32. As for the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities which they possess, the Levites must have a perpetual right of redemption.
33. Whatever someone among the Levites might redeem – the sale of a house which is his property in a city – must revert in the jubilee, because the houses of the cities of the Levites are their property in the midst of the Israelites.
34. Moreover, the open field areas of their cities must not be sold, because that is their perpetual possession.
35. “‘If your brother becomes impoverished and is indebted to you, you must support him; he must live with you like a foreign resident.
36. Do not take interest or profit from him, but you must fear your God and your brother must live with you.
37. You must not lend him your money at interest and you must not sell him food for profit.
38. I am the Lord your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan – to be your God.
39. “‘If your brother becomes impoverished with regard to you so that he sells himself to you, you must not subject him to slave service.
40. He must be with you as a hired worker, as a resident foreigner; he must serve with you until the year of jubilee,
41. but then he may go free, he and his children with him, and may return to his family and to the property of his ancestors.
42. Since they are my servants whom I brought out from the land of Egypt, they must not be sold in a slave sale.
43. You must not rule over him harshly, but you must fear your God.
44. “‘As for your male and female slaves who may belong to you – you may buy male and female slaves from the nations all around you.
45. Also you may buy slaves from the children of the foreigners who reside with you, and from their families that are with you, whom they have fathered in your land, they may become your property.
