The Year of Jubilee

⁸ “‘Count off seven groups of 7 years. This will be 49 years. During that time there will be 7 years of rest for the land. ⁹ On the Day of Cleansing, you must blow the horn of a male sheep. This will be on the tenth day of the seventh month. You must blow the horn through the whole country. ¹⁰ Make the fiftieth year a special year. Announce freedom for all the people living in your country. This time will be called Jubilee.^[a] Each of you will go back to his own property. And each of you will go back to his own family and family group.
