Exodus 21
1 And these [are] the ordinances which you shall set before them.
“Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn òfin tí ìwọ yóò gbé sí iwájú wọn.
2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you, and in the seventh year he shall go forth 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 should have come in alone, he shall also go forth alone; and if his wife should have gone in together with him, his wife also shall go out.
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 Moreover, if his master give him a wife, and she have [born] him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be his master's; and he shall go forth 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 And if the servant should answer and say, I love my master and wife and children, I will not go away 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 his master shall bring him to the judgment-seat of God, and then shall he bring him to the door, —to the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.
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 And if any one sell his daughter as a domestic, she shall not depart as the maidservants depart.
“Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ta ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ bí ìwẹ̀fà, ọmọbìnrin yìí kò ní gba òmìnira bí i ti ọmọkùnrin.
8 If she be not pleasing to her master, after she has betrothed herself to him, he shall let her go free; but he is not at liberty to sell her to a foreign nation, because he has trifled with 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 And if he should have betrothed her to his son, he shall do to her according to the right of 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 And if he take another to himself, he shall not deprive her of necessaries and her apparel, and her companionship [with him].
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 will not do these three things to her, she shall go out free without money.
Bí ó bá kùnà láti ṣe àwọn nǹkan mẹ́ta wọ̀nyí fún un, òun yóò lọ ní òmìnira láìsan owó kankan padà.
12 And if any man strike another and he die, let him be certainly put to death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá lu arákùnrin rẹ̀ pa, pípa ni a ó pa á.
13 But as for him that did it not willingly, but God delivered him into his hands, I will give you a place whither the slayer may 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 And if any one lie in wait for his neighbor to kill him by craft, and he go for refuge, you shall take him from my altar to put him to death.
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 Whoever smites his father or his mother, let him be certainly put to death.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, pípa ni a ó pa á.
16 He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni ti ó bá jí ènìyàn gbé, tí ó sì tà á tàbí tí ó fi pamọ́, pípa ni a ó pa á.
17 Whosoever shall steal one of the children of Israel, and prevail over him and sell him, and he be found with him, let him certainly die.
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ṣépè fún baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, pípa ni a ó pa á.
18 And if two men revile each other and strike the one the other with a stone or his fist, and he die not, but be laid upon his 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 the man arise and walk abroad on his staff, he that struck him shall be clear; only he shall pay for his loss of time, and 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 strike his man-servant or his maidservant, with a rod, and [the party] die under his hands, he shall be 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 [the servant] continue to live a day or two, let not [the master] 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 And if two men strive and strike a woman with child, and her child be born imperfectly formed, he shall be forced to pay a penalty: as the woman's husband may lay upon him, he shall pay with a valuation.
“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 it be perfectly formed, he shall give life for life,
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ìpalára náà bá yọrí sí ikú aboyún náà, pípa ni a ó pa ẹni ti ó fa ikú aboyún náà.
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Ojú fún ojú, eyín fún eyín, ọwọ́ fún ọwọ́, ẹsẹ̀ fún ẹsẹ̀,
25 burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
ìjóná fún ìjóná, ọgbẹ́ fún ọgbẹ́, ìnà fún ìnà.
26 And if one strike the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his maidservant, and put it out, he shall let them go free for their eye's sake.
“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 And if he should strike out the tooth of his man-servant, or the tooth of his maidservant, he shall send them away free for their tooth's sake.
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 And if a bull gore a man or woman and they die, the bull shall be stoned with stones, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall be clear.
“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 But if the bull should have been given to goring in former time, and men should have told his owner, and he have not removed him, but he should have slain a man or woman, the bull 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 And if a ransom should be imposed on him, he shall pay for the ransom of his soul as much as they shall lay upon 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 And if [the bull] gore a son or daughter, let them do to him according to this ordinance.
Bí akọ màlúù bá kan ọmọkùnrin tàbí ọmọbìnrin pa, a ó ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin yìí ti là á kalẹ̀.
32 And if the bull gore a man-servant or maidservant, he shall pay to their master thirty silver didrachmas, and the bull shall be stoned.
Bí akọ màlúù bá kan ẹrúkùnrin tàbí ẹrúbìnrin pa, olówó rẹ̀ yóò san ọgbọ̀n ṣékélì fàdákà fún ẹni tó ni ẹrú, a ó sì sọ akọ màlúù náà ni òkúta pa.
33 And if any one open a pit or dig a cavity in stone, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall in there,
“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 compensation; he shall give money to their owner, and the dead shall be his own.
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 any man's bull gore the bull of his neighbor, and it die, they shall sell the living bull and divide the money, and they shall divide the dead bull.
“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 But if the bull be known to have been given to goring in time past, and they have testified to his owner, and he have not removed him, he shall repay bull for bull, but the dead shall be his own.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá ti di ìgbà gbogbo tí akọ màlúù náà máa ń kan òmíràn, tí olówó rẹ̀ kò sì mú un so, olówó rẹ̀ yóò san ẹran dípò ẹran. Ẹran tí ó kú yóò sì jẹ́ tirẹ̀.
