29And if any one sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he shall have the right of redemption up to the end of the year of the sale thereof; for a full year shall he have the right of redemption.
30But if it be not redeemed until a whole year is complete, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee.
31But the houses in villages that have no wall round about them shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
32But as to the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual right of redemption.
33And if any one redeem from one of the Levites, then the house that was sold, in the city of his possession, shall go out in the jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34And the field of the suburbs of their cities shall not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.
35And if thy brother grow poor, and he be fallen into decay beside thee, then thou shalt relieve him, be he stranger or sojourner, that he may live beside thee.
36Thou shalt take no usury nor increase of him; and thou shalt fear thy God; that thy brother may live beside thee.
37Thy money shalt thou not give him upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
38I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
39And if thy brother grow poor beside thee, and be sold unto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
40as a hired servant, as a sojourner, shall he be with thee; until the year of jubilee shall he serve thee.
41Then shall he depart from thee, he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
42For they are my bondmen, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as men sell bondmen.
43Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; and thou shalt fear thy God.
44And as for thy bondman and thy handmaid whom thou shalt have — of the nations that are round about you, of them shall ye buy bondmen and handmaids.
45Moreover of the children of them that dwell as sojourners with you, of them may ye buy, and of their family that is with you, which they beget in your land, and they shall be your possession.
46And ye shall leave them as an inheritance to your children after you, to inherit them as a possession: these may ye make your bondmen for ever; but as for your brethren, the children of Israel, ye shall not rule over one another with rigour.
47And if a stranger or sojourner become wealthy beside thee, and thy brother beside him grow poor, and sell himself unto the stranger, who is settled by thee, or to a scion of the stranger's family,
48after that he is sold there shall be right of redemption for him; one of his brethren may redeem him.
49Either his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or one of his next relations of his family may redeem him; or if his means be sufficient, he may redeem himself.
50And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of the years, according to the days of a hired servant shall he be with him.
51If there are yet many years, according unto them shall he return his redemption money out of the money that he was bought for;
52and if there remain but few years unto the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his remaining years of service shall he give him back his redemption money.
53As a hired servant shall he be with him year by year; his master shall not rule with rigour over him before thine eyes.
54And if he be not redeemed in this manner, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, he and his children with him.
55For the children of Israel are servants unto me; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
