KJV ¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

VULC ¹ Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen in monte Sinai, dicens :

KJV ² Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.

VULC ² Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos : Quando ingressi fueritis terram quam ego dabo vobis, sabbatizes sabbatum Domino.

KJV ³ Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;

VULC ³ Sex annis seres agrum tuum, et sex annis putabis vineam tuam, colligesque fructus ejus :

KJV ⁴ But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

VULC ⁴ septimo autem anno sabbatum erit terræ, requietionis Domini : agrum non seres, et vineam non putabis.

KJV ⁵ That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year of rest unto the land.

VULC ⁵ Quæ sponte gignet humus, non metes : et uvas primitiarum tuarum non colliges quasi vindemiam : annus enim requietionis terræ est :

KJV ⁶ And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for thee, and for thy servant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy stranger that sojourneth with thee.

VULC ⁶ sed erunt vobis in cibum, tibi et servo tuo, ancillæ et mercenario tuo, et advenæ qui peregrinantur apud te :

KJV ⁷ And for thy cattle, and for the beast that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be meat.

VULC ⁷ jumentis tuis et pecoribus, omnia quæ nascuntur præbebunt cibum.

KJV ⁸ And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.

VULC ⁸ Numerabis quoque tibi septem hebdomadas annorum, id est, septies septem, quæ simul faciunt annos quadraginta novem :

KJV ⁹ Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.

VULC ⁹ et clanges buccina mense septimo, decima die mensis, propitiationis tempore, in universa terra vestra.

KJV ¹⁰ And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

VULC ¹⁰ Sanctificabisque annum quinquagesimum, et vocabis remissionem cunctis habitatoribus terræ tuæ : ipse est enim jubilæus. Revertetur homo ad possessionem suam, et unusquisque rediet ad familiam pristinam :

KJV ¹¹ A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.

VULC ¹¹ quia jubilæus est, et quinquagesimus annus. Non seretis neque metetis sponte in agro nascentia, et primitias vindemiæ non colligetis,

KJV ¹² For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

VULC ¹² ob sanctificationem jubilæi : sed statim oblata comedetis.

KJV ¹³ In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.

VULC ¹³ Anno jubilæi, redient omnes ad possessiones suas.

KJV ¹⁴ And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

VULC ¹⁴ Quando vendes quippiam civi tuo, vel emes ab eo, ne contristes fratrem tuum, sed juxta numerum annorum jubilæi emes ab eo,

KJV ¹⁵ According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:

VULC ¹⁵ et juxta supputationem frugum vendet tibi.

KJV ¹⁶ According to the multitude of years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the price of it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits doth he sell unto thee.

VULC ¹⁶ Quanto plures anni remanserint post jubilæum, tanto crescet et pretium : et quanto minus temporis numeraveris, tanto minoris et emptio constabit : tempus enim frugum vendet tibi.

KJV ¹⁷ Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God:for I am the LORD your God.

VULC ¹⁷ Nolite affligere contribules vestros, sed timeat unusquisque Deum suum, quia ego Dominus Deus vester.

KJV ¹⁸ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

VULC ¹⁸ Facite præcepta mea, et judicia custodite, et implete ea : ut habitare possitis in terra absque ullo pavore,

KJV ¹⁹ And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

VULC ¹⁹ et gignat vobis humus fructus suos, quibus vescamini usque ad saturitatem, nullius impetum formidantes.

KJV ²⁰ And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

VULC ²⁰ Quod si dixeritis : Quid comedemus anno septimo, si non severimus, neque collegerimus fruges nostras ?

KJV ²¹ Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

VULC ²¹ dabo benedictionem meam vobis anno sexto, et faciet fructus trium annorum :

KJV ²² And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come in ye shall eat of the old store.

VULC ²² seretisque anno octavo, et comedetis veteres fruges usque ad nonum annum : donec nova nascantur, edetis vetera.

KJV ²³ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine, for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

VULC ²³ Terra quoque non vendetur in perpetuum, quia mea est, et vos advenæ et coloni mei estis :

KJV ²⁴ And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

VULC ²⁴ unde cuncta regio possessionis vestræ sub redemptionis conditione vendetur.

KJV ²⁵ If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away some of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.

VULC ²⁵ Si attenuatus frater tuus vendiderit possessiunculam suam, et voluerit propinquus ejus, potest redimere quod ille vendiderat.

KJV ²⁶ And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

VULC ²⁶ Sin autem non habuerit proximum, et ipse pretium ad redimendum potuerit invenire,

KJV ²⁷ Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

VULC ²⁷ computabuntur fructus ex eo tempore quo vendidit : et quod reliquum est, reddet emptori, sicque recipiet possessionem suam.

KJV ²⁸ But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

VULC ²⁸ Quod si non invenerit manus ejus ut reddat pretium, habebit emptor quod emerat, usque ad annum jubilæum. In ipso enim omnis venditio redibit ad dominum et ad possessorem pristinum.

