< Exodus 21 >

1 Now these [are] the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
Ary izao no lalàna izay hataonao eo anatrehany:
2 If thou shalt buy a Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall depart free for nothing.
Raha mividy andevo Hebreo ianao, dia enin-taona no hanompoany, ary amin’ ny taona fahafito dia hiala ho afaka fotsiny izy.
3 If he came in by himself, he shall depart by himself: if he was married, then his wife shall depart with him.
Raha izy irery ihany no miditra, dia izy irery hany no hiala; fa raha manam-bady izy, dia hiala hiaraka aminy koa ny vadiny.
4 If his master hath given him a wife, and she hath borne him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall depart by himself.
Raha manome vady azy ny tompony, ka miteraka zazalahy na zazavavy aminy izy, dia ho an’ ny tompony ihany ny vadiny sy ny zanany, fa izy irery ihany no hiala.
5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not depart free:
Fa raha milaza marimarina ilay andevo ka manao hoe: Tsy foiko ny tompoko sy ny vadiko ary ny zanako, ka tsy te-ho afaka aho,
6 Then his master shall bring him to the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or to the door-post: and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.
dia ho entin’ ny tompony ho eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra izy, ary dia ho entiny ho eo amin’ ny varavarana, na ho eo amin’ ny tolam-baravarana, ka hotevehin’ ny tompony amin’ ny haolo ny sofiny; dia hanompo azy mandrakizay izy.
7 And if a man shall sell his daughter to be a maid-servant, she shall not depart as the men-servants do.
Ary raha misy mivaro-janakavavy ho vaditsindranon’ olona, dia tsy mba ho tahaka ny fialan’ ny andevolahy ho afaka no fialany.
8 If she shall not please her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her to a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
Fa raha tsy ankasitrahan’ ny tompony, izay nikasa hanambady azy, ravehivavy, dia havelany havotana ihany izy; tsy hahazo mivarotra azy ho any amin’ ny firenena hafa izy, satria efa namitaka azy.
9 And if he hath betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
Ary raha mamofo azy ho vadin’ ny zananilahy izy, dia araka ny fitondra zanakavavy no hataony aminy.
10 If he shall take him another [wife]; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage shall he not diminish.
Ary raha maka vehivavy hafa ho vadiny izy, dia tsy hahenany ny fihinany sy ny fitafiany ary ny fombam-panambadiany.
11 And if he shall not perform these three to her, then shall she depart free without money.
Ary raha tsy hataony aminy izany zavatra telo loha izany, dia hiala ho afaka fotsiny ravehivavy, fa tsy handoa vola.
12 He that smiteth a man, so that he dieth, shall be surely put to death.
Izay mamely olona ka mahafaty azy dia hatao maty tokoa;
13 And if a man shall not lie in wait, but God shall deliver [him] into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
fa izay tsy manotrika, fa Andriamanitra no manolotra azy eo an-tànany, dia hanendry ho anareo fitoerana izay handosirany Aho.
14 But if a man shall come presumptuously upon his neighbor, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from my altar, that he may die.
Ary raha misy olona avy sahisahy amin’ ny namany hamono azy amin’ ny fahafetsena, dia halainao izy, na dia eo amin’ ny alitarako aza, mba hovonoina ho faty.
15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
Ary izay mamely ny rainy na ny reniny dia hatao maty tokoa.
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he shall be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
Ary izay mangalatra olona, na efa namidiny, na mbola hita eo an-tànany ihany ilay nangalariny, dia hatao maty tokoa.
17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
Ary izay manozona ny rainy na ny reniny dia hatao maty tokoa.
18 And if men contend together, and one shall smite another with a stone, or with [his] fist, and he shall not die, but keep [his] bed:
Ary raha misy olona mifanditra, ka ny anankiray mamely ny namany amin’ ny vato, na amin’ ny totohondry, koa tsy maty izy, fa marary ambany tsihy,
19 If he shall rise again, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that smote [him] be quit: only he shall pay [for] the loss of his time, and shall cause [him] to be thoroughly healed.
raha afa-mitsangana indray ka mandehandeha mitehina eny ala-trano izy, dia ho afa-tsiny ilay namely azy; kanefa handoa ny hevitr’ andro tsy nanaovany zavatra izy sady hitsabo azy mandra-pahasitrany.
