Leviticus 25:48 · BSB
The verses around it, from Leviticus 25.
44 Your menservants and maidservants shall come from the nations around you, from whom you may purchase them.
45 You may also purchase them from the foreigners residing among you or their clans living among you who are born in your land. These may become your property.
46 You may leave them to your sons after you to inherit as property; you can make them slaves for life. But as for your brothers, the Israelites, no man may rule harshly over his brother.
47 If a foreigner residing among you prospers, but your countryman dwelling near him becomes destitute and sells himself to the foreigner or to a member of his clan,
48 he retains the right of redemption after he has sold himself. One of his brothers may redeem him:
49 either his uncle or cousin or any close relative from his clan may redeem him. Or if he prospers, he may redeem himself.
50 He and his purchaser will then count the time from the year he sold himself up to the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale will be determined by the number of years, based on the daily wages of a hired hand.
51 If many years remain, he must pay for his redemption in proportion to his purchase price.
52 If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, he is to calculate and pay his redemption according to his remaining years.
