Exodus 21
1 Now these are the lawes, which thou shalt set before them:
“Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn òfin tí ìwọ yóò gbé sí iwájú wọn.
2 If thou bye an Ebrewe seruant, he shall serue sixe yeres, and in the seuenth he shall go out free, for nothing.
“Bí ìwọ bá yá ọkùnrin Heberu ní ìwẹ̀fà, òun yóò sìn ọ́ fún ọdún mẹ́fà. Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún keje, òun yóò lọ ni òmìnira láìsan ohunkóhun padà.
3 If he came himselfe alone, he shall goe out himselfe alone: if hee were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
Bí ó bá wá ní òun nìkan, òun nìkan náà ni yóò padà lọ ní òmìnira; ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá mú ìyàwó wá, ó ní láti mú ìyàwó rẹ̀ padà lọ.
4 If his master haue giuen him a wife, and she hath borne him sonnes or daughters, he wife and her children shalbe her masters, but he shall goe out himselfe alone.
Bí olówó rẹ̀ bá fún un ní aya, tí aya náà sì bímọ ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, aya àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ti olówó rẹ̀, yóò sì lọ ní òmìnira ní òun nìkan.
5 But if the seruant saye thus, I loue my master, my wife and my children, I will not goe out free,
“Bí ẹrú náà bá sì wí ní gbangba pé, mo fẹ́ràn olúwa mi, ìyàwó mi àti àwọn ọmọ, èmi kò sì fẹ́ ẹ́ gba òmìnira mọ́,
6 Then his master shall bring him vnto the Iudges, and set him to the dore, or to the poste, and his master shall bore his eare through with a nawle, and he shall serue him for euer.
nígbà náà ni olúwa rẹ̀ yóò mu wá sí iwájú ìdájọ́. Òun yóò sì mú un lọ sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà tàbí lọ sí ibi ọ̀wọ̀n, yóò sì fi ìlu lu etí rẹ̀, òun yóò sì máa sin olówó rẹ̀ títí ayé.
7 Likewise if a man sell his daughter to be a seruant, she shall not goe out as the men seruantes doe.
“Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ta ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ bí ìwẹ̀fà, ọmọbìnrin yìí kò ní gba òmìnira bí i ti ọmọkùnrin.
8 If shee please not her master, who hath betrothed her to him selfe, then shall hee cause to buy her: hee shall haue no power to sell her to a strange people, seeing he despised her.
Bí òun kò bá sì tẹ́ olówó rẹ̀ lọ́rùn, ẹni tí ó fẹ́ ẹ fún ara rẹ̀, yóò jẹ́ kí wọn ó rà á padà, òun kò ní ẹ̀tọ́ láti tà á bí ẹrú fún àjèjì, nítorí pé òun ni kò ṣe ojúṣe rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìwẹ̀fà náà.
9 But if he hath betrothed her vnto his sonne, he shall deale with her according to the custome of the daughters.
Bí ó bá fẹ́ ẹ fún ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀, kò ní máa lò ó bí ìwẹ̀fà mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n yóò máa ṣe sí i gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọmọ rẹ̀ obìnrin.
10 If he take him another wife, he shall not diminish her foode, her rayment, and recompence of her virginitie.
Bí ó bá fẹ́ obìnrin mìíràn, kò gbọdọ̀ kùnà ojúṣe rẹ̀ nípa fífún un ní oúnjẹ àti aṣọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò gbọdọ̀ kùnà ojúṣe rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkọ sí aya.
11 And if he do not these three vnto her, the shall she go out free, paying no money.
Bí ó bá kùnà láti ṣe àwọn nǹkan mẹ́ta wọ̀nyí fún un, òun yóò lọ ní òmìnira láìsan owó kankan padà.
12 He that smiteth a man, and he die, shall dye the death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá lu arákùnrin rẹ̀ pa, pípa ni a ó pa á.
13 And if a man hath not layed wayte, but God hath offered him into his hande, then I wil appoynt thee a place whither he shall flee.
Ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá mọ̀ ọ́n mọ̀ pa á, tí ó bá jẹ́ àmúwá Ọlọ́run ni, òun yóò lọ sí ibi tí èmi yóò yàn fún un.
14 But if a man come presumptuously vpon his neighbour to slay him with guile, thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá mú arákùnrin rẹ̀, tí ó sì fi ẹ̀tàn pa á. Ẹ mú un kúrò ní iwájú pẹpẹ mi kí ẹ sì pa á.
15 Also hee that smiteth his father or his mother, shall die the death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, pípa ni a ó pa á.
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, if it be founde with him, shall die the death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni ti ó bá jí ènìyàn gbé, tí ó sì tà á tàbí tí ó fi pamọ́, pípa ni a ó pa á.
17 And hee that curseth his father or his mother, shall die the death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ṣépè fún baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, pípa ni a ó pa á.
18 When men also striue together, and one smite another with a stone, or with the fist, and he die not, but lieth in bed,
“Bí àwọn ọkùnrin méjì bá ń jà, ti ọ̀kan sọ òkúta tàbí fi ìkùùkuu lu ẹnìkejì rẹ̀, tí ó sì pa á lára, ti irú ìpalára bẹ́ẹ̀ mu kí ó wà lórí ìdùbúlẹ̀ àìsàn.
19 If hee rise againe and walke without vpon his staffe, then shall he that smote him go quite, saue onely hee shall beare his charges for his resting, and shall pay for his healing.
Ẹni tó lu ẹnìkejì rẹ̀ kò ní ní ẹ̀bi, níwọ̀n ìgbà ti ẹni tí a lù bá ti lè dìde, tí ó sì lé è fi ọ̀pá ìtìlẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ rìn káàkiri. Ẹni náà ni láti san owó ti ó fi tọ́jú ara rẹ̀ padà fún un, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ara rẹ̀ bá ti yá tan pátápátá.
