Exodus 21:5-6
5But 1if the slave plainly says, ‘I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not leave as a free man,’ 6then his master shall bring him to 2God, then he shall bring him to the door or the doorpost. And his master shall pierce his ear with an 3awl; and he shall serve him permanently.
