36If you lend money to him, do not charge any kind of interest DOU. Instead, show by what you do that you revere me, your God, and help that man, in order that he will be able to continue to live among you.
37If you lend him money, do not charge interest; and if you sell food to him, charge him only what you paid for it; do not get a profit from it.
38Do not forget that I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of Egypt to be your God and to give you the land of Canaan, and I did not charge you for doing that.
39If one of your fellow Israelis becomes poor and sells himself to you, do not force him to work like a slave.
40Treat him like you treat workers that you hire or like someone who is living on your land temporarily. But he must work for you only until the Year of Celebration.
41During that year, you must free him, and he will go back to his family and to the property that his ancestors owned.
42It is as though you Israelis are my slaves/servants, whom I freed from being slaves in Egypt. So none of you should be sold to become slaves.
