Exodus 21
1 “These are the ordinances that you are to set before them:
“Ovo su propisi koje treba da im izložiš:
2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. But in the seventh year, he shall go free without paying anything.
Kad za roba kupiš jednoga Hebreja, neka služi šest godina. Sedme godine neka ode, bez otkupnine, slobodan.
3 If he arrived alone, he is to leave alone; if he arrived with a wife, she is to leave with him.
Ako dođe sam, neka sam i ode; ako li je oženjen, neka s njim ide i njegova žena.
4 If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the woman and her children shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free.
Ako mu gospodar nabavi ženu, pa mu ona rodi bilo sinova bilo kćeri, i žena i njezina djeca neka pripadnu njezinu gospodaru, a on neka ide sam.
5 But if the servant declares, ‘I love my master and my wife and children; I do not want to go free,’
Ali ako rob otvoreno izjavi: 'Volim svoga gospodara, svoju ženu i svoju djecu, neću da budem slobodan',
6 then his master is to bring him before the judges. And he shall take him to the door or doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he shall serve his master for life.
neka ga onda njegov gospodar dovede k Bogu. Kad ga dovede k vratima ili dovratku, neka mu gospodar šilom probuši uho i neka mu trajno ostane u službi.
7 And if a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as the menservants do.
Kad čovjek proda svoju kćer za ropkinju, neka se ona ne oslobađa kao i muški robovi.
8 If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who had designated her for himself, he must allow her to be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, since he has broken faith with her.
Ako se ne svidi svome gospodaru, koji ju je sebi bio odredio, neka joj dopusti da se otkupi. Nema prava prodati je strancima kad joj nije bio vjeran.
9 And if he chooses her for his son, he must deal with her as with a daughter.
A ako je odredi svome sinu, neka s njome postupa kao i sa kćeri.
10 If he takes another wife, he must not reduce the food, clothing, or marital rights of his first wife.
Ako se oženi drugom, ne smije prvoj uskraćivati hrane, odjeće ili njezinih bračnih prava.
11 If, however, he does not provide her with these three things, she is free to go without monetary payment.
Ne bude li joj činio ovo troje, neka je slobodna da ode bez otkupnine.”
12 Whoever strikes and kills a man must surely be put to death.
“Tko god udari čovjeka pa ga usmrti, neka se smrću kazni.
13 If, however, he did not lie in wait, but God allowed it to happen, then I will appoint for you a place where he may flee.
Ali ako to ne učini hotimično, nego Bog pripusti da padne u njegovu šaku, odredit ću ti mjesto kamo može pobjeći.
14 But if a man schemes and acts willfully against his neighbor to kill him, you must take him away from My altar to be put to death.
Tko hotimično navali na svoga bližnjega te ga podmuklo ubije, odvuci ga i s moga žrtvenika da se pogubi.
15 Whoever strikes his father or mother must surely be put to death.
Tko udari svoga oca ili svoju majku, neka se kazni smrću.
16 Whoever kidnaps another man must be put to death, whether he sells him or the man is found in his possession.
Tko otme čovjeka - bilo da ga proda, bilo da ga u svojoj vlasti zadrži - neka se kazni smrću.
17 Anyone who curses his father or mother must surely be put to death.
Tko prokune svoga oca ili svoju majku, neka se kazni smrću.”
18 If men are quarreling and one strikes the other with a stone or a fist, and he does not die but is confined to bed,
“Ako se ljudi posvade, pa jedan od njih udari drugoga kamenom ili šakom, ali ovaj ne pogine nego padne u postelju,
19 then the one who struck him shall go unpunished, as long as the other can get up and walk around outside with his staff. Nevertheless, he must compensate the man for his lost work and see that he is completely healed.
ali poslije ustane i mogne izlaziti, makar i sa štapom, onda onome koji ga je udario neka je oprošteno, samo neka mu plati njegov gubitak vremena i pribavi mu posvemašnje izlječenje.
20 If a man strikes his manservant or maidservant with a rod, and the servant dies by his hand, he shall surely be punished.
