Exodo 21

1 Ito nga ang mga hatol na igagawad mo sa harap nila.

“Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them:

2 Kung ikaw ay bumili ng isang aliping Hebreo, ay anim na taong maglilingkod siya; at sa ikapito ay aalis siyang laya na walang sauling bayad.

“If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years, and in the seventh he shall go out free without paying anything.

3 Kung siya'y pumasok na magisa, ay aalis na mag-isa: kung may asawa ay aalis nga ang kaniyang asawa na kasama niya.

If he comes in by himself, he shall go out by himself. If he is married, then his wife shall go out with him.

4 Kung siya'y bigyan ng kaniyang panginoon ng asawa, at magkaanak sa kaniya ng mga lalake, o mga babae; ang asawa at ang kaniyang mga anak ay magiging sa kaniyang panginoon, at siya'y aalis na magisa.

If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself.

5 Datapuwa't kung maliwanag na sabihin ng alipin, Aking iniibig ang aking panginoon, ang aking asawa, at ang aking mga anak; ako'y hindi aalis na laya:

But if the servant shall plainly say, ‘I love my master, my wife, and my children. I will not go out free;’

6 Kung magkagayo'y dadalhin siya ng kaniyang panginoon sa Dios, at dadalhin siya sa pinto, o sa haligi ng pinto; at bubutasan ng kaniyang panginoon ang kaniyang tainga ng isang pangbutas; at paglilingkuran niya siya magpakailan man.

then his master shall bring him to God, and shall bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him forever.

7 At kung ipagbili ng isang lalake ang kaniyang anak na babae na maging alipin, ay hindi siya aalis na gaya ng pagalis ng mga aliping lalake.

“If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go out as the male servants do.

8 Kung siya'y hindi makapagpalugod sa kaniyang panginoon, na umayaw magasawa sa kaniya, ay ipatutubos nga niya siya: walang kapangyarihang ipagbili siya sa isang taga ibang lupa, yamang siya'y nadaya.

If she doesn’t please her master, who has married her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9 At kung pinapag-asawa ng bumili sa kaniyang anak na lalake, ay kaniyang ipalalagay siya ng ayon sa kaugalian sa mga anak na babae.

If he marries her to his son, he shall deal with her as a daughter.

10 Kung siya'y magasawa sa iba, ang kaniyang pagkain, ang kaniyang damit at ang kaniyang kapangyarihang pagkaasawa ay hindi niya babawasan.

If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights.

11 At kung hindi niya gawin ang tatlong bagay na ito sa kaniya ay aalis nga siya na walang bayad, na walang tubos na salapi.

If he doesn’t do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.

12 Ang sumakit sa isang tao, na ano pa't mamatay ay papataying walang pagsala.

“One who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death,

13 At kung hindi sinasadya ng isang tao, kundi Dios ang naghulog sa kaniyang kamay; ay lalaanan kita ng isang dako na kaniyang tatakasan.

but not if it is unintentional, but God allows it to happen; then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee.

14 At kung magtangka ang sinoman sa kaniyang kapuwa, na pumatay na may daya, ay alisin mo siya sa aking dambana, upang patayin.

If a man schemes and comes presumptuously on his neighbour to kill him, you shall take him from my altar, that he may die.

15 At ang sumakit sa kaniyang ama o sa kaniyang ina, ay papataying walang pagsala.

“Anyone who attacks his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.

16 At ang magnakaw ng isang tao, at ipagbili, o masumpungan sa kaniyang kamay, ay papataying walang pagsala.

“Anyone who kidnaps someone and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

17 At ang lumait sa kaniyang ama, o sa kaniyang ina, ay papataying walang pagsala.

“Anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.

18 At kung may magbabag, at saktan ng isa ang isa, ng bato, o ng kaniyang suntok, at hindi mamatay, kundi mahiga lamang sa banig:

“If men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he doesn’t die, but is confined to bed;

19 Kung makabangon uli, at makalakad sa tulong ng kaniyang tungkod, ay ligtas nga yaong sumakit sa kaniya; pagbabayaran lamang niya ang panahong nasayang, at kaniyang pagagalinging maigi.

if he rises again and walks around with his staff, then he who struck him shall be cleared; only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall provide for his healing until he is thoroughly healed.

20 At kung saktan ng sinoman ang kaniyang aliping lalake o babae, ng tungkod at mamatay sa kaniyang kamay; ay parurusahan siyang walang pagsala.

“If a man strikes his servant or his maid with a rod, and he dies under his hand, the man shall surely be punished.

