Leviticus 25:47-55
47IfH3588 a foreignerH1616 residingH8453 among youH5973 prospersH5381H3027, but your countrymanH251 dwelling near himH5973 becomes destituteH4134 and sells himselfH4376 to the foreignerH1616 orH176 to a memberH6133 ofH1616 his clanH4940, 48he retainsH1961 the right of redemptionH1353 afterH310 he has sold himselfH4376. OneH259 of his brothersH251 may redeem himH1350: 49eitherH176 his uncleH1730 orH176 cousinH1121H1730 orH176 any close relativeH7607H1320 from his clanH4940 may redeem himH1350. Or ifH176 he prospersH5381H3027, he may redeem himselfH1350.
50He andH5973 his purchaserH7069 will then count the timeH2803 from the yearH8141 he soldH4376 himself up toH5704 the YearH8141 of JubileeH3104. The priceH3701 of his saleH4465 will beH1961 determined by the numberH4557 of yearsH8141, based onH1961 the dailyH3117 wages of a hired handH7916. 51IfH518 manyH7227 yearsH8141 remainH5750, he must payH7725 for his redemptionH1353 in proportion toH6310 his purchaseH4736 priceH3701. 52IfH518 only a fewH4592 yearsH8141 remainH7604 untilH5704 the YearH8141 of JubileeH3104, he is to calculateH2803 and payH7725 his redemptionH1353 according toH6310 his remaining yearsH8141. 53He shall be treatedH1961H5973 like a man hiredH7916 from yearH8141 to yearH8141, but a foreign owner must notH3808 rule over himH7287 harshlyH6531 in your sightH5869.
54Even ifH518 he is notH3808 redeemedH1350 in any of these waysH428, heH1931 and his childrenH1121H5973 shall be releasedH3318 in the YearH8141 of JubileeH3104. 55ForH3588 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 are My servantsH5650. TheyH1992 are My servantsH5650, whomH834 I broughtH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. IH589 am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
