Exodus 21
1 “Here are some [other] instructions to give to [the Israeli people]:
Ezek pedig azok a rendeletek, a melyeket eleikbe kell terjesztened:
2 When/If you buy a Hebrew slave, he is to serve you for [only] six years. In the seventh year you must free him [from being your slave], and he is not required to pay you anything [for setting him free].
Ha héber szolgát vásárolsz, hat esztendeig szolgáljon, a hetedikben pedig szabaduljon fel ingyen.
3 If he was not married before he became your slave, and if he marries [someone while he is your slave], his wife is not to be set free [with him]. But if he was married before he became your slave, you must free both him and his wife.
Ha egyedűl jött, egyedűl menjen el; ha feleséges ember, menjen el vele a felesége is.
4 If a slave’s master gives him a wife, and she gives birth to sons or daughters [while her husband is a slave], only the man is to be freed. His wife and children will continue to be slaves of their master.
Ha az ő ura adott néki feleséget, és ez fiakat vagy leányokat szűlt néki: az asszony, gyermekeivel együtt legyen az ő uráé; ő pedig egyedűl menjen el.
5 But when it is time for the slave to be set free, if the slave says, ‘I love my master and my wife and my children, and I do not want to be set free,’
De ha a szolga azt mondaná: Szeretem az én uramat, az én feleségemet és fiaimat, nem akarok felszabadulni:
6 then his master must take him to [the place where they worship] God (OR, to [the owner’s] house). There he must make the slave stand against the door or the doorpost. Then the master will use an (awl/pointed metal rod) to make a hole in the slave’s ear. Then [he will fasten a tag to the slave’s ear to indicate that] (he will own that slave for the rest of his life/he will own the slave as long as the slave lives).
Akkor vigye őt az ő ura a bírák elé, és állítsa az ajtóhoz vagy az ajtófélhez, és az ő ura fúrja által az ő fülét árral; és szolgálja őt mindörökké.
7 If a man sells his daughter to become a slave, she should not be set free [after six years], as the male slaves are.
És ha valaki az ő leányát szolgálóul adja el, ne úgy menjen el, mint a szolgák mennek.
8 If the man who bought her wanted her to be his wife, but if [later] he is not pleased with her, he must sell her back to her father. He must not sell her to a foreigner, because that would be breaking the contract/agreement [he made with the girl’s father].
Ha nem tetszik az ő urának, hogy eljegyezze őt magának, akkor váltassa ki; arra, hogy idegen népnek eladja, nincs hatalma, mivel hűtelen volt hozzá.
9 If the man who buys her wants her to be a wife for his son, he must then treat her as though she were his own daughter.
Ha pedig a fiának jegyzi el őt: a leányok törvénye szerint cselekedjék vele.
10 If the master takes another slave girl to be another wife for himself, he must continue to give the first slave wife the same amount of food and clothing that he gave to her before, and he must continue to have sex [EUP] with her as before.
Ha mást vesz magának: ennek ételét, ruházatát és házasságbeli igazát alább ne szállítsa.
11 If he does not do all these three things for her, he must free her [from being a slave], and she is not required to pay anything [for being set free].
Ha ezt a hármat nem cselekszi vele: akkor menjen az el ingyen, fizetés nélkűl.
12 You must execute anyone who strikes another person with the result that the person who is struck dies.
A ki úgy megver valakit, hogy meghal, halállal lakoljon.
13 But if the one who struck the other did not intend to kill that person, the one who struck him can escape to a place that I will choose for you, [and he will be safe there].
De ha nem leselkedett, hanem Isten ejtette kezébe: úgy helyet rendelek néked, a hova meneküljön.
14 But if someone gets angry with another person and kills him, even if the murderer runs to the altar, [a place that God designated as a place to be safe], you must execute him.
Ha pedig valaki szándékosan tör felebarátja ellen, hogy azt orvúl megölje, oltáromtól is elvidd azt a halálra.
15 Anyone who strikes his father or mother must surely be executed.
A ki megveri az ő atyját vagy anyját, halállal lakoljon.
16 Anyone who kidnaps another person, either in order to sell that person or to keep him as a slave, must be executed.
A ki embert lop, és eladja azt, vagy kezében kapják, halállal lakoljon.
17 Anyone who reviles/curses his father or his mother must be executed.
A ki szidalmazza az ő atyját vagy anyját, halállal lakoljon.
18 Suppose two people fight, and one strikes the other with a stone or with his fist. And suppose the person he strikes does not die but is injured and has to stay in bed [for a while],
És ha férfiak összevesznek, és megüti valaki az ő felebarátját kővel vagy öklével, és nem hal meg, hanem ágyba esik:
19 and later he is able to walk outside using a cane. Then the person who struck him does not have to be punished. However, he must pay the injured person the money he could not earn [while he was recovering], and he must also pay the injured person’s medical expenses until that person is well.
Ha felkél, és mankóján kinn jár: ne legyen büntetve az, a ki megütötte; csupán fekvéséért fizessen és gyógyíttassa meg.
