1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

1 וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה בְּהַ֥ר סִינַ֖י לֵאמֹֽר׃

2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I will give you, the land shall celebrate a sabbath to Jehovah.

2 דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם כִּ֤י תָבֹ֙אוּ֙ אֶל־הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲנִ֖י נֹתֵ֣ן לָכֶ֑ם וְשָׁבְתָ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ שַׁבָּ֖ת לַיהוָֽה׃

3 Six years shalt thou sow thy field, and six years shalt thou prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof,

3 שֵׁ֤שׁ שָׁנִים֙ תִּזְרַ֣ע שָׂדֶ֔ךָ וְשֵׁ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים תִּזְמֹ֣ר כַּרְמֶ֑ךָ וְאָסַפְתָּ֖ אֶת־תְּבוּאָתָֽהּ׃

4 but in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest for the land, a sabbath to Jehovah. Thy field shalt thou not sow, and thy vineyard shalt thou not prune.

4 וּבַשָּׁנָ֣ה הַשְּׁבִיעִ֗ת שַׁבַּ֤ת שַׁבָּתֹון֙ יִהְיֶ֣ה לָאָ֔רֶץ שַׁבָּ֖ת לַיהוָ֑ה שָֽׂדְךָ֙ לֹ֣א תִזְרָ֔ע וְכַרְמְךָ֖ לֹ֥א תִזְמֹֽר׃

5 That which springeth up from the scattered seed of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thine undressed vines thou shalt not gather: a year of rest shall it be for the land.

5 אֵ֣ת סְפִ֤יחַ קְצִֽירְךָ֙ לֹ֣א תִקְצֹ֔ור וְאֶת־עִנְּבֵ֥י נְזִירֶ֖ךָ לֹ֣א תִבְצֹ֑ר שְׁנַ֥ת שַׁבָּתֹ֖ון יִהְיֶ֥ה לָאָֽרֶץ׃

6 And the sabbath of the land shall be for food for you, for thee, and for thy bondman, and for thy handmaid, and for thy hired servant, and for him that dwelleth as a sojourner with thee, and for thy cattle,

6 וְ֠הָיְתָה שַׁבַּ֨ת הָאָ֤רֶץ לָכֶם֙ לְאָכְלָ֔ה לְךָ֖ וּלְעַבְדְּךָ֣ וְלַאֲמָתֶ֑ךָ וְלִשְׂכִֽירְךָ֙ וּלְתֹושָׁ֣בְךָ֔ הַגָּרִ֖ים עִמָּֽךְ׃

7 and for the beasts that are in thy land: all the produce thereof shall be for food.

7 וְלִ֨בְהֶמְתְּךָ֔ וְלַֽחַיָּ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּאַרְצֶ֑ךָ תִּהְיֶ֥ה כָל־תְּבוּאָתָ֖הּ לֶאֱכֹֽל׃

8 And thou shalt count seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; so that the days of the seven sabbaths of years be unto thee forty-nine years.

8 וְסָפַרְתָּ֣ לְךָ֗ בַע שַׁבְּתֹ֣ת שָׁנִ֔ים שֶׁ֥בַע שָׁנִ֖ים שֶׁ֣בַע פְּעָמִ֑ים וְהָי֣וּ לְךָ֗ יְמֵי֙ בַע שַׁבְּתֹ֣ת הַשָּׁנִ֔ים תֵּ֥שַׁע וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים שָׁנָֽה׃

9 Then shalt thou cause the loud sound of the trumpet to go forth in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; on the day of atonement shall ye cause the trumpet to go forth throughout your land.

