2 Mojzes 21
1 Torej to so sodbe, ki jih boš postavil prednje.
Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
2 Če kupiš hebrejskega služabnika, naj ti služi šest let. V sedmem letu pa naj odide prost, brez plačila.
If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3 Če je sam prišel, naj sam odide. Če je bil poročen, potem naj njegova žena odide z njim.
If he come in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he be married, then his wife shall go out with him.
4 Če mu je njegov gospodar dal ženo in mu je rodila sinove ali hčere, naj bodo žena in njeni otroci [od] njegovega gospodarja, on pa naj odide sam.
If his master give him a wife, and she bear him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself.
5 Če mu bo služabnik jasno rekel: ›Ljubim svojega gospodarja, svojo ženo in svoje otroke; ne bom odšel svoboden, ‹
But if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
6 potem naj ga njegov gospodar privede k sodnikom. Prav tako naj ga privede k vratom ali k podboju in njegov gospodar naj njegovo uho prebode s šilom, on pa naj mu za vedno služi.
then his master shall bring him unto God, and shall bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.
7 Če človek proda svojo hčer, da postane dekla, naj ona ne odide, kakor storijo služabniki.
And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
8 Če ne ugaja svojemu gospodarju, ki si jo je zaročil, tedaj naj bo odkupljena. Ne bo imel oblasti, da jo proda v tuj narod, glede na to, da je z njo ravnal varljivo.
If she please not her master, who hath espoused her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange people he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
9 Če jo je zaročil svojemu sinu, naj z njo postopa po načinu hčera.
And if he espouse her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
10 Če si vzame drugo ženo, naj njene hrane, njenega oblačila in njene zakonske dolžnosti ne zmanjša.
If he take him another [wife]; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
11 Če ji ne stori teh treh stvari, potem naj ta odide ven prosta, brez denarja.
And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out for nothing, without money.
12 Kdor udarja človeka, tako da umre, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall surely be put to death.
13 Če človek ne preži nanj, temveč ga Bog izroči v njegovo roko, potem bom določil kraj, kamor naj zbeži.
And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver [him] into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he shall flee.
14 Toda če pride človek prepotentno nad svojega bližnjega, da ga z zvijačo ubije, ga odvedi od mojega oltarja, da lahko umre.
And if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
15 Kdor udarja svojega očeta ali svojo mater, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
16 Kdor ugrabi človeka in ga prodaja ali če je le-ta najden v njegovi roki, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
17 Kdor preklinja svojega očeta ali svojo mater, naj bo zagotovo usmrčen.
And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
18 Če se moža skupaj prepirata in je eden udaril drugega s kamnom ali s svojo pestjo, pa ta ne umre, temveč se drži svoje postelje;
And if men contend, and one smiteth the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keep his bed:
19 če ta ponovno vstane in hodi okoli na svoji palici, potem naj bo tisti, ki ga je udaril, oproščen. Samo plačal mu bo za izgubo njegovega časa in poskrbel bo, da bo temeljito ozdravljen.
if he 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.
20 Če človek udari svojega služabnika ali svojo služabnico s palico in le-ta pod njegovo roko umre, naj bo zagotovo kaznovan.
And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall surely be punished.
21 Vendar če preživi dan ali dva, naj ne bo kaznovan, kajti on je njegov denar.
Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
22 Če se moža prepirata in poškodujeta nosečnico, tako da njen sad odide od nje in ne sledi nobena škoda, naj bo ta zagotovo kaznovan glede na to, kakor mu naloži ženin soprog. Plača naj, kakor mu bodo določili sodniki.
And if men strive together, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely fined, according as the woman’s husband shall lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
23 Če sledi katerakoli nesreča, potem boš dal življenje za življenje,
But if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
24 oko za oko, zob za zob, roko za roko, stopalo za stopalo,
eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25 opeklino za opeklino, rano za rano, udarec z bičem za udarec z bičem.
burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26 Če človek udari oko svojega služabnika ali oko svoje služabnice, da le-ta propade, naj ga pusti oditi svobodnega zaradi njegovega očesa.
And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, and destroy it; he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake.
27 Če svojemu slugi izbije zob ali zob svoji dekli, naj ga pusti oditi prostega zaradi njegovega zoba.
And if he smite out his manservant’s tooth, or his maidservant’s tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth’s sake.
28 Če vol zabode moškega ali žensko, da umreta, potem naj bo vol zagotovo kamnan in njegovo meso naj se ne jé, toda lastnik vola naj bo oproščen.
And if an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die, the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
29 Toda če je imel vol navado, da je s svojim rogom bodel v preteklem času in je bilo to pričevano njegovemu lastniku, pa ga ta ni držal zaprtega, temveč da je usmrtil moškega ali žensko, naj bo vol kamnan in tudi njegov lastnik naj bo usmrčen.
But if the ox were wont to gore in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
30 Če mu bo naložena vsota denarja, potem naj da za odkupnino svojega življenja, karkoli mu bo naloženo.
If there be laid on him a ransom, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
31 Če je nabodel sina ali nabodel hčer, naj mu bo storjeno glede na to sodbo.
Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
32 Če bo vol pobodel sluga ali deklo, naj njihovemu gospodarju da trideset šeklov srebra, vol pa naj bo kamnan.
If the ox gore a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
33 Če bo človek odprl jamo ali če bo človek izkopal jamo in je ne bo pokril in vanjo pade vol ali osel,
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 fall therein,
34 naj lastnik jame to dobro naredi in da denar lastniku le-teh; mrtva žival pa naj bo njegova.
the owner of the pit shall make it good; he shall give money unto the owner of them, and the dead [beast] shall be his.
35 Če pa vol nekega človeka poškoduje drugega, da ta umre, potem naj prodajo živega vola in razdelijo denar od njega; in prav tako naj razdelijo mrtvega vola.
And if one man’s ox hurt another’s, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the price of it; and the dead also they shall divide.
36 Ali če je bilo znano, da je imel vol navado v preteklem času bosti, pa ga njegov lastnik ni imel zaprtega, naj zagotovo plača vola za vola, mrtvi pa naj bo njegov.
Or if it be known that the ox was wont to gore in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead [beast] shall be his own.
