Leviticus 25:35-46 - Kindness For Poor Brothers

35 And if thy brother becomes poor, and his hand fails with thee, then thou shall uphold him; he shall live with thee [as] a stranger and a sojourner. 36 Take thou no interest from him or increase, but fear thy God, that thy brother may live with thee. 37 Thou shall not give him thy money upon interest, nor give him thy food for profit. 38 I am LORD 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 if thy brother becomes poor with thee, and sells himself to thee, thou shall not make him to serve as a bondman. 40 He shall be with thee as a hired servant, and as a sojourner. He shall serve with thee to the year of jubilee. 41 Then he shall go out from thee, he and his sons with him, and shall return to his own family. And he shall return to the possession of his fathers. 42 For they are my servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. They shall not be sold as bondmen. 43 Thou shall not rule over him with rigor, but shall fear thy God. 44 And as for thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, whom thou shall have, from the nations that are round about you, ye shall buy bondmen and bondmaids from them. 45 Moreover of the sons of the strangers who sojourn among you, ye shall buy from them, and from their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land, and they shall be your possession. 46 And ye shall make them an inheritance for your sons after you, to hold for a possession. Ye shall take them your bondmen forever, but over your brothers the sons of Israel ye shall not rule, one over another, with rigor.
