Exodus 22
1 “If anyone will have stolen an ox or a sheep, and if he kills it or sells it, then he will restore five oxen for one ox, and four sheep for one sheep.
假使有人偷了牛或羊，無論是宰了或賣了，應用五頭牛賠償一頭牛，四隻羊賠償一隻羊。
2 If a thief will have been discovered breaking into a house, or digging under it, and he has received a mortal wound, he who struck him down will not be guilty of blood.
若在挖窟窿時，被人逮住打死，打的人沒有流血的罪。
3 But if he did this when the sun was risen, he has perpetrated a homicide, and he shall die. If he does not have the means to make restitution for the theft, he shall be sold.
若太陽已出來，打的人就有流血的罪。竊賊必須償還，他若一無所有，應賣身還他所偷之物。
4 If whatever he stole should be found with him, a living thing, either an ox, or a donkey, or a sheep, he shall repay double.
所偷之物無論是牛或驢或羊，若在他手中被尋獲時還活著，應加倍償還。
5 If there is any damage to a field or a vineyard, when he has released his cattle to pasture on the land of a stranger, he shall repay the best of what he has in his own field, or in his own vineyard, according to the estimation of the damage.

假使有人將銀錢或物品交人保存，而銀錢或物品從這人家中被偷去，若賊人被尋獲，應加倍賠償。
8 If the thief is unknown, the lord of the house will be brought before the heavens to swear that he did not lay his hand on the goods of his neighbor,
若尋不到賊人，家主應到天主前作證，自己沒有伸手拿原主之物。
9 so as to perpetrate any fraud, such as with an ox, or a donkey, or a sheep, or clothing, nor to do anything that would be able to cause damage. The case of both shall be brought before the heavens. And if they give judgment against him, he shall repay double to his neighbor.
關於任何爭訟案件，不拘是對牛、驢、羊、衣服或任何遺失之物，若一個說：這是我的。兩人的案件應呈到天主前；天主宣佈誰有罪，誰就應加倍賠償。
10 If anyone will have entrusted a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any animal to the keeping of his neighbor, and it will have died, or become disabled, or have been captured by enemies, and no one saw it,
假使有人將驢、牛、羊，或任何牲口託人看守，若有死亡或斷了腿，或被搶走，而又沒有人看見，
11 then there shall be an oath between them, that he did not lay his hand on the goods of his neighbor. And the owner shall accept the oath, and he will not be compelled to make restitution.
應在上主前起誓定斷兩人的案件，證明看守者沒有動手害原主之物；原主若接受起的誓，看守者就不必賠償；

若原主在場，就不必賠償；若是僱來的，已有傭金作賠償。保障人權法
16 If a man has led astray a virgin not yet betrothed, and he has slept with her, he shall pay her dowry and have her as a wife.
假使有人引誘沒有訂婚的處女，而與她同睡，應出聘禮，聘她為妻。

若是苛待了一個，他若向我呼求，我必聽他的呼求，
24 And my fury will be enraged, and I will strike you down with the sword. And your wives will become widows, and your sons will become orphans.
必要發怒，用刀殺死你們：這樣，你們的妻子也要成為寡婦，你們的兒子也要成為孤兒。
25 If you lend money to the poor of my people who live among you, you shall not coerce them like a collector, nor oppress them with usury.
如果你借錢給我的一個百姓，即你中間的一個窮人，你對他不可像放債的人，向他取利。
26 If you take a garment from your neighbor as a pledge, you shall return it to him again before the setting of the sun.
若是你拿了人的外氅作抵押，日落以前，應歸還他，
27 For it is all that he has to cover himself, to clothe his body; nor does he have anything else in which to sleep. If he cries out to me, I will hear him, because I am compassionate.
因為這是他唯一的鋪蓋，是他蓋身的外氅；如果沒有它，他怎樣睡覺呢﹖他若向我呼號，我必俯聽，因為我是仁慈的。
28 You shall not disparage the heavens, and you shall not speak evil of the leader of your people.
不可咒罵天主，不可詛咒你百姓的首長。

對於你牛羊的首生也應這樣行；七天同牠母親在一起，第八天應把牠獻給我。
31 You shall be holy men for me. The flesh, from which beasts will have tasted, you shall not eat, but you will throw it to the dogs.”
你們為我應做聖善的人；田間被野獸撕裂的肉，不可以吃，應扔給狗吃。
