Zmavarene 21

1 Mosesega ama'na kasegea Israeli vahe'mokizmi zamigahane.

“Here are some [other] instructions to give to [the Israeli people]:

2 Kagrama Hibru vahepinti'ma kazokzo eri'za vahe'ma mizama asenunka, 6si'a kafufinke kagri kazokazo eri'za vahera manite'na, 7ni kafurera atregeno mizana osu amne fru huno vino.

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].

3 Ana kazokzo eri'za ne'mo'ma a'ma e'orinenigenka mizama hu'nenunka, anama hunte'nana kafurera atregeno agrake vino. Hianagi ko'ma a'ma ante'nenia ne'ma mizama se'nesunka, ana a'ene atregeno vino.

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.

4 Hagi kazokzo eri'za ne'ma mizama se'ne'nia venafo'ma a'ma miza humi'nenigeno mofavrema ante'nenuno'a, ana a'ane ne'mofa'anena ana venafo azampi netreno, agrake vugahie.

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.

5 Hianagi ana kazokzo eri'za ne'mo'ma huama'ma huno, nagri'ma mizaseno nafa'a hunante'nemofonku'ene a'ni'agu'ene mofavreni'agura tusiza huno navenesiankina nagra zamatre'na fru hu'na amne ovugahue huno'ma hanigeno'a,

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,’

6 mizama hunte'nea kva'amo'ma avreno Anumzamofonte vuteno, ete avreno kafa zafarero ete kafantero vuno hakare vahe avufi vahe'ma zamagesa rerapone zota erino agesa reraponenkeno agri kazokzo eri'za vahe mani'neno ufrigahie.

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).

7 Mago ne'mo'ma, mofa'ama kazokazo eri'za mofa manisie huno'ma zagore'ma atresige'noma mizamasesiana, ve kazozko eri'za vahe'ma nehiaza huno, 7ni kafurera atresigenora frua huno amnea ovugahie.

If a man sells his daughter to become a slave, she should not be set free [after six years], as the male slaves are.

8 Ana mofa'ma a'nie huno miza hu'ne'nia venafo'ma muse osania zama hanigeno'a, ana venafo'a ana mofara atrenkeno ete nefa'a miza hino. Hagi ana mofa'ma miza hu'nenia venafo'ma mago'enena ru kaziga vahetera mizantera ozmino, na'ankure, kva'amo'a agra'a ana mofa'mofo so'e manizama'a eri haviza hu'ne.

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].

9 Hagi ana mofa'ma miza hu'nea ne'mo'ma, ne'mofonte'ma a'e huno huntenesuno'a, agra mofa'ama kegava nehiaza huno kegava hunteno.

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.

10 Hagi henka'ama, ana ne'mo'ma ru a'ma erisnuno'a, pusa a'enena ko'ma nehiaza huno nemaseno, knare huno kukena'ane kave'are'enena kegava huntegahie.

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.

11 Hagi ana 3'a zama huntega'zama, ana a'mofoma huontesigeno'a, ana a'mo'a zagoa miza osu amne atreno vugahie.

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].

12 Iza'o vahe'ma ahe frisia nera, agri'enena ahe frigahaze.

You must execute anyone who strikes another person with the result that the person who is struck dies.

13 Hianagi mago ne'mo'ma mago'azama hanifi hantaga huno mago vahe'ma ahe frisiana, Anumzamo atresigeno ana zana fore hugahiankino, agu'vazi kuma'ma retro'ma huntenerega ana ne'mo'a freno vugahie.

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].

14 Ana hu'neanagi mago ne'mo'ma vahe'ma ahe friku'ma, oku'ama antahintahi retro huteno, ana ne'ma ahe frina, ana nera Kresramana vu itareti'enena amne avazu huta ahe frigahaze.

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.

15 Iza'o nefano nererano ahesia nera, ahenkeno frino.

Anyone who strikes his father or mother must surely be executed.

16 Iza'o mago vahe'ma musufa avreno eme frakino antege, zagore atrege'ma hania nera ahe friho.

Anyone who kidnaps another person, either in order to sell that person or to keep him as a slave, must be executed.

17 Iza'o nererano nefanoma huhaviza huntesia nera ahenkeno frino.

Anyone who reviles/curses his father or his mother must be executed.

18 Tare netremoke'ma fra nevazisapinti'ma, mago'mo'ma azanknonuro have knonuro ahenkeno ofrigahianagi, ana zanku'ma krima erino'ma mani'nenigeno,

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],

19 kri'amo'ma osi'a knare hinkeno'ma azompare megi'a vanoma hanigeno'a, ahe'nea nera kanazana omigahie. Hianagi krima maseneno kna'ama atre'nea zantera miza hunenteno kegava hunentenkeno kriamo'a knare ome huntegahie.

