Leviticus 25:35-43

And if thy brother
<0251>
be waxen poor
<04134> (8799)_,
and fallen in decay
<04131> (8804)
with thee
<03027>_;
then thou shalt relieve
<02388> (8689)
him: [yea, though he be] a stranger
<01616>_,
or a sojourner
<08453>_;
that he may live
<02416>
with thee. {fallen...: Heb. his hand faileth} {relieve: Heb. strengthen}
Take
<03947> (8799)
thou no usury
<05392>
of him, or increase
<08636>_:
but fear
<03372> (8804)
thy God
<0430>_;
that thy brother
<0251>
may live
<02416>
with thee.
Thou shalt not give
<05414> (8799)
him thy money
<03701>
upon usury
<05392>_,
nor lend
<05414> (8799)
him thy victuals
<0400>
for increase
<04768>_.
I [am] the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
which brought you forth
<03318> (8689)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
you the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
[and] to be your God
<0430>_.
And if thy brother
<0251>
[that dwelleth] by thee be waxen poor
<04134> (8799)_,
and be sold
<04376> (8738)
unto thee; thou shalt not compel
<05647> (8799)
him to serve
<05656>
as a bondservant
<05650>_:
{compel...: Heb. serve thyself with him with the service, etc}
[But] as an hired servant
<07916>_,
[and] as a sojourner
<08453>_,
he shall be with thee, [and] shall serve
<05647> (8799)
thee unto the year
<08141>
of jubile
<03104>_:
And [then] shall he depart
<03318> (8804)
from thee, [both] he and his children
<01121>
with him, and shall return
<07725> (8804)
unto his own family
<04940>_,
and unto the possession
<0272>
of his fathers
<01>
shall he return
<07725> (8799)_.
For they [are] my servants
<05650>_,
which I brought forth
<03318> (8689)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
they shall not be sold
<04376> (8735)
as
<04466>
bondmen
<05650>_.
{as...: Heb. with the sale of a bondman}
Thou shalt not rule
<07287> (8799)
over him with rigour
<06531>_;
but shalt fear
<03372> (8804)
thy God
<0430>_.
