Jeremías 34

Esto significaba que todo propietario de esclavos debía liberar a sus esclavos hebreos, tanto hombres como mujeres. Nadie debía obligar a sus conciudadanos a seguir siendo esclavos.

Que cada uno dejase su siervo, y cada uno su sierva, hebreo y hebrea, libres; que ninguno usase de los Judíos su hermanos como de siervos.

That every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant, being an Hebrew or an Hebrewess, go free; that none should serve himself of them, to wit, of a Jew his brother.

that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
