Exodus 21
1 These ben the domes, whiche thou schalt sette forth to hem.
Sasa hizi ni amri utakazoweka kabla yao:
2 If thou biest an Ebrew seruaunt, he schal serue thee sixe yeer; in the seuenthe yeer he schal go out fre,
'kama mtanunua mtumishi wa kiebrania, atatumikia kwa miaka sita, na mwaka wa saba ataachiwa huru bila kilipwa chochote.
3 with out prijs; with what maner clooth he entride, with siche clooth go he out; if he entride hauynge a wijf, and the wijf schal go out to gidere.
Kama alikuja mwenyewe, ataenda huru kwa ridhaa yake;
4 But if the lord of the servaunt yaf a wijf to hym, and sche childide sones and douytris, the womman and hir children schulen be hir lordis; sotheli the seruaunt schal go out with his owne clooth.
kama bwana wake atampa mke na kumzalia mwana na binti, mke pamoja na watoto wake watabaki mali ya bwana wake, na ataenda zake huru.
5 That if the seruaunt seith, Y loue my lord, and wijf, and children, Y schal not go out fre;
Lakini kama mtumishi atasema waziwazi, “Nampenda bwana wangu, mke wangu, na watoto; sitaenda nje,”
6 the lord brynge hym to goddis, that is, iugis; and he schal be set to the dore, and postis; and the lord schal perse his eere with a nal, and he schal be seruaunt to hym til in to the world.
“kisha bwana wake atapaswa kumleta kwa Mungu. Bwana wake atapaswa kumleta katika mlango au katika muhimili wa mlango, na bwana wake atatoboa sikio lake na sindano. Kisha mtumishi wake atamtumikia kwa maisha yake yote.
7 If ony man sillith his douyter in to seruauntesse, sche schal not go out as handmaidis weren wont to go out;
Kama mwanaume ata muuza binti wake kama mtumishi wa kike, ata weza kwenda huru kama watumishi wa kiume wanavyo enda.
8 if sche displesith in the iyen of hir lord, to whom sche was bitakun, he schal delyuere hir; sotheli he schal not haue power to sille hir to an alien puple, if he forsakith hir.
Kama hamridhishi bwana wake, aliye mtenga kwa ajili yake, kisha lazima amnunue tena. Hana ruhusa ya kumuuza kwa watu wengine wa kigeni. Hana ruhusa hiyo, sababu amemtendea kwa hila.
9 Forsothe if he weddith hir to his sonne, he schal do to hir `bi the custom of douytris;
Ikiwa bwana wake atamposa awe mke wa mwanae, atamtendea kama desturi zipasavyo sawa na binti zake.
10 that if he takith another womman to hym, he schal puruey to the damysele weddingis, and clothis, and he schal not denye the prijs of chastite.
Ikiwa atajitwalia mke mwingine, asimpunguzie huyo chakula chake, nguo na haki zake za unyumba.
11 If he doith not these thre, sche schal go out freli without money.
Lakini asipofanyiwa mambo haya matatu, basi anaweza kwenda bure pasipo kutolewa mali.
12 He that smytith a man, and wole sle, die bi deeth;
Mtu awaye yote ampigaye mtu hata akafa, inampasa mtu huyo auawe pia.
13 forsothe if a man settide not aspies, but God `bitook hym in to hise hondis, Y schal ordeyne a place to thee, whidur he owith to fle.
Lakini kama hakumvizia, ila kwa bahati mbaya, basi nitamfanyia mahali pa kukimbilia.
14 If ony man sleeth his neiybore bi biforecastyng, and bi aspies, drawe thou hym awey fro myn auter, that he die.
Lakini mtu akimwendea mwenzake kwa kujikinai, kusudi apate kumwua kwa hila; huyo utamwondoa hata kama ni madhabahuni pangu, ili auawe.
15 He that smytith his fadir, ether modir, die by deeth.
Yeyote atakaye mpiga baba au mama yake lazima auawe.
16 He that cursith his fadir, ether modir, die bi deeth.
Yeyote atakaye mteka mtu na kumuuza, au mtu amekutwa kama mali yake, huyo mtekaji lazima auawe.
17 He that stelith a man, and sillith hym, if he is conuyt of the gilt, die bi deeth.
Yeyote atakaye mlaani baba au mama yake lazima auawe.
18 If men chiden, and the tother smyte his neiybore with a stoon, ether with the fist, and he is not deed, but liggith in the bed,
Kama wanaume watapigana na mmoja akimpiga mwengine kwa jiwe au ngumi, na huyo mtu asife, lakini alazwe kitandani;
19 if he risith, and goith forth on his staf, he that smoot schal be innocent; so netheles that he restore hise trauelis, and costis in lechis.
kisha akapona na anaweza kutembea kwa gongo lake, yeye aliye mpiga lazima alipe muda aliye mpotezea; na lazima alipe matibabu yake yote. Lakini huyo mtu hana hatia ya mauaji.
20 He that smytith his seruaunt, ether handmayde, with a yerde, and thei ben deed in hise hondis, schal be gilti of cryme.
Kama mwanaume akimpiga mtumishi wake wa kiume au wa kike kwa gongo, na kama mtumishi huyo akifa kwa madhara ya pigo, kisha huyo mtu lazima ahadhibiwe.
