Exodus 21
1 Now, these are the regulations which thou shalt put before them.
Torej to so sodbe, ki jih boš postavil prednje.
2 When thou shalt acquire a servant who is a Hebrew, six years, shall he serve, —but in the seventh shall he go out freely—for nought.
Če kupiš hebrejskega služabnika, naj ti služi šest let. V sedmem letu pa naj odide prost, brez plačila.
3 If, by himself, he came in, by himself, shall he go out, —if he was married, then shall his wife go out with him.
Če je sam prišel, naj sam odide. Če je bil poročen, potem naj njegova žena odide z njim.
4 If his lord gave him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her lords, and, he shall go out by himself.
Če mu je njegov gospodar dal ženo in mu je rodila sinove ali hčere, naj bodo žena in njeni otroci [od] njegovega gospodarja, on pa naj odide sam.
5 But, if the servant shall plainly say, I love my lord, and my wife and my sons, —I will not go out free,
Če mu bo služabnik jasno rekel: ›Ljubim svojega gospodarja, svojo ženo in svoje otroke; ne bom odšel svoboden, ‹
6 then shall his lord bring him near unto God, and shall bring him near unto the door, or unto the door-post, —and his lord shall pierce his ear with an awl, so shall he serve him all his life.
potem naj ga njegov gospodar privede k sodnikom. Prav tako naj ga privede k vratom ali k podboju in njegov gospodar naj njegovo uho prebode s šilom, on pa naj mu za vedno služi.
7 And when a man shall sell his daughter to be a handmaid, she shall not go out according to the out-going of the men-servants,
Če človek proda svojo hčer, da postane dekla, naj ona ne odide, kakor storijo služabniki.
8 If she is uncomely in the eyes of her lord, who hath not assigned her in marriage, then shall he suffer her to be redeemed: to a strange people, shall he not have power to sell her in that he hath dealt treacherously with her.
Če ne ugaja svojemu gospodarju, ki si jo je zaročil, tedaj naj bo odkupljena. Ne bo imel oblasti, da jo proda v tuj narod, glede na to, da je z njo ravnal varljivo.
9 And if, to his son, he assign her, according to the custom for daughters, shall he do for her.
Če jo je zaročil svojemu sinu, naj z njo postopa po načinu hčera.
10 If he take to himself another, her food her clothing, and her marriage-right, shall he not withdraw.
Če si vzame drugo ženo, naj njene hrane, njenega oblačila in njene zakonske dolžnosti ne zmanjša.
11 But if these three, he will not do for her, then shall she go out for nought, without silver.
Če ji ne stori teh treh stvari, potem naj ta odide ven prosta, brez denarja.
12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall surely be put to death.
Kdor udarja človeka, tako da umre, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
13 But he who hath not lain in wait, but, God, hath occasioned him to come to his hand, then will I appoint for thee a place, whither he may flee.
Če človek ne preži nanj, temveč ga Bog izroči v njegovo roko, potem bom določil kraj, kamor naj zbeži.
14 But, when a man shall act presumptuously against his neighbour to slay him with guile, from mine altar, shalt thou take him to die.
Toda če pride človek prepotentno nad svojega bližnjega, da ga z zvijačo ubije, ga odvedi od mojega oltarja, da lahko umre.
15 And, he that smiteth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.
Kdor udarja svojega očeta ali svojo mater, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
16 And, he that stealeth a man of the sons of Israel, and selleth him, or he be found in his hand, shall, surely be put to death.
Kdor ugrabi človeka in ga prodaja ali če je le-ta najden v njegovi roki, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
17 And he who revileth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.
Kdor preklinja svojega očeta ali svojo mater, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
18 And when men strive together, and one shall smite the other, with a stone or with his fist, —and he die not, but shall fall to his bed; —
Če se moža skupaj prepirata in je eden udaril drugega s kamnom ali s svojo pestjo, pa ta ne umre, temveč se drži svoje postelje;
19 if he rise and shall walk abroad on his staff, then shall he that smote him be acquitted, —only, for his loss of time, he shall pay, and, shall surely heal, him.
če ta ponovno vstane in hodi okoli na svoji palici, potem naj bo tisti, ki ga je udaril, oproščen. Samo plačal mu bo za izgubo njegovega časa in poskrbel bo, da bo temeljito ozdravljen.
20 And when a man shall smite his servant or his handmaid with a rod, and he die under his hand, he shall, surely be avenged;
Če človek udari svojega služabnika ali svojo služabnico s palico in le-ta pod njegovo roko umre, naj bo zagotovo kaznovan.
