1. `And these are the judgments which thou dost set before them:
|
1. Now these H428 are the judgments H4941 which H834 thou shalt set H7760 before H6440 them.
|
|
2. `When thou buyest a Hebrew servant -- six years he doth serve, and in the seventh he goeth out as a freeman for nought;
|
2. If H3588 thou buy H7069 a Hebrew H5680 servant H5650 , six H8337 years H8141 he shall serve H5647 : and in the seventh H7637 he shall go out H3318 free H2670 for nothing H2600 .
|
|
3. if by himself he cometh in, by himself he goeth out; if he is owner of a wife, then his wife hath gone out with him;
|
3. If H518 he came in H935 by himself H1610 , he shall go out H3318 by himself H1610 : if H518 he H1931 were married H1167 H802 , then his wife H802 shall go out H3318 with H5973 him.
|
|
4. if his lord give to him a wife, and she hath borne to him sons or daughters -- the wife and her children are her lord`s, and he goeth out by himself.
|
4. If H518 his master H113 have given H5414 him a wife H802 , and she have born H3205 him sons H1121 or H176 daughters H1323 ; the wife H802 and her children H3206 shall be H1961 her master H113 's , and he H1931 shall go out H3318 by himself H1610 .
|
|
5. `And if the servant really say: I have loved my lord, my wife, and my sons -- I do not go out free;
|
5. And if H518 the servant H5650 shall plainly say H559 H559 , I love H157 H853 my master H113 , H853 my wife H802 , and my children H1121 ; I will not H3808 go out H3318 free H2670 :
|
|
6. then hath his lord brought him nigh unto God, and hath brought him nigh unto the door, or unto the side-post, and his lord hath bored his ear with an awl, and he hath served him -- to the age.
|
6. Then his master H113 shall bring H5066 him unto H413 the judges H430 ; he shall also bring H5066 him to H413 the door H1817 , or H176 unto H413 the door post H4201 ; and his master H113 shall bore his ear through H7527 H853 H241 with an awl H4836 ; and he shall serve H5647 him forever H5769 .
|
|
7. `And when a man selleth his daughter for a handmaid, she doth not go out according to the going out of the men-servants;
|
7. And if H3588 a man H376 sell H4376 H853 his daughter H1323 to be a maidservant H519 , she shall not H3808 go out H3318 as the menservants H5650 do H3318 .
|
|
8. if evil in the eyes of her lord, so that he hath not betrothed her, then he hath let her be ransomed; to a strange people he hath not power to sell her, in his dealing treacherously with her.
|
8. If H518 she please not H7451 H5869 her master H113 , who H834 hath betrothed H3808 H3259 her to himself , then shall he let her be redeemed H6299 : to sell H4376 her unto a strange H5237 nation H5971 he shall have no H3808 power H4910 , seeing he hath dealt deceitfully H898 with her.
|
|
9. `And if to his son he betroth her, according to the right of daughters he doth to her.
|
9. And if H518 he have betrothed H3259 her unto his son H1121 , he shall deal H6213 with her after the manner H4941 of daughters H1323 .
|
|
10. `If another woman he take for him, her food, her covering, and her habitation, he doth not withdraw;
|
10. If H518 he take H3947 him another H312 wife ; her food H7607 , her raiment H3682 , and her duty of marriage H5772 , shall he not H3808 diminish H1639 .
|
|
11. and if these three he do not to her, then she hath gone out for nought, without money.
|
11. And if H518 he do H6213 not H3808 these H428 three H7969 unto her , then shall she go out H3318 free H2600 without H369 money H3701 .
|
|
12. `He who smiteth a man so that he hath died, is certainly put to death;
|
12. He that smiteth H5221 a man H376 , so that he die H4191 , shall be surely put to death H4191 H4191 .
|
|
13. as to him who hath not laid wait, and God hath brought to his hand, I have even set for thee a place whither he doth flee.
|
13. And if H834 a man lie not in wait H6658 H3808 , but God H430 deliver H579 him into his hand H3027 ; then I will appoint H7760 thee a place H4725 whither H834 H8033 he shall flee H5127 .
|
|
14. `And when a man doth presume against his neighbour to slay him with subtilty, from Mine altar thou dost take him to die.
|
14. But if H3588 a man H376 come presumptuously H2102 upon H5921 his neighbor H7453 , to slay H2026 him with guile H6195 ; thou shalt take H3947 him from H4480 H5973 mine altar H4196 , that he may die H4191 .
|
|
15. `And he who smiteth his father or his mother is certainly put to death.
|
15. And he that smiteth H5221 his father H1 , or his mother H517 , shall be surely put to death H4191 H4191 .
|
|
16. `And he who stealeth a man, and hath sold him, and he hath been found in his hand, is certainly put to death.
|
16. And he that stealeth H1589 a man H376 , and selleth H4376 him , or if he be found H4672 in his hand H3027 , he shall surely be put to death H4191 H4191 .
|
|
17. `And he who is reviling his father or his mother is certainly put to death.
|
17. And he that curseth H7043 his father H1 , or his mother H517 , shall surely be put to death H4191 H4191 .
|
|
18. `And when men contend, and a man hath smitten his neighbour with a stone, or with the fist, and he die not, but hath fallen on the bed;
|
18. And if H3588 men H376 strive together H7378 , and one H376 smite H5221 H853 another H7453 with a stone H68 , or H176 with his fist H106 , and he die H4191 not H3808 , but keepeth H5307 his bed H4904 :
|
|
19. if he rise, and hath gone up and down without on his staff, then hath the smiter been acquitted; only his cessation he giveth, and he is thoroughly healed.
|
19. If H518 he rise again H6965 , and walk H1980 abroad H2351 upon H5921 his staff H4938 , then shall he that smote H5221 him be quit H5352 : only H7535 he shall pay H5414 for the loss of his time H7674 , and shall cause him to be thoroughly healed H7495 H7495 .
|
|
20. `And when a man smiteth his man-servant or his handmaid, with a rod, and he hath died under his hand -- he is certainly avenged;
|
20. And if H3588 a man H376 smite H5221 H853 his servant H5650 , or H176 H853 his maid H519 , with a rod H7626 , and he die H4191 under H8478 his hand H3027 ; he shall be surely punished H5358 H5358 .
|
|
21. only if he remain a day, or two days, he is not avenged, for he is his money.
|
21. Notwithstanding H389 , if H518 he continue H5975 a day H3117 or H176 two H3117 , he shall not H3808 be punished H5358 : for H3588 he H1931 is his money H3701 .
|
|
22. `And when men strive, and have smitten a pregnant woman, and her children have come out, and there is no mischief, he is certainly fined, as the husband of the woman doth lay upon him, and he hath given through the judges;
|
22. If H3588 men H376 strive H5327 , and hurt H5062 a woman H802 with child H2030 , so that her fruit H3206 depart H3318 from her , and yet no H3808 mischief H611 follow H1961 : he shall be surely punished H6064 H6064 , according as H834 the woman H802 's husband H1167 will lay H7896 upon H5921 him ; and he shall pay H5414 as the judges H6414 determine .
|
|
23. and if there is mischief, then thou hast given life for life,
|
23. And if H518 any mischief H611 follow H1961 , then thou shalt give H5414 life H5315 for H8478 life H5315 ,

