*'As for your male and your female slaves, whom you may have; of the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.
but every man's servant who is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then shall he eat of it.
Notwithstanding, if he gets up after a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his property.
You shall not rule over him with harshness, but shall fear your God.
Moreover of the children of the strangers who sojourn among you, of them you may buy, and of their families who are with you, which they have conceived in your land; and they will be your property.
