< Exodus 21 >
1 NOW these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
“Hicheng se hi Israel mite chon'na ding dan ahiye.
2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
“Hebrew mi soh ding'a na choh teng le, amachun kumgup sungse'a sohna chu atoh jing ding, kumsagi ahung lhin teng vang le soh'a kivul michu chamlhat chang ding che ding ahitai,” ati.
3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
“Soh'a pangpa chu amachang seh seh bou ahileh, amabou kile ding Chule, jineisa ahi khah tah le, ajinu jaona anilhon'na kilhon doh lhon ding ahi.”
4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself.
“Hiche sohpa chu apupan ji aholpeh'a ahile, achate sese leh sohpa jinu chu apupa chang ding, ajona teng le sohpa chu achang seh'a che ding ahi.”
5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
Ahinlah sohpa chu hitia asei ding, ka pupa ahin ka jinu chule ka chate abonchauvin kalha ngaijin,’ chamlhat chang din che da jeng ing'e tia aseija,
6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.
Hichepa chu apupan Pathen heng'a ahin puiding, hiche asohpa chu kotphung gei hihen kotphung khom chang hijongh leh ahin puija, chuteng apupan thihtul khat'a asohpa bilkol a vuhom peh ding, hiche teng chule sohpa chun nilhum keija apupa kin'a kisa lal ding ahiye.
7 And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
Pasal khat bang chun achanu soh ding'a akijoh doh ding'a ahile, amanu chu soh pasal ho bang'a kisol doh lou ding ahi.
8 If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
Hiche sohnu chun apupa lunglhaina mong mong aboldoh jou lou ding'a ahile, apupan jong mi dang akilhat doh sah thei jeng ding, apupan hiche sohnu chu kitahna nei louvin anabol tan ahile amanu chu apupan jong gamchom ma joh doh son nading ima agel lou ding ahi.
9 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
“Ahinlah hiche sohnu chu apupan achapa sohnu a pang ding a agella ahile amanu chu achanu ngai ngai banga bol ding ahiye.”
10 If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
“Ibang khat a achapa chun amading'a ji achom akipui khah tah a ahile, sohnu chu aji hina'a an-neh ding, sil-le-chen ding leh athaneina ima asuhnem peh chom lou ding ahi.”
11 And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
“Asohnu dinga chu hicheng thum hochu abolpeh louva ahile, asohnu chun bat ima neilouva sum jong pelouva adalhah jeng thei ding ahi.”
12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.
“Khat touvin midang chun'a akhut alha khah'a ahile, akhut lhapa chu tha teitei ding ahi.”
13 And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver him into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
“Ahinlah kihetkhelna maimaija konna ahile, hichu Pathen in amosah lou ding, keiman nangma munding kasem pehsa nahiye atia ahile hiche laimuna chu mivolihpa jamlut'a kihuh hing thei ding ahi.”
14 But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
“Amavang, khat touvin aloipa hamkhat chu atha jeng'a ahile, hiche mithat pachu keima maicham phung'a konna tha ding'a napuidoh ding ahi, ati.”
15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
“Koi hile, anuham apa ham vo'a achung'a khut lha aumma ahile ama chu tha jeng ding ahi.”
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
“Mihem gumang aum'a, amiguhpa bang chu ana johdoh tah'a chule akomma ana um nah laiya, akomma aum pet hichu amatoh kimudoh khom hijong leh, akimu doh pachu tha jeng ding ahiye.”
17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
“Koiman anu apa a engbol thei lou ding amavang anu engbol mihem chu tha jeng ding ahiye.”
18 And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
“Tun, Pasal khat le pasal khat akinah a, khatpan jong khat pachu song tum'a asuh ham akhut tumma akhet hamma ahile hiche amisuh pachu thipei dehlouva ahile jalkhun anga ding ahi.”
19 If he rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote him be quit: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed.
“Ahinlah alhupa chu ahung kitho doh'a tenggol mangcha a ava le theiya ahile, ama anasukhapa chu achungchang kisutheng thei ding, anat nasung'a aki jenna phat mansah chengse alepeh ding chule ajen dam sel ding ahiye.”
20 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
“Mihem khat touvin asohpa ham asohnu ham chung'a khut alha'a athikhah a ahile, soh neipa chu thina chang ding ahiye.”
