27 The yoke and harness will bow the neck;and for a wicked slave, punishment in the stocks.
28 Force him to work that he be not idle,
29 for idleness teaches much mischief.
30 Put him to work, as is fitting for him;and if he does not obey, load him with chains.But never lord it over any human being,and do nothing unjust.
31 If you have but one slave, treat him like yourself,for you have acquired him with your life’s blood;If you have but one slave, deal with him as a brother,for you need him as you need your life.
32 If you mistreat him and he runs away,
33 in what direction will you look for him?
