Exodus 21
1 Now these are the laws which you are to put before them.
“Ovo su propisi koje treba da im izložiš:
2 If you get a Hebrew servant for money, he is to be your servant for six years, and in the seventh year you are to let him go free without payment.
Kad za roba kupiš jednoga Hebreja, neka služi šest godina. Sedme godine neka ode, bez otkupnine, slobodan.
3 If he comes to you by himself, let him go away by himself: if he is married, let his wife go away with him.
Ako dođe sam, neka sam i ode; ako li je oženjen, neka s njim ide i njegova žena.
4 If his master gives him a wife, and he gets sons or daughters by her, the wife and her children will be the property of the master, and the servant is to go away by himself.
Ako mu gospodar nabavi ženu, pa mu ona rodi bilo sinova bilo kćeri, i žena i njezina djeca neka pripadnu njezinu gospodaru, a on neka ide sam.
5 But if the servant says clearly, My master and my wife and children are dear to me; I have no desire to be free:
Ali ako rob otvoreno izjavi: 'Volim svoga gospodara, svoju ženu i svoju djecu, neću da budem slobodan',
6 Then his master is to take him to the gods of the house, and at the door, or at its framework, he is to make a hole in his ear with a sharp-pointed instrument; and he will be his servant for ever.
neka ga onda njegov gospodar dovede k Bogu. Kad ga dovede k vratima ili dovratku, neka mu gospodar šilom probuši uho i neka mu trajno ostane u službi.
7 And if a man gives his daughter for a price to be a servant, she is not to go away free as the men-servants do.
Kad čovjek proda svoju kćer za ropkinju, neka se ona ne oslobađa kao i muški robovi.
8 If she is not pleasing to her master who has taken her for himself, let a payment be made for her so that she may go free; her master has no power to get a price for her and send her to a strange land, because he has been false to her.
Ako se ne svidi svome gospodaru, koji ju je sebi bio odredio, neka joj dopusti da se otkupi. Nema prava prodati je strancima kad joj nije bio vjeran.
9 And if he gives her to his son, he is to do everything for her as if she was his daughter.
A ako je odredi svome sinu, neka s njome postupa kao i sa kćeri.
10 And if he takes another woman, her food and clothing and her married rights are not to be less.
Ako se oženi drugom, ne smije prvoj uskraćivati hrane, odjeće ili njezinih bračnih prava.
11 And if he does not do these three things for her, she has the right to go free without payment.
Ne bude li joj činio ovo troje, neka je slobodna da ode bez otkupnine.”
12 He who gives a man a death-blow is himself to be put to death.
“Tko god udari čovjeka pa ga usmrti, neka se smrću kazni.
13 But if he had no evil purpose against him, and God gave him into his hand, I will give you a place to which he may go in flight.
Ali ako to ne učini hotimično, nego Bog pripusti da padne u njegovu šaku, odredit ću ti mjesto kamo može pobjeći.
14 But if a man makes an attack on his neighbour on purpose, to put him to death by deceit, you are to take him from my altar and put him to death.
Tko hotimično navali na svoga bližnjega te ga podmuklo ubije, odvuci ga i s moga žrtvenika da se pogubi.
15 Any man who gives a blow to his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death.
Tko udari svoga oca ili svoju majku, neka se kazni smrću.
16 Any man who gets another into his power in order to get a price for him is to be put to death, if you take him in the act.
Tko otme čovjeka - bilo da ga proda, bilo da ga u svojoj vlasti zadrži - neka se kazni smrću.
17 Any man cursing his father or his mother is to be put to death.
Tko prokune svoga oca ili svoju majku, neka se kazni smrću.”
18 If, in a fight, one man gives another a blow with a stone, or with the shut hand, not causing his death, but making him keep in bed;
“Ako se ljudi posvade, pa jedan od njih udari drugoga kamenom ili šakom, ali ovaj ne pogine nego padne u postelju,
19 If he is able to get up again and go about with a stick, the other will be let off; only he will have to give him payment for the loss of his time, and see that he is cared for till he is well.
ali poslije ustane i mogne izlaziti, makar i sa štapom, onda onome koji ga je udario neka je oprošteno, samo neka mu plati njegov gubitak vremena i pribavi mu posvemašnje izlječenje.
