Exodus 22
1 If a man steal an ox or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it: five oxen shall he restore for one ox, and four sheep for one 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 while breaking in, and be smitten so 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; he shall make full restitution; if he have nothing, then shall he 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 thing stolen be actually 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 cause a field or vineyard to be eaten off, and he let his beasts enter, and they feed in another man's field; with the best of his own field, and with 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 a fire break out, and meet with thorns, so that stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed thereby, 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 do deliver unto his neighbor money or vessels to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house: if the thief be found, he shall 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 shall the master of the house be brought unto the judges, [to swear] that he have not stretched out his hand against his neighbor'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, for ox, for ass, for lamb, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, of which he can say, This is it, before the judges shall come the cause of both parties, and he, whom the judges may condemn, shall pay double unto his neighbor.
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 neighbor an ass, or an ox, or a lamb, 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 have not stretched out his hand against his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept this, 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 But 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 as evidence; that which was torn he shall not make good.
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 aught of his neighbor, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof not being 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 a hired thing, the loss is included in its 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 seduce a virgin that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow 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 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 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
Ne boš trpel, da bi čarovnica živela.
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
Kdorkoli leži z živaljo, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, shall be utterly destroyed.
Kdor žrtvuje kateremukoli bogu, razen samo Gospodu, naj bo popolnoma uničen.
21 And a stranger thou shalt not vex, and shalt not oppress him; for strangers ye were in the land of Egypt.
Tujca ne boš niti dražil niti zatiral, kajti tujci ste bili v egiptovski deželi.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
Ne boste stiskali katerekoli vdove ali osirotelega otroka.
23 If thou afflict him in any wise; [for if he cry at all unto me, I will surely hear his cry: ]
Če jih boste na kakršen koli način stiskali in oni kakorkoli kličejo k meni, bom zagotovo slišal njihov klic
24 My wrath shall wax hot, and I will slay 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 thou lend money to my people, to the poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as a lender of money; thou shalt not lay upon him usury.
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 thou take at all thy neighbor's raiment in pledge, thou shalt restore it unto him by the time the sun goeth down;
Če sploh vzameš za jamstvo oblačilo svojega bližnjega, mu ga boš izročil do takrat, ko zahaja sonce.
27 For it is his only covering, it is his raiment for his skin; wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth 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 The judges thou shalt not revile; and a ruler among thy people thou shalt not curse.
Ne boš zasramoval bogov niti preklinjal vladarja svojega ljudstva.
29 The first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors, shalt thou not delay to offer; the first-born of thy sons shalt thou 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 In like manner shalt thou do with thy ox, with thy sheep; seven days it shall be with its dam; on the eighth day thou shalt 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 holy men shall ye be unto me: and flesh that is torn of beasts in the field, shall ye not eat; to the dogs shall ye cast it.
Vi mi boste sveti ljudje niti ne boste jedli kakršnega koli mesa, ki je raztrgano od živali na polju; vrgli ga boste psom.
