خرُوج 21
| وَهَذِهِ هِي الأَحْكَامُ الَّتِي تَضَعُهَا أَمَامَهُمْ: | ١ 1 |
And these [are] the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.
| إنِ اشْتَرَيْتَ عَبْداً عِبْرَانِيًّا فَلْيَخْدُمْكَ سِتَّ سَنَوَاتٍ، وَفِي السَّنَةِ السَّابِعَةِ تُطْلِقُهُ حُرّاً مَجَّاناً | ٢ 2 |
If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve thee, and in the seventh year he shall go forth free for nothing.
| وَإذَا اشْتَرَيْتَهُ وَهُوَ أَعْزَبُ يُطْلَقُ وَحْدَهُ. وَإِنِ اشْتَرَيْتَهُ وَهُوَ بَعْلُ امْرَأَةٍ، تُطْلَقُ زَوْجَتُهُ مَعَهُ. | ٣ 3 |
If he should have come in alone, he shall also go forth alone; and if his wife should have gone in together with him, his wife also shall go out.
| وَإِنْ وَهَبَهُ مَوْلاهُ زَوْجَةً وَأَنْجَبَتْ لَهُ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ، فَإِنَّ زَوْجَتَهُ وَأَوْلادَهَا يَكُونُونَ مِلْكاً لِسَيِّدِهِ، وَهُوَ يُطْلَقُ وَحْدَهُ حُرّاً. | ٤ 4 |
Moreover, if his master give him a wife, and she have [born] him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be his master's; and he shall go forth alone.
| لَكِنْ إِنْ قَالَ الْعَبْدُ: «أُحِبُّ مَوْلايَ وَزَوْجَتِي وَأَوْلادِي، وَلا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ حُرّاً. | ٥ 5 |
And if the servant should answer and say, I love my master and wife and children, I will not go away free;
| يَأْخُذُهُ سَيِّدُهُ إِلَى قُضَاةِ الْمَدِينَةِ، ثُمَّ يُقِيمُهُ لِصْقَ الْبَابِ أَوْ قَائِمَتِهِ، وَيَثْقُبُ أُذُنَهُ بِمِخْرَزٍ، فَيُصْبِحُ خَادِماً لَهُ مَدَى الْحَيَاةِ. | ٦ 6 |
his master shall bring him to the judgment-seat of God, and then shall he bring him to the door, —to the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.
| وَلَكِنْ إِذَا بَاعَ رَجُلٌ ابْنَتَهُ كَأَمَةٍ، فَإِنَّهَا لَا تُطْلَقُ حُرَّةً كَمَا يُطْلَقُ الْعَبْدُ. | ٧ 7 |
And if any one sell his daughter as a domestic, she shall not depart as the maid-servants depart.
| فَإِذَا لَمْ تَرُقْ لِمَوْلاهَا الَّذِي خَطَبَهَا لِنَفْسِهِ، يَسْمَحُ بِافْتِدَائِهَا، وَلا يَحِقُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَبِيعَهَا لِقَوْمٍ أَجَانِبَ لأَنَّهُ غَدَرَ بِها فَلَمْ يَتَزَوَّجْهَا | ٨ 8 |
If she be not pleasing to her master, after she has betrothed herself to him, he shall let her go free; but he is not at liberty to sell her to a foreign nation, because he has trifled with her.
| وَإِنْ خَطَبَهَا لاِبْنِهِ فَإِنَّهُ يُعَامِلُهَا كَابْنَةٍ لَهُ. | ٩ 9 |
And if he should have betrothed her to his son, he shall do to her according to the right of daughters.
| أَمَّا إِذَا أَعْجَبَتْهُ وَتَزَوَّجَهَا، ثُمَّ عَادَ فَتَزَوَّجَ مِنْ أُخْرَى، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُنَقِّصُ شَيْئاً مِنْ طَعَامِهَا وَكُسْوَتِهَا وَمُعَاشَرَتِهَا، | ١٠ 10 |
And if he take another to himself, he shall not deprive her of necessaries and her apparel, and her companionship [with him].
| فَإِذَا قَصَّرَ فِي وَاحِدٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأَشْيَاءِ الثَّلاثَةِ، عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُطْلِقَهَا حُرَّةً مَجَّاناً. | ١١ 11 |
And if he will not do these three things to her, she shall go out free without money.
| مَنْ ضَرَبَ إنْسَاناً وَقَتَلَهُ، فَالضَّارِبُ حَتْماً يَمُوتُ. | ١٢ 12 |
And if any man smite another and he die, let him be certainly put to death.
