Exodus 21
1 And these [are] the ordinances which you shall set before them.
“Magi e chike manyaka iketi e nyimgi.
2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you, and in the seventh year he shall go forth free for nothing.
“Ka ingʼiewo ja-Hibrania ma misumba, to enotini kuom higni auchiel. To e higa mar abiriyo, enobed thuolo, ka ok ochulo gimoro.
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.
Kane obiro kapok okendo, to nodog kende; to kane obiro ka osekendo, to nodog gi chiegeno.
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.
Ka ruodhe omiye dhako kendo onywolone yawuowi gi nyiri, dhakono kaachiel gi nyithinde nobed mwandu ruodhe kendo mana misumbano kende ema nobed thuolo.
5 And if the servant should answer and say, I love my master and wife and children, I will not go away free;
“To ka misumba owacho ni, ‘Ahero ruodha kod chiega gi nyithinda kendo ok adwar bedo thuolo,’
6 his master shall bring him to the judgement-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.
to ruodhe nyaka tere e nyim jongʼad bura. Notere e dhoot kata e siro mar dhoot kendo notuch ite gi riwi. Bangʼe obiro bedo misumbane nyaka chiengʼ.
7 And if any one sell his daughter as a domestic, she shall not depart as the maidservants depart.
“Ka ngʼato ouso nyare kaka misumba, to ok noweye obed thuolo kaka iweyo misumba madichwo.
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.
To ka ruoth mongʼieweno chunye ok mor kode; to ruodheno noweye mondo oware. Oonge gi thuolo mar use ne jopinje mamoko, nikech oseketho singruokne kode.
9 And if he should have betrothed her to his son, he shall do to her according to the right of daughters.
Ka oyiere ni wuode, to nyaka omiye duongʼ kaka nyare.
10 And if he take another to himself, he shall not deprive her of necessaries and her apparel, and her companionship [with him].
Ka wuowino onywomo dhako machielo, to nyaka omi dhako mokwongo chiemo, lewni kendo nyaka obed kode e achiel.
11 And if he will not do these three things to her, she shall go out free without money.
To ka ok ochiwone gik moko adekgi, to dhakono, ni thuolo mar dhi, maonge chudo moro amora mar pesa.
12 And if any man strike another and he die, let him be certainly put to death.
“Ngʼato angʼata mogoyo ngʼato kendo onego to adier nyaka negi.
13 But as for him that did it not willingly, but God delivered him into his hands, I will give you a place whither the slayer may flee.
To kata kamano, ka gima otimono obothne, ma en dwach Nyasaye mondo mi otimre; to Nyasaye nomiye kar tony moseikone.
14 And if any one lie in wait for his neighbour to kill him by craft, and he go for refuge, you shall take him from my altar to put him to death.
To ka ngʼato ochano kendo onego ngʼat machielo kuom wangʼ teko, to goleuru oko mabor gi kar kendona mar misango kendo negeuru.
15 Whoever smites his father or his mother, let him be certainly put to death.
“Ngʼato angʼata ma omonjo wuon kata min nyaka negi.
16 He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.
“Ngʼato angʼata mokawo nyawadgi githuon mi omiye ngʼat machielo kuom chudo kata bed ni pod opande e kindeno moyude gi ngʼatno, to nyaka nege.
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.
“Ngʼato angʼata ma okwongʼo wuon kata min nyaka negi.
18 And if two men revile each other and strike the one the other with a stone or his fist, and he die not, but be laid upon his bed;
“Ka chwo gore kendo achiel kuomgi ogoyo nyawadgi gi kidi kata gi adhongʼ to ok otho, to obedo mana matuo kosiko e pien,
19 if the man arise and walk abroad on his staff, he that struck him shall be clear; only he shall pay for his loss of time, and for his healing.
to ngʼatno mane ogocho ok nomok e wachno ka machielono ochungo mi owuotho oko gi ludhe; to kata kamano, nyaka ochul ngʼat mohinyoreno kuom thuolone mokethore kendo one ni ochango chutho.
20 And if a man strike his man-servant or his maidservant, with a rod, and [the party] die under his hands, he shall be surely punished.
“Ka ngʼato ogoyo dichwo kata dhako ma misumba gi luth kendo misumbano otho kaluwore gi gochono, nyaka kume.
21 But if [the servant] continue to live a day or two, let not [the master] be punished; for he is his money.
To ok enokume ka misumbano ochungo oa malo bangʼ ndalo achiel kata ariyo, nimar misumbano en mwandune.
22 And if two men strive and strike 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.
“Ka chwo magore ogoyo dhako man-gi ich kendo onywol ka kinde nywol pok ochopo to onge hinyruok moro malich, ngʼat motimo marachno nyaka gol chudo moro amora ma chwor dhakono okwayo kendo jangʼad bura oyiego.
23 But if it be perfectly formed, he shall give life for life,
To ka nitie hinyruok marach to nyaka ukaw ngima kar ngima kendo
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
wangʼ kar wangʼ, kendo lak kar lak, kendo lwedo kar lwedo kendo tielo kar tielo,
25 burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
del mowangʼ kar del mowangʼ kendo adhola kar adhola, kendo kama ogwar kar kama ogwar.
26 And if one strike the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his maidservant, and put it out, he shall let them go free for their eye's sake.
“Ka ngʼato ogoyo wangʼ misumba madichwo kata madhako ma wangʼeno okethore, to nyaka owene misumbaneno thuolo kaka chudo mar wangʼeno.
27 And if he should strike out the tooth of his man-servant, or the tooth of his maidservant, he shall send them away free for their tooth's sake.
Kendo ka omuko lak misumba madichwo kata madhako, to nyaka owene misumbaneno thuolo kaka chudo mar lakeno.
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.
“Ka rwath ochwoyo dichwo kata dhako monego, rwadhno nyaka go gi kite ma tho, kendo ringe kik cham. To wuon rwadhno wachno ok nomake.
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.
To kata kamano, ka rwadhno osebedo gi kido mar chwopo kendo wuon-gi osesiem to ok osetweye e dipo mi onego dichwo kata dhako, rwadhno nyaka go gi kite kendo wuon-gi bende nyaka negi.
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.
Kata kamano, ka buch tho oloki, moketne chudo, to nyaka ochul nengo moro amora moketne mondo oresgo ngimane.
31 And if [the bull] gore a son or daughter, let them do to him according to this ordinance.
Chik achielno ema nyaka tigo ka rwadh ochwowo nyathi ma wuowi kata ma nyako
32 And if the bull gore a man-servant or maidservant, he shall pay to their master thirty silver didrachmas, and the bull shall be stoned.
Ka rwath ochwowo dichwo kata dhako ma misumba, to wuon rwadhno nyaka chul ruodh misumbano fedha ma pekne romo nus kilo, kendo rwadhno nyaka negi.
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,
“Ka ngʼato oelo dho bur kata okunyo moro kendo oweyo dhoge nono mi rwadh pur kata punda onyumoree,
34 the owner of the pit shall make compensation; he shall give money to their owner, and the dead shall be his own.
to wuon burno nyaka chul kuom lalno; kendo nyaka ochul wuon gigi kendo jamni mothogo nobed mage.
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.
“Ka rwadh ngʼato ohinyo rwadh ngʼat machielo mi otho, to ginius rwath mangimano kendo ginipog pesa kaachiel gi ring rwath mothono marom.
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.
To kata kamano, kane ongʼere ni rwadhno ne nigi kido mar chwopo, kendo wuon-gi ne osesiem to ne ok otweye, wuon-gi nyaka chul, chiayo kar chiayo kendo chiayo mothono nobed mare.
