03:025:029 And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he
may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year
may he redeem it.
03:025:030 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year,
then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever
to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in
the jubile.
03:025:031 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about
them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be
redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.
03:025:032 Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of
the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.
03:025:033 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was
sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of
jubile: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession
among the children of Israel.
03:025:034 But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold;
for it is their perpetual possession.
03:025:035 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with
thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a
sojourner; that he may live with thee.
03:025:036 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God;
that thy brother may live with thee.
03:025:037 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him
thy victuals for increase.
03:025:038 I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the
land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
03:025:039 And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and
be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
03:025:040 But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with
thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile.
03:025:041 And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children
with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession
of his fathers shall he return.
03:025:042 For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the
land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.
03:025:043 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy
God.
03:025:044 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have,
shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy
bondmen and bondmaids.
03:025:045 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn
among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with
you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
03:025:046 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children
after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen
for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not
rule one over another with rigour.
