Leviticus 25:39 in Context — Leviticus 25
37 Tu ne lui prêteras point ton argent à intérêt, et tu ne lui prêteras point tes vivres à usure.
38 Je suis l’Éternel, ton Dieu, qui vous ai fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, pour vous donner le pays de Canaan, pour être votre Dieu.
39 Si ton frère devient pauvre près de toi, et qu’il se vende à toi, tu ne lui imposeras point le travail d’un esclave.
40 Il sera chez toi comme un mercenaire, comme celui qui y demeure; il sera à ton service jusqu’à l’année du jubilé.
41 Il sortira alors de chez toi, lui et ses enfants avec lui, et il retournera dans sa famille, dans la propriété de ses pères.