21 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
“Ahinlah hiche soh kijep penchu nikhat ahilou le nini sung'a adam theng tah'a ahile, sohchung'a khut lha mihem chu thina chang lou ding ahiye. Ajeh chu soh kivul michu ama nei gou khat ahi.”
22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
“Tun tekah nan, Pasal khat le pasal khat akinah tan, numei naovop lai chu asuh khah tah lhonna anaovop chu kisuhmo'a aphat louva ahungpot doh khah tah le, numeinu suhkha penpen chu ajipan jong anop channa aman adel khum jeng thei ahi. Ahinlah apeh ding chengse chu thutan vaihom hon aphatsah peh'u angaiye.”
23 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
“Amavang numeinu kisuklhahna khonung'a ahung nat khat tah ahile: hiche hinkho khel ding'a chu hin kho khat ma lepeh ding ahi.”
24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Mitchang khella michang hiding, haa khella haa hiding, khut khel la khut hiding, keng khel la kengg na peh ding ahi,
25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
Meiyin akah'a ahile meikah jeh'a meiya nale peh ding, kimavo jeh'a namavoa chule kijep jeh'a chu nale jep jeng ding ahi, ati.
26 And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake.
“Mihem koitobang khat chun asohpa ahilou leh asohnu ham mit asuh khah peh'a ahile, hiche soh chu amit adam loutah jeh'a chamlhat ding'a asol doh jeng ding ahiye.”
27 And if he smite out his manservant’s tooth, or his maidservant’s tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth’s sake.
“Soh goiya pang pan jong asohnu ham, asohpa ham khat achu ahaa asuhlhoi peh a hile, ahaa asuh lhopipeh tah jeh'a hiche sohpa ham sohnu ham chu chmalhat chansah ding'a asol doh ding ahitai.”
28 If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
“Bongchal khattou vin numei ham pasal ham khat chu aki'a ahin pihlih khah'a ahile, hiche bongchal chu song'a selih jeng ding ahiye. Amavang bongsa chu koiman aneh theilou ding chuteng bong neipa ding'a achungchang thu kisutheng ahitai,” ati.
29 But if the ox were wont to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
“Ahinlah hiche bongchal chun masang kisanna mihem dang ana pihlih sa ahileh, aneipa jeng'in jong anahsah lou ahitah leh, hiche bongchal in jong numei ham pasal ham chu aki a apihlih khah'a ahileh, bongchal chu thadoh jeng ding chule aneipa jeng jong anigel la tha teitei lhon ding ahiye.”
30 If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
Amavang athipa chu longlhat na ding'a aki peh doh'a ahile, aki pehdoh sah jatchu aman jong long lhatna ding'a apeh ding ahi.”
31 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
“Hiche bongchal chun numei ham pasal ham khat ahin peh lih khah bang le, hiche gancha neipa chu dan kisem dungjuija kitham gah ding ahi.”
32 If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
“Bongchal chun soh numeija pang ham pasal ham khat chu ahin pihlih bang leh, bongchal neipan jong sohneipa chu dangka shekel somthum apeh teitei ding chule hiche bongchal chu song'a aselih pai jeng ding ahi.”
33 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall therein;
“Tekah nan mikhat chun kokhuh khah bit louva adalhah jeng'a chule hiche kokhuh sin kikhah bit louva adalhah'a sangan ham bongchal ham kokhuh'a alhah lut'a athi den tah'a ahileh,
34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his.
“Kokhuh neipan jong aphat toh kitoh chatna asem phat ding, gancha neipa jong sum apeh ding, a gancha pohlih vang chu ama chang ding ahi.”
35 And if one man’s ox hurt another’s, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide.
“Mihem khat bongchal chun mi dang khat bongchal a suhkhah a asuh khah bongchal chu athi jeng'a ahile, bong nei ten jong hiche bong chal athinai louchu akijoh doh diu aki johdohna man vang chu kihom lhon ding, hiche bongchal thisa jeng jong chu aman kihom lhon ding ahi.”
36 Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.
“Ahinlah hiche bongchal chun masang jeng'ajong gancha dang ana pihlih jeng'a ahile, aneipa jeng in jong ahilchahsa ahi a chule ngaisah'a akoi louva ahile, anei pan jong bongchal thi chu bongchal khat mama'a alesah ding, bongchal thisa vang chu ama chang teitei ding ahiye.”
