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.
