2 Mojžišova 21
1 Tito jsou pak soudové, kteréž jim předložíš:
“These are the judgments which you shall place before them:
2 Jestliže koupíš k službě Žida, šest let sloužiti bude, a sedmého odejde svobodný darmo.
If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you; in the seventh, he shall depart freely, without charge.
3 Přišel-li by sám toliko, sám také odejde; pakli měl ženu, vyjde s ním i žena jeho.
With whatever clothing he arrived, with the like let him depart. If he has a wife, his wife also shall depart, at the same time.
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.
But if his lord gave him a wife, and she has borne sons and daughters, the woman and her children shall belong to her lord. Yet still, he himself will go out with his clothing.
5 Pakli by řekl služebník: Miluji pána svého, manželku svou a syny své, nevyjdu svobodný:
And if the servant will say, ‘I love my lord, and my wife and children, I will not depart freely,’
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 lord shall make an offering for him to the heavens, and it shall be applied to the door and the posts, and he will pierce his ear with an awl. And he shall be his servant in perpetuity.
7 Když by pak prodal někdo dceru svou, aby byla děvkou, nevyjdeť tak, jako vycházejí služebníci.
If anyone sells his daughter to be a servant, she shall not depart as a female servant is accustomed to go out.
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 displeases the eyes of her lord, to whom she had been delivered, he shall dismiss her. But he shall have no authority to sell her to a foreign people, even if he despises her.
9 Pakli by synu svému ji zasnoubil, učiníť jí tak, jakž obyčej jest činiti dcerám.
But if he has betrothed her to his son, he shall treat her according to the custom with daughters.
10 A dal-li by mu jinou, z stravy její, oděvu jejího, a přívětivosti manželské nic této neujme.
And if he takes another for him, he shall provide to the maiden a marriage, and clothing, and he shall not refuse the price of her chastity.
11 Neudělal-li by nic z toho trojího, vyjde darmo bez stříbra.
If he does not do these three things, she shall depart freely, without money.
12 Kdo by ubil člověka, až by od toho umřel, smrtí umře.
Whoever strikes a man, intending to murder, shall 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 did not lie in wait for him, but God delivered him into his hands, then I will appoint for you a place to which he must flee.
14 Pakli by kdo tak pyšně sobě počínal proti bližnímu svému, že by ho lstivě zabil, i od oltáře mého odtrhneš jej, aby umřel.
If someone murders his neighbor with deliberation, by lying in wait, you shall tear him away from my altar, so that he may die.
15 Kdo by otce svého neb matku svou bil, smrtí ať umře.
Whoever strikes his father or mother shall die a death.
16 Kdo by pak, ukradna někoho, prodal jej, a nalezen by byl v ruce jeho, smrtí ať umře.
Whoever will have stolen a man and sold him, having been convicted of the crime, shall be put to death.
17 I ten, kdož by zlořečil otci svému neb mateři své, smrtí ať umře.
Whoever speaks evil of his father or mother shall die a 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 men will have quarreled, and one of them has struck his neighbor with a stone or a fist, and he does not die, but lies 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 gets up again and can walk outside on his staff, he who struck him will be innocent, but only if he makes sufficient restitution for his deeds and for the cost of the physicians.
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.
Whoever strikes his male or female servant with a staff, and if they have died by his hands, he shall be guilty of a crime.
21 A však jestliže by den neb dva přečkal, neponese pomsty, nebo jej zaplatil.
But if he survives for one day or two, he shall not be subject to punishment, because it is his money.
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 will have quarreled, and one of them has struck a pregnant woman, and as a result she miscarries, but she herself survives, he shall be subject to as much damage as the husband of the woman shall petition from him, or as arbitrators shall judge.
23 Pakliť by smrt přišla, tedy dáš život za život,
But if her death will have followed, he will repay a life for a life,
24 Oko za oko, zub za zub, ruku za ruku, nohu za nohu,
an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
25 Spáleninu za spáleninu, ránu za ránu, modřinu za modřinu.
a scrape for a scrape, a wound for a wound, a bruise for a bruise.
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 anyone will have struck the eye of his male or female servant, having left them with one eye, he shall release them freely, because of the eye that he has put out.
27 Pakli by zub služebníku svému neb zub děvce své vyrazil, svobodného jej propustí za zub jeho.
Likewise, if he knocks out a tooth of his male or female servant, he shall similarly release them freely.
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 has struck a man or a woman with his horn, and if they die, it shall be stoned. And its flesh shall not be eaten; also, the owner of the ox will be innocent.
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 had been pushing with his horn, from yesterday and the day before, and they warned his owner, but he did not confine it, and it will have killed a man or a woman, then the ox shall be stoned, and his owner shall be killed.
30 Pakliť mu bude uloženo, aby se vyplatil: tedy dá výplatu za život svůj, jakážkoli na něj uložena bude.
But if they have imposed a price on him, he shall give, in exchange for his life, whatever is asked.
31 Buď že by syna utrkl, buď dceru, podlé soudu toho stane se jemu.
Likewise, if it has struck a son or a daughter with its horns, it shall be subject to a similar verdict.
32 Jestliže by služebníka vůl ztrkal neb děvku, třidceti lotů stříbra dá pánu jeho, a vůl ten bude ukamenován.
If it attacks a male or female servant, he shall give thirty shekels of silver to their lord, yet truly the ox shall 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 digs or opens a cistern, and does not cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls into it,
34 Pán té studnice nahradí to, a peníze položí pánu jeho, a což se zabilo, to sobě míti bude.
then the owner of the cistern shall repay the price of the beasts, and what is dead will belong to him.
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.
If the ox of a stranger wounds the ox of another, and it has died, then they shall sell the live ox and divide the price, but the carcass of the dead one they shall distribute between them.
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 he knew that his ox had pushed with its horns, yesterday and the day before, and its owner did not confine it, then he shall repay an ox for an ox, and he will receive the whole carcass.”