21 Sotheli if the seruaunt ouerlyueth o dai, ether tweyne, he schal not be suget to peyne, `that is of deeth, for the seruaunt is his catel.
Walakini, mtumishi huyo akiishi siku moja au mbili, bwana aruhusiwi kuadhibiwa, kwa kuwa atateseka kupoteza mtumishi huyo.
22 If men chiden, and a man smytith a womman with childe, and sotheli makith the child deed borun, but the womman ouerlyueth, he schal be suget to the harm, as myche as the `hosebonde of the womman axith, and the iugis demen.
Kama wanaume wakipigana pamoja na wakamuumiza wanamke mwenye mimba na kuiharibu, lakini hakuna majeraha mengine kwake, kisha huyo mwanaume mwenye hatia lazima alipe kama mme wa mwanamke anavyo taka kwake, na kulipa kama hakimu anavyo kusudia.
23 But if the deeth of hir sueth,
Lakini kama kuna majeraha makubwa, lazima utoe uhai kwa uhai, jicho kwa jicho,
24 he schal yelde lijf for lijf, iye for iye, tooth for tooth, hond for hond, foot for foot,
jino kwa jino, mkono kwa mkono, mguu kwa mguu,
25 brennyng for brennyng, wounde `with schedyng of blood for wounde `with schedyng of blood, `a wan wounde for a wan wounde.
kuchoma kwa kuchoma, jeraha kwa jeraha, au mkwaruzo kwa mkwaruzo.
26 If a man smytith the iye of his seruaunt, ethir of handmaide, and makith hem oon iyed, he schal delyuere hem fre for `the iye which he puttide out.
Kama mwanaume akipiga jicho la mtumishi wake kiume au mtumishi wake wa kike na kuliharibu, kisha lazima amuache mtumishi aende pasipo fidia ya jicho.
27 Also if he smytith out a tooth fro his seruaunt, ethir handmaide, in lijk maner he schal delyuere hem fre.
Kama akitoa jino la mtumishi wake wa kiume au mtumishi wake wa kike, lazima amuache mtumishi kwenda huru kama fidia ya jino.
28 If an oxe smytith with horn a man, ether a womman, and thei ben deed, the oxe schal be oppressid with stoonus, and hise fleischis schulen not be etun, and the lord of the oxe schal be innocent.
Kama ng'ombe akimpiga mwanaume au mwanamke akafa, ng'ombe lazima apigwe mawe, na nyama yake hairuhusiwi kuliwa; lakini mmiliki wa ng'ombe lazima awe huru kwa hatia.
29 That if the oxe was `a pultere with horn fro yisterdai and the thridde dai ago, and men warneden `the lord of hym, nether the lord closide hym, and he sleeth a man, ethir womman, bothe the oxe schal be oppressid with stoonus, and thei schulen sle `the lord of hym;
Lakini kama ng'ombe alikuwa na tabia ya kupiga hapo awali, na mmiliki wake alionywa lakini hakumzuia, na ng'ombe ameua mwanaume au mwanamke, huyo ng'ombe lazima apigwe mawe, na mmiliki wake lazima auawe pia.
30 that if prijs is put to the lord, he schal yyue for his lijf what euer he is axide.
Kama malipo ya uhai yanaitajika, lazima alipe chochote anachotakiwa kulipa.
31 And if he smytith with horn a son, and a douytir, he schal be suget to lijk sentence.
Kama ng'ombe amempiga mwana wa mwanaume au binti wake, mmiliki wa ng'ombe anapaswa kufanya kama masharti yanavyo mlazimu.
32 If the oxe asailith a seruaunt, and handmaide, the lord of the oxe schal yyue thretti siclis of siluer to `his lord; forsothe the oxe schal be oppressid with stoonus.
Kama ng'ombe akimpiga mtumishi wa kiume au wakike, mmiliki wa ngombe lazima alipe shekeli thelathini za fedha, na ng'ombe lazima apigwe mawe.
33 If ony man openeth a cisterne, and diggith, and hilith it not, and an oxe ether asse fallith in to it,
Kama mwanaume akifungua shimo, au kama mwanume akichimba shimo na asifunike, na ng'ombe au punda akaanguka ndani,
34 the lord of the cisterne schal yelde the prijs of the werk beestis; forsothe that that is deed schal be his.
mmiliki wa shimo lazima alipe madhara. Lazima atoe hela kwa mmiliki wa mnyama aliye kufa, na mnyama aliye kufa atakuwa wake.
35 If another mannus oxe woundith the oxe of another man, and he is deed, thei schulen sille the quyke oxe, and thei schulen departe the prijs; forsothe thei schulen departe bitwixe hem the karkeis of the deed oxe.
Kama ng'ombe wa mwanaume akimuumiza ng'ombe wa mwanume mwengine hadi kufa, kisha lazima wamuuze ng'ombe aliye hai na kugawana gharama, na pia lazima wagawane ng'ombe aliye kufa.
36 Forsothe if his lord wiste, that the oxe was a puttere fro yistirdai and the thridde dai ago, and kepte not him, he schal yelde oxe for oxe, and he schal take the hool carkeys.
Lakini kama ilijulikana kama ng'ombe alikuwa na tabia ya kupiga hapo awali, na mmiliki wake hakumfunga ndani, hakika lazima alipe ng'ombe kwa ng'ombe, na mnyama aliye kufa atakuwa wake.