Ako tko udari batinom svoga roba ili svoju ropkinju te umru pod njegovom šakom, mora snositi osvetu.
21 However, if the servant gets up after a day or two, the owner shall not be punished, since the servant is his property.
Ali ako rob preživi dan-dva, neka se osveta ne provodi, jer je rob njegovo vlasništvo.
22 If men who are fighting strike a pregnant woman and her child is born prematurely, but there is no further injury, he shall surely be fined as the woman’s husband demands and as the court allows.
Ako se ljudi pobiju i udare trudnu ženu te ona pobaci, ali druge štete ne bude, onda onaj koji ju je udario neka plati odštetu koju zatraži njezin muž. On neka plati kako suci odrede.
23 But if a serious injury results, then you must require a life for a life—
Bude li drugog zla, neka je kazna: život za život,
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
oko za oko, zub za zub, ruka za ruku, noga za nogu,
25 burn for burn, wound for wound, and stripe for stripe.
opeklina za opeklinu, rana za ranu, modrica za modricu.
26 If a man strikes and blinds the eye of his manservant or maidservant, he must let the servant go free as compensation for the eye.
Udari li tko svoga roba ili svoju ropkinju u oko i upropasti ga, neka ga oslobodi zbog oka.
27 And if he knocks out the tooth of his manservant or maidservant, he must let the servant go free as compensation for the tooth.
Ako izbije zub svome robu - ili svojoj ropkinji - neka ga oslobodi zbog zuba.”
28 If an ox gores a man or woman to death, the ox must surely be stoned, and its meat must not be eaten. But the owner of the ox shall not be held responsible.
“Kad goveče ubode čovjeka ili ženu pa ih usmrti, neka se kamenjem kamenuje. Njegovo se meso tada ne smije pojesti, a vlasniku njegovu neka je oprošteno.
29 But if the ox has a habit of goring, and its owner has been warned yet does not restrain it, and it kills a man or woman, then the ox must be stoned and its owner must also be put to death.
Ali ako je to goveče i prije bolo, a njegov vlasnik, iako opominjan, nije ga čuvao, pa ono usmrti čovjeka ili ženu, neka se to goveče kamenuje; a i njegov se vlasnik ima pogubiti.
30 If payment is demanded of him instead, he may redeem his life by paying the full amount demanded of him.
Ako se vlasniku označi otkupna cijena da svoj život iskupi, neka plati koliko mu se odredi.
31 If the ox gores a son or a daughter, it shall be done to him according to the same rule.
Ubode li goveče dječaka ili djevojčicu, neka se prema njemu postupi isto prema ovome pravilu.
32 If the ox gores a manservant or maidservant, the owner must pay thirty shekels of silver to the master of that servant, and the ox must be stoned.
Ako ubode roba ili ropkinju, neka vlasnik isplati njihovu gospodaru trideset srebrnih šekela, a goveče neka se kamenuje.
33 If a man opens or digs a pit and fails to cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls into it,
Kad tko ostavi bunar otvoren, ili tko iskopa bunar a ne pokrije ga, pa u nj upadne goveče ili magare, vlasnik bunara ima dati naknadu:
34 the owner of the pit shall make restitution; he must pay its owner, and the dead animal will be his.
neka isplati vlasniku u novcu, a uginula životinja neka njemu pripadne.
35 If a man’s ox injures his neighbor’s ox and it dies, they must sell the live one and divide the proceeds; they also must divide the dead animal.
Kad nečije goveče ubode goveče drugome te ono ugine, onda neka prodaju živo goveče, a dobiveni novac neka podijele; i uginulo goveče neka među sebe podijele.
36 But if it was known that the ox had a habit of goring, yet its owner failed to restrain it, he shall pay full compensation, ox for ox, and the dead animal will be his.
Ali ako se zna da je to goveče i prije bolo, a njegov ga gospodar nije čuvao, onda mora nadoknaditi goveče za goveče, dok će uginulo živinče biti njegovo.”
