41 And then he shall depart from you—he and his children ^awith him—and shall return to his own family. He shall return to the possession of his fathers.  ‡

44 And as for your male and female slaves whom you may have—from the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.

45 Moreover you may buy ^athe children of the strangers who dwell among you, and their families who are with you, which they beget in your land; and they shall become your property.  ‡
