Exodus 21 :: Webster's Bible (WEB)

Exo 21:1

Exo 21:1Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.

Exo 21:2

Exo 21:2If thou shalt buy a Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall depart free for nothing.

Exo 21:3

Exo 21:3If he came in by himself, he shall depart by himself: if he was married, then his wife shall depart with him.

Exo 21:4

Exo 21:4If his master hath given him a wife, and she hath borne him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall depart by himself.

Exo 21:5

Exo 21:5And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not depart free:

Exo 21:6

Exo 21:6Then his master shall bring him to the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or to the door-post: and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.

Exo 21:7

Exo 21:7And if a man shall sell his daughter to be a maid-servant, she shall not depart as the men-servants do.

Exo 21:8

Exo 21:8If she shall not please her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her to a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.

Exo 21:9

Exo 21:9And if he hath betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.

Exo 21:10

Exo 21:10If he shall take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage shall he not diminish.

Exo 21:11

Exo 21:11And if he shall not perform these three to her, then shall she depart free without money.

Exo 21:20

Exo 21:20And if a man shall smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he shall die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.

Exo 21:21Notwithstanding, if he shall continue a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his money.

Exo 21:22

Exo 21:23And if any mischief shall follow, then thou shalt give life for life,

Exo 21:29

Exo 21:29But if the ox was accustomed to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not restrained him, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
