[25:35] "'If your brother has become poor, and his hand can't support him among you; then you shall uphold him. As a stranger and a sojourner he shall live with you. [25:36] Take no interest from him or profit, but fear your God; that your brother may live among you. [25:37] You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. [25:38] I am Yahweh your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
[25:39] "'If your brother has grown poor among you, and sells himself to you; you shall not make him to serve as a slave. [25:40] As a hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with you; he shall serve with you until the Year of Jubilee: [25:41] then he shall go out from you, he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers. [25:42] For they are my servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. They shall not be sold as slaves. [25:43] You shall not rule over him with harshness, but shall fear your God.
[25:44] "'As for your male and your female slaves, whom you may have; of the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves. [25:45] Moreover of the children of the strangers who sojourn among you, of them you may buy, and of their families who are with you, which they have conceived in your land; and they will be your property. [25:46] You may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession; of them may you take your slaves forever: but over your brothers the children of Israel you shall not rule, one over another, with harshness.
[25:47] "'If a stranger or sojourner with you becomes rich, and your brother beside him has grown poor, and sells himself to the stranger or foreigner living among you, or to a member of the stranger's family; [25:48] after he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brothers may redeem him; [25:49] or his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any who is a close relative to him of his family may redeem him; or if he has grown rich, he may redeem himself. [25:50] He shall reckon with him who bought him from the year that he sold himself to him to the Year of Jubilee: and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of years; according to the time of a hired servant shall he be with him. [25:51] If there are yet many years, according to them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for. [25:52] If there remain but a few years to the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according to his years of service he shall give back the price of his redemption. [25:53] As a servant hired year by year shall he be with him: he shall not rule with harshness over him in your sight. [25:54] If he isn't redeemed by these means, then he shall be released in the Year of Jubilee, he, and his children with him. [25:55] For to me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
[26:1] "'You shall make for yourselves no idols, neither shall you raise up an engraved image or a pillar, neither shall you place any figured stone in your land, to bow down to it: for I am Yahweh your God.
[26:2] "'You shall keep my Sabbaths, and have reverence for my sanctuary. I am Yahweh.
[26:3] "'If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; [26:4] then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. [26:5] Your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time; and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
[26:6] "'I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one will make you afraid; and I will remove evil animals out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land. [26:7] You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. [26:8] Five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
[26:9] "'I will have respect for you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you. [26:10] You shall eat old store long kept, and you shall move out the old because of the new. [26:11] I will set my tent among you: and my soul won't abhor you. [26:12] I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people. [26:13] I am Yahweh your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their slaves; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.
[26:14] "'But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments; [26:15] and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhors my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant; [26:16] I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and you will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it. [26:17] I will set my face against you, and you will be struck before your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you will flee when no one pursues you.
