² “Say to the people of Israel, ‘When you come to the land I will give you, then the land will have a Year of Rest to the Lord. ³ Six years you will plant seeds in your field. Six years you will take care of your vines and gather their fruit. ⁴ But the seventh year will be a Year of Rest for the land, a Year of Rest to the Lord. You will not plant seeds in your field or take care of your vines.
