Leviticus 25:37-43 English Revised Version (ERV)

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

38. I am 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.

39. And if thy brother be waxen poor with thee, and sell himself unto thee; thou shalt not make him to serve as a bondservant:

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

41. then shall he go out 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.

42. For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

43. Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.
