Exodus 21:7 in Context — Exodus 21

5 Si l’esclave dit: J’aime mon maître, ma femme et mes enfants, je ne veux pas sortir libre,

6 alors son maître le conduira devant Dieu, et le fera approcher de la porte ou du poteau, et son maître lui percera l’oreille avec un poinçon, et l’esclave sera pour toujours à son service.

7 Si un homme vend sa fille pour être esclave, elle ne sortira point comme sortent les esclaves.

8 Si elle déplaît à son maître, qui s’était proposé de la prendre pour femme, il facilitera son rachat; mais il n’aura pas le pouvoir de la vendre à des étrangers, après lui avoir été infidèle.

9 S’il la destine à son fils, il agira envers elle selon le droit des filles.
