Then take a sharp-pointed instrument, driving it through his ear into the door, and he will be your servant for ever. And you may do the same for your servant-girl.

τοτε θελεις λαβει τρυπητηριον και θελεις τρυπησει το ωτιον αυτου προς την θυραν, και θελει εισθαι δουλος σου παντοτεινος· και εις την δουλην σου θελεις καμει ομοιως.

Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.
