Deuteronomy 23:15

'Thou dost not shut up a servant unto his lord, who is delivered unto thee from his lord;

Young's Literal Translation

In The King James Version

Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:

In Context

14for Jehovah thy God is walking up and down in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give thine enemies before thee, and thy camp hath been holy, and He doth not see in thee the nakedness of anything, and hath turned back from after thee.

16with thee he doth dwell, in thy midst, in the place which he chooseth within one of thy gates, where it is pleasing to him; thou dost not oppress him.