KJV ²⁹ And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.

VULC ²⁹ Qui vendiderit domum intra urbis muros, habebit licentiam redimendi, donec unus impleatur annus.

KJV ³⁰ And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.

VULC ³⁰ Si non redemerit, et anni circulus fuerit evolutus, emptor possidebit eam, et posteri ejus in perpetuum, et redimi non poterit, etiam in jubilæo.

KJV ³¹ But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.

VULC ³¹ Sin autem in villa domus, quæ muros non habet, agrorum jure vendetur : si ante redempta non fuerit, in jubilæo revertetur ad dominum.

KJV ³² Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.

VULC ³² Ædes Levitarum quæ in urbibus sunt, semper possunt redimi :

KJV ³³ And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubile: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

VULC ³³ si redemptæ non fuerint, in jubilæo revertentur ad dominos, quia domus urbium Levitarum pro possessionibus sunt inter filios Israël.

KJV ³⁴ But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

VULC ³⁴ Suburbana autem eorum non veneant, quia possessio sempiterna est.

KJV ³⁵ And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.

VULC ³⁵ Si attenuatus fuerit frater tuus, et infirmus manu, et susceperis eum quasi advenam et peregrinum, et vixerit tecum,

KJV ³⁶ Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.

VULC ³⁶ ne accipias usuras ab eo, nec amplius quam dedisti : time Deum tuum, ut vivere possit frater tuus apud te.

KJV ³⁷ Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.

VULC ³⁷ Pecuniam tuam non dabis ei ad usuram, et frugum superabundantiam non exiges.

KJV ³⁸ I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

VULC ³⁸ Ego Dominus Deus vester, qui eduxi vos de terra Ægypti, ut darem vobis terram Chanaan, et essem vester Deus.

KJV ³⁹ And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

VULC ³⁹ Si paupertate compulsus vendiderit se tibi frater tuus, non eum opprimes servitute famulorum,

KJV ⁴⁰ But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile.

VULC ⁴⁰ sed quasi mercenarius et colonus erit : usque ad annum jubilæum operabitur apud te,

KJV ⁴¹ And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

VULC ⁴¹ et postea egredietur cum liberis suis, et revertetur ad cognationem et ad possessionem patrum suorum.

KJV ⁴² For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

VULC ⁴² Mei enim servi sunt, et ego eduxi eos de terra Ægypti : non veneant conditione servorum :

KJV ⁴³ Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.

VULC ⁴³ ne affligas eum per potentiam, sed metuito Deum tuum.

KJV ⁴⁴ Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.

VULC ⁴⁴ Servus et ancilla sint vobis de nationibus quæ in circuitu vestro sunt :

KJV ⁴⁵ Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.

VULC ⁴⁵ et de advenis qui peregrinantur apud vos, vel qui ex his nati fuerint in terra vestra, hos habebitis famulos :

KJV ⁴⁶ And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.

VULC ⁴⁶ et hæreditario jure transmittetis ad posteros, ac possidebitis in æternum : fratres autem vestros filios Israël ne opprimatis per potentiam.

KJV ⁴⁷ And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger or sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger's family:

VULC ⁴⁷ Si invaluerit apud vos manus advenæ atque peregrini, et attenuatus frater tuus vendiderit se ei, aut cuiquam de stirpe ejus :

KJV ⁴⁸ After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him:

VULC ⁴⁸ post venditionem potest redimi. Qui voluerit ex fratribus suis, redimet eum,

KJV ⁴⁹ Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.

VULC ⁴⁹ et patruus, et patruelis, et consanguineus, et affinis. Sin autem et ipse potuerit, redimet se,

KJV ⁵⁰ And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

VULC ⁵⁰ supputatis dumtaxat annis a tempore venditionis suæ usque ad annum jubilæum : et pecunia, qua venditus fuerat, juxta annorum numerum, et rationem mercenarii supputata.

KJV ⁵¹ If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

VULC ⁵¹ Si plures fuerint anni qui remanent usque ad jubilæum, secundum hos reddet et pretium :

KJV ⁵² And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.

VULC ⁵² si pauci, ponet rationem cum eo juxta annorum numerum, et reddet emptori quod reliquum est annorum,

KJV ⁵³ And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.

VULC ⁵³ quibus ante servivit mercedibus imputatis : non affliget eum violenter in conspectu tuo.

KJV ⁵⁴ And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubile, both he, and his children with him.

VULC ⁵⁴ Quod si per hæc redimi non potuerit, anno jubilæo egredietur cum liberis suis.

KJV ⁵⁵ For unto me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

VULC ⁵⁵ Mei enim sunt servi filii Israël, quos eduxi de terra Ægypti.
