Leviticus 25:47-49

Good News Translation

⁴⁷ Suppose a foreigner living with you becomes rich, while some Israelites become poor and sell themselves as slaves to that foreigner or to a member of that foreigner's family. ⁴⁸ After they are sold, they still have the right to be bought back. A brother ⁴⁹ or an uncle or a cousin or another close relative may buy them back; or if they themselves earn enough, they may buy their own freedom.
