Exodus 21:7-9

7“Now 1ifH3588 a manH376 sellsH4376 his daughterH1323 as a femaleH519 slaveH519, she is not to 2goH3318 freeH3318 3as the maleH5650 slavesH5650 4doH3318.

8IfH518 she is 5displeasingH7451 in the eyesH5869 of her masterH113 6whoH834 designatedH3259 her for himself, then he shall let her be redeemedH6299. He does not haveH4910 authorityH4910 to sellH4376 her to a foreignH5237 peopleH5971, because of his 7unfairnessH898 to her.

9And ifH518 he designatesH3259 her for his sonH1121, he shall dealH6213 with her according to the customH4941 of daughtersH1323.
