<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;&#8216;You must count for yourselves seven weeks from the day after the Sabbath, from the day you bring the wave offering sheaf; they must be complete weeks.<n id="1" />

and the priest is to wave them &#8211; the two lambs<n id="1" /> &#8211; along with the bread of the first fruits, as a wave offering before the <sc>Lordsc>; they will be holy to the <sc>Lordsc> for the priest.p>

&#8220;The<n id="1" /> tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement.<n id="2" /> It is to be a holy assembly for you, and you must humble yourselves<n id="3" /> and present a gift to the <sc>Lordsc>.

As for any person<n id="1" /> who does any work on this particular day, I will exterminate<n id="2" /> that person from the midst of his people!<n id="3" />

It is a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you must humble yourselves on the ninth day of the month in the evening, from evening until evening you must observe your Sabbath.&#8221;<n id="1" />p>

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;&#8216;These are the appointed times of the <sc>Lordsc> that you must proclaim as holy assemblies to present a gift to the <sc>Lordsc> &#8211; burnt offering, grain offering, sacrifice, and drink offerings,<n id="1" /> each day according to its regulation,<n id="2" />

&#8220;Command the Israelites to bring<n id="1" /> to you pure oil of beaten olives for the light, to make a lamp burn continually.<n id="2" />

Outside the veil-canopy<n id="1" /> of the congregation in the Meeting Tent Aaron<n id="2" /> must arrange it from evening until morning before the <sc>Lordsc> continually. This is a perpetual statute throughout your generations.<n id="3" />

Each Sabbath day<n id="1" /> Aaron<n id="2" /> must arrange it before the <sc>Lordsc> continually; this portion<n id="3" /> is from the Israelites as a perpetual covenant.

That fiftieth year will be your jubilee; you must not sow the land, harvest its aftergrowth, or pick the grapes of its unpruned vines.<n id="1" />

If you make a sale<n id="1" /> to your fellow citizen<n id="2" /> or buy<n id="3" /> from your fellow citizen, no one is to wrong his brother.<n id="4" />

If you say, &#8216;What will we eat in the seventh year if we do not sow and gather our produce?&#8217;

and you may sow the eighth year and eat from that sixth year&#8217;s produce<n id="1" /> &#8211; old produce. Until you bring in the ninth year&#8217;s produce,<n id="2" /> you may eat old produce.

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;&#8216;If your brother becomes impoverished and sells some of his property, his near redeemer is to come to you and redeem what his brother sold.<n id="1" />

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;&#8216;As for your male and female slaves<n id="1" /> who may belong to you &#8211; you may buy male and female slaves from the nations all around you.<n id="2" />

You may give them as inheritance to your children after you to possess as property. You may enslave them perpetually. However, as for your brothers the Israelites, no man may rule over his brother harshly.<n id="1" />p>

but if only a few years remain<n id="1" /> until the jubilee, he must calculate for himself in keeping with the remaining years and refund it for his redemption.

because the Israelites are my own servants;<n id="1" /> they are my servants whom I brought out from the land of Egypt. I am the <sc>Lordsc> your God.p>

I will set my face against you. You will be struck down before your enemies, those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when there is no one pursuing you.p>

Your strength will be used up in vain, your land will not give its yield, and the trees of the land<n id="1" /> will not produce their fruit.p>
