The .xxj. Chapter.
These are the laws which thou shalt set1 before them. If thou bye a servant that2 is an hebrew, sixth years he shall serve, and the seventh he shall goo out free paying nothing. If he came alone, he shall goo out alone: If he came married, his wife shall go out with him. ⟨image 132⟩And if his master have given him a wife and she have borne him sons or daughters: then the wife and her children shall be her masters and he shall goo out alone. But and if the servant say I love my master and my wife and my children, I will not goo out free. Then let his master bring him unto the Gods and set3 him to the door or the doorpost, and bore his ear through with a naule, and let him be his servant for ever.
THese are the lawes which thou shalt set1 before thē. Yf thou bye a servaunte that2 is an hebrue, sixte yeres he shall serue, and the seuenth he shall goo out fre paynge nothinge. Yf he came alone, he shall goo out alone: Yf he came maried, his wife shall go out with hī. ⟨image 132⟩