9 וְהַֽעֲבַרְתָּ֞ שֹׁופַ֤ר תְּרוּעָה֙ בַּחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִעִ֔י בֶּעָשֹׂ֖ור לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ בְּיֹום֙ הַכִּפֻּרִ֔ים תַּעֲבִ֥ירוּ שֹׁופָ֖ר בְּכָל־אַרְצְכֶֽם׃

10 And ye shall hallow the year of the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty in the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; a [year of] jubilee shall it be unto you, and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family;

10 וְקִדַּשְׁתֶּ֗ם אֵ֣ת שְׁנַ֤ת הַחֲמִשִּׁים֙ שָׁנָ֔ה וּקְרָאתֶ֥ם דְּרֹ֛ור בָּאָ֖רֶץ לְכָל־יֹשְׁבֶ֑יהָ יֹובֵ֥ל הִוא֙ תִּהְיֶ֣ה לָכֶ֔ם וְשַׁבְתֶּ֗ם אִ֚ישׁ אֶל־אֲחֻזָּתֹ֔ו וְאִ֥ישׁ אֶל־מִשְׁפַּחְתֹּ֖ו תָּשֻֽׁבוּ׃

11 a year of jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap its aftergrowth, nor gather [the fruit of] its undressed vines.

11 יֹובֵ֣ל הִ֗וא שְׁנַ֛ת הַחֲמִשִּׁ֥ים שָׁנָ֖ה תִּהְיֶ֣ה לָכֶ֑ם לֹ֣א תִזְרָ֔עוּ וְלֹ֤א תִקְצְרוּ֙ אֶת־סְפִיחֶ֔יהָ וְלֹ֥א תִבְצְר֖וּ אֶת־נְזִרֶֽיהָ׃

12 For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; out of the field shall ye eat its produce.

12 כִּ֚י יֹובֵ֣ל הִ֔וא קֹ֖דֶשׁ תִּהְיֶ֣ה לָכֶ֑ם מִן־הַ֨שָּׂדֶ֔ה תֹּאכְל֖וּ אֶת־תְּבוּאָתָֽהּ׃

13 In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

13 בִּשְׁנַ֥ת הַיֹּובֵ֖ל הַזֹּ֑את תָּשֻׁ֕בוּ אִ֖ישׁ אֶל־אֲחֻזָּתֹֽו׃

14 And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another.

14 וְכִֽי־תִמְכְּר֤וּ מִמְכָּר֙ לַעֲמִיתֶ֔ךָ אֹ֥ו קָנֹ֖ה מִיַּ֣ד עֲמִיתֶ֑ךָ אַל־תֹּונ֖וּ אִ֥ישׁ אֶת־אָחִֽיו׃

15 According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of the produce, he shall sell unto thee.

15 בְּמִסְפַּ֤ר שָׁנִים֙ אַחַ֣ר הַיֹּובֵ֔ל תִּקְנֶ֖ה מֵאֵ֣ת עֲמִיתֶ֑ךָ בְּמִסְפַּ֥ר שְׁנֵֽי־תְבוּאֹ֖ת יִמְכָּר־לָֽךְ׃

16 According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the number of crops that he selleth unto thee.

16 לְפִ֣י׀ רֹ֣ב הַשָּׁנִ֗ים תַּרְבֶּה֙ מִקְנָתֹ֔ו וּלְפִי֙ מְעֹ֣ט הַשָּׁנִ֔ים תַּמְעִ֖יט מִקְנָתֹ֑ו כִּ֚י מִסְפַּ֣ר תְּבוּאֹ֔ת ה֥וּא מֹכֵ֖ר לָֽךְ׃

17 And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.

17 וְלֹ֤א תֹונוּ֙ אִ֣ישׁ אֶת־עֲמִיתֹ֔ו וְיָרֵ֖אתָ מֵֽאֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ כִּ֛י אֲנִ֥י יְהֹוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃

18 And ye shall do my statutes, and observe mine ordinances and do them: thus shall ye dwell in your land securely.

18 וַעֲשִׂיתֶם֙ אֶת־חֻקֹּתַ֔י וְאֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַ֥י תִּשְׁמְר֖וּ וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֣ם אֹתָ֑ם וִֽישַׁבְתֶּ֥ם עַל־הָאָ֖רֶץ לָבֶֽטַח׃

