2 Mojžišova 21
1 Tito jsou pak soudové, kteréž jim předložíš:
Now these are the laws which you are to put before them.
2 Jestliže koupíš k službě Žida, šest let sloužiti bude, a sedmého odejde svobodný darmo.
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.
3 Přišel-li by sám toliko, sám také odejde; pakli měl ženu, vyjde s ním i žena jeho.
If he comes to you by himself, let him go away by himself: if he is married, let his wife go away with him.
4 Jestliže pán jeho dá mu ženu, a ona zrodí jemu syny neb dcery: žena ta i děti její budou pána jeho, on pak sám toliko odejde.
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.
5 Pakli by řekl služebník: Miluji pána svého, manželku svou a syny své, nevyjdu svobodný:
But if the servant says clearly, My master and my wife and children are dear to me; I have no desire to be free:
6 Tedy postaví ho pán jeho před soudci, a přivede ho ke dveřím neb k veřeji, a probodne pán jeho ucho jemu špicí; i zůstaneť služebníkem jeho na věky.
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.
7 Když by pak prodal někdo dceru svou, aby byla děvkou, nevyjdeť tak, jako vycházejí služebníci.
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.
8 Nelíbila-li by se pánu svému, kterýž jí sobě ještě nezasnoubil, dopustí ji vyplatiti. Lidu cizímu nebude míti práva prodati ji, poněvadž zhřešil proti ní.
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.
9 Pakli by synu svému ji zasnoubil, učiníť jí tak, jakž obyčej jest činiti dcerám.
And if he gives her to his son, he is to do everything for her as if she was his daughter.
10 A dal-li by mu jinou, z stravy její, oděvu jejího, a přívětivosti manželské nic této neujme.
And if he takes another woman, her food and clothing and her married rights are not to be less.
11 Neudělal-li by nic z toho trojího, vyjde darmo bez stříbra.
And if he does not do these three things for her, she has the right to go free without payment.
12 Kdo by ubil člověka, až by od toho umřel, smrtí umře.
He who gives a man a death-blow is himself to be put to death.
13 Když by pak neukládal o bezživotí jeho, než Bůh dal by jej v ruce jeho: tedy uložím tobě místo, do něhož by takový mohl uteci.
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.
14 Pakli by kdo tak pyšně sobě počínal proti bližnímu svému, že by ho lstivě zabil, i od oltáře mého odtrhneš jej, aby umřel.
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.
15 Kdo by otce svého neb matku svou bil, smrtí ať umře.
Any man who gives a blow to his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death.
16 Kdo by pak, ukradna někoho, prodal jej, a nalezen by byl v ruce jeho, smrtí ať umře.
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.
17 I ten, kdož by zlořečil otci svému neb mateři své, smrtí ať umře.
Any man cursing his father or his mother is to be put to death.
18 Když by se svadili muži, a urazil by který bližního svého kamenem neb pěstí, a ten by neumřel, než složil se na lůži;
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;
19 A potom by povstal a chodil vně o holi své: již nebude vinen ten, kdož urazil; toliko co zatím obmeškal, to jemu nahradí, a na vyhojení jeho naloží.
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.
20 Když by pak ubil kdo služebníka svého neb děvku svou kyjem, tak že by umřel mu v ruce jeho: pomstou pomštěno bude nad takovým.
If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant blows with a rod, causing death, he is certainly to undergo punishment.
21 A však jestliže by den neb dva přečkal, neponese pomsty, nebo jej zaplatil.
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.
22 Když by se svadili muži, a urazili ženu těhotnou, tak že by vyšel z ní plod její, však by se zhouba nestala: pokutován bude, jakž by uložil naň muž té ženy, a dá vedlé uznání soudců.
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.
23 Pakliť by smrt přišla, tedy dáš život za život,
But if damage comes to her, let life be given in payment for life,
24 Oko za oko, zub za zub, ruku za ruku, nohu za nohu,
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25 Spáleninu za spáleninu, ránu za ránu, modřinu za modřinu.
Burning for burning, wound for wound, blow for blow.
26 Jestliže by kdo urazil služebníka svého v oko, aneb děvku svou v oko, tak že by jej o ně připravil: svobodného jej propustí za oko jeho.
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.
27 Pakli by zub služebníku svému neb zub děvce své vyrazil, svobodného jej propustí za zub jeho.
Or if the loss of a tooth is caused by his blow, he will let him go free on account of his tooth.
28 Jestliže by vůl utrkl muže neb ženu, tak že by umřel člověk: ukamenován bude ten vůl, aniž jedeno bude maso jeho, však pán vola toho bez viny bude.
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.
29 Než byl-liť by vůl trkavý prvé, a bylo by to osvědčeno pánu jeho, on pak nezavřel by ho, a v tom zabil by muže neb ženu: vůl ten ukamenován bude, a pán jeho také umře.
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.
30 Pakliť mu bude uloženo, aby se vyplatil: tedy dá výplatu za život svůj, jakážkoli na něj uložena bude.
If a price is put on his life, let him make payment of whatever price is fixed.
31 Buď že by syna utrkl, buď dceru, podlé soudu toho stane se jemu.
If the death of a son or of a daughter has been caused, the punishment is to be in agreement with this rule.
32 Jestliže by služebníka vůl ztrkal neb děvku, třidceti lotů stříbra dá pánu jeho, a vůl ten bude ukamenován.
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.
33 Kdyby kdo odhradil studnici, a neb vykopal někdo studnici, a zase jí nepřikryl, a vpadl by tam vůl neb osel:
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;
34 Pán té studnice nahradí to, a peníze položí pánu jeho, a což se zabilo, to sobě míti bude.
The owner of the hole is responsible; he will have to make payment to their owner, but the dead beast will be his.
35 A ustrčil-li by vůl něčí vola sousedova, že byl umřel: tedy prodadí vola toho živého, a podělí se penězi jeho; i s zabitým volem také se rozdělí.
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.
36 Pakli vědíno bylo, že vůl byl trkavý prvé, a nezavřel ho pán jeho: bez výmluvy ať dá vola za vola, a zabitý ať mu zůstane.
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.
