29And if a man shall sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold: within a full year may he redeem it.
30And if it shall not be redeemed within the space of a full year, 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 of the villages which have no walls around them, shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
32Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.
33And if a man shall purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession shall go out in the year of jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold, for it is their perpetual possession.
35And if thy brother shall have become poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he may be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.
36Take thou no interest of him, or increase; but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.
37Thou shalt not give him thy money upon interest, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
38I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
39And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee shall have become poor, and be sold to thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bond servant:
40But as a hired servant, and as a sojourner he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee to the year of jubilee.
41And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers shall he return.
42For they are my servants, which I brought out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as bond-men.
43Thou shalt not rule over him with rigor, but shalt fear thy God.
44Both thy bond-men, and thy bond-maids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are around you; of them shall ye buy bond-men and bond-maids.
45Moreover of the children of the strangers that sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession, they shall be your bond-men for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigor.
47And if a sojourner or a stranger shall become rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him shall become poor, and sell himself to the stranger or sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger's family:
48After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him:
49Either his uncle, or his uncle's son may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin to him of his family, may redeem him; or if he is able, he may redeem himself.
50And he shall reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold to him, to the year of jubilee: and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of years, according to the time of a hired servant shall it be with him.
51If there shall be yet many years behind , according to them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
52And if there shall remain but few years to the year of jubilee, then he shall count with him, and according to his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.
53And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigor over him in thy sight.
54And if he shall not be redeemed in these years , then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, both he, and his children with him.
55For to me the children of Israel are servants, they are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
