< Éxodo 22 >
1 Cuando alguno hurtare buey, u oveja, y lo degollare, o vendiere, por aquel buey pagará cinco bueyes, y por aquella oveja cuatro ovejas.
If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2 Si el ladrón fuere hallado en la mina, y fuere herido, y muriere, el que le hirió no será culpado de su muerte.
If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, [there shall] no blood [be shed] for him.
3 Si el sol hubiere salido sobre él, él será reo de muerte, pagando pagará: si no tuviere, será vendido por su hurto.
If the sun shall have risen upon him, [there shall be] blood [shed] for him: [for] he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 Si fuere hallado con el hurto en la mano, buey, o asno, u oveja, vivos, pagará dos.
If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
5 Si alguno paciere tierra o viña, y metiere su bestia, y comiere la tierra de otro, lo mejor de su tierra y lo mejor de su viña pagará.
If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man's field: of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard shall he make restitution.
6 Cuando saliere el fuego, y hallare espinas, y fuere quemado montón, o haza, o tierra, el que encendió el fuego pagará lo quemado.
If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 Cuando alguno diere a su prójimo plata, o vasos a guardar, y fuere hurtado de la casa de aquel hombre, si el ladrón se hallare, pagará el doble:
If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.
8 Si el ladrón no se hallare, entonces el dueño de la casa será llegado a los jueces para jurar si ha metido su mano en la hacienda de su prójimo.
If the thief shall not be found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, [to see] whether he hath put his hand to his neighbor's goods.
9 Sobre todo negocio de fraude, sobre buey, sobre asno, sobre oveja, sobre vestido, sobre toda cosa perdida, cuando alguno dijere: Que esto es; la causa de ambos vendrá delante de los jueces, y el que los jueces condenaren, pagará el doble a su prójimo.
For all manner of trespass, [whether it be] for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, [or] for any manner of lost thing which [another] challengeth to be his: the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; [and] he whom the judges shall condemn, shall pay double to his neighbor.
10 Si alguno hubiere dado a su prójimo asno, o buey, u oveja, o cualquiera otro animal a guardar, y se muriere, o se perniquebrare, o fuere cautivado sin verlo nadie:
If a man shall deliver to his neighbor an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast to keep; and it shall die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing [it]:
11 Juramento de Jehová será entre ambos, que no metió su mano en la hacienda de su prójimo. Y su dueño se contentará, y el otro no pagará.
[Then] shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept of it, and he shall not make restitution.
12 Mas si le hubiere sido hurtado, pagar lo ha a su dueño.
And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
13 Mas si le hubiere sido arrebatado, traerle ha testimonio, y no pagará lo arrebatado.
If it shall be torn in pieces; [then] let him bring it [for] witness, [and] he shall not make good that which was torn.
14 Ítem, cuando alguno hubiere tomado emprestado de su prójimo, y fuere perniquebrado o muerto, ausente su dueño, pagará.
And if a man shall borrow [aught] of his neighbor, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it [being] not with it, he shall surely make [it] good.
15 Si su dueño estaba presente, no pagará. Si era de alquiler, el vendrá por su alquile.
[But] if the owner of it shall [be] with it, he shall not make [it] good: if it [be] a hired [thing], it came for his hire.
16 Ítem, cuando alguno engañare a alguna virgen que no fuere desposada, y durmiere con ella, dotarla ha por su mujer.
And if a man shall entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
17 Si su padre no quisiere dársela, él le pesará plata conforme al dote de las vírgenes.
If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dower of virgins.
18 A la hechicera no darás la vida.
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19 Cualquiera que tuviere ayuntamiento con bestia, morirá.
Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 El que sacrificare a dioses, sino a solo Jehová, morirá.
He that sacrificeth to [any] god, save to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 Y al extranjero no engañaras, ni angustiarás, porque extranjeros fuisteis vosotros en la tierra de Egipto,
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 A ninguna viuda ni huérfano afligiréis.
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23 Que si tú afligiendo los afligieres, y ellos clamando clamaren a mí, yo oyendo oiré su clamor;
If thou shalt afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry:
24 Y mi furor se encenderá, y mataros he a cuchillo, y vuestras mujeres serán viudas, y vuestros hijos huérfanos.
And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 Si dieres a mi pueblo dinero emprestado, al pobre que está contigo, no te habrás con él como usurero, no le impondréis usura.
If thou shalt lend money to [any of] my people [that is] poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26 Si tomares en prenda el vestido de tu prójimo, a puesta del sol se lo volverás:
If thou shalt at all take thy neighbor's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.
27 Porque solo aquello es su cobertura, aquel es el vestido de sus carnes en que ha de dormir: y será, que cuando él clamare a mí, yo entonces lo oiré, porque soy misericordioso.
For that [is] his only covering, it [is] his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I [am] gracious.
28 A los dioses no injuriarás, ni maldecirás al príncipe en tu pueblo.
Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29 Tu plenitud, ni tu lágrima, no dilatarás, el primogénito de tus hijos me darás.
Thou shalt not delay [to offer] the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the first-born of thy sons shalt thou give to me.
30 Así harás de tu buey, de tu oveja: siete días estará con su madre, y al octavo día me lo darás.
Likewise shalt thou do with thy oxen, [and] with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
31 Y serme heis varones santos: y carne arrebatada en el campo no comeréis, echarla heis al perro.
And ye shall be holy men to me: neither shall ye eat [any] flesh [that is] torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
