vw - Deuteronomy:15:12-18

vw@Deuteronomy:15:12 @ If your brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.

vw@Deuteronomy:15:13 @ And when you send him away free from you, you shall not send him away empty;

vw@Deuteronomy:15:14 @ you shall richly adorn him from your flock, from your threshing floor, and from your winepress. From out of whatever Jehovah has blessed you, you shall give to him.

vw@Deuteronomy:15:15 @ You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this thing today.

vw@Deuteronomy:15:16 @ And if it happens that he says to you, I will not go out from you, because he loves you and your household, since it has been good for him with you;

vw@Deuteronomy:15:17 @ then you shall take an awl and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall continue to be your servant. And to your female servant you shall do likewise.

vw@Deuteronomy:15:18 @ It shall not be difficult in your eyes to let him go free from you; for he has served you six years for double the wages of a hired servant. And Jehovah your God will bless you in all that you do.