19 And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat and be satisfied, and dwell therein securely.

19 וְנָתְנָ֤ה הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ פִּרְיָ֔הּ וַאֲכַלְתֶּ֖ם לָשֹׂ֑בַע וִֽישַׁבְתֶּ֥ם לָבֶ֖טַח עָלֶֽיהָ׃

20 And if ye say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our produce;

20 וְכִ֣י תֹאמְר֔וּ מַה־נֹּאכַ֖ל³ בַּשָּׁנָ֣ה הַשְּׁבִיעִ֑ת הֵ֚ן לֹ֣א נִזְרָ֔ע וְלֹ֥א נֶאֱסֹ֖ף אֶת־תְּבוּאָתֵֽנוּ׃

21 then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, that it may bring forth produce for three years;

21 וְצִוִּ֤יתִי אֶת־בִּרְכָתִי֙ לָכֶ֔ם בַּשָּׁנָ֖ה הַשִּׁשִּׁ֑ית וְעָשָׂת֙ אֶת־הַתְּבוּאָ֔ה לִשְׁלֹ֖שׁ הַשָּׁנִֽים׃

22 and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat of the old fruit until the ninth year; until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old.

22 וּזְרַעְתֶּ֗ם אֵ֚ת הַשָּׁנָ֣ה הַשְּׁמִינִ֔ת וַאֲכַלְתֶּ֖ם מִן־הַתְּבוּאָ֣ה יָשָׁ֑ן עַ֣ד׀ הַשָּׁנָ֣ה הַתְּשִׁיעִ֗ת עַד־בֹּוא֙ תְּב֣וּאָתָ֔הּ תֹּאכְל֖וּ יָשָֽׁן׃

23 And the land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

23 וְהָאָ֗רֶץ לֹ֤א תִמָּכֵר֙ לִצְמִתֻ֔ת כִּי־לִ֖י הָאָ֑רֶץ כִּֽי־גֵרִ֧ים וְתֹושָׁבִ֛ים אַתֶּ֖ם עִמָּדִֽי׃

24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

24 וּבְכֹ֖ל אֶ֣רֶץ אֲחֻזַּתְכֶ֑ם גְּאֻלָּ֖ה תִּתְּנ֥וּ לָאָֽרֶץ׃

25 If thy brother grow poor, and sell of his possession, then shall his redeemer, his nearest relation, come and redeem that which his brother sold.

25 כִּֽי־יָמ֣וּךְ אָחִ֔יךָ וּמָכַ֖ר מֵאֲחֻזָּתֹ֑ו וּבָ֤א גֹֽאֲלֹו֙ הַקָּרֹ֣ב אֵלָ֔יו וְגָאַ֕ל אֵ֖ת מִמְכַּ֥ר אָחִֽיו׃

26 And if the man have no one having right of redemption, and his hand have acquired and found what sufficeth for its redemption,

26 וְאִ֕ישׁ כִּ֛י לֹ֥א יִֽהְיֶה־לֹּ֖ו גֹּאֵ֑ל וְהִשִּׂ֣יגָה יָדֹ֔ו וּמָצָ֖א כְּדֵ֥י גְאֻלָּתֹֽו׃

27 then shall he reckon the years since the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so return unto his possession.

27 וְחִשַּׁב֙ אֶת־שְׁנֵ֣י מִמְכָּרֹ֔ו וְהֵשִׁיב֙ אֶת־הָ֣עֹדֵ֔ף לָאִ֖ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֣ר מָֽכַר־לֹ֑ו וְשָׁ֖ב לַאֲחֻזָּתֹֽו׃

28 And if his hand have not found what sufficeth for him to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of the purchaser, until the year of jubilee; and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

28 וְאִ֨ם לֹֽא־מָֽצְאָ֜ה יָדֹ֗ו דֵּי֮ הָשִׁ֣יב לֹו֒ וְהָיָ֣ה מִמְכָּרֹ֗ו בְּיַד֙ הַקֹּנֶ֣ה אֹתֹ֔ו עַ֖ד שְׁנַ֣ת הַיֹּובֵ֑ל וְיָצָא֙ בַּיֹּבֵ֔ל וְשָׁ֖ב לַאֲחֻזָּתֹֽו׃

29 And if any one sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he shall have the right of redemption up to the end of the year of the sale thereof; for a full year shall he have the right of redemption.