21 Gayon ma'y kung tumagal ng isang araw o dalawa, ay hindi siya parurusahan: sapagka't siya'y kaniyang salapi.

Notwithstanding, if his servant gets up after a day or two, he shall not be punished, for the servant is his property.

22 At kung may magbabag, at makasakit ng isang babaing buntis, na ano pa't makunan, at gayon ma'y walang karamdamang sumunod: ay tunay na papagbabayarin siya, ayon sa iatang sa kaniya ng asawa ng babae; at siya'y magbabayad ng ayon sa ipasiya ng mga hukom.

“If men fight and hurt a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely, and yet no harm follows, he shall be surely fined as much as the woman’s husband demands and the judges allow.

23 Datapuwa't kung may anomang karamdamang sumunod, magbabayad ka nga ng buhay kung buhay,

But if any harm follows, then you must take life for life,

24 Mata kung mata, ngipin kung ngipin, kamay kung kamay, paa kung paa,

eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,

25 Paso kung paso, sugat kung sugat, bugbog kung bugbog.

burning for burning, wound for wound, and bruise for bruise.

26 At kung saktan ng sinoman ang mata ng kaniyang aliping lalake, o ang mata ng kaniyang aliping babae at mabulag, ay kaniyang palalayain dahil sa kaniyang mata.

“If a man strikes his servant’s eye, or his maid’s eye, and destroys it, he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake.

27 At kung kaniyang bungalan ang kaniyang aliping lalake, o babae, ay kaniyang palalayain dahil sa kaniyang ngipin.

If he strikes out his male servant’s tooth, or his female servant’s tooth, he shall let the servant go free for his tooth’s sake.

28 At kung ang isang baka ay manuwag ng isang lalake o ng isang babae, na ano pa't mamatay, ay babatuhing walang pagsala ang baka at ang kaniyang lama'y hindi kakanin; datapuwa't ang may-ari ng baka ay maliligtas.

“If a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull shall surely be stoned, and its meat shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall not be held responsible.

29 Datapuwa't kung ang baka ay dating manunuwag sa panahong nakaraan, at naisumbong na sa may-ari at hindi niya kinulong, na ano pa't makamatay ng isang lalake, o isang babae: ay babatuhin ang baka at ang may-ari naman ay papatayin.

But if the bull had a habit of goring in the past, and this has been testified to its owner, and he has not kept it in, but it has killed a man or a woman, the bull shall be stoned, and its owner shall also be put to death.

30 Kung siya'y atangan ng katubusan ay magbibigay nga siya ng katubusan sa kaniyang buhay anomang iatang sa kaniya.

If a ransom is imposed on him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is imposed.

31 Maging manuwag sa isang anak na lalake o babae man, ay gagawin sa kaniya ayon sa kahatulang ito.

Whether it has gored a son or has gored a daughter, according to this judgement it shall be done to him.

32 Kung ang baka ay manuwag sa isang aliping lalake o babae, ay magbabayad ang may-ari ng tatlong pung siklong pilak sa kanilang panginoon, at ang baka ay babatuhin.

If the bull gores a male servant or a female servant, thirty shekels of silver shall be given to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.

33 At kung ang sinoman ay magbubukas ng isang balon, o huhukay ng isang balon at hindi tatakpan, at ang isang baka, o ang isang asno ay mahulog sa loob,

“If a man opens a pit, or if a man digs a pit and doesn’t cover it, and a bull or a donkey falls into it,

34 Ay sasaulian ng may-ari ng balon; magbabayad siya ng salapi sa may-ari ng mga yaon, at ang patay na hayop ay magiging kaniya.

the owner of the pit shall make it good. He shall give money to its owner, and the dead animal shall be his.

35 At kung ang baka ng sinoman ay sumakit sa baka ng iba, na ano pa't mamatay; ay kanila ngang ipagbibili ang bakang buhay, at kanilang paghahatiin ang halaga niyaon; at ang patay ay paghahatiin din nila.

“If one man’s bull injures another’s, so that it dies, then they shall sell the live bull, and divide its price; and they shall also divide the dead animal.

36 O kung kilala, na ang baka ay dating manunuwag sa panahong nakaraan, at hindi kinulong ng may-ari; ay tunay ngang magbabayad siya, ng baka kung baka, at ang patay na hayop ay magiging kaniyang sarili.

Or if it is known that the bull was in the habit of goring in the past, and its owner has not kept it in, he shall surely pay bull for bull, and the dead animal shall be his own.
