And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

Verse 50 is found in chapter 25 of Leviticus. The legislation concerning foreign servants contrasts with the restrictions applied to Israelites. The chapter concludes by reminding Israel that they belong to God because they were brought out of Egypt, providing the theological basis for limiting permanent slavery within the people.

Und soll mit seinem Käufer rechnen von dem Jahr an, da er sich verkauft hatte, bis aufs Halljahr; und das Geld, darum er sich verkauft hat, soll nach der Zahl der Jahre gerechnet werden, als wäre er die ganze Zeit Tagelöhner bei ihm gewesen.
Y contará con el que lo compró, desde el año que se vendió a él hasta el año del jubileo: y ha de apreciarse el dinero de su venta conforme al número de los años, y se hará con él conforme al tiempo de un criado asalariado.
Il comptera avec celui qui l'a acheté depuis l'année où il s'est vendu jusqu'à l'année du jubilé; et le prix à payer dépendra du nombre d'années, lesquelles seront évaluées comme celles d'un mercenaire.
E faccia ragione col suo comperatore, dall’anno che gli si sarà venduto fino all’anno del Giubileo, e vadano i danari della sua vendita per lo numero degli anni ch’egli avrà servito; stia con lui come a giornate di mercenario.
E acertará com aquele que o comprou, desde o ano que se vendeu a ele até ao ano do jubileu, e o preço da sua venda será conforme o número dos anos; conforme os dias de um diarista estará com ele.
他要跟買主計算,從賣自己的那年起,算到禧年;所賣的價錢要按照年數計算,就是雇工跟買主在一起的日子。