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.

20 Mago ne'mo'ma kazokzo eri'za ne'amofono, kazokzo eri'za a'amofoma kanonu'ma ahenkeno frisiana, ana kazokzo eriza vahe'mofo nafa'amofo kanazana amiho.

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.

21 Hianagi ana kazokazo eri'za vahe'mo'ma mago kano, tare kanama manite'no'ma knamare'niana, anama ahe'nea kva nera kna omigahaze. Na'ankure ana kazokzo eri'za nera mizamase'nea ne'mofo su'za mani'ne.

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.

22 Tare netremoke'ma ha' nehu'ne mago'ma amu'ene hu'nesnia a'ma ahesigeno nena osu'nesia mofavrema kasenenteno, ana a'mo'ma hazenke'ma e'orisigeno'a, ana a'mofo neve'ma zago agima ahentesiama'a miza neseno nanekema refkohu kva vahe'mo'ma e'i'a amio hanazama'a amino.

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.

23 Hianagi ana a'mo'ma ra hazenke'ma erinkeno'a, anahukna hazenke agri'enena amigahaze. Ahe fri'nirera, agri'enena ahe frigahaze.

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.

24 Hagi avurgama repro haniana, agri'enena avurga repro hiho. Hagi ave'ma ru tafrina, agri'enena ave ru tafriho, hagi agia azama ruhantgina, agri'enena anazanke huta agiaza ruhantgiho.

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.

25 Tevefima kre kasage'na, agri'enena tevefi kre kasageho, avufga rutraga hu'nena, ana zanke huta agri'enena avufga rutraga hiho. Hagi aheno avufgama ru korampamagi'nena, ana nera aheta avufga ru korampagiho.

26 Kazokzo eri'za nero, kazokzo eri'za aro mizama sentenesia kva'amo avurgama repro hutrenkeno'a, agra ana nona'a atresigeno ana kazokzo eri'za vahe'mo'a zagoa miza osu fru huno amne vugahie.

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.

27 Hagi kazokzo eri'za ne'amofono, a'amofoma mizama se'nesia venafo'ma aheno mago ave'ma ru tafrisiana, ana kazokzo eri'za vahe'a ana nona'a atrenkeno mizana oseno fru huno amne vino.

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.

28 Mago ve bulimakao afu'mo'ma mago nero, aro pazive anuti'ma ahe frinketa, ana ve bulimakao afura have knonteti ahefrinkeno frina avufaga'a oneho. Hianagi ana ve bulimakamofo venafona keaga hunteta kna omiho.

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.

29 Hianagi ana ve bulimakamo'ma vahe'ma nehe'nigenoma kegina huno antenogu eme asamisage'noma, ana kema eritreno bulimaka'ama keginafima avre onte'nenigeno mago veo aro ahefrisigeno'a, ana ve bulimakao'a havenkanonu ahenefritma, bulimakao nefanena ahefriho.

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.

30 Ana hugahianagi bulimakaomo'ma ahefrinesia vahe'mofo nona hinogu'ma naga'amozama miza agima ahentesazama'a mizaseno.

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.

31 Mago mofaro, ne'mofavreo, bulimakao afu'mo'ma pazive'anuma ahe frinkeno'a anazanke huno mizaseno.

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.

32 Bulimakao afu'mo'ma mago kazokazo eri'za aro veoma pazive'anuti'ma ahe frinkeno'a, ana eri'za vahe'mofo kva nera bulimakaomofo venafo'a 30'a silva zago nemino, ana bulimakao afura have knonu ahe frino.

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.

33 Mago' vahe'mo'ma keri kafinenteno'o kafinte'nesia kerima eri hagaro huteno refi otenenige'noma mago' ne'mofo bulimakao afumo'o donki afumo'ma ana kerifima uramina,

Suppose someone has a pit/cistern and does not keep it covered, and someone’s bull or donkey falls into it [and dies].

34 kerima asente'nesnimo'a ana bulimakaono, tonki afutera nona huno miza hinkeno, anama frisia zagamo'a agriza segahie.

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].

35 Mago ne'mofo bulimakao afumo'ma, mago ne'mofo bulimakao afu'ma ahefrina, ana bulimakao afutremofo nafa'amokea amnema manisia bulimakao afura zagore atreke ana zagoa amu'nompinti refako nehuke, anama fri'nea bulimakao afura amu'nompinti arutaneke refako hi'o.

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.

36 Hianagi ko'ma pazive'anuti'ma ha'ma nehania bulimakao afumofo venafo'ma antahi'neno keginafima onte'nenigeno, rumofo bulimakao afu'ma ahefrisiana, anama frisia bulimakao afu'mofo venafo'na ete bulimakao afuteti nona huno miza senenteno fri'nesia bulimakao afura erigahie.

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].”
