And you shall speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When any man curses his God then he shall bear his sin.

And when a man causes a blemish in his neighbor, as he has done, so it shall be done to him;

and you shall make the fiftieth year holy, one year. And you shall proclaim liberty in the land to those living in it; it shall be a jubilee to you. And you shall return every man to his possession; yea, you shall turn back each to his family.

In the year of jubilee you shall return each one to his possession.

And if you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from the hand of your neighbor, you shall not each man oppress his brother.

And you shall not oppress each man his neighbor, and you shall fear your God, for I am Jehovah your God.

If your brother has become poor and has sold his property, then comes one to redeem, a relative of him, and he redeems the thing sold by his brother.

But a man, when there is not one to redeem him, and his own hand has reached out, and he has enough for its redemption,

then he shall count the years since its sale, and shall give back the surplus to the man to whom he sold; and he shall return to his possession.

And if his hand has not found enough to give back to him, then the thing he sold shall be in the hand of him who buys it until the year of jubilee. And it shall go out in the jubilee, and he shall return to his possession.

And when a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then his right of redemption shall be the end of the year of its sale; his right of redemption shall be a year of days.

And if it is not redeemed until a full year is complete, then the house in the walled city shall be established to perpetuity to its buyer, throughout his generations; it shall not go out in the jubilee.

And that which one redeems from the Levites, both the sale of a house, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the jubilee. For the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the sons of Israel.

And when your brother has become poor, and his hand has failed with you, then you shall help him. He shall live with you as an alien and a tenant.

then he shall go out from you, he and his sons with him, and shall return to his family; he shall even return to the possession of his father.

after he has been sold, there is a redemption to him; one of his brothers may redeem him,

or his uncle, or a son of his uncle, may redeem him, or any of his fleshly relations of his family may redeem him. Or, if his own hand has reached out to gain , then he may be redeemed.

And he shall count with his buyer from the year of his being sold to him until the year of jubilee, and the silver of his sale shall be by the number of years. As the days of a hireling, it shall be with him.

If there are yet many years, by mouth he shall give back his redemption, from the silver of his purchase.

And if few are left of the years till the year of jubilee, then he shall count with him according to his years he shall give back his redemption price.
