New Testament

Exodus 21:7-13 New King James Version (NKJV)

7. “And if a man sells his daughter to be a female slave, she shall not go out as the male slaves do.

8. If she does not please her master, who has betrothed her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9. And if he has betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her according to the custom of daughters.

10. If he takes another wife, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marriage rights.

11. And if he does not do these three for her, then she shall go out free, without paying money.

12. “He who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death.

13. However, if he did not lie in wait, but God delivered him into his hand, then I will appoint for you a place where he may flee.
