44Both thy maleH5650 and female slavesH519, which thou shalt have, shall be from the heathenH1471 that are aroundH5439 you; from them shall ye buyH7069 maleH5650 and female slavesH519. 45Moreover of the childrenH1121 of the strangersH8453 that sojournH1481 among you, of them shall ye buyH7069, and of their familiesH4940 that are with you, whom they begatH3205 in your landH776: and they shall be your possessionH272. 46And ye shall take them as an inheritanceH5157 for your childrenH1121 afterH310 you, to inheritH3423 them for a possessionH272; they shall be your slavesH5647 for everH5769: but over your brethrenH251 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, ye shall not ruleH7287 oneH376 over anotherH251 with rigourH6531.1 47And if a sojournerH1616 or a strangerH8453 shall become richH5381 by theeH3027, and thy brotherH251 that dwelleth by him shall become poorH4134, and sellH4376 himself to the strangerH1616 or sojournerH8453 by thee, or to the stockH6133 of the stranger’sH1616 familyH4940:2 48AfterH310 that he is soldH4376 he may be redeemed againH1353; oneH259 of his brethrenH251 may redeemH1350 him: 49Either his uncleH1730, or his uncle’sH1730 sonH1121, may redeemH1350 him, or any that is nearH7607 of kinH1320 to him of his familyH4940 may redeemH1350 him; or if he is ableH5381, he may redeemH1350 himselfH3027. 50And he shall reckonH2803 with him that boughtH7069 him from the yearH8141 that he was soldH4376 to him to the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104: and the priceH3701 of his saleH4465 shall be according to the numberH4557 of yearsH8141, according to the timeH3117 of an hired servantH7916 shall it be with him. 51If there shall be yet manyH7227 yearsH8141 behind, accordingH6310 to them he shall give againH7725 the price of his redemptionH1353 out of the moneyH3701 that he was boughtH4736 for. 52And if there shall remainH7604 but fewH4592 yearsH8141 to the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104, then he shall countH2803 with him, and accordingH6310 to his yearsH8141 shall he give him againH7725 the price of his redemptionH1353. 53And as a yearlyH8141 hired servantH7916 shall he be with him: and the other shall not ruleH7287 with rigourH6531 over him in thy sightH5869. 54And if he shall not be redeemedH1350 in these years, then he shall go outH3318 in the yearH8141 of jubileeH3104, both he, and his childrenH1121 with him.3
