Leviticus 25:44 in Context — Leviticus 25
42 Car ce sont mes serviteurs, que j’ai fait sortir du pays d’Égypte; ils ne seront point vendus comme on vend des esclaves.
43 Tu ne domineras point sur lui avec dureté, et tu craindras ton Dieu.
44 C’est des nations qui vous entourent que tu prendras ton esclave et ta servante qui t’appartiendront, c’est d’elles que vous achèterez l’esclave et la servante.
45 Vous pourrez aussi en acheter des enfants des étrangers qui demeureront chez toi, et de leurs familles qu’ils engendreront dans votre pays; et ils seront votre propriété.
46 Vous les laisserez en héritage à vos enfants après vous, comme une propriété; vous les garderez comme esclaves à perpétuité. Mais à l’égard de vos frères, les enfants d’Israël, aucun de vous ne dominera avec dureté sur son frère.
