Exodus 21:11

Verse 11 of 36. The 21st of 40 chapters in Exodus, in The Law.

7“If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go out as the male servants do.

8If she doesn’t please her master, who has married her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9If he marries her to his son, he shall deal with her as a daughter.

10If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights.

11If he doesn’t do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.

12“One who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death,

13but not if it is unintentional, but God allows it to happen; then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee.

14If a man schemes and comes presumptuously on his neighbor to kill him, you shall take him from my altar, that he may die.

15“Anyone who attacks his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.
