If thou biest an Ebrew seruaunt, he schal serue thee sixe yeer; in the seuenthe yeer he schal go out fre,
3 Angĩgooka arĩ wiki, akaarekererio athiĩ arĩ o wiki; no angĩgooka arĩ na mũtumia, makaarekererio mathiĩ marĩ hamwe.

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.
5 “No ndungata ĩyo ĩngĩkaaria, ĩmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩnyendete mwathi wakwa, na mũtumia wakwa na ciana na ndikwenda kũrekererio thiĩ,’
That if the seruaunt seith, Y loue my lord, and wijf, and children, Y schal not go out fre;
6 hĩndĩ ĩyo mwathi wa ndungata ĩyo nĩakamĩtwara mbere ya atuithania ciira. Akaamĩtwara mũrango-inĩ, kana hingĩro-inĩ ya mũrango, na amĩtũre gũtũ na mũkuha. Nayo ndungata ĩyo ĩgaatuĩka ya mwathi ũcio matukũ ma muoyo wayo wothe.

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.
11 Angĩaga kũmũhingĩria maũndũ maya matatũ-rĩ, akĩrekererio athiĩ, gũtarĩ na mbeeca ikũrĩhwo.
If he doith not these thre, sche schal go out freli without money.
12 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩgũtha mũndũ amũũrage, ti-itherũ o nake no akooragwo.

14 No mũndũ angĩtũmĩra mawara na oorage mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ akĩendaga-rĩ, mweheriei kĩgongona-inĩ gĩakwa, na mũmũũrage.
If ony man sleeth his neiybore bi biforecastyng, and bi aspies, drawe thou hym awey fro myn auter, that he die.
15 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩtharĩkĩra ithe kana nyina no nginya ooragwo.

17 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩruma ithe kana nyina no nginya ooragwo.
He that stelith a man, and sillith hym, if he is conuyt of the gilt, die bi deeth.
18 “Andũ mangĩũgitana na ũmwe aringe ũrĩa ũngĩ na ihiga kana na ngundi na aage gũkua, no akome ũrĩrĩ kwa ihinda-rĩ,
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,

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.
20 “Mũndũ angĩhũũra ngombo yake ya mũndũ mũrũme kana ya mũndũ-wa-nja na rũthanju, nayo ngombo ĩyo ĩkue nĩ ihũũra rĩu-rĩ, no nginya aherithio,
He that smytith his seruaunt, ether handmayde, with a yerde, and thei ben deed in hise hondis, schal be gilti of cryme.

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.
22 “Andũ mangĩkorwo makĩrũa, maringe mũtumia ũrĩ nda, ahune no ndagĩe na thĩĩna ũngĩ-rĩ, ũrĩa ũmũringĩte nĩakarĩha kĩrĩa gĩothe mũthuuri wa mũtumia ũcio ageetia, igooti rĩetĩkĩria.
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.

26 “Mũndũ angĩgũtha ndungata ya mũndũ mũrũme kana ya mũndũ-wa-nja riitho narĩo rĩthũke-rĩ, no nginya akaarekereria ndungata ĩyo ĩĩthiĩre, ũndũ ũcio ũtuĩke nĩguo irĩhi rĩa riitho.
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.
27 Na angĩkũũra igego rĩa ndungata ya mũndũ mũrũme kana ya mũndũ-wa-nja, no nginya arekererie ndungata ĩyo ĩĩthiĩre, ũndũ ũcio ũtuĩke nĩguo irĩhi rĩa igego.
Also if he smytith out a tooth fro his seruaunt, ethir handmaide, in lijk maner he schal delyuere hem fre.

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;

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.
33 “Mũndũ angĩkunũra irima, kana enje rĩmwe na aage kũrĩkunĩka, nayo ndegwa kana ndigiri ĩgwe thĩinĩ warĩo,

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.