29 וְאִ֗ישׁ כִּֽי־יִמְכֹּ֤ר בֵּית־מֹושַׁב֙ עִ֣יר חֹומָ֔ה וְהָיְתָה֙ גְּאֻלָּתֹ֔ו עַד־תֹּ֖ם שְׁנַ֣ת מִמְכָּרֹ֑ו יָמִ֖ים תִּהְיֶ֥ה גְאֻלָּתֹֽו׃

30 But if it be not redeemed until a whole year is complete, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee.

30 וְאִ֣ם לֹֽא־יִגָּאֵ֗ל עַד־מְלֹ֣את לֹו֮ שָׁנָ֣ה תְמִימָה֒ וְ֠קָם הַבַּ֨יִת אֲשֶׁר־בָּעִ֜יר אֲשֶׁר־ לֹא לֹ֣ו חֹמָ֗ה לַצְּמִיתֻ֛ת לַקֹּנֶ֥ה אֹתֹ֖ו לְדֹרֹתָ֑יו לֹ֥א יֵצֵ֖א בַּיֹּבֵֽל׃

31 But the houses in villages that have no wall round about them shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.

31 וּבָתֵּ֣י הַחֲצֵרִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֵין־לָהֶ֤ם חֹמָה֙ סָבִ֔יב עַל־שְׂדֵ֥ה הָאָ֖רֶץ יֵחָשֵׁ֑ב גְּאֻלָּה֙ תִּהְיֶה־לֹּ֔ו וּבַיֹּבֵ֖ל יֵצֵֽא׃

32 But as to the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual right of redemption.

32 וְעָרֵי֙ הַלְוִיִּ֔ם בָּתֵּ֖י עָרֵ֣י אֲחֻזָּתָ֑ם גְּאֻלַּ֥ת עֹולָ֖ם תִּהְיֶ֥ה לַלְוִיִּֽם׃

33 And if any one redeem from one of the Levites, then the house that was sold, in the city of his possession, shall go out in the jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

33 וַאֲשֶׁ֤ר יִגְאַל֙ מִן־הַלְוִיִּ֔ם וְיָצָ֧א מִמְכַּר־בַּ֛יִת וְעִ֥יר אֲחֻזָּתֹ֖ו בַּיֹּבֵ֑ל כִּ֣י בָתֵּ֞י עָרֵ֣י הַלְוִיִּ֗ם הִ֚וא אֲחֻזָּתָ֔ם בְּתֹ֖וךְ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

34 And the field of the suburbs of their cities shall not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

34 וּֽשְׂדֵ֛ה מִגְרַ֥שׁ עָרֵיהֶ֖ם לֹ֣א יִמָּכֵ֑ר כִּֽי־אֲחֻזַּ֥ת עֹולָ֛ם ה֖וּא לָהֶֽם׃

35 And if thy brother grow poor, and he be fallen into decay beside thee, then thou shalt relieve him, [be he] stranger or sojourner, that he may live beside thee.

35 וְכִֽי־יָמ֣וּךְ אָחִ֔יךָ וּמָ֥טָה יָדֹ֖ו עִמָּ֑ךְ וְהֶֽחֱזַ֣קְתָּ בֹּ֔ו גֵּ֧ר וְתֹושָׁ֛ב וָחַ֖י עִמָּֽךְ׃

36 Thou shalt take no usury nor increase of him; and thou shalt fear thy God; that thy brother may live beside thee.

36 אַל־תִּקַּ֤ח מֵֽאִתֹּו֙ נֶ֣שֶׁךְ וְתַרְבִּ֔ית וְיָרֵ֖אתָ מֵֽאֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וְחֵ֥י אָחִ֖יךָ עִמָּֽךְ׃

37 Thy money shalt thou not give him upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.

37 אֶ֨ת־כַּסְפְּךָ֔ לֹֽא־תִתֵּ֥ן לֹ֖ו בְּנֶ֑שֶׁךְ וּבְמַרְבִּ֖ית לֹא־תִתֵּ֥ן אָכְלֶֽךָ׃

38 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.