26. `And when a man smiteth the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his handmaid, and hath destroyed it, as a freeman he doth send him away for his eye;
|
26. And if H3588 a man H376 smite H5221 H853 the eye H5869 of his servant H5650 , or H176 H853 the eye H5869 of his maid H519 , that it perish H7843 ; he shall let him go H7971 free H2670 for his eye's sake H8478 H5869 .

|
|
28. `And when an ox doth gore man or woman, and they have died, the ox is certainly stoned, and his flesh is not eaten, and the owner of the ox is acquitted;
|
28. If H3588 an ox H7794 gore H5055 H853 a man H376 or H176 H853 a woman H802 , that they die H4191 : then the ox H7794 shall be surely stoned H5619 H5619 , and H853 his flesh H1320 shall not H3808 be eaten H398 ; but the owner H1167 of the ox H7794 shall be quit H5355 .

|
29. But if H518 the ox H7794 were wont to push with his horn H5056 in time past H4480 H8543 H8032 , and it hath been testified H5749 to his owner H1167 , and he hath not H3808 kept him in H8104 , but that he hath killed H4191 a man H376 or H176 a woman H802 ; the ox H7794 shall be stoned H5619 , and his owner H1167 also H1571 shall be put to death H4191 .

32. If H518 the ox H7794 shall push H5055 a manservant H5650 or H176 a maidservant H519 ; he shall give H5414 unto their master H113 thirty H7970 shekels H8255 of silver H3701 , and the ox H7794 shall be stoned H5619 .
|
|
33. `And when a man doth open a pit, or when a man doth dig a pit, and doth not cover it, and an ox or ass hath fallen thither, --

|
35. `And when a man`s ox doth smite the ox of his neighbour, and it hath died, then they have sold the living ox, and halved its money, and also the dead one they do halve;
|
35. And if H3588 one man H376 's ox H7794 hurt H5062 H853 another H7794 H7453 's , that he die H4191 ; then they shall sell H4376 H853 the live H2416 ox H7794 , and divide H2673 H853 the money H3701 of it ; and H853 the dead H4191 ox also H1571 they shall divide H2673 .
|
|
36. or, it hath been known that the ox is one accustomed to gore heretofore, and its owner doth not watch it, he certainly repayeth ox for ox, and the dead is his.

36. Or H176 if it be known H3045 that H3588 the ox H7794 hath used to push H5056 in time past H4480 H8543 H8032 , and his owner H1167 hath not H3808 kept him in H8104 ; he shall surely pay H7999 H7999 ox H7794 for H8478 ox H7794 ; and the dead H4191 shall be H1961 his own.
