Leviticus 25:41-43

New Century Version

⁴¹ Then he may leave you, take his children, and go back to his family and the land of his ancestors. ⁴² This is because the Israelites are my servants, and I brought them out of slavery in Egypt. They must not become slaves again. ⁴³ You must not rule this person cruelly, but you must respect your God.
