"And if¹ ye shall say,ª° What¹ shall we eatª° the seventhª year?ª behold,¹ we shall not¹ sow,ª° nor¹ gather²° in¹¹ our increase:ª ... The landª shall not¹ be soldª° for ever:ª for¹ the landª [is] mine; for¹ ye¹ [are] strangersª and sojournersª with¹ me." {Lev 25:20-23} + "Then¹ shall the landª enjoyª°¹ her sabbaths,ª as long² as¹¹ it lieth desolate,ª° and ye¹ [be] in your enemies'ª° land;ª [even] then¹ shall the landª rest,ª° and enjoyª°¹ her sabbaths.ª ... As long asª¹ it lieth desolateª° it shall rest;ª°¹ because¹ it did not¹ restª° in your sabbaths,ª when ye dweltª° upon¹ it." {Lev 26:34-35} + "The landª also shall be leftª° of¹ them, and shall enjoyª°¹ her sabbaths,ª while she lieth desolateª° without¹ them: and they¹ shall acceptª°¹ of the punishment of their iniquity:ª because,ª even becauseª they despisedª° my judgments,ª and because their soulª abhorredª° my statutes.ª" {Lev 26:43} + "And sixª yearsª thou shalt sowª°¹ thy land,ª and shalt gather²° in¹¹ the fruitsª thereof: ... But the seventhª [year] thou shalt let it restª° and lie²° still;¹ that the poorª of thy peopleª may eat:ª° and what they leaveª the beastsª of the fieldª shall eat.ª° In like manner¹ thou shalt dealª° with thy vineyard,ª [and] with thy oliveyard.ª" {Exd 23:10-11} + "To fulfilª° the wordª of the LORDª by the mouthª of Jeremiah,ª until¹ the landª had enjoyedª°¹ her sabbaths:ª [for] as long asª¹ she lay desolateª° she kept sabbath,ª° to fulfilª° threescore and tenª years.ª" {2Ch 36:21} |
