Leviticus 25:23-55

23‘The landH776, moreover, shall not be soldH4376 permanentlyH6783, becauseH3588 1the landH776 is Mine; for 2you are only strangersH1616 and residentsH8453 with Me. 24So for everyH3605 3pieceH776 of your propertyH272, you are to provideH5414 for the redemptionH1353 of the landH776.

25‘4IfH3588 a fellowH251 countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 that he sellsH4376 part of his propertyH272, then his closestH7138 5redeemerH1350 is to comeH935 and buyH1350 backH1350 whatH4465 his relativeH251 has soldH4465. 26Or inH3588 caseH3588 someoneH376 hasH1961 noH3808 redeemerH1350, but 6recoversH3027H5381 to findH4672 sufficientH1767 meansH1767 for its redemptionH1353, 277then 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 8he 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 9revertH3318, so that 10he 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 afterH4480 its saleH4465; his rightH1353 ofH1353 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 11revertH3318 in the jubileeH3104. 31The housesH1004 of the villagesH2691, however, whichH834 haveH369 noH369 surroundingH5439 wallH2346, shall be regardedH2803 12as openH776 fieldsH7704; they haveH1961 redemptionH1353 rightsH1353 and 13revertH3318 in the jubileeH3104. 32As for the 14citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881, the LevitesH3881 haveH1961 a permanentH5769 rightH1353 ofH1353 redemptionH1353 for the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 which are their possessionH272. 33WhatH834, therefore, 15belongsH4480 to the LevitesH3881 may be redeemedH1350, and a houseH1004 saleH4465 16in the cityH5892 of this possessionH272 17revertsH3318 in the jubileeH3104, becauseH3588 the housesH1004 of the citiesH5892 of the LevitesH3881 are their possessionH272 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 3418But pastureH4054 fieldsH7704 of their citiesH5892 shall not be soldH4376, for that is their permanentH5769 possessionH272.

35‘19Now inH3588 caseH3588 a countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 poorH4134 and his 20meansH3027 amongH5973 you falterH4131, then you are to sustainH2388 him, like a strangerH1616 or a residentH8453, so that he may liveH2421 with you. 3621Do not takeH3947 22any kind of interestH5392H8636 from him, but 23fearH3372 your GodH430, so that your countrymanH251 may liveH2421 with you. 37You shall not giveH5414 him your silverH3701 at interestH5392, norH3808 your foodH400 24for profitH4768. 3825I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, whoH834 broughtH3318 you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 to giveH5414 you the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and 26to be your GodH430.

39‘Now 27ifH3588 a countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 so poorH4134 withH5973 regardH5973 toH5973 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 workerH7916, 28as if he were a foreignH8453 residentH8453; he shall serveH5647 with you up to the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104. 41He shall then leaveH3318 you, he and his sonsH1121 with him, and shall goH7725 backH7725 to his familyH4940, so that he may returnH7725 to the propertyH272 of his forefathersH1. 42For they are My servantsH5650 whomH834 I broughtH3318 outH3318 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714; they are not to be soldH4376 in a slaveH5650 saleH4466. 4329You shall not ruleH7287 over him with 30severityH6531, 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. 45You may alsoH1571 acquireH7069 them from the sonsH1121 of the foreignH8453 residentsH8453 who resideH1481 amongH5973 you, and from their familiesH4940 whoH834 are with you, whomH834 they will have producedH3205 in your landH776; they also may becomeH1961 your possessionH272. 46You may also passH5157 them onH5157 asH5157 anH5157 inheritanceH5157 to your sonsH1121 afterH310 you, to receiveH3423 as a possessionH272; you can useH5647 them asH5647 permanentH5769 slavesH5647. 31But in respect to your countrymenH251, the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, you shall not ruleH7287 with 32severityH6531 over oneH376 anotherH251.

47‘Now ifH3588 the 33meansH3027 of a strangerH1616 or of a foreignH8453 residentH8453 with you becomesH5381 sufficientH5381, and a countrymanH251 of yours becomesH4134 poorH4134 inH5973 relationH5973 toH5973 him and sellsH4376 himself to a strangerH1616 whoH8453 isH8453 residingH8453 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 relativesH7607H1320 from his familyH4940 may redeemH1350 him; orH176 3435if 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 calculated. It is like the daysH3117 of a hiredH7916 workerH7916 that he will be with him. 51IfH518 there are stillH5750 manyH7227 yearsH8141 remaining, 36he shall refundH7725 part of his purchaseH4736 priceH3701 in proportionH6310 to them for his own redemptionH1353; 52but 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. 53He shall be with him like a workerH7916 hiredH7916 yearH8141 by yearH8141; 37he shall not ruleH7287 over him with 38severityH6531 in your sightH5869. 54Even ifH518 he is not redeemedH1350 by 39theseH428 meansH428, 40he shall still leaveH3318 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 outH3318 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714. I am the LordH3068 your GodH430.