21 nevertheless if, for a day or for two days, he continue, he shall not be avenged, for, his silver, he is.
Vendar če preživi dan ali dva, naj ne bo kaznovan, kajti on je njegov denar.
22 And when men strive together and push against a woman with child, and she miscarry, but there is no other mischief, he shall, surely be fined, according as the woman’s husband shall lay upon him, but he shall give it through judges.
Če se moža prepirata in poškodujeta nosečnico, tako da njen sad odide od nje in ne sledi nobena škoda, naj bo ta zagotovo kaznovan glede na to, kakor mu naloži ženin soprog. Plača naj, kakor mu bodo določili sodniki.
23 But, if mischief follow, then shalt thou give life for life;
Če sledi katerakoli nesreča, potem boš dal življenje za življenje,
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, —hand for hand, foot for foot,
oko za oko, zob za zob, roko za roko, stopalo za stopalo,
25 brand for brand, wound for wound, —stripe for stripe.
opeklino za opeklino, rano za rano, udarec z bičem za udarec z bičem.
26 And, when a man smiteth the eye of his servant, or the eye of his handmaid, and destroyeth it, he shall send him forth, free, for his eye;
Če človek udari oko svojega služabnika ali oko svoje služabnice, da le-ta propade, naj ga pusti oditi svobodnega zaradi njegovega očesa.
27 or, if, the tooth of his servant or the tooth of his handmaid, he knock out, he shall send him forth, free, for his tooth.
Če svojemu slugi izbije zob ali zob svoji dekli, naj ga pusti oditi prostega zaradi njegovega zoba.
28 And when an ox goreth a man or a woman, and death ensueth, the ox shall, surely be stoned and his flesh shall not be eaten, and the owner of the ox, shall be quit.
Če vol zabode moškega ali žensko, da umreta, potem naj bo vol zagotovo kamnan in njegovo meso naj se ne jé, toda lastnik vola naj bo oproščen.
29 But, if, the ox, was wont to gore before that time and it hath been attested to his owner, and he hath not proceeded to put him under guard, and he causeth the death of man or woman, the ox, shall be stoned, and, his owner also, shall be put to death.
Toda če je imel vol navado, da je s svojim rogom bodel v preteklem času in je bilo to pričevano njegovemu lastniku, pa ga ta ni držal zaprtega, temveč da je usmrtil moškega ali žensko, naj bo vol kamnan in tudi njegov lastnik naj bo usmrčen.
30 If, a sin-covering, be laid on him, then shall he give a ransom for his life, according to whatsoever may be laid on him:
Če mu bo naložena vsota denarja, potem naj da za odkupnino svojega življenja, karkoli mu bo naloženo.
31 if, a son, he gore or, a daughter, he gore, according to this regulation, shall it be done to him;
Če je nabodel sina ali nabodel hčer, naj mu bo storjeno glede na to sodbo.
32 if, a servant the ox gore, or a handmaid, thirty shekels of silver, shall he give to his lord, and, the ox, shall be stoned.
Če bo vol pobodel sluga ali deklo, naj njihovemu gospodarju da trideset šeklov srebra, vol pa naj bo kamnan.
33 And when a man openeth a pit, or when a man diggeth a pit, and doth not cover it, —and there falleth thereinto an ox or an ass,
Če bo človek odprl jamo ali če bo človek izkopal jamo in je ne bo pokril in vanjo pade vol ali osel,
34 the owner of the pit, shall make it good, silver, shall he pay back to the owner thereof, —and the dead beast, shall be his.
naj lastnik jame to dobro naredi in da denar lastniku le-teh; mrtva žival pa naj bo njegova.
35 And when the ox of one man thrusteth the ox of his neighbour so that it dieth, then shall they sell the live ox and divide the silver thereof, and the dead ox also, shall they divide,
Če pa vol nekega človeka poškoduje drugega, da ta umre, potem naj prodajo živega vola in razdelijo denar od njega; in prav tako naj razdelijo mrtvega vola.
36 Or if it was known that, an ox, was, wont to gore, before that time, and his owner proceeded not to put him under guard, he shall surely make good, —an ox for the ox, and, the dead one, shall be his.
Ali če je bilo znano, da je imel vol navado v preteklem času bosti, pa ga njegov lastnik ni imel zaprtega, naj zagotovo plača vola za vola, mrtvi pa naj bo njegov.
