whom they owe service do not rule over them ruthlessly.(BQ)
54 “‘Even if someone is not redeemed in any of these ways, they and their children are to be released in the Year of Jubilee, 55 for the Israelites belong to me as servants. They are my servants, whom I brought out of Egypt.(BR) I am the Lord your God.(BS)
