48

then he shall have redemption right after he has been sold. One of his brothers may redeem him,

49

or his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or one of his blood relatives from his family may redeem him; or if he prospers, he may redeem himself.

50

'He then with his purchaser shall calculate from the year when he sold himself to him up to the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall correspond to the number of years. It is like the days of a hired man that he shall be with him.

51

'If there are still many years, he shall refund part of his purchase price in proportion to them for his own redemption;

52

and if few years remain until the year of jubilee, he shall so calculate with him. In proportion to his years he is to refund the amount for his redemption.

53

'Like a man hired year by year he shall be with him; he shall not rule over him with severity in your sight.
