11 The 50th year will be a special celebration for you. Don’t plant seeds, don’t harvest the crops that grow by themselves, and don’t gather grapes from the vines that are not trimmed.
12 That year is Jubilee. It will be a holy time for you. You will eat the crops that come from the field.
13 In the year of Jubilee, you will go back to your own property.
14 “Don’t cheat your neighbors when you sell your land to them. Don’t cheat one another when you buy or sell land.
15 If you want to buy your neighbor’s land, count the number of years since the last Jubilee, and use that number to decide the right price. You are only buying the rights for harvesting crops until the next Jubilee.
16 If there are many years before the next Jubilee, the price will be high. If the years are few, the price will be lower. So your neighbor is really only selling a number of crops to you. At the next Jubilee, the land will again belong to that family.
17 You must not cheat each other. You must honor your God. I am the Lord your God.