20 If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant blows with a rod, causing death, he is certainly to undergo punishment.
Ako tko udari batinom svoga roba ili svoju ropkinju te umru pod njegovom šakom, mora snositi osvetu.
21 But, at the same time, if the servant goes on living for a day or two, the master is not to get punishment, for the servant is his property.
Ali ako rob preživi dan-dva, neka se osveta ne provodi, jer je rob njegovo vlasništvo.
22 If men, while fighting, do damage to a woman with child, causing the loss of the child, but no other evil comes to her, the man will have to make payment up to the amount fixed by her husband, in agreement with the decision of the judges.
Ako se ljudi pobiju i udare trudnu ženu te ona pobaci, ali druge štete ne bude, onda onaj koji ju je udario neka plati odštetu koju zatraži njezin muž. On neka plati kako suci odrede.
23 But if damage comes to her, let life be given in payment for life,
Bude li drugog zla, neka je kazna: život za život,
24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
oko za oko, zub za zub, ruka za ruku, noga za nogu,
25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, blow for blow.
opeklina za opeklinu, rana za ranu, modrica za modricu.
26 If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant a blow in the eye, causing its destruction, he is to let him go free on account of the damage to his eye.
Udari li tko svoga roba ili svoju ropkinju u oko i upropasti ga, neka ga oslobodi zbog oka.
27 Or if the loss of a tooth is caused by his blow, he will let him go free on account of his tooth.
Ako izbije zub svome robu - ili svojoj ropkinji - neka ga oslobodi zbog zuba.”
28 If an ox comes to be the cause of death to a man or a woman, the ox is to be stoned, and its flesh may not be used for food; but the owner will not be judged responsible.
“Kad goveče ubode čovjeka ili ženu pa ih usmrti, neka se kamenjem kamenuje. Njegovo se meso tada ne smije pojesti, a vlasniku njegovu neka je oprošteno.
29 But if the ox has frequently done such damage in the past, and the owner has had word of it and has not kept it under control, so that it has been the cause of the death of a man or woman, not only is the ox to be stoned, but its owner is to be put to death.
Ali ako je to goveče i prije bolo, a njegov vlasnik, iako opominjan, nije ga čuvao, pa ono usmrti čovjeka ili ženu, neka se to goveče kamenuje; a i njegov se vlasnik ima pogubiti.
30 If a price is put on his life, let him make payment of whatever price is fixed.
Ako se vlasniku označi otkupna cijena da svoj život iskupi, neka plati koliko mu se odredi.
31 If the death of a son or of a daughter has been caused, the punishment is to be in agreement with this rule.
Ubode li goveče dječaka ili djevojčicu, neka se prema njemu postupi isto prema ovome pravilu.
32 If the death of a man-servant or of a woman-servant is caused by the ox, the owner is to give their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox is to be stoned.
Ako ubode roba ili ropkinju, neka vlasnik isplati njihovu gospodaru trideset srebrnih šekela, a goveče neka se kamenuje.
33 If a man makes a hole in the earth without covering it up, and an ox or an ass dropping into it comes to its death;
Kad tko ostavi bunar otvoren, ili tko iskopa bunar a ne pokrije ga, pa u nj upadne goveče ili magare, vlasnik bunara ima dati naknadu:
34 The owner of the hole is responsible; he will have to make payment to their owner, but the dead beast will be his.
neka isplati vlasniku u novcu, a uginula životinja neka njemu pripadne.
35 And if one man's ox does damage to another man's ox, causing its death, then the living ox is to be exchanged for money, and division made of the price of it, and of the price of the dead one.
Kad nečije goveče ubode goveče drugome te ono ugine, onda neka prodaju živo goveče, a dobiveni novac neka podijele; i uginulo goveče neka među sebe podijele.
36 But if it is common knowledge that the ox has frequently done such damage in the past, and its owner has not kept it under control, he will have to give ox for ox; and the dead beast will be his.
Ali ako se zna da je to goveče i prije bolo, a njegov ga gospodar nije čuvao, onda mora nadoknaditi goveče za goveče, dok će uginulo živinče biti njegovo.”
