Leviticus 25:47-55 - Redeeming A Poor Man

⁴⁷ " 'And if [the] alien or [the] temporary resident [who are] with you {prosper}, but your countryman [who is] with him becomes poor and he is sold to an alien, a temporary resident [who is] with you, or to a descendant of an alien's clan, ⁴⁸ after he is sold redemption shall be for him; one of his brothers may redeem him, ⁴⁹ or his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or {one of} {his close relatives} from his clan may redeem him; or [if] {he prospers}, he may redeem himself. ⁵⁰ And he shall calculate with his buyer from the year of {his selling himself} until the Jubilee; and the value of his selling shall be according to the number of years--it shall be with him like a hired worker's days. ⁵¹ If [there are] still many years, {in keeping with them} he shall restore his redemption {in proportion to his purchase price}. ⁵² And if [there are] a few years left until the Year of Jubilee, then he shall calculate for himself; he shall restore his redemption {according to the number of his years}. ⁵³ He shall be with him {as a yearly hired worker}; he shall not rule over him with ruthlessness {in your sight}. ⁵⁴ And if he is not redeemed by [any of] these [ways], then he and his sons with him shall go out in the Year of Jubilee. ⁵⁵ Indeed, the {Israelites} [are] servants for me; they [are] my servants whom I brought out from the land of Egypt. I [am] Yahweh your God.'"