20 And if a man shall smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he shall die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
Ary raha misy olona mikapoka ny andevolahiny na ny andevovaviny amin’ ny tsorakazo ka mahafaty azy eo am-pikapohana, dia hovaliana tokoa izy.
21 Notwithstanding, if he shall continue a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he [is] his money.
Kanefa raha mbola velona maharitra indray andro na indroa andro izy, dia tsy hovaliana ilay tompony; fa hareny ihany izy.
22 If men shall contend, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit shall depart [from her], and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges [determine].
Ary raha misy olona mifanditra ka mandratra vehivavy manan’ anaka, ka teraka tsy tonga volana ny zanany, kanefa tsy misy maninona, dia hosazina tokoa ilay olona araka izay hanaovan’ ny vadin-dravehivavy azy; ary handoa araka izay handidian’ ny mpitsara izy.
23 And if [any] mischief shall follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
Fa raha misy maninona kosa, dia hanome aina solon’ ny aina ianao,
24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
maso solon’ ny maso, nify solon’ ny nify, tanana solon’ ny tanana, tongotra solon’ ny tongotra,
25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
may solon’ ny may, ratra solon’ ny ratra, mivatra solon’ ny mivatra.
26 And if a man shall smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it shall perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
Ary raha misy olona mamely ny mason’ ny andevolahiny na ny mason’ ny andevovaviny ka mahasimba azy, dia halefany ho afaka izy noho ny masony.
27 And if he shall smite out his man-servant's tooth, or his maid-servant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.
Ary raha ny nifin’ ny andevolahy na ny andevovavy no afany, dia halefany ho afaka koa izy noho ny nifiny.
28 If an ox shall gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox [shall be] quit.
Ary raha misy omby manoto lehilahy na vehivavy ka mahafaty azy, dia hotoraham-bato tokoa ny omby, ary tsy hohanina ny henany; ary ny tompon’ ilay omby dia ho afa-tsiny.
29 But if the ox was accustomed to push with his horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not restrained him, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
Fa raha omby efa zatra nanoto hatramin’ ny teo aloha iny, sady efa nambara tamin’ ny tompony izany, nefa izy no tsy niaro azy, koa nahafaty lehilahy na vehivavy ny omby, dia hotoraham-bato ny omby, ary ny tompony koa hovonoina.
30 If there shall be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatever is laid upon him.
Raha sazina izy, dia handoa vidin’ aina araka izay sazy atao aminy.
31 Whether he hath gored a son, or hath gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done to him.
Raha manoto zazalahy na zazavavy ny omby, dia araka izany lalàna izany koa no hanaovana azy.
32 If the ox shall push a man-servant, or maid-servant; he shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
Raha manoto andevolahy na andevovavy izy, dia homena sekely volafotsy telo-polo ny tompon’ andevo, ary ny omby hotoraham-bato.
33 And if a man shall open a pit, or if a man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass shall fall into it;
Ary raha misy olona manokatra lavaka, na raha misy olona mihady lavaka, ka tsy rakofany, ary misy omby na boriky latsaka ao,
34 The owner of the pit shall make compensation, [and] give money to the owner of them; and the dead [beast] shall be his.
dia hanonitra azy ny tompon-davaka, ka vola no haloany ho an’ ny tompony; ary ny maty dia ho azy.
35 And if one man's ox shall hurt another's that he shall die, then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it, and the dead [ox] also they shall divide.
Ary raha misy ombin’ olona mandratra ny ombin’ ny namany ka mahafaty azy, dia hamidiny ny omby velona, ka hozarainy ny vola vidiny; ary ny maty koa hozarainy.
36 Or if it shall be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not restrained him; he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead shall be his own.
Kanefa raha fantatra fa omby zatra nanoto hatramin’ ny teo aloha iny, koa tsy niaro azy ny tompony, dia hanonitra omby ho solon’ ny omby tokoa izy; ary ny maty dia ho azy.
