2 Mojžišova 21
1 Tito jsou pak soudové, kteréž jim předložíš:
And these are the laws of justice which thou shalt set before them.
2 Jestliže koupíš k službě Žida, šest let sloužiti bude, a sedmého odejde svobodný darmo.
If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve; and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3 Přišel-li by sám toliko, sám také odejde; pakli měl ženu, vyjde s ním i žena jeho.
If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself; if he was the husband of a woman, then shall his wife go out 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 should give him a wife, and she bear him sons or daughters: the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall go out by himself.
5 Pakli by řekl služebník: Miluji pána svého, manželku svou a syny své, nevyjdu svobodný:
And if the servant should plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out 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 shall his master bring him unto the judges, and he shall bring him to the door, or unto the door-post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him till the jubilee.
7 Když by pak prodal někdo dceru svou, aby byla děvkou, nevyjdeť tak, jako vycházejí služebníci.
And if a man sell his daughter for a maid-servant, she shall not go out as the men-servants 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 please not her master, to whom he hath assigned her, then shall he aid her to be redeemed: unto a strange nation he shall have no power to sell her, seeing he hath dealt faithlessly with her.
9 Pakli by synu svému ji zasnoubil, učiníť jí tak, jakž obyčej jest činiti dcerám.
And if he should assign her unto his son, then shall he do unto her after the right of the daughters.
10 A dal-li by mu jinou, z stravy její, oděvu jejího, a přívětivosti manželské nic této neujme.
If he take himself another wife, her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
11 Neudělal-li by nic z toho trojího, vyjde darmo bez stříbra.
And if he do not these three things unto her, then shall she go out free, without money.
12 Kdo by ubil člověka, až by od toho umřel, smrtí umře.
He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall surely 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.
And if he did not lie in wait, but God let it come into his hand, then will I appoint thee a place whither he shall 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.
But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbor, to slay him with guile, from my altar shalt thou take him, that he may die.
15 Kdo by otce svého neb matku svou bil, smrtí ať umře.
And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
16 Kdo by pak, ukradna někoho, prodal jej, a nalezen by byl v ruce jeho, smrtí ať umře.
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, and he be found in his hand, shall surely be put to death.
17 I ten, kdož by zlořečil otci svému neb mateři své, smrtí ať umře.
And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely 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;
And if men strive together, and one smite the other with a stone, or with the fist, and he die not, but keepeth his 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 rise again, and walk abroad upon his crutch, then shall he that smote him be quit; only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
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.
And if a man smite his servant or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand, it shall be surely avenged.
21 A však jestliže by den neb dva přečkal, neponese pomsty, nebo jej zaplatil.
Nevertheless, if he continue alive a day or two, it shall not be avenged; for he 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 strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her children depart from her, and yet no farther mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, [with a fine, ] according as the husband of the woman will lay upon him; and he shall pay this by the decision of the judges.
23 Pakliť by smrt přišla, tedy dáš život za život,
And if any mischief follow, then shalt thou give life 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, bruise for 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.
And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish, he shall let him go free for the sake of his eye.
27 Pakli by zub služebníku svému neb zub děvce své vyrazil, svobodného jej propustí za zub jeho.
And if he strike out his man-servant's tooth, or his maid-servant's tooth, he shall let him go free for the sake 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 gore a man or a woman, that he die: then shall the ox be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
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 were wont to gore in time past, and warning have been given to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, and he killeth a man or a woman: the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also should of right be put to death;
30 Pakliť mu bude uloženo, aby se vyplatil: tedy dá výplatu za život svůj, jakážkoli na něj uložena bude.
But there shall be laid on him a sum of money in atonement, and he shall give the ransom of his life whatsoever may be laid upon him.
31 Buď že by syna utrkl, buď dceru, podlé soudu toho stane se jemu.
If he gore a son, or gore a daughter, according to this judgment shall be done unto him.
32 Jestliže by služebníka vůl ztrkal neb děvku, třidceti lotů stříbra dá pánu jeho, a vůl ten bude ukamenován.
If the ox gore a man-servant or a maid-servant, thirty shekels of silver shall he give to his master, and 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:
And if a man open a pit, or if a man dig a pit, and do not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein:
34 Pán té studnice nahradí to, a peníze položí pánu jeho, a což se zabilo, to sobě míti bude.
The owner of the pit shall make it good, he shall make restitution in money unto the owner thereof; and the dead beast shall 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 hurt the ox of another, that he die: then shall they sell the live ox, and divide his money; and the dead ox also they shall divide.
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 be known that the ox was wont to gore in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in: he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall belong to him.
