In context

⁵But if the servant declares, ‘I love my master and my wife and children; I do not want to go free,’

⁶Then his master is to bring him before the judges. And he shall take him to the door or doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he shall serve his master for life.

⁷And if a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as the menservants do.

⁸If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who had designated her for himself, he must allow her to be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, since he has broken faith with her.

⁹And if he chooses her for his son, he must deal with her as with a daughter.
