Exodus 21
1 “These are the judgments which you shall place before them:
“Magi e chike manyaka iketi e nyimgi.
2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you; in the seventh, he shall depart freely, without charge.
“Ka ingʼiewo ja-Hibrania ma misumba, to enotini kuom higni auchiel. To e higa mar abiriyo, enobed thuolo, ka ok ochulo gimoro.
3 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.
Kane obiro kapok okendo, to nodog kende; to kane obiro ka osekendo, to nodog gi chiegeno.
4 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.
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 will say, ‘I love my lord, and my wife and children, I will not depart freely,’
“To ka misumba owacho ni, ‘Ahero ruodha kod chiega gi nyithinda kendo ok adwar bedo thuolo,’
6 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.
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 If anyone sells his daughter to be a servant, she shall not depart as a female servant is accustomed to go out.
“Ka ngʼato ouso nyare kaka misumba, to ok noweye obed thuolo kaka iweyo misumba madichwo.
8 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.
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 But if he has betrothed her to his son, he shall treat her according to the custom with daughters.
Ka oyiere ni wuode, to nyaka omiye duongʼ kaka nyare.
10 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.
Ka wuowino onywomo dhako machielo, to nyaka omi dhako mokwongo chiemo, lewni kendo nyaka obed kode e achiel.
11 If he does not do these three things, she shall depart freely, without money.
To ka ok ochiwone gik moko adekgi, to dhakono, ni thuolo mar dhi, maonge chudo moro amora mar pesa.
12 Whoever strikes a man, intending to murder, shall be put to death.
“Ngʼato angʼata mogoyo ngʼato kendo onego to adier nyaka negi.
13 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.
To kata kamano, ka gima otimono obothne, ma en dwach Nyasaye mondo mi otimre; to Nyasaye nomiye kar tony moseikone.
14 If someone murders his neighbor with deliberation, by lying in wait, you shall tear him away from my altar, so that he may die.
To ka ngʼato ochano kendo onego ngʼat machielo kuom wangʼ teko, to goleuru oko mabor gi kar kendona mar misango kendo negeuru.
15 Whoever strikes his father or mother shall die a death.
“Ngʼato angʼata ma omonjo wuon kata min nyaka negi.
16 Whoever will have stolen a man and sold him, having been convicted of the crime, shall be put to death.
“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 Whoever speaks evil of his father or mother shall die a death.
“Ngʼato angʼata ma okwongʼo wuon kata min nyaka negi.
18 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,
“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 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.
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 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.
“Ka ngʼato ogoyo dichwo kata dhako ma misumba gi luth kendo misumbano otho kaluwore gi gochono, nyaka kume.
21 But if he survives for one day or two, he shall not be subject to punishment, because it is his money.
To ok enokume ka misumbano ochungo oa malo bangʼ ndalo achiel kata ariyo, nimar misumbano en mwandune.
22 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.
“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 her death will have followed, he will repay a life for a life,
To ka nitie hinyruok marach to nyaka ukaw ngima kar ngima kendo
24 an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
wangʼ kar wangʼ, kendo lak kar lak, kendo lwedo kar lwedo kendo tielo kar tielo,
25 a scrape for a scrape, a wound for a wound, a bruise for a bruise.
del mowangʼ kar del mowangʼ kendo adhola kar adhola, kendo kama ogwar kar kama ogwar.
26 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.
“Ka ngʼato ogoyo wangʼ misumba madichwo kata madhako ma wangʼeno okethore, to nyaka owene misumbaneno thuolo kaka chudo mar wangʼeno.
27 Likewise, if he knocks out a tooth of his male or female servant, he shall similarly release them freely.
Kendo ka omuko lak misumba madichwo kata madhako, to nyaka owene misumbaneno thuolo kaka chudo mar lakeno.
28 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.
“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 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.
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 But if they have imposed a price on him, he shall give, in exchange for his life, whatever is asked.
Kata kamano, ka buch tho oloki, moketne chudo, to nyaka ochul nengo moro amora moketne mondo oresgo ngimane.
31 Likewise, if it has struck a son or a daughter with its horns, it shall be subject to a similar verdict.
Chik achielno ema nyaka tigo ka rwadh ochwowo nyathi ma wuowi kata ma nyako
32 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.
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 If a man digs or opens a cistern, and does not cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls into it,
“Ka ngʼato oelo dho bur kata okunyo moro kendo oweyo dhoge nono mi rwadh pur kata punda onyumoree,
34 then the owner of the cistern shall repay the price of the beasts, and what is dead will belong to him.
to wuon burno nyaka chul kuom lalno; kendo nyaka ochul wuon gigi kendo jamni mothogo nobed mage.
35 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.
“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 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.”
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.
