Bible Verses About Servants: When Israelites not to be treated with rigour

"'If a member of your people has become poor among you and sells himself to you, do not make him do the work of a slave.

Rather, you are to treat him like an employee or a tenant; he will work for you until the year of yovel.

You may also bequeath them to your children to own; from these groups you may take your slaves forever. But as far as your brothers the people of Isra'el are concerned, you are not to treat each other harshly.
