But if your slave says to you, "I don't want to leave you," because he loves you and your family and has a good life with you,17 stick an awl through his ear into the door; he will be your slave for life.
"Hone arali iyo phuli ya ri, 'A thi tsha funa u ṱuwa, ndi a u funa, na muṱa wau ndi a u funa, ndi pfa ndo takala ndi fhano,' 17u dzhie luunzhi u mu phule nḓevhe luunzhi lu tshi ṱoka kha vothi, ndi hone a tshi ḓo vha phuli yau tshoṱhe; na phuli ya musadzi u mu ite nga u ralo.
