AFR DVK
2
If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
As jy ’n Hebreër dienskneg koop, moet hy ses jaar dien: en in die sewende moet hy vry uitgaan sonder betaling.
3
If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
As hy alleen inkom, moet hy alleen uitgaan: as hy getroud was, dan moet sy vrou saam met hom uitgaan.
4
If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself.
As sy heer vir hom ‚'n vrou gegee het, en sy het vir hom seuns of dogters gebaar; die vrou en haar kinders moet aan haar heer behoort, en hy moet alleen uitgaan.
5
And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
En as die dienskneg duidelik sê, Ek het my heer, my vrou, en my kinders lief; ek wil nie vry uitgaan nie:
6
Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.
Dan moet sy heer hom na die regters bring; hy moet hom ook na die deur, of na die deurpos bring; en sy heer moet sy oor met ‚'n priem deurboor; en hy moet hom vir ewig dien.
7
And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
En as ‚'n man sy dogter as diensmaagd verkoop, mag sy nie soos die diensknegte uitgaan nie.
8
If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
As sy sleg is in die oë van haar heer, wat haar vir homself bestem het, dan moet hy haar laat loskoop: hy mag haar nie aan ’n vreemde volk verkoop nie, aangesien hy haar bedrieg het.
9
And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
En as hy haar vir sy seun bestem het, moet hy met haar handel volgens die reg van die dogters.
10
If he take him another [wife]; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
As hy vir hom ‚'n ander neem, mag hy haar voedsel, haar kleding, en haar huweliksreg nie verminder nie.
11
And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
En as hy hierdie drie dinge nie vir haar doen nie, dan mag sy uitgaan sonder geld.
12
He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.
Hy wat ‚'n man so slaan dat hy sterwe, moet sekerlik gedood word.
13
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.
En as ’n man nie lê en wag nie, maar God dit in sy hand laat val; dan sal ek vir jou ’n plek aanwys waarheen hy mag vlug.
14
But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
Maar as ‚'n man moedswillig teen sy naaste optree om hom met listigheid dood te maak, moet jy hom van my altaar af wegneem, dat hy mag sterwe.
15
And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
En hy wat sy vader of sy moeder slaan, moet sekerlik gedood word.
16
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
En hy wat ‚'n man steel, en hom verkoop, of as hy in sy hand gevind word, moet sekerlik gedood word.
17
And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
En hy wat sy vader of sy moeder vervloek, moet sekerlik gedood word.
18
And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with [his] fist, and he die not, but keepeth [his] bed:
En as manne twis, en die een die ander met ’n klip of met sy vuis slaan, en hy sterwe nie, maar in die bed bly lê:
19
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.
As hy opstaan, en buite met sy staf rondloop, dan sal hy wat geslaan het, onskuldig wees: net hy moet sy verlies van tyd vergoed, en moet sorg dat hy heeltemal genees word.
20
And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
En as ‚'n man sy dienskneg of sy diensmaagd met ‚'n stok slaan, en hy sterwe onder sy hand; moet hy sekerlik gestraf word.
21
Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he [is] his money.
Maar as hy ‚'n dag of twee bly lewe, moet hy nie gestraf word nie: want hy is sy geld.
22
If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart [from her], and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges [determine].
As manne twis, en ’n swanger vrou seermaak, sodat haar kind uitkom, en daar geen skade is nie: moet hy sekerlik gestraf word soos die vrou se man hom oplê; en hy moet betaal soos die regters bepaal.
23
And if [any] mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
En as daar skade is, dan moet jy gee lewe vir lewe,
24
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Oog vir oog, tand vir tand, hand vir hand, voet vir voet,
25
Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
Brandmerk vir brandmerk, wond vir wond, blou plek vir blou plek.
26
And if a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye’s sake.
En as ‚'n man die oog van sy dienskneg of die oog van sy diensmaagd uitslaan, dat dit vergaan; moet hy hom vry laat gaan om sy oog se ontwil.
27
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.
En as hy die tand van sy dienskneg of die tand van sy diensmaagd uitslaan; moet hy hom vry laat gaan om sy tand se ontwil.
28
If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox [shall be] quit.
As ’n os ’n man of ’n vrou stoot, sodat hulle sterwe; dan moet die os sekerlik gestenig word, en sy vlees mag nie geëet word nie; maar die eienaar van die os moet onskuldig wees.
29
But if the ox were wont to push with his horn 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.
Maar as die os vantevore stootgeneigd was, en dit aan sy eienaar bekend gemaak is, en hy hom nie inhou nie, maar dat hy ‚'n man of ‚'n vrou doodmaak; moet die os gestenig word, en sy eienaar moet ook gedood word.
30
If there be laid on him a sum of money, then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
As daar ’n losprys op hom gelê word, dan moet hy tot die losprys van sy lewe gee alles wat op hom gelê word.
31
Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
Of hy ‚'n seun gestoot het, of ‚'n dogter gestoot het, volgens hierdie oordeel moet met hom gehandel word.
32
If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
As die os ‚'n dienskneg of ‚'n diensmaagd stoot; moet hy aan hulle heer dertig sikkels silwer gee, en die os moet gestenig word.
33
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;
En as ‚'n man ‚'n put oopmaak, of as ‚'n man ‚'n put grawe, en dit nie toemaak nie, en ‚'n os of ‚'n esel daarin val;
34
The owner of the pit shall make [it] good, [and] give money unto the owner of them; and the dead [beast] shall be his.
Moet die eienaar van die put dit vergoed, en geld gee aan die eienaars daarvan; en die dooie dier moet syne wees.
35
And if one man’s ox hurt another’s, that he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money of it; and the dead [ox] also they shall divide.
En as ‚'n man se os die os van ‚'n ander seermaak, sodat hy sterwe; dan moet hulle die lewende os verkoop, en die geld daarvan verdeel; en die dooie ook moet hulle verdeel.
36
Or if it be known that the ox hath used to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.
Of as dit bekend was dat die os vantevore stootgeneigd was, en sy eienaar hom nie inhou nie; moet hy sekerlik os vir os betaal; en die dooie moet syne wees.
