1. "These are the judgments which you shall place before them:
2. If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you; in the seventh, he shall depart freely, without charge.
3. With whatever clothing he arrived, with the like let him depart. If he has a wife, his wife also shall depart, at the same time.
4. But if his lord gave him a wife, and she has borne sons and daughters, the woman and her children shall belong to her lord. Yet still, he himself will go out with his clothing.
5. And if the servant will say, 'I love my lord, and my wife and children, I will not depart freely,'
6. then his lord shall make an offering for him to the heavens, and it shall be applied to the door and the posts, and he will pierce his ear with an awl. And he shall be his servant in perpetuity.
7. If anyone sells his daughter to be a servant, she shall not depart as a female servant is accustomed to go out.
