Shemot 21:4-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

4. If his adon have given him an isha, and to him she gives birth to banim or banot; the isha and her yeledim shall be her adon's, and he shall go out [free] by himself.

5. And if the eved shall plainly say, I love adoni, my isha, and my banim; I will not go out lachafeshi (to the freedom);

6. Then his adon shall bring him unto HaElohim; he shall also bring him to the delet (door), or unto the mezuzah; and his adon shall pierce through his ozen (ear) with a piercing-tool; then he shall serve him l'olam.

7. And if an ish sell his bat to be an amah (maidservant), she shall not go out as the avadim [go free].