38 אֲנִ֗י יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹ֣הֵיכֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־הֹוצֵ֥אתִי אֶתְכֶ֖ם מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם לָתֵ֤ת לָכֶם֙ אֶת־אֶ֣רֶץ כְּנַ֔עַן לִהְיֹ֥ות לָכֶ֖ם לֵאלֹהִֽים׃

39 And if thy brother grow poor beside thee, and be sold unto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

39 וְכִֽי־יָמ֥וּךְ אָחִ֛יךָ עִמָּ֖ךְ וְנִמְכַּר־לָ֑ךְ לֹא־תַעֲבֹ֥ד בֹּ֖ו עֲבֹ֥דַת עָֽבֶד׃

40 as a hired servant, as a sojourner, shall he be with thee; until the year of jubilee shall he serve thee.

40 כְּשָׂכִ֥יר כְּתֹושָׁ֖ב יִהְיֶ֣ה עִמָּ֑ךְ עַד־שְׁנַ֥ת הַיֹּבֵ֖ל יַעֲבֹ֥ד עִמָּֽךְ׃

41 Then shall he depart from thee, he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

41 וְיָצָא֙ מֵֽעִמָּ֔ךְ ה֖וּא וּבָנָ֣יו עִמֹּ֑ו וְשָׁב֙ אֶל־מִשְׁפַּחְתֹּ֔ו וְאֶל־אֲחֻזַּ֥ת אֲבֹתָ֖יו יָשֽׁוּב׃

42 For they are my bondmen, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as [men] sell bondmen.

42 כִּֽי־עֲבָדַ֣י הֵ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־הֹוצֵ֥אתִי אֹתָ֖ם מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם לֹ֥א יִמָּכְר֖וּ מִמְכֶּ֥רֶת עָֽבֶד׃

43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; and thou shalt fear thy God.

43 לֹא־תִרְדֶּ֥ה בֹ֖ו בְּפָ֑רֶךְ וְיָרֵ֖אתָ מֵאֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃

44 And as for thy bondman and thy handmaid whom thou shalt have -- of the nations that are round about you, of them shall ye buy bondmen and handmaids.

44 וְעַבְדְּךָ֥ וַאֲמָתְךָ֖ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִהְיוּ־לָ֑ךְ מֵאֵ֣ת הַגֹּויִ֗ם אֲשֶׁר֙ סְבִיבֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם מֵהֶ֥ם תִּקְנ֖וּ עֶ֥בֶד וְאָמָֽה׃

45 Moreover of the children of them that dwell as sojourners with you, of them may ye buy, and of their family that is with you, which they beget in your land, and they shall be your possession.

45 וְ֠גַם מִבְּנֵ֨י הַתֹּושָׁבִ֜ים הַגָּרִ֤ים עִמָּכֶם֙ מֵהֶ֣ם תִּקְנ֔וּ וּמִמִּשְׁפַּחְתָּם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עִמָּכֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר הֹולִ֖ידוּ בְּאַרְצְכֶ֑ם וְהָי֥וּ לָכֶ֖ם לַֽאֲחֻזָּֽה׃

46 And ye shall leave them as an inheritance to your children after you, to inherit them as a possession: these may ye make your bondmen for ever; but as for your brethren, the children of Israel, ye shall not rule over one another with rigour.