20 And if a man smite his seruant, or his maide with a rod, and he die vnder his hande, he shalbe surely punished.
“Bí ọkùnrin kan bá fi ọ̀pá lu ẹrúkùnrin tàbí ẹrúbìnrin rẹ̀, ti ẹrú náà sì kú lójú ẹsẹ̀, a ó fi ìyà jẹ ẹ́.
21 But if he continue a day, or two dayes, hee shall not be punished: for he is his money.
Ṣùgbọ́n a kò ní fi ìyà jẹ ẹ́, ti ẹrú náà bá yè, tí ó dìde lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ kan tàbí méjì, nítorí ẹrú náà jẹ́ dúkìá rẹ̀.
22 Also if men striue and hurt a woman with childe, so that her childe depart from her, and death follow not, hee shall bee surely punished according as the womans husband shall appoynt him, or he shall pay as the Iudges determine.
“Bí àwọn ènìyàn ti ń jà bá pa aboyún lára, tí aboyún náà bá bímọ láìpé ọjọ́, ṣùgbọ́n tí kò sí aburú mìíràn mọ́ lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, ẹni tí ó fa ìpalára yìí yóò san iyekíye tí ọkọ aboyún náà bá béèrè fún, bí ilé ẹjọ́ bá ṣe gbà láààyè gẹ́gẹ́ bí owó ìtánràn.
23 But if death follow, then thou shalt paye life for life,

24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hande for hand, foote for foote,
Ojú fún ojú, eyín fún eyín, ọwọ́ fún ọwọ́, ẹsẹ̀ fún ẹsẹ̀,
25 Burning for burning, wound for wounde, stripe for stripe.
ìjóná fún ìjóná, ọgbẹ́ fún ọgbẹ́, ìnà fún ìnà.
26 And if a man smite his seruant in the eie, or his maide in the eye, and hath perished it, hee shall let him goe free for his eye.
“Bí ọkùnrin kan bá lu ẹrúkùnrin tàbí ẹrúbìnrin rẹ̀ ní ojú, ti ojú náà sì fọ́, ó ni láti jẹ́ kí ẹrú náà lọ ní òmìnira fún ìtánràn ojú rẹ̀ ti ó fọ́.
27 Also if he smite out his seruants tooth, or his maides tooth, he shall let him goe out free for his tooth.
Bí ó bá sì lu ẹrúkùnrin tàbí ẹrúbìnrin rẹ̀ ti eyín rẹ̀ fi ká, ó ni láti jẹ́ kí ó lọ ní òmìnira ni ìtánràn fún eyín rẹ̀ tí ó ká.
28 If an oxe gore a man or a woman, that he die, the oxe shalbe stoned to death, and his flesh shall not be eaten, but the owner of the oxe shall goe quite.
“Bí akọ màlúù bá kan ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin kan pa, a ó sọ akọ màlúù náà ní òkúta pa, a kò sì gbọdọ̀ jẹ ẹran rẹ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n a kò ní dá ẹni tí ó ni akọ màlúù náà lẹ́bi, ọrùn oní akọ màlúù náà yóò sì mọ́.
29 If the oxe were wont to push in times past, and it hath bene tolde his master, and hee hath not kept him, and after he killeth a man or a woman, the oxe shall be stoned, and his owner shall die also.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá ti di ìgbà gbogbo ti akọ màlúù náà ti máa ń kan ènìyàn, tí a sì ti ń kìlọ̀ fún olówó rẹ̀, ti olówó rẹ̀ kò sì mú un so, tí ó bá kan ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin pa, a ó sọ akọ màlúù náà ní òkúta pa, a ó sì pa olówó rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.
30 If there be set to him a summe of mony, then he shall pay the raunsome of his life, whatsoeuer shalbe laied vpon him.
Bí àwọn ará ilé ẹni tí ó kú bá béèrè fún owó ìtánràn, yóò san iye owó tí wọ́n bá ní kí ó san fún owó ìtánràn láti fi ra ẹ̀mí ara rẹ̀ padà.
31 Whether he hath gored a sonne or gored a daughter, he shalbe iudged after the same maner.
Bí akọ màlúù bá kan ọmọkùnrin tàbí ọmọbìnrin pa, a ó ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin yìí ti là á kalẹ̀.
32 If the oxe gore a seruant or a mayde, hee shall giue vnto their master thirtie shekels of siluer, and the oxe shalbe stoned.

33 And when a man shall open a well, or when he shall dig a pit and couer it not, and an oxe or an asse fall therein,
“Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ṣí kòtò sílẹ̀ láìbò tàbí kí ó gbẹ́ kòtò sílẹ̀ láìbò, tí màlúù tàbí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ bọ́ sínú kòtò náà.
34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and giue money to the owners thereof, but the dead beast shalbe his.
Ẹni tí ó ni kòtò yóò san owó àdánù yìí fún ẹni tí ó ni ẹran. Òkú ẹran náà yóò sì di tirẹ̀.
35 And if a mans oxe hurt his neighbours oxe that he die, then they shall sel the liue oxe, and deuide the money thereof, and the dead oxe also they shall deuide.
“Bí akọ màlúù ọkùnrin kan bá pa akọ màlúù ẹlòmíràn lára tí ó sì kú, wọn yóò ta akọ màlúù tó wà láààyè, wọn yóò sì pín owó èyí tiwọn tà àti ẹran èyí tí ó kú dọ́gbadọ́gba.
36 Or if it bee knowen that the oxe hath vsed to push in times past, and his master hath not kept him, he shall pay oxe for oxe, but the dead shall be his owne.
