29And if a man sell a dwelling house in a town surrounded with a wall, he may redeem it within the full year of the sale of it; within that time shall be its redemption.
30But if it be not repurchased when the whole year is completed, the house that is in the walled town shall belong absolutely to him who bought it for his generations; it shall not go out at the Jubilee.
31But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be accounted as the field of the land; they may be redeemed, or shall go out at the Jubilee.
32And the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their inheritance, may be always redeemed by the Levites (or, be a perpetual redemption for the Levites).
33And (so of him) who purchaseth of the Levites, the purchased house in the city of their possession shall go out at the Jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their inheritance among the sons of Israel.
34But a field in the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is an everlasting possession for them.
35And if thy brother hath become poor, and his band waver with thee, then thou shalt strengthen him, and he shall be a guest and a sojourner with thee.
36Thou shalt not take from him any usuries, nor interest (increase), but shalt fear thy God, and let thy brother live with thee.
37Thou shalt not give him thy money for usury, nor thy food for increase.
38I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the land of Mizraim, to give you the land of Kenaan, and to be your God.
39And if thy brother hath become poor with thee, and hath sold himself to thee, thou shalt not make him do the works of slaves,
40But as a hired man and an inmate shall he be with thee; until the year of Jubilee shall he serve with thee:
41Then shall he go out from being with thee, he and his children with him, and return to his family and to the inheritance of his fathers.
42For they are My servants, whom I brought out from the land of Mizraim; they shall not be sold as the selling of bondmen.
43Thou shalt not make him serve with rigour, but shalt fear thy God.
44Thy bondmen and thy handmaids thou shalt have from the Gentiles who are about thee; from them thou mayest obtain bondmen and handmaids.
45And also from the sons of the uncircumcised strangers who sojourn with you, of them and of their children who are with you which are born in the land, you may obtain a possession,
46And may make them an inheritance for your children after you to inherit them for a possession to serve them perpetually; but among your brethren the sons of Israel no man shall make his brother labour with hardness.
47And if the hand of an uncircumcised sojourner with thee wax strong, and thy brother with thee become poor and sell himself to the uncircumcised sojourner with thee, or to an Aramite of the race of the stranger,
48after that he is sold he may have redemption; one of his brethren may redeem him.
49Either his father’s brother, or the son of his father’s brother, may redeem him; or anyone of kin to the flesh of his family may redeem him; or if his hand be able, he may redeem himself.
50And he shall reckon with his purchaser from the year that he sold himself, unto the year of Jubilee, and the money of his payment shall be according to the number of the years, according to the days of an hireling shall it be with him.
51If the years be yet many, according to them shall he give the price of his redemption;
52Or if but few years remain unto the year of Jubilee, he shall compute with him, and according to the years shall give for his redemption.
53As a hireling year by year shall he be with him; he shall not work him with rigour before thine eyes.
54But if he be not redeemed within those years, he shall go out at the year of Jubilee, he and his children with him.
55For the sons of Israel are My servants; they are servants whom I brought out of the land of Mizraim: I am the Lord your God.
