37 Do not lend a poor Israelite money with interest or lend food at a profit.
38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the land of Egypt to give you Canaan’s land and to be your God.
39 If one of your fellow Israelites faces financial difficulty with you and sells themselves to you, you must not make him work as a slave.
40 Instead, they will be like a hired laborer or foreign guest to you. They will work for you until the Jubilee year,
41 at which point the poor Israelite along with their children will be released from you. They can return to their extended family and to their family property.
42 You must do this because these people are my servants—I brought them out of Egypt’s land. They must not be sold as slaves.
43 You will not harshly rule over them but must fear your God.
