Baxniintii 21
1 Haddaba kuwanu waa amarradii aad hortooda dhigi lahayd.
Now these are the laws which you are to put before them.
2 Haddaad addoon Cibraani ah iibsatid, ha kuu adeego lix sannadood, oo tan toddobaadna ha iska tago isagoo xor ah oo aan waxba bixin.
If you get a Hebrew servant for money, he is to be your servant for six years, and in the seventh year you are to let him go free without payment.
3 Oo hadduu keli ahaantiis ku soo galo, haddana keli ahaantiis ha ku baxo, hadduuse naag qabo, de markaas waa inay naagtiisu isaga la baxdaa.
If he comes to you by himself, let him go away by himself: if he is married, let his wife go away with him.
4 Haddii sayidkiisu naag siiyona, oo ay wiilal iyo gabdho u dhasho, de markaas naagta iyo carruurteedaba waxaa iska lahaanaya sayidkeedii, oo waa inuu isagu keligiis iska baxaa.
If his master gives him a wife, and he gets sons or daughters by her, the wife and her children will be the property of the master, and the servant is to go away by himself.
5 Laakiinse haddii addoonku bayaan u yidhaahdo, Anigu waan jeclahay sayidkayga, iyo naagtayda, iyo carruurtayda, oo anigoo xor ah bixi maayo,
But if the servant says clearly, My master and my wife and children are dear to me; I have no desire to be free:
6 de markaas waa in sayidkiisu xaakinnada u keenaa, oo waa inuu albaabka ag keenaa, ama tiirka albaabka; markaas sayidkiisu dhegta mudac ha kaga dalooliyo; oo weligiis ha u adeego.
Then his master is to take him to the gods of the house, and at the door, or at its framework, he is to make a hole in his ear with a sharp-pointed instrument; and he will be his servant for ever.
7 Oo haddii nin gabadhiisa u iibiyo inay addoon noqoto, waa inaanay dibadda u bixin sida addoommada nimanka ahu ay u baxaan.
And if a man gives his daughter for a price to be a servant, she is not to go away free as the men-servants do.
8 Oo haddaanay raalli gelin sayidkeedii doonay iyada, de markaas waa inuu sii daayo iyada, ha la madax furto, laakiinse amar uma lahaan doono inuu iyada dad qalaad ka iibiyo, waayo, khiyaano ayuu kula macaamilooday iyada.
If she is not pleasing to her master who has taken her for himself, let a payment be made for her so that she may go free; her master has no power to get a price for her and send her to a strange land, because he has been false to her.
9 Oo hadduu iyada wiilkiisa u guursho, de waa inuu iyada ula macaamiloodaa sida gabdhaha loola macaamiloodo.
And if he gives her to his son, he is to do everything for her as if she was his daughter.
10 Oo hadduu naag kale la guursado, waa inuusan inna ka dhimin masruufkeeda, iyo dharkeeda, iyo xaqa naagnimadeeda.
And if he takes another woman, her food and clothing and her married rights are not to be less.
11 Oo hadduusan saddexdaas iyada u samayn, markaas lacagla'aan ha ku baxdo.
And if he does not do these three things for her, she has the right to go free without payment.
12 Kii nin wax ku dhufta si uu ninku u dhinto, isagana hubaal waa in la dilaa.
He who gives a man a death-blow is himself to be put to death.
13 Oo haddii aanu gaadin, laakiinse Ilaah u dhiibo gacantiisa, de markaas anaa kuu samayn doona meel uu ku cararo.
But if he had no evil purpose against him, and God gave him into his hand, I will give you a place to which he may go in flight.
14 Oo haddii nin kibir ula badheedho inuu deriskiisa khiyaano ku dilo, waa inaad isaga ka waddaa meeshayda allabariga, ha dhintee.
But if a man makes an attack on his neighbour on purpose, to put him to death by deceit, you are to take him from my altar and put him to death.
15 Oo kii aabbihiis ama hooyadiis wax ku dhufta, hubaal kaas waa in la dilaa.
Any man who gives a blow to his father or his mother is certainly to be put to death.
16 Oo kii intuu nin xada iibiya ama gacantiisaba laga helo, hubaal kaas waa in la dilaa.
Any man who gets another into his power in order to get a price for him is to be put to death, if you take him in the act.
17 Oo kii aabbihiis ama hooyadiis caaya, hubaal kaas waa in la dilaa.
Any man cursing his father or his mother is to be put to death.
18 Oo haddii niman diriraan, oo midkood kan kale dhagax ama feedh ku dhufto, oo uusan dhiman, laakiinse uu sariir ku jiif noqdo;
If, in a fight, one man gives another a blow with a stone, or with the shut hand, not causing his death, but making him keep in bed;
19 kaasu hadduu mar kale sara kaco oo uu dibadda u baxo isagoo ushiisa ku tukubaya, markaas kii wax ku dhuftay eed ma leh, laakiinse waa inuu siiyaa wixii ka khasaaroobay intuu jiifay, waana inuu dhaqaaleeyo ilaa uu ka bogsado.
If he is able to get up again and go about with a stick, the other will be let off; only he will have to give him payment for the loss of his time, and see that he is cared for till he is well.
