Leviticus 25:39

In context

37Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.

38I the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.

39And if thy brother by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

40as an hired servant, as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:

41And shall he depart from thee, he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
