⁴⁷‘And when the hand of a sojourner or settler with thee attaineth riches, and thy brother with him hath become poor, and he hath been sold to a sojourner, a settler with thee, or to the root of the family of a sojourner, ⁴⁸after he hath been sold, there is a right of redemption to him; one of his brethren doth redeem him, ⁴⁹or his uncle, or a son of his uncle, doth redeem him, or any of the relations of his flesh, of his family, doth redeem him, or—his own hand hath attained—then he hath been redeemed.

⁵⁰‘And he hath reckoned with his buyer from the year of his being sold to him till the year of jubilee, and the money of his sale hath been by the number of years; as the days of an hireling it is with him.

⁵¹‘If yet many years, according to them he giveth back his redemption money, from the money of his purchase.

⁵²‘And if few are left of the years till the year of jubilee, then he hath reckoned with him, according to his years he doth give back his redemption money; ⁵³as an hireling, year by year, he is with him, and he doth not rule him with rigour before thine eyes.

⁵⁴‘And if he is not redeemed in these years, then he hath gone out in the year of jubilee, he and his sons with him.
