Exodus 22
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
人もし牛あるひは羊を竊みてこれを殺し又は賣る時は五の牛をもて一の牛を賠ひ四の羊をもて一の羊を賠ふべし
2 If the thief be found breaking in, and be smitten that he die, there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him.
もし盗賊の壞り入るを見てこれを撃て死しむる時はこれがために血をながすに及ばず
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be bloodguiltiness for him: he should make restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
然ど若日いでてよりならば之がために血をながすべし盗賊は全く償をなすべし若物あらざる時は身をうりてその竊める物を償ふべし
4 If the theft be found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall pay double.
若その竊める物眞に生てその手にあらばその牛驢馬羊たるにかかはらず倍してこれを償ふべし
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall let his beast loose, and it 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.
人もし田圃あるひは葡萄園の物を食はせその家畜をはなちて人の田圃の物を食ふにいたらしむる時は自己の田圃の嘉物と自己の葡萄園の嘉物をもてその償をなすべし
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the shocks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
火もし逸て荊棘にうつりその積あげたる穀物あるひは未だ刈ざる穀物あるひは田野を燬ばその火を焚たる者かならずこれを償ふべし
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, he shall pay double.
人もし金あるひは物を人に預るにその人の家より竊みとられたる時はその盗者あらはれなばこれを倍して償はしむべし
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall come near unto God, [to see] whether he have not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.
盗者もしあらはれずば家の主人を法官につれゆきて彼がその人の物に手をかけたるや否を見るべし
9 For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, [or] for any manner of lost thing, whereof one saith, This is it, the cause of both parties shall come before God; he whom God shall condemn shall pay double unto his neighbour.
何の過愆を論ず牛にもあれ驢馬にもあれ羊にもあれ衣服にもあれ又は何の失物にもあれ凡て人の見て是其なりと言ふ者ある時は法官その兩造の言を聽べし而して法官の罪ありとする者これを倍してその對手に償ふべし
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:
人もし驢馬か牛か羊か又はその他の家畜をその隣人にあづけんに死か傷けらるるか又は搶ひさらるることありて誰もこれを見し者なき時は
11 the oath of the LORD shall be between them both, whether he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods; and the owner thereof shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.
二人の間にその隣人の物に手をかけずとヱホバを指て誓ふことあるべし然る時はその持主これを承諾べし彼人は償をなすに及ばず
12 But if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
然ど若自己の許より竊まれたる時はその所有主にこれを償ふべし
13 If it be torn in pieces, let him bring it for witness; he shall not make good that which was torn.
若またその裂ころされし時は其を證據のために持きたるべしその裂ころされし者は償ふにおよばず
14 And if a man borrow aught of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.
人もしその隣人より借たる者あらんにその物傷けられ又は死ることありてその所有主それとともにをらざる時は必ずこれを償ふべし
15 If the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for its hire.
その所有主それと共にをらばこれを償ふにむよばず雇し者なる時もしかり其は雇れて來りしなればなり
16 And if a man entice a virgin that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.
人もし聘定あらざる處女を誘ひてこれと寝たらば必ずこれに聘禮して妻となすべし
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
その父もしこれをその人に與ふることを固く拒まば處女にする聘禮にてらして金をはらふべし
18 Thou shalt not suffer a sorceress to live.
魔術をつかふ女を生しおくべからず
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
凡て畜を犯す者をば必ず殺すべし
20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, shall be utterly destroyed.
ヱホバをおきて別の神に犠牲を献る者をば殺すべし
21 And a stranger shalt thou not wrong, neither shalt thou oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
汝他國の人を惱すべからず又これを虐ぐべからず汝らもエジプトの國にをる時は他國の人たりしなり
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
汝凡て寡婦あるひは孤子を惱すべからず
23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
汝もし彼等を惱まして彼等われに呼らば我かならずその號呼を聽べし
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.
わが怒烈しくなり我劍をもて汝らを殺さん汝らの妻は寡婦となり汝らの子女は孤子とならん
25 If thou lend money to any of my people with thee that is poor, thou shalt not be to him as a creditor; neither shall ye lay upon him usury.
汝もし汝とともにあるわが民の貧き者に金を貸す時は金貸のごとくなすべからず又これより利足をとるべからず
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour’s garment to pledge, thou shalt restore it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
汝もし人の衣服を質にとらば日のいる時までにこれを歸すべし
27 for that is his only covering, it is his garment 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.
其はその身を蔽ふ者は是のみにして是はその膚の衣なればなり彼何の中に寝んや彼われに龥はらば我きかん我は慈悲ある者なればなり
28 Thou shalt not revile God, nor curse a ruler of thy people.
汝神を罵るべからず民の主長を詛ふべからず
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer of the abundance of thy fruits, and of thy liquors. The firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
汝の豊滿なる物と汝の搾りたる物とを献ぐることを怠るなかれ汝の長子を我に與ふべし
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, [and] with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with its dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
汝また汝の牛と羊をも斯なすべし即ち七日母とともにをらしめて八日にこれを我に與ふべし
31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: therefore ye shall not eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
汝等は我の聖民となるべし汝らは野にて獣に裂れし者の肉を食ふべからず汝らこれを犬に投與ふべし
