Leviticus 25:35–43

Redemption Rights for Poor Brothers

³⁵‘^aNow if a brother of yours becomes poor and his ¹means with regard to you falter, then you are to sustain him, like a sojourner or a foreign resident, that he may live with you.

³⁶‘^aDo not take ¹usurious interest from him, but fear your God, that your brother may live with you.

³⁷‘You shall not give him your silver at interest nor your food for gain.

³⁸‘^aI am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and ^bto be your God.

³⁹‘^aIf a brother of yours becomes so poor with regard to you that he sells himself to you, you shall not subject him to a slave’s service.

⁴⁰‘He shall be with you as a hired man, as ^aif he were a foreign resident; he shall serve with you until the year of jubilee.

⁴¹‘He shall then go out from you, he and his sons with him, and shall return to his family, that he may return to the possession of the land of his fathers.

⁴²‘For they are My slaves whom I brought out from the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold in a slave sale.

⁴³‘^aYou shall not have dominion over him with brutality, but you shall fear your God.
