"'When a stranger and a sojourner waxeth rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him waxeth poor and sell himself unto the stranger that dwelleth by thee or to any of the stranger's kin:

after that he is sold he may be redeemed again: one of his brethren may buy him out;

whether it be his uncle or his uncle's son, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his kindred: either if his hand can get so much he may be loosed.

And he shall reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold in unto the trumpet year, and the price of his buying shall be according unto the number of years, and he shall be with him as a hired servant.

If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again for his deliverance, of the money that he was sold for.

And I will send peace in your land, that ye shall sleep, and no man shall make you afraid. And I will rid evil beasts out of your land, and there shall no sword go throughout your land.

For I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that ye should not be their bondmen, and I broke the bows of your yokes, and made you go upright.

or if ye shall despise mine ordinances, either if your souls refuse my laws, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but shall break mine covenant:

then I will do this again unto you: I will visit you with vexations, swelling, and fevers, that shall make your eyes dazzle; and with sorrows of heart. And ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

And I will set my face against you and ye shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall reign over you, and ye shall flee when no man followeth you.

I will send in wild beasts upon you, which shall rob you of your children and destroy your cattle, and make you so few in number that your highways shall grow unto a wilderness.

I will send a sword upon you, that shall avenge my covenant with you. And when ye are fled unto your cities, I will send the pestilence among you: ye shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

And when I have broken the staff of your bread: that ten wives shall bake your bread in one oven and men shall deliver you your bread again by weight, then shall ye eat and shall not be satisfied.

so that ye shall eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters.

"'And I will bring the land unto a wilderness: so that your enemies which dwell therein shall wonder at it.

And as long as it lieth void it shall rest, for that it could not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt therein.

"'And upon them that are left alive of you, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the land of their enemies: so that the sound of a leaf that falleth, shall chase them and they shall flee as though they fled a sword, and shall fall no man following them.

And they that are left of you, shall pine away in their unrighteousness, even in their enemies' land, and also in the misdeeds of their fathers shall they consume.

And they shall confess their misdeeds and the misdeeds of their fathers; in their trespasses which they have trespassed against me, and for that also that they have walked contrary unto me.

And yet, for all that; when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not so cast them away nor my soul shall not so abhor them, that I will utterly destroy them and break mine covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God.

And the man that is sixty and above, shall be valued at fifteen sicles, and the woman at ten.

If he be too poor so to be set, then let him come before the priest: and let the priest value him, according as the hand of him that vowed is able to get.

"'If it be of the beasts of which men bring an offering unto the LORD: all that any man giveth of such unto the LORD, shall be holy.

And if he will buy it again, let him give the fifth part more to that it was set at.

If he that sanctified it will redeem his house, let him give the fifth part of the money that it was judged at thereto, and it shall be his.

If a man hallow a piece of his inherited land unto the LORD, it shall be set according to that it beareth. If it bear a homer of barley, it shall be set at fifty sicles of silver.

But and if he hallow his field after the trumpet year, the priest shall reckon the price with him according to the years that remain unto the trumpet year, and thereafter it shall be lower set.

"'If he that sanctified the field will redeem it again, let him put the fifth part of the price that it was set at thereunto,

then the priest shall reckon with him what it is worth unto the trumpet year, and he shall give the price that it is set at the same day, and it shall be holy unto the LORD.

"'But the firstborn of the beasts that pertain unto the LORD, may no man sanctify: whether it be ox or sheep, for they are the LORD's already.

Notwithstanding, no dedicated thing that a man dedicateth unto the LORD, of all his goods - whether it be man or beast or land of his inheritance - shall be sold or redeemed: for all dedicated things are most holy unto the LORD.

No dedicated thing therefore that is dedicated of man, may be redeemed, but must needs die.

"'And the tithes of oxen and sheep and of all that goeth under the herdsman's keeping, shall be holy tithes unto the LORD.

Men shall not look if it be good or bad nor shall change it. If any man change it then both it and that it was changed withal, shall be holy and may not be redeemed.'"

But thou shalt appoint the Levites unto the habitation of witness, and to all the apparel thereof and unto all that longeth thereto. For they shall bear the tabernacle and all the ordinance thereof, and they shall minister it and shall pitch their tents round about it.

But the Levites shall pitch round about the habitation of witness, that there fall no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel, and the Levites shall wait upon the habitation of witness."

"Behold, I have taken the Levites, from among the children of Israel, for all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel: so that the Levites shall be mine.

Because all the firstborn are mine - for the same day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast, and mine they shall be: for I am the LORD."

and this bitter cursing water go into the bowels of thee, that thy womb burst and thy thigh rot. And the wife shall say: Amen, Amen.

And when the cursing water is in her that it is bitter,

And when he hath made her drink the water, if she be defiled and have trespassed against her husband, then shall the cursing water go into her and be so bitter, that her womb shall burst and her thigh shall rot, and she shall be a curse among her people.
