Jubilee Bible

Leviticus 25:35-44 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

35. And if thy brother becomes poor and comes unto thee, then thou shalt receive him; as a stranger, or a sojourner, he shall live with thee.

36. Take thou no usury of him, or increase; but thou shalt have the fear of thy God, and thy brother shall live with thee.

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

38. I AM your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.

39. And when thy brother becomes poor, being with thee, and if he should sell himself unto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serve as a slave.

40. As a hired servant and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee and shall serve thee unto the year of jubilee.

41. Then he shall depart free from thy house, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he be restored.

42. For they belong to me, I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as slaves.

43. Thou shalt not rule over him with rigor, but shalt fear thy God.

44. Both thy menslaves and thy maidslaves, which thou shalt have, shall be of the Gentiles that are round about you; of them shall ye buy slaves.
