Leviticus 25:47-55

⁴⁷If a soiourner or a stranger dwelling by thee get riches, and thy brother by him be impouerished, and sell him selfe vnto the stranger or soiourner dwelling by thee, or to the stocke of the strangers familie,

⁴⁸After that he is solde, he may be bought out: one of his brethren may bye him out,

⁴⁹Or his vncle, or his vncles sonne may bye him out, or any of the kindred of his flesh among his familie, may redeeme him: either if he can get so much, he may bye him selfe out.

⁵⁰Then he shall recken with his byer from the yeere that he was solde to him, vnto the yere of Iubile: and the money of his sale shalbe according to the number of yeeres: according to the time of an hyred seruant shall he be with him.

⁵¹If there be many yeeres behind, according to them he shall giue againe for his deliuerance, of the money that he was bought for.

⁵²If there remaine but fewe yeeres vnto the yeere of Iubile, then he shall count with him, and according to his yeeres giue againe for his redemption.

⁵³He shalbe with him yeere by yeere as an hired seruant: he shall not rule cruelly ouer him in thy sight.

⁵⁴And if he be not redeemed thus, he shall go out in the yeere of Iubile, he, and his children with him.

⁵⁵For vnto me the children of Israel are seruants: they are my seruants, who I haue brought out of the land of Egypt: I am ye Lord your God.
