Exodus 22
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
CUANDO alguno hurtare buey ú oveja, y le degollare ó vendiere, por aquel buey pagará cinco bueyes, y por aquella oveja cuatro ovejas.
2 If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, [there shall] no blood [be shed] for him.
Si el ladrón fuere hallado forzando una casa, y fuere herido y muriere, el que le hirió no será culpado de su muerte.
3 If the sun shall have risen upon him, [there shall be] blood [shed] for him: [for] he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
Si el sol hubiere sobre él salido, el [matador] será reo de homicidio: [el ladrón] habrá de restituir cumplidamente; si no tuviere, será vendido por su hurto.
4 If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
Si fuere hallado con el hurto en la mano, sea buey ó asno ú oveja vivos, pagará el duplo.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall 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.
Si alguno hiciere pacer campo ó viña, y metiere su bestia, y comiere la tierra de otro, de lo mejor de su tierra y de lo mejor de su viña pagará.
6 If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
Cuando rompiere un fuego, y hallare espinas, y fuere quemado montón, ó haza, ó campo, el que encendió el fuego pagará lo quemado.
7 If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.
Cuando alguno diere á su prójimo plata ó alhajas á guardar, y fuere hurtado de la casa de aquel hombre, si el ladrón se hallare, pagará el doble.
8 If the thief shall not be found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, [to see] whether he hath put his hand to his neighbor's goods.
Si el ladrón no se hallare, entonces el dueño de la casa será presentado á los jueces, [para ver] si ha metido su mano en la hacienda de su prójimo.
9 For all manner of trespass, [whether it be] for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, [or] for any manner of lost thing which [another] challengeth to be his: the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; [and] he whom the judges shall condemn, shall pay double to his neighbor.
Sobre todo negocio de fraude, sobre buey, sobre asno, sobre oveja, sobre vestido, sobre toda cosa perdida, cuando uno dijere: Esto es mío, la causa de ambos vendrá delante de los jueces; y el que los jueces condenaren, pagará el doble á su prójimo.
10 If a man shall deliver to his neighbor an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast to keep; and it shall die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing [it]:
Si alguno hubiere dado á su prójimo asno, ó buey, ú oveja, ó cualquier otro animal á guardar, y se muriere, ó se perniquebrare, ó fuere llevado sin verlo nadie;
11 [Then] shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept of it, and he shall not make restitution.
Juramento de Jehová tendrá lugar entre ambos de que no echó su mano á la hacienda de su prójimo: y su dueño lo aceptará, y el otro no pagará.
12 And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
Mas si le hubiere sido hurtado, resarcirá á su dueño.
13 If it shall be torn in pieces; [then] let him bring it [for] witness, [and] he shall not make good that which was torn.
Y si le hubiere sido arrebatado por fiera, traerle ha testimonio, y no pagará lo arrebatado.
14 And if a man shall borrow [aught] of his neighbor, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it [being] not with it, he shall surely make [it] good.
Pero si alguno hubiere tomado prestada [bestia] de su prójimo, y fuere estropeada ó muerta, ausente su dueño, deberá pagar[la].
15 [But] if the owner of it shall [be] with it, he shall not make [it] good: if it [be] a hired [thing], it came for his hire.
Si el dueño estaba presente, no la pagará. Si era alquilada, él vendrá por su alquiler.
16 And if a man shall entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
Y si alguno engañare á alguna doncella que no fuere desposada, y durmiere con ella, deberá dotarla y tomarla por mujer.
17 If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dower of virgins.
Si su padre no quisiere dársela, él le pesará plata conforme al dote de las vírgenes.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
A la hechicera no dejarás que viva.
19 Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
Cualquiera que tuviere ayuntamiento con bestia, morirá.
20 He that sacrificeth to [any] god, save to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
El que sacrificare á dioses, excepto á sólo Jehová, será muerto.
21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Y al extranjero no engañarás, ni angustiarás, porque extranjeros fuisteis vosotros en la tierra de Egipto.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
A ninguna viuda ni huérfano afligiréis.
23 If thou shalt afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry:
Que si tú llegas á afligirle, y él á mí clamare, ciertamente oiré yo su clamor;
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.
Y mi furor se encenderá, y os mataré á cuchillo, y vuestras mujeres serán viudas, y huérfanos vuestros hijos.
25 If thou shalt lend money to [any of] my people [that is] poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
Si dieres á mi pueblo dinero emprestado, al pobre que está contigo, no te portarás con él como logrero, ni le impondrás usura.
26 If thou shalt at all take thy neighbor's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.
Si tomares en prenda el vestido de tu prójimo, á puestas del sol se lo volverás:
27 For that [is] his only covering, it [is] his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I [am] gracious.
Porque sólo aquello es su cubierta, es aquél el vestido para cubrir sus carnes, en el que ha de dormir: y será que cuando él á mí clamare, yo entonces le oiré, porque soy misericordioso.
28 Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
No denostarás á los jueces, ni maldecirás al príncipe de tu pueblo.
29 Thou shalt not delay [to offer] the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the first-born of thy sons shalt thou give to me.
No dilatarás la primicia de tu cosecha, ni de tu licor: me darás el primogénito de tus hijos.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thy oxen, [and] with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
Así harás con el de tu buey y de tu oveja: siete días estará con su madre, y al octavo día me lo darás.
31 And ye shall be holy men to me: neither shall ye eat [any] flesh [that is] torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
Y habéis de serme varones santos: y no comeréis carne arrebatada de las fieras en el campo; á los perros la echaréis.
