¹⁰ So you shall consecrate the fiftieth year and ^(A)proclaim ^[a]a release throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, ^[b]and ^(B)each of you shall return to his own property, ^[c]and each of you shall return to his family.

Of Redeeming a Person Who Is Poor

⁴⁷ ‘Now if the ^[a]means of a stranger or of a foreign resident with you becomes sufficient, and a countryman of yours becomes poor in relation to him and sells himself to a stranger who is residing with you, or to the descendants of a stranger’s family, ⁴⁸ then he shall have redemption right after he has been sold. One of his brothers may redeem him, ⁴⁹ or his uncle, or his uncle’s son may redeem him, or one of his blood relatives from his family may redeem him; or ^[b](A)if he prospers, he may redeem himself. ⁵⁰ He then, with his purchaser, shall calculate from the year when he sold himself to him up to the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall correspond to the number of years calculated. It is like the days of a hired worker that he will be with him. ⁵¹ If there are still many years remaining, ^(B)he shall refund part of his purchase price in proportion to them for his own redemption; ⁵² but if few years remain until the year of jubilee, he shall so calculate with him. In proportion to his years he is to refund the amount for his redemption. ⁵³ He shall be with him like a worker hired year by year; ^(C)he shall not rule over him with ^[c]severity in your sight. ⁵⁴ Even if he is not redeemed by ^[d]these means, ^(D)he shall still leave in the year of jubilee, he and his sons with him.
