Deuteronomy 15:12-14

Expanded Bible

Letting Slaves Go Free

¹² If one of your own ·people [relatives; ^Lbrothers] ·sells himself [or is sold] to you as a slave, whether it is a Hebrew man or woman, that person will serve you for six years [Lev. 25:39; Neh. 5:4–5]. But in the seventh year you must let the slave go free. ¹³ When you let slaves go, don’t send them away ·without anything [empty-handed]. ¹⁴ ·Give them [Provide/Outfit them with] some of your flock, your grain, and your wine, giving to them as the Lord has ·given to [^Lblessed] you.
