Leviticus 25:37-43

English Standard Version

³⁷^(A)You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. ³⁸^(B)I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

³⁹^(C)“If your brother becomes poor beside you and sells himself to you, you shall not make him serve as a slave: ⁴⁰he shall be with you as a hired worker and as a sojourner. He shall serve with you until the year of the jubilee. ⁴¹^(D)Then he shall go out from you, ^(E)he and his children with him, and go back to his own clan and return ^(F)to the possession of his fathers. ⁴²For they are ^(G)my servants,^[a] whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as slaves. ⁴³^(H)You shall not rule over him ^(I)ruthlessly but ^(J)shall fear your God.
