Exodus 21:1-11

Exodus 21:1-11

1
These are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
2
If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve thee; in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3
With what raiment he came in, with the like let him go out: if having a wife, his wife also shall go out with him.
4
But if his master gave him a wife, and she hath borne sons and daughters; the woman and her children shall be her master's: but he himself shall go out with his raiment.
5
And if the servant shall say: I love my master and my wife and children, I will not go out free:
6
His master shall bring him to the gods, and he shall be set to the door and the posts, and he shall bore his ear through with an awl: and he shall be his servant for ever.
7
If any man sell his daughter to be a servant, she shall not go out as bondwomen are wont to go out.
8
If she displease the eyes of her master to whom she was delivered, he shall let her go: but he shall have no power to sell her to a foreign nation, if he despise her.
9
But if he have betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
10
And if he take another wife for him, he shall provide her a marriage, and raiment, neither shall he refuse the price of her chastity.
11
If he do not these three things, she shall go out free without money.
