"Torture and fetters are for a malicious slave: send him to work, that he be not idle:"
En contexte
26He worketh under correction, and seeketh to rest: let his hands be idle, and he seeketh liberty.
27The yoke and the thong bend a stiff neck, and continual labours bow a slave.
28Torture and fetters are for a malicious slave: send him to work, that he be not idle:
29For idleness hath taught much evil.
30Set him to work: for so it is fit for him. And if he be not obedient, bring him down with fetters, but be not excessive towards any one: and do no grievous thing without judgment.
