Exodus 21:4 YLT

²  'When thou buyest a Hebrew servant -- six years he doth serve, and in the seventh he goeth out as a freeman for nought;

³  if by himself he cometh in, by himself he goeth out; if he 'is' owner of a wife, then his wife hath gone out with him;

⁴  if his lord give to him a wife, and she hath borne to him sons or daughters -- the wife and her children are her lord's, and he goeth out by himself.

⁵  'And if the servant really say: I have loved my lord, my wife, and my sons -- I do not go out free;

⁶  then hath his lord brought him nigh unto God, and hath brought him nigh unto the door, or unto the side-post, and his lord hath bored his ear with an awl, and he hath served him -- to the age.
