47“ ‘And if the alien orp the temporary resident who are with youq prosper,r buts your countrymant who is with him becomes poor and he is sold to an alien, a temporary resident who is with you, or to a descendant of an alien’s clan, 48after he is sold redemption shall be for him; one of his brothers may redeem him, 49or his uncle or his uncle’s son may redeem him, or one ofu his close relativesv from his clan may redeem him; or if he prospers,w he may redeem himself. 50And he shall calculate with his buyer from the year of his selling himselfx until the Jubilee; and the value of his selling shall be according to the number of years—it shall be with him likey a hired worker’s days. 51If there are still many years, in keeping with themz he shall restore his redemption in proportion to his purchase price.a 52And if there are a few years left until the Year of Jubilee, thenb he shall calculate for himself; he shall restore his redemption according to the number of his years.c 53He shall be with him as a yearly hired worker;d he shall not rule over him with ruthlessness in youre sight.f 54And if he is not redeemed byg any of these ways,h theni he and his sons with him shall go out in the Year of Jubilee.