20 If someone strikes his male or female slave with a stick, if the slave dies (immediately/as a result) [IDM], the one who struck him must be punished.
Ha pedig valaki úgy üti meg szolgáját vagy szolgálóját bottal, hogy az meghal keze alatt, büntettessék meg.
21 But if the slave lives for a day or two after he is struck [and then dies], you must not punish the one who struck him. Not having that slave to be able to work for him any longer is enough punishment.
De ha egy vagy két nap életben marad, ne büntettessék meg, mert pénze ára az.
22 Suppose two people are fighting and they hurt a pregnant woman with the result that (she has a miscarriage/her baby is born prematurely and dies). If the woman is not harmed in any other way, the one who injured her must pay a fine. He must pay whatever the woman’s husband demands, after a judge approves of the fine.
Ha férfiak veszekednek és meglöknek valamely terhes asszonyt, úgy hogy idő előtt szűl, de egyéb veszedelem nem történik: bírságot fizessen a szerint, a mint az asszony férje azt reá kiveti, de bírák előtt fizessen.
23 But if the woman is injured in some additional way, the one who injured her must be caused to suffer in exactly the same way [that he caused her to suffer]. If she dies, he must be executed.
De ha veszedelem történik: akkor életért életet adj.
24 If her eye is injured or destroyed, or if he knocks out one of her teeth, or her hand or foot is injured, or if she is burned or bruised, the one who injured her must be injured in the same way.
Szemet szemért, fogat fogért, kezet kézért, lábat lábért;
Égetést égetésért, sebet sebért, kéket kékért.
26 If the owner of a slave strikes the eye of his male or female slave and ruins it, he must free that slave because of [what he did to] the slave’s eye.
Ha valaki az ő szolgájának szemét, vagy szolgálójának szemét úgy üti meg, hogy elpusztul, bocsássa azt szabadon az ő szeméért.
27 If someone knocks out one of his slave’s teeth, he must free the slave because of [what he did to] the slave’s tooth.
Ha pedig szolgájának fogát, vagy szolgálójának fogát üti ki, bocsássa azt szabadon az ő fogáért.
28 If a bull gores a man or woman with the result that the person dies, you [must kill the bull by] throwing stones at it, but you must not punish the owner of the bull.
Ha férfit vagy asszonyt öklel meg egy ökör, úgy hogy meghal: kővel köveztessék meg az ökör, és húsát meg ne egyék; de az ökörnek ura ártatlan.
29 But suppose the bull had attacked people several times before, and its owner had been warned, but he did not keep the bull inside a fence. Then you [must kill the bull by] throwing stones at it, but you must also execute its owner.
De ha az ökör azelőtt is öklelős volt, és annak urát megintették, és még sem őrizte azt, és férfit vagy asszonyt ölt meg: az ökör köveztessék meg, és az ura is halállal lakoljon.
30 However, if the owner of the bull is allowed to pay a fine (to save his own life/in order not to be executed), he must pay the full amount that the judges say that he must pay.
Ha pénzváltságot vetnek reá, fizessen lelke váltságáért annyit, a mennyit reá kivetnek.
31 If someone’s bull attacks and gores another person’s son or daughter, you must treat the bull’s owner according to that same rule.
Akár fiút ökleljen meg, akár leányt ökleljen meg: e szerint a rendelet szerint kell cselekedni.
32 If a bull attacks and gores a male or female slave, its owner must pay to the slave’s owner 30 pieces of silver. Then you must [kill the bull by] throwing stones at it.
Ha szolgát öklel meg az ökör vagy szolgálót: adassék azok urának harmincz ezüst siklus, az ökör pedig köveztessék meg.
33 Suppose someone has a pit/cistern and does not keep it covered, and someone’s bull or donkey falls into it [and dies].
Ha pedig valaki vermet nyit meg, vagy ha valaki vermet ás, és nem fedi azt be, és ökör vagy szamár esik bele:
34 Then the owner of the pit/cistern must pay for the animal that died. He must give the money to the animal’s owner, but then he can take away the animal that died and [do whatever he wants to with it].
A verem ura fizessen; pénzül térítse meg azok urának, a hulla pedig legyen az övé.
35 If someone’s bull hurts another person’s bull with the result that it dies, the owners of both bulls must sell the bull that is living, and they must divide [between them] the money [that they receive] for it. They must also divide [between them the meat of] the animal that died.
És ha valakinek ökre megdöfi az ő felebarátja ökrét, úgy hogy az elpusztul: adják el az eleven ökröt, és az árát osszák meg, és a hullát is osszák el.
36 However, if people know that the bull often attacked other animals previously, and its owner did not keep it inside a fence, then the owner of that bull must give the owner of the bull that died one of his own bulls, but he can take away the animal that died [and do with it whatever he wants to do].”
Vagy ha tudták, hogy az ökör már azelőtt öklelős volt, és nem őrizte azt annak ura: fizessen ökröt az ökörért, a hulla pedig az övé legyen.