46 וְהִתְנַחֲלְתֶּ֨ם¹ אֹתָ֜ם לִבְנֵיכֶ֤ם אַחֲרֵיכֶם֙ לָרֶ֣שֶׁת אֲחֻזָּ֔ה לְעֹלָ֖ם בָּהֶ֣ם תַּעֲבֹ֑דוּ וּבְאַ֨חֵיכֶ֤ם בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אִ֣ישׁ בְּאָחִ֔יו לֹא־תִרְדֶּ֥ה בֹ֖ו בְּפָֽרֶךְ׃

47 And if a stranger or sojourner become wealthy beside thee, and thy brother beside him grow poor, and sell himself unto the stranger, who is settled by thee, or to a scion of the stranger's family,

47 וְכִ֣י תַשִּׂ֗יג יַ֣ד גֵּ֤ר וְתֹושָׁב֙ עִמָּ֔ךְ וּמָ֥ךְ אָחִ֖יךָ עִמֹּ֑ו וְנִמְכַּ֗ר לְגֵ֤ר תֹּושָׁב֙ עִמָּ֔ךְ אֹ֥ו לְעֵ֖קֶר מִשְׁפַּ֥חַת גֵּֽר׃

48 after that he is sold there shall be right of redemption for him; one of his brethren may redeem him.

48 אַחֲרֵ֣י נִמְכַּ֔ר גְּאֻלָּ֖ה תִּהְיֶה־לֹּ֑ו אֶחָ֥ד מֵאֶחָ֖יו יִגְאָלֶֽנּוּ׃

49 Either his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or one of his next relations of his family may redeem him; or if his means be sufficient, he may redeem himself.

49 אֹו־דֹדֹ֞ו אֹ֤ו בֶן־דֹּדֹו֙ יִגְאָלֶ֔נּוּ אֹֽו־מִשְּׁאֵ֧ר בְּשָׂרֹ֛ו מִמִּשְׁפַּחְתֹּ֖ו יִגְאָלֶ֑נּוּ אֹֽו־הִשִּׂ֥יגָה יָדֹ֖ו וְנִגְאָֽל׃

50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of the years, according to the days of a hired servant shall he be with him.

50 וְחִשַּׁב֙ עִם־קֹנֵ֔הוּ מִשְּׁנַת֙ הִמָּ֣כְרֹו לֹ֔ו עַ֖ד שְׁנַ֣ת הַיֹּבֵ֑ל וְהָיָ֞ה כֶּ֤סֶף מִמְכָּרֹו֙ בְּמִסְפַּ֣ר שָׁנִ֔ים כִּימֵ֥י שָׂכִ֖יר יִהְיֶ֥ה עִמֹּֽו׃

51 If there are yet many years, according unto them shall he return his redemption [money] out of the money that he was bought for;

51 אִם־עֹ֥וד רַבֹּ֖ות בַּשָּׁנִ֑ים לְפִיהֶן֙ יָשִׁ֣יב גְּאֻלָּתֹ֔ו מִכֶּ֖סֶף מִקְנָתֹֽו׃

52 and if there remain but few years unto the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his [remaining] years [of service] shall he give him back his redemption [money].

52 וְאִם־מְעַ֞ט נִשְׁאַ֧ר בַּשָּׁנִ֛ים עַד־שְׁנַ֥ת הַיֹּבֵ֖ל וְחִשַּׁב־לֹ֑ו כְּפִ֣י שָׁנָ֔יו יָשִׁ֖יב אֶת־גְּאֻלָּתֹֽו׃

53 As a hired servant shall he be with him year by year; [his master] shall not rule with rigour over him before thine eyes.

53 כִּשְׂכִ֥יר שָׁנָ֛ה בְּשָׁנָ֖ה יִהְיֶ֣ה עִמֹּ֑ו לֹֽא־יִרְדֶּ֥נּֽוּ³ בְּפֶ֖רֶךְ לְעֵינֶֽיךָ׃

54 And if he be not redeemed in this manner, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, he and his children with him.

54 וְאִם־לֹ֥א יִגָּאֵ֖ל בְּאֵ֑לֶּה וְיָצָא֙ בִּשְׁנַ֣ת הַיֹּבֵ֔ל ה֖וּא וּבָנָ֥יו עִמֹּֽו׃

55 For the children of Israel are servants unto me; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.

55 כִּֽי־לִ֤י בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ עֲבָדִ֔ים עֲבָדַ֣י הֵ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־הֹוצֵ֥אתִי אֹותָ֖ם מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם אֲנִ֖י יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃
