Exodus 21
1 “These are the regulations you are to present to them:
“Sang oakwuk inge nu sin mwet Israel:
2 If you buy a Hebrew slave, he is to work for you for six years. But in the seventh year, he is to be freed without having to pay anything.
Kom fin moli sie mukul Hebrew in sie mwet kohs lom, el ac orekma nu sum ke yac onkosr. Ke yac se akitkosr, kom fah aksukosokyalla ac el tia enenu in moli kutena ma nu sum.
3 If he was single when he came, he is to leave single. If he had a wife when he came, she is to leave with him.
El fin tia mwet payuk se ke el mutawauk in kulansap nu sum, el fah tia eis mutan kial welul ke pacl se el ac som. Tusruktu el fin payuk tari ke pacl se el mutawauk in kulansupwekom, el ku in us mutan kial welul.
4 If his master provides him a wife and she has children with him, the woman and her children shall belong to her master, and only the man shall be freed.
Mwet kacto lal fin sang sie mutan kial ac mutan sac el oswela wen ku acn, na mutan sac ac tulik natul eltal ma na lun mwet kacto lal, na mukul sac fah mukena som.
5 However, if the slave formally states, ‘I love my master and my wife and children; I do not want to be freed,’
Tusruktu mwet kohs sac fin akkalemye lah el lungse mwet kacto lal ac mutan kial ac tulik natul, ac el tia lungse in sukosokla
6 then his master is to take him before the judges. Then he shall have him stand against the door or doorpost and use a metal tool to make a hole in his ear. Then he shall work for his master for life.
na mwet kacto lal uh fah usal som nu ke nien alu nu sin God. El ac fah oru tuh mwet kohs sac in tu ke srungul uh ku ke sukan srungul uh, ac putala sie pat ah ke insracl. Na mukul sac fah mwet kohs lal ke lusenna moul lal.
7 If a man sells his daughter as a slave, she is not to be freed in the same way as male slaves.
Sie mukul fin kukakin acn natul tuh elan sie mutan kohs, mutan sac fah tia ku in aksukosokyeyuk oana mukul kohs uh.
8 If the man who chose her for himself is not pleased with her, he must let her be bought back. He is not permitted to sell her to foreigners, since he has been unfair to her.
El fin kukakinyukla nu sin sie mukul su nunku mu el ac payuk sel, a tok el tia insewowo sel, na mukul sac el fah sifilpa kukakunulang nu sin papa tumal. El tia ku in kukakunulla nu sin mwetsac, mweyen mwet kacto sac el tuh tia akfalye wulela lal.
9 If he chooses to give her to his son, he must treat her as a daughter.
Sie mukul fin moli sie mutan kohs in sang nu sin wen natul, el enenu in oru nu sel oana sie acn natul.
10 If he takes another woman, he must not reduce the food and clothing allowances and marital rights of the first.
Mukul se fin eis sie mutan tuh in mutan akluo kial, el tia enenu in aksrikyela ma el sang nu sin mutan se meet kial ke mwe mongo, nuknuk, ac suwohs lun payuk lal.
11 If he doesn't give her these three things, she is free to leave without paying anything.
Mukul sac el fin tia akfalye ma tolu inge nu sin mutan se meet ah, el enenu in fuhlella elan sukosokla, ac tia eis kutena mwe moul.
12 Anyone who hits and kills someone else must be executed.
“Kutena mwet su puokya sie mwet ac unilya, el ac fah anwuki.
13 However, if it wasn't intentional and God let it happen, then I will arrange a place for you where they can run to and be safe.
Tusruktu fin ma ongla ouiya se, ac tia ma el oru in unilya se, el ku in kaingla nu yen se su nga fah fahkak nu sum, ac el fah ku in muta in misla we.
14 But if someone deliberately plans and purposely kills another, you must take them away from my altar and execute them.
Tusruktu mwet se fin foloyak ac uniya sie pac mwet ke el oru na in oaya, na in anwuki el, el finne kaing nwe ke loang luk in molella.
15 Anyone who hits their father or mother must be executed.
“Kutena mwet su puokya papa tumal ku nina kial fah anwuki.
16 Anyone who kidnaps someone else must be executed, whether the victim is sold or is still in their possessions.
“Kutena mwet su pisrala sie mwet, finne in kukakunulla ku in sruokilya tuh elan mwet kohs se lal, el ac fah anwuki.
17 Anyone who despises their father or mother must be executed.
“Kutena mwet su selngawi papa tumal ku nina kial, el ac fah anwuki.
18 If men are fighting and one hits the other with a stone or with his fist, and the injured man doesn't die but has to stay in bed,
“Fin oasr sie alein ac sie mwet ah srukak eot se tukya mwet se ngia ku fiskilya, ac mwet sac tiana misa a el oanna maskin,
19 and then gets up and walks around outside with his walking stick, then the one who hit him won't be punished, Even so, he must still compensate the man for the time lost from his work and make sure that he's completely healed.
na ac wangin mwatan mwet se ma oru ah. Tok ke mwet mas sac tukakek ac fahsr likinuma ke sikal lal, na mwet se ma puokilya ah enenu in moli ke pacl el sisla in mas lal, ac liyalang nwe ke el kwela.
20 Anyone who hits their male or female slave with a rod, and the slave dies as a result, must be punished.
“Sie mwet kacto fin srukak sak soko ac uni mwet kohs lal, mukul ku mutan, ac mwet kohs sac misa na in sac, enenu na in oasr kai nu sin mwet kacto sac.
21 However, if after a day or two the slave gets better, the owner won't be punished because the slave is their property.
Tusruktu mwet kohs sac fin tia misa ke len se ku luo, mwet kacto sac tia enenu in kaiyuk, mweyen mwet kohs sac el oaoa in sie kufwen mwe orekma lun mwet kacto sac.
22 If men who are fighting happen to hit a pregnant woman so she gives birth prematurely, but no serious injury occurs, he must be fined whatever amount the woman's husband demands and as permitted by the judges.
“Fin oasr mwet anwuk twe sun sie mutan pitutu, oru tulik natul putatla tusruk wangin pac acn musalla ke mutan sac, mwet se ma pwanang ma sikyak nu sel fah moli lupa se na ma mukul tumal el pakiya, fin akkeyeyukla sin mwet nununku.
23 But if a serious injury does occur, then you must pay a life for a life,
Tuh mutan sac fin oasr pac acn musalla kacl, kaiyuk nu kac uh pa moul molin moul,
24 an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
atronmuta molin atronmuta, wihs molin wihs, po molin po, nia molin nia,
25 a burn for a burn, a wound for a wound, and a bruise for a bruise.
folla molin folla, kinet molin kinet, futun molin futun.
26 Anyone who hits their male or female slave in the eye and blinds them must free the slave as compensation for the eye.
“Sie mwet kacto fin fiskiya atronmutun mukul ku mutan kohs lal ac pusisla, mwet kacto sac fah aksukosokyela mwet kohs sac in sang moli atronmutal.
27 Anyone who knocks out the tooth of their male or female slave must free the slave as compensation for the tooth.
Sie mwet kacto fin fuskela soko wihsen mwet kol lal, mwet kacto sac fah aksukosokye mwet kohs sac in sang moli wihs soko ah.
28 If an ox uses its horns to kill a man or woman, the ox must be stoned to death, and its meat must not be eaten. But the owner of the ox won't be punished.
“Soko cow mukul fin fakisya sie mwet in misa, cow soko enenu in tatngal nwe ke misa, ac ikwal ac tia mongo, ac mwet se natu ah fah tia kaiyuk.
29 But if the ox has repeatedly hurt people with its horns, and its owner has been warned but still doesn't keep it under control, and it kills a man or woman, then the ox must be stoned to death and its owner must also be executed.
Tusruk cow mukul soko ah fin pahlana in fakfuk mwet, ac fwackyang nu sin mwet se natu ah a el tiana kalilya in kalkal — na cow soko ah fin fakisya mwet se in misa, el ac fah tungalyuk nwe ke el misa, ac mwet se natu fah anwuki pac.
30 But if instead the payment of compensation is required, the owner may buy back his or her life by paying the full amount of compensation demanded.
Tusruktu, fin wotyang nu sin mwet se natu ah sie lupan mani elan moli in molela moul lal, na el enenu in molela nufonna lupa sac.
31 If the ox uses its horns and kills a son or a daughter the same rule is applicable.
Cow mukul soko uh fin uniya tulik mukul se ku tulik mutan se, ma sap sacna pa ac orekmakinyuk nu kac.
32 If the ox uses its horns and kills a male or female slave, the owner of the ox must pay thirty shekels of silver to the slave's master, and the ox must be stoned to death.
Cow mukul soko ah fin uniya sie mwet kohs, mukul ku mutan, mwet se natu cow soko ah fah moli nu sin mwet se la mwet kohs sac ke ipin silver tolngoul, ac cow soko ah fah tatngal nwe ke misa.
33 If someone removes the cover of a cistern or digs one and doesn't cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls into it,
“Mwet se fin eisla afyuf ke sie luf, ku el fin pikin sie luf ac tia afinya, ac soko cow mukul ku soko donkey putatyang nu loac,
34 the owner of the pit must pay compensation to the animal's owner and keep the dead animal.
el enenu in moli kosro soko ah. El ac fah moli nu sin mwet se natu, ac kosro misa soko ah fah ma lal.
35 If someone's ox injures another's ox and it dies, they must sell the live one and share money received; they must also share the dead animal.
Fin cow mukul soko nutin mwet se uniya cow mukul soko nutin siena mwet, mukul luo ac fah kukakunla cow soko ma moul ah, ac kitalik mani sac. Eltal fah kitalik pac ikwen cow mukul misa soko ah.
36 But if it was known that the ox had repeatedly hurt people with its horns, and its owner had been warned but still didn't keep it under control, full compensation must be paid, ox for ox, but the owner can keep the dead animal.”
Tusruktu fin eteyuk lah cow mukul soko inge lungsena anwuk, ac mwet se natu ah tiana kalsalak, el enenu in sang soko cow mukul ma moul in akfalye nu sin mwet se natu cow soko ma misa ah.
