Leviticus 25:23-55

23‘The landH776, moreover, shall not be soldH4376 permanentlyH6783, for 1the landH776 is Mine; for 2you are but aliensH1616 and sojournersH8453 with Me. 24Thus for everyH3605 3pieceH776 of your propertyH272, you are to provideH5414 for the redemptionH1353 of the landH776.

25‘4IfH3588 a 5fellowH251 countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 he has to sellH4376 part of his propertyH272, then his nearestH7138 kinsmanH1350 is to comeH935 and buyH1350 backH1350 whatH4465 his 6relativeH251 has soldH4465. 26Or in caseH3588 a manH376 hasH1961 noH3808 kinsmanH1350, but so 7recoversH5381 his meansH3027 as to findH4672 sufficientH1767 for its redemptionH1353, 278then he shall calculateH2803 the yearsH8141 since its saleH4465 and refundH7725 the balanceH5736 to the manH376 to whomH834 he soldH4376 it, and so returnH7725 to his propertyH272. 28But ifH518 9he has not foundH4672 sufficientH1767 meansH3027 to getH7725 it backH7725 for himself, then whatH4465 he has soldH4465 shall remainH1961 in the handsH3027 of its purchaserH7069 untilH5704 the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104; but at the jubileeH3104 it shall 10revertH3318, that 11he may returnH7725 to his propertyH272.

29‘Likewise, ifH3588 a manH376 sellsH4376 a dwellingH4186 houseH1004 in a walledH2346 cityH5892, then his redemptionH1353 rightH1353 remainsH1961 valid untilH5704 a fullH8552 yearH8141 from its saleH4465; his rightH1353 of redemptionH1353 lastsH1961 a fullH3117 yearH3117. 30But ifH518 it is not boughtH1350 backH1350 for him withinH5704 the spaceH4390 of a fullH8549 yearH8141, then the houseH1004 that is in the walledH2346 cityH5892 passesH6965 permanentlyH6783 to its purchaserH7069 throughout his generationsH1755; it does not 12revertH3318 in the jubileeH3104. 31The housesH1004 of the villagesH2691, however, whichH834 haveH369 noH369 surroundingH5439 wallH2346 shall be consideredH2803 13as openH776 fieldsH7704; they haveH1961 redemptionH1353 rightsH1353 and 14revertH3318 in the jubileeH3104. 32As for 15citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881, the LevitesH3881 haveH1961 a permanentH5769 rightH1353 of redemptionH1353 for the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 which are their possessionH272. 33WhatH834, therefore, 16belongsH4480 to the LevitesH3881 may be redeemedH1350 and a houseH1004 saleH4465 17in the cityH5892 of this possessionH272 18revertsH3318 in the jubileeH3104, for the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881 are their possessionH272 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 3419But pastureH4054 fieldsH7704 of their citiesH5892 shall not be soldH4376, for that is their perpetualH5769 possessionH272.

35‘20Now in caseH3588 a 21countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 poorH4134 and his 22meansH3027 with regardH5973 to you falterH4131, then you are to sustainH2388 him, like a strangerH1616 or a sojournerH8453, that he may liveH2421 with you. 3623Do not takeH3947 24usuriousH8636 interestH5392 from him, but revereH3372 your GodH430, that your 25countrymanH251 may liveH2421 with you. 37You shall not giveH5414 him your silverH3701 at interestH5392, norH3808 your foodH400 for gainH4768. 3826I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 broughtH3318 you out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 to giveH5414 you the landH776 of CanaanH3667 and 27to be your GodH430.

39‘28IfH3588 a 29countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 with regardH5973 to you that he sellsH4376 himself to you, you shall not subjectH5647 him to a slave’sH5650 serviceH5656. 40He shall be with you as a hiredH7916 manH7916, as 30if he were a sojournerH8453; he shall serveH5647 with you untilH5704 the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104. 41He shall then goH3318 out from you, he and his sonsH1121 with him, and shall goH7725 backH7725 to his familyH4940, that he may returnH7725 to the propertyH272 of his forefathersH1. 42For they are My servantsH5650 whomH834 I broughtH3318 out from the landH776 of EgyptH4714; they are not to be soldH4376 in a slaveH5650 saleH4466. 4331You shall not ruleH7287 over him with severityH6531, but are to revereH3372 your GodH430. 44As for your maleH5650 and femaleH519 slavesH519H5650 whomH834 you may haveH1961--you may acquireH7069 maleH5650 and femaleH519 slavesH519H5650 from the pagan nationsH1471 that are aroundH5439 you. 45Then, tooH1571, it is out of the sonsH1121 of the sojournersH8453 who liveH1481 as aliensH1481 amongH5973 you that you may gainH7069 acquisitionH7069, and out of their familiesH4940 whoH834 are with you, whomH834 they will have 32producedH3205 in your landH776; they also may becomeH1961 your possessionH272. 46You may even bequeathH5157 them to your sonsH1121 afterH310 you, to receiveH3423 as a possessionH272; you can useH5647 them as permanentH5769 slavesH5647. 33But in respect to your 34countrymenH251, the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, you shall not ruleH7287 with severityH6531 over oneH376 anotherH251.

47‘Now ifH3588 the 35meansH3027 of a strangerH1616 or of a sojournerH8453 with you becomesH5381 sufficientH5381, and a 36countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 with regardH5973 to him as to sellH4376 himself to a strangerH1616 who is sojourningH8453 with you, orH176 to the descendantsH6133 of a stranger’sH1616 familyH4940, 48then he shall haveH1961 redemptionH1353 rightH1353 afterH310 he has been soldH4376. OneH259 of his brothersH251 may redeemH1350 him, 49orH176 his uncleH1730, orH176 his uncle’sH1730 sonH1121, may redeemH1350 him, orH176 one of his bloodH7607 relativesH7607 from his familyH4940 may redeemH1350 him; orH176 3738if he prospersH5381, he may redeemH1350 himself. 50He then with his purchaserH7069 shall calculateH2803 from the yearH8141 when he soldH4376 himself to him up to the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104; and the priceH3701 of his saleH4465 shall correspondH1961 to the numberH4557 of yearsH8141. It is like the daysH3117 of a hiredH7916 manH7916 that he shall be with him. 51IfH518 there are stillH5750 manyH7227 yearsH8141, 39he shall refundH7725 part of his purchaseH4736 priceH3701 in proportionH6310 to them for his own redemptionH1353; 52and ifH518 fewH4592 yearsH8141 remainH7604 untilH5704 the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104, he shall so calculateH2803 with him. In proportionH6310 to his yearsH8141 he is to refundH7725 the amount for his redemptionH1353. 53Like a manH7916 hiredH7916 yearH8141 by yearH8141 he shall be with him; 40he shall not ruleH7287 over him with severityH6531 in your sightH5869. 54Even ifH518 he is not redeemedH1350 by 41theseH428 means, 42he shall still goH3318 out in the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104, he and his sonsH1121 with him. 55For the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 are My servantsH5650; they are My servantsH5650 whomH834 I broughtH3318 out from the landH776 of EgyptH4714. I am the LordH3068 your GodH430.