| وَلَكِنْ إِنْ لَمْ يَتَعَمَّدِ الضَّارِبُ ذَلِكَ، بَلْ حَدَثَ الأَمْرُ بِقَضَاءِ اللهِ فَإِنِّي سَأُعَيِّنُ لَهُ مَكَاناً يَلْجَأُ إِلَيْهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
But as for him that did it not willingly, but God delivered him into his hands, I will give thee a place whither the slayer may flee.
| وَلَكِنْ إِذَا تَآمَرَ أَحَدٌ عَلَى آخَرَ وَتَعَمَّدَ قَتْلَهُ، فَسُقْهُ لِلْمَوْتِ حَتَّى وَلَوِ احْتَمَى بِمَذْبَحِي | ١٤ 14 |
And if any one lie in wait for his neighbour to slay him by craft, and he go for refuge, thou shalt take him from my altar to put him to death.
| كُلُّ مَنْ يَضْرِبْ أَبَاهُ أَوْ أُمَّهُ، يُقْتَلْ. | ١٥ 15 |
Whoever smites his father or his mother, let him be certainly put to death.
| مَنْ يَخْطِفْ إِنْسَاناً وَيَبِعْهُ أَوْ يَسْتَرِقَّهُ عِنْدَهُ حَتْماً يَمُتْ. | ١٦ 16 |
He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.
| مَنْ يَشْتِمْ أَبَاهُ أَوْ أُمَّهُ يُقْتَلْ. | ١٧ 17 |
Whosoever shall steal one of the children of Israel, and prevail over him and sell him, and he be found with him, let him certainly die.
| إِذَا تَعَارَكَ رَجُلانِ فَضَرَبَ أَحَدُهُمَا الآخَرَ بِحَجَرٍ أَوْ لَكَمَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُمِيتَهُ بَلْ أَلْزَمَهُ الْفِرَاشَ، | ١٨ 18 |
And if two men revile each other and smite the one the other with a stone or his fist, and he die not, but be laid upon his bed;
| ثُمَّ قَامَ مُتَمَشِّياً مُتَوَكِّئاً عَلَى عُكَّازِهِ، يُبَرَّأُ الضَّارِبُ، إلّا أَنَّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَدْفَعَ لِلْمَضْرُوبِ تَعْوِيضاً عَنْ مُدَّةِ تَعَطُّلِهِ، وَيَتَحَمَّلَ نَفَقَاتِ عِلاجِهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
if the man arise and walk abroad on his staff, he that smote him shall be clear; only he shall pay for his loss of time, and for his healing.
| إنْ ضَرَبَ أَحَدٌ عَبْدَهُ أَوْ أَمَتَهُ بِالْعَصَا ضَرْباً أَفْضَى إِلَى الْمَوْتِ، يُعَاقَبُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And if a man smite his man-servant or his maid-servant, with a rod, and [the party] die under his hands, he shall be surely punished.
| لَكِنْ إِنْ بَقِيَ حَيًّا يَوْماً أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ، لَا يُعَاقَبُ الضَّارِبُ، لأَنَّ العَبْدَ مِلْكُهُ. | ٢١ 21 |
But if [the servant] continue to live a day or two, let not [the master] be punished; for he is his money.
| إِنْ تَضَارَبَ رِجَالٌ وَصَدَمُوا امْرَأَةً حَامِلاً فَأَجْهَضَتْ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَتَأَذَّى، يَدْفَعُ الصَّادِمُ غَرَامَةً بِمُقْتَضَى مَا يُطَالِبُ بِهِ الزَّوْجُ وَوَفْقاً لِقَرَارِ الْقُضَاةِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And if two men strive and smite a woman with child, and her child be born imperfectly formed, he shall be forced to pay a penalty: as the woman's husband may lay upon him, he shall pay with a valuation.
| أَمَّا إِذَا تَأَذَّتِ الْمَرْأَةُ، تَأْخُذُ نَفْساً بِنَفْسٍ، | ٢٣ 23 |
But if it be perfectly formed, he shall give life for life,
| وَعَيْناً بِعَيْنٍ، وَسِنّاً بِسِنٍّ، وَيَداً بِيَدٍ، وَرِجْلاً بِرِجْلٍ، | ٢٤ 24 |
eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
| وَكَيًّا بِكَيٍّ، وَجُرْحاً بِجُرْحٍ، وَرَضّاً بِرَضٍّ. | ٢٥ 25 |
burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
| وَإذَا ضَرَبَ أَحَدٌ عَبْدَهُ أَوْ أَمَتَهُ، فَأَتْلَفَ عَيْنَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُطْلِقُهُ حُرّاً تَعْوِيضاً لَهُ عَنْ عَيْنِهِ | ٢٦ 26 |
And if one smite the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his maid-servant, and put it out, he shall let them go free for their eye's sake.
