अथवा आर्यम् आधाय कुल बन्धन आर्याणाम् आपदि, निष्क्रयं च अधिगम्य बालं साहाय्य दातारं वा पूर्वं निष्क्रीणीरन् ॥
But if in order to tide over family troubles, to find money for fines or court decrees, or to recover the (confiscated) household implements, the life of an Arya is mortgaged, they (his kinsmen) shall as soon as possible redeem him (from bondage); and more so if he is a youth or an adult capable of giving help.
