Deuteronomy 15:12-18

12“If your fellow Hebrew—a man or woman—is sold to you and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you are to set him free.

13When you set him free, you are not to send him away empty-handed.

14You are to surely provide for him from your flock and threshing floor and winepress. As Adonai your God has blessed you, you are to give to him.

15You will remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and Adonai your God redeemed you; therefore I am commanding you this thing today.

16“Now if he tells you, ‘I will not go away from you’—because he loves you and your household since he is well off with you—

17then you are to take an awl and put it through his ear to the door, and he will be your servant forever. And to your female slave you are to do the same.

18It should not seem hard to you when you set him free from you, for he has served you six years—double the value of a hired worker. So Adonai your God will bless you in all that you do.