| وَإذَا ضَرَبَ أَحَدٌ عَبْدَهُ أَوْ أَمَتَهُ، فَأَسْقَطَ سِنَّهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُطْلِقُهُ حُرّاً تَعْوِيضاً عَنْ سِنِّهِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And if he should smite out the tooth of his man-servant, or the tooth of his maid-servant, he shall send them away free for their tooth's sake.
| إِذَا نَطَحَ ثَوْرٌ رَجُلاً أَوِ امْرَأَةً فَمَاتَ، يُرْجَمُ الثَّوْرُ حَتَّى الْمَوْتِ وَلا تَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمَهُ، وَيَكُونُ صَاحِبُ الثَّوْرِ بَرِيئاً. | ٢٨ 28 |
And if a bull gore a man or woman and they die, the bull shall be stoned with stones, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall be clear.
| أَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ الثَّوْرُ نَطَّاحاً مِنْ قَبْلُ، وَسَبَقَ إِنْذَارُ صَاحِبِهِ، فَلَمْ يَكْبَحْهُ، فَقَتَلَ رَجُلاً أَوِ امْرَأَةً، يُرْجَمُ الثَّوْرُ، وَيُقْتَلُ صَاحِبُهُ. | ٢٩ 29 |
But if the bull should have been given to goring in former time, and men should have told his owner, and he have not removed him, but he should have slain a man or woman, the bull shall be stoned, and his owner shall die also.
| إلّا إِذَا طُولِبَ بِدَفْعِ الدِّيَّةِ، فَيَدْفَعُ آنَئِذٍ فِدَاءَ نَفْسِهِ مَا هُوَ مَتَوَجِّبٌ عَلَيْهِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And if a ransom should be imposed on him, he shall pay for the ransom of his soul as much as they shall lay upon him.
| وَإذَا نَطَحَ ابْناً أَوِ ابْنَةً، يُنَفَّذُ فِيهِ هَذَا الْحُكْمُ. | ٣١ 31 |
And if [the bull] gore a son or daughter, let them do to him according to this ordinance.
| وَإذَا نَطَحَ الثَّوْرُ عَبْداً أَوْ أَمَةً، فَإِنَّ صَاحِبَهُ يَدْفَعُ ثَلاثِينَ قِطْعَةَ فِضَّةٍ تَعْوِيضاً لِمَوْلاهُ، وَيُرْجَمُ الثَّوْرُ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And if the bull gore a man-servant or maid-servant, he shall pay to their master thirty silver didrachms, and the bull shall be stoned.
| إنْ كَشَفَ إِنْسَانٌ غِطَاءَ بِئْرِهِ، أَوْ حَفَرَ بِئْراً وَتَرَكَهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ غِطَاءٍ، فَوَقَعَ فِيهَا ثَوْرٌ أَوْ حِمَارٌ، | ٣٣ 33 |
And if any one open a pit or dig a cavity in stone, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall in there,
| يَقُومُ صَاحِبُ الْبِئْرِ بِدَفْعِ تَعْوِيضٍ عَنِ الْخَسَارَةِ تُضَاهِي ثَمَنَهُ، وَيَكُونُ الْمَيْتُ لَهُ. | ٣٤ 34 |
the owner of the pit shall make compensation; he shall give money to their owner, and the dead shall be his own.
| وَإذَا نَطَحَ ثَوْرُ إِنْسَانٍ ثَوْرَ صَاحِبٍ لَهُ فَمَاتَ الثَّوْرُ، فَإِنَّهُمَا يَبِيعَانِ الثَّوْرَ الْحَيَّ وَيَقْتَسِمَانِ ثَمَنَهُ، وَكَذَلِكَ يَقْتَسِمَانِ الثَّوْرَ الْمَيْتَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
And if any man's bull gore the bull of his neighbour, and it die, they shall sell the living bull and divide the money, and they shall divide the dead bull.
| وَأَمَّا إِذَا كَانَ مَعْرُوفاً مِنْ قَبْلُ، أَنَّ الثَّوْرَ نَطَّاحٌ وَلَمْ يَكْبَحْهُ صَاحِبُهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُعَوِّضُ ثَوْراً بِثَوْرٍ، وَيَكُونُ الثَّوْرُ الْمَيْتُ لَهُ. | ٣٦ 36 |
But if the bull be known to have been given to goring in time past, and they have testified to his owner, and he have not removed him, he shall repay bull for bull, but the dead shall be his own.