20 Haddii nin addoonkiisa ama addoontiisa uu ul ku dhufto, oo uu gacantiisa ku dhinto, kaas hubaal waa in la ciqaabaa.
If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant blows with a rod, causing death, he is certainly to undergo punishment.
21 Kan la dilayse hadduu maalin ama laba sii joogo, de markaas waa inaan la ciqaabin, waayo, isagu waa lacagtiisii.
But, at the same time, if the servant goes on living for a day or two, the master is not to get punishment, for the servant is his property.
22 Oo haddii niman diriraan oo ay wax yeelaan naag uur leh, oo uu ilmaheedu ka soo dhaco, laakiinse dhib kale aanu dhicin, kaas waa in lagu ganaaxaa intii ninkii naagta qabay uu kor saaro, oo waa inuu bixiyaa intii xaakinnadu ku xukumaan.
If men, while fighting, do damage to a woman with child, causing the loss of the child, but no other evil comes to her, the man will have to make payment up to the amount fixed by her husband, in agreement with the decision of the judges.
23 Laakiinse haddii dhib kale dhacdo, waa inaad naf naf u dishaa,
But if damage comes to her, let life be given in payment for life,
24 oo waa inaad il il u riddaa, iligna ilig u riddaa, gacanna gacan u gooysaa, cagna cag u gooysaa,
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25 oo kii wax guba, gub, kii wax dhaawacana, dhaawac, kii wax karbaashana, karbaash.
Burning for burning, wound for wound, blow for blow.
26 Oo haddii nin isha addoonkiisa ama isha addoontiisa wax ku dhufto, oo ka rido, de markaas waa inuu iska sii daayaa isagoo xor ah, ishiisa aawadeed.
If a man gives his man-servant or his woman-servant a blow in the eye, causing its destruction, he is to let him go free on account of the damage to his eye.
27 Oo hadduu iligga addoonkiisa ama iligga addoontiisa wax ku dhufto oo ka rido, de markaas waa inuu iska sii daayaa isagoo xor ah iliggiisa aawadiis.
Or if the loss of a tooth is caused by his blow, he will let him go free on account of his tooth.
28 Oo haddii dibi nin ama naag geeso ku mudo, oo ay dhintaan, markaas hubaal waa in dibiga la dhagxiyaa, oo hilibkiisana waa inaan la cunin; laakiinse qofkii dibiga lahaa waxba eed ma leh.
If an ox comes to be the cause of death to a man or a woman, the ox is to be stoned, and its flesh may not be used for food; but the owner will not be judged responsible.
29 Laakiinse haddii markii hore dibigu dad geesaha ku mudi jiray, oo loo sheegay qofkii lahaa, isaguse aanu xidhin, laakiinse uu dibigu nin ama naag dilay, dibiga waa in la dhagxiyaa, oo weliba qofkii lahaana waa in isna la dilaa.
But if the ox has frequently done such damage in the past, and the owner has had word of it and has not kept it under control, so that it has been the cause of the death of a man or woman, not only is the ox to be stoned, but its owner is to be put to death.
30 Haddiise mag la saaro isaga, de markaas waa inuu bixiyaa wax alla wixii la kor saaray madaxfurashadiisa aawadeed.
If a price is put on his life, let him make payment of whatever price is fixed.
31 Hadduu wiil geeso ku muday iyo hadduu gabadh geeso ku mudayba waa in xukunkan lagu qaadaa.
If the death of a son or of a daughter has been caused, the punishment is to be in agreement with this rule.
32 Oo haddii dibigii geeso ku mudo nin addoon ah ama naag addoon ah, waa inuu ninkii dibiga lahaa sayidkoodii soddon sheqel oo lacag ah siiyaa, oo dibigana waa in la dhagxiyaa.
If the death of a man-servant or of a woman-servant is caused by the ox, the owner is to give their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox is to be stoned.
33 Oo haddii nin god daboolka ka qaado, ama haddii nin god qodo oo uu dabooli waayo, oo uu ama dibi ama dameer ku dhaco,
If a man makes a hole in the earth without covering it up, and an ox or an ass dropping into it comes to its death;
34 de markaas waa in ninkii godka lahaa xaq mariyaa. Waa inuu lacag siiyaa ninkii neefka lahaa, oo neefka dhintayna waa inuu isagu lahaado.
The owner of the hole is responsible; he will have to make payment to their owner, but the dead beast will be his.
35 Oo haddii nin dibigiis nin kale dibigiis wax yeelo oo uu dhinto, de markaas waa inay dibiga nool iibiyaan, oo qiimihiisa waa inay qaybsadaan; oo weliba kan dhintayna waa inay qaybsadaan.
And if one man's ox does damage to another man's ox, causing its death, then the living ox is to be exchanged for money, and division made of the price of it, and of the price of the dead one.
36 Ama haddii dibiga lagu yiqiin inuu markii hore wax geeso ku mudi jiray, oo uusan qofkii lahaa xidhin, markaas hubaal waa inuu dibi dibi ku bixiyaa, oo neefka dhintayna waa inuu isagu lahaado.
But if it is common knowledge that the ox has frequently done such damage in the past, and its owner has not kept it under control, he will have to give ox for ox; and the dead beast will be his.
