Exodus 22
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
Če bo človek ukradel vola ali ovco in to zakolje ali proda, naj povrne pet volov za vola in štiri ovce za ovco.
2 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
Če je najden tat, da vlamlja in je udarjen, da umre, potem naj zanj ne bo prelite nobene krvi.
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
Če je nad njim vstalo sonce, naj bo zanj prelita kri, kajti moral bi narediti popolno povračilo. Če nima ničesar, potem naj bo prodan za svojo tatvino.
4 If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
Če je tatvina v njegovi roki zagotovo najdena živa, bodisi je to vol ali osel ali ovca, naj povrne dvojno.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
Če bo človek polju ali vinogradu povzročil, da bo požrto in bo vanj postavil svojo žival, pa se bo pasla na polju drugega človeka, naj povrne od najboljšega svojega lastnega polja in od najboljšega svojega lastnega vinograda.
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
Če izbruhne ogenj in zajame trnje, tako da so s tem použite kopice žita ali stoječe žito ali polje, naj tisti, ki je zanetil ogenj, zagotovo naredi povračilo.
7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
Če bo človek izročil svojemu bližnjemu v hrambo denar ali stvari, pa bo to ukradeno iz človekove hiše; če bo tat najden, naj plača dvojno.
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
Če tat ne bo najden, potem naj bo gospodar hiše priveden k sodnikom, da vidijo, ali je svojo roko položil na dobrine svojega bližnjega.
9 For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing which another challenges to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
Kajti vse vrste prekrški, bodisi je to za vola, za osla, za ovco, za oblačilo ali za katerokoli vrsto izgubljene stvari, za katero drug zatrjuje, da je njegova, naj zadeva obeh strani pride pred sodnike. In kogar bodo sodniki obsodili, naj svojemu bližnjemu plača dvojno.
10 If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
Če človek svojemu bližnjemu izroči osla ali vola ali ovco ali katerokoli žival v varstvo, pa ta pogine ali je ranjena ali odpeljana proč [in] noben človek tega ne vidi,
11 Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he has not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
potem naj bo Gospodova prisega med njima obema, da svoje roke ni položil na dobrine svojega bližnjega. Njegov lastnik bo od tega sprejel, oni pa tega ne bo povrnil.
12 And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
Če je to od njega ukradeno, naj od tega lastniku naredi povračilo.
13 If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
Če bo to raztrgano na koščke, potem naj to prinese kot pričevanje, on pa ne bo povrnil tega, kar je bilo raztrgano.
14 And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
Če si človek karkoli izposodi od svojega bližnjega in je to poškodovano ali pogine, pa njegov lastnik ni bil s tem, naj on to zagotovo povrne.
15 But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
Vendar, če je bil lastnik od tega z njim, naj on tega ne povrne. Če je bila najeta stvar, je ta prišla za njegovo najemnino.
16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely secure her to be his wife.
Če mož privabi devico, ki ni zaročena in leži z njo, naj jo zagotovo oskrbi z doto, da postane njegova žena
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Če njen oče popolnoma odklanja, da mu jo da, naj plača denar glede na doto devic.
18 You shall not suffer a witch to live.
Ne boš trpel, da bi čarovnica živela.
19 Whosoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.
Kdorkoli leži z živaljo, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
20 He that sacrifices unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
Kdor žrtvuje kateremukoli bogu, razen samo Gospodu, naj bo popolnoma uničen.
21 You shall neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for all of you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Tujca ne boš niti dražil niti zatiral, kajti tujci ste bili v egiptovski deželi.
22 All of you shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
Ne boste stiskali katerekoli vdove ali osirotelega otroka.
23 If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
Če jih boste na kakršen koli način stiskali in oni kakorkoli kličejo k meni, bom zagotovo slišal njihov klic
24 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
in moj bes se bo razvnel in ubil vas bom z mečem; in vaše žene bodo vdove in vaši otroci sirote.
25 If you lend money to any of my people that is poor by you, you shall not be to him as an usurer, neither shall you lay upon him interest.
Če komurkoli izmed mojega ljudstva, ki je poleg tebe ubog, posodiš denar, do njega ne bodi kakor oderuh niti nanj ne nalagaj obresti.
26 If you at all take your neighbour's raiment to pledge, you shall deliver it unto him by that the sun goes down:
Če sploh vzameš za jamstvo oblačilo svojega bližnjega, mu ga boš izročil do takrat, ko zahaja sonce.
27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he cries unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
Kajti to je njegovo edino pokrivalo, to je njegovo oblačilo za njegovo kožo. V čem bo spal? In zgodilo se bo, ko kliče k meni, da bom slišal, kajti jaz sem milostljiv.
28 You shall not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of your people.
Ne boš zasramoval bogov niti preklinjal vladarja svojega ljudstva.
29 You shall not delay to offer the first of your ripe fruits, and of your liquors: the firstborn of your sons shall you give unto me.
Ne boš odlašal darovati prvin od svojih zrelih sadov in od svojih žganih pijač. Prvorojenega izmed svojih sinov boš dal meni.
30 Likewise shall you do with your oxen, and with your sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day you shall give it me.
Podobno boš storil s svojimi voli in s svojimi ovcami. Sedem dni naj bo ta s svojo materjo, na osmi dan pa ga boš dal meni.
31 And all of you shall be holy men unto me: neither shall all of you eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; all of you shall cast it to the dogs.
Vi mi boste sveti ljudje niti ne boste jedli kakršnega koli mesa, ki je raztrgano od živali na polju; vrgli ga boste psom.
