14 Give to them generously from what the Lord has blessed you with—sheep, grain, and wine.
15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and the Lord your God set you free; that is why I am now giving you this command.
16 “But your slave may not want to leave; he may love you and your family and be content to stay.
17 Then take him to the door of your house and there pierce his ear; he will then be your slave for life. Treat your female slave in the same way.
18 Do not be resentful when you set slaves free; after all, they have served you for six years at half the cost of hired servants. Do this, and the Lord your God will bless you in all that you do.
19 “Set aside for the Lord your God all the first-born males of your cattle and sheep; don't use any of these cattle for work and don't shear any of these sheep.
20 Each year you and your family are to eat them in the Lord's presence at the one place of worship.
