The verse you copied is directed to slaves, so it is not addressed to masters. What does the bible say to Masters?

For Coulter's assertion to be correct, the answer to your question would have to be "Free your slaves". Got chapter and verse for that?

Slave owning is not condemned in the scriptures.

However, forcibly enslaving someone would be condemned.

Voluntary servitude is not condemned.
