5 But if the servant say thus, I love my master, my wife and my children, I will not go out free,
6 Then his master shall bring him unto the [a]Judges, and set him to the [b]door, or to the post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him [c]forever.
7 Likewise if a man [d]sell his daughter to be a servant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
