Exodus 21

Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.

Tito jsou pak soudové, kteréž jim předložíš:

If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.

Jestliže koupíš k službě Žida, šest let sloužiti bude, a sedmého odejde svobodný darmo.

If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.

Přišel-li by sám toliko, sám také odejde; pakli měl ženu, vyjde s ním i žena jeho.

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.

Jestliže pán jeho dá mu ženu, a ona zrodí jemu syny neb dcery: žena ta i děti její budou pána jeho, on pak sám toliko odejde.

And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:

Pakli by řekl služebník: Miluji pána svého, manželku svou a syny své, nevyjdu svobodný:

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.

Tedy postaví ho pán jeho před soudci, a přivede ho ke dveřím neb k veřeji,a probodne pán jeho ucho jemu špicí; i zůstaneť služebníkem jeho na věky.

And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.

Když by pak prodal někdo dceru svou, aby byla děvkou, nevyjdeť tak, jako vycházejí služebníci.

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.

Nelíbila-li by se pánu svému, kterýž jí sobě ještě nezasnoubil, dopustí ji vyplatiti. Lidu cizímu nebude míti práva prodati ji, poněvadž zhřešil proti ní.

And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.

Pakli by synu svému ji zasnoubil, učiníť jí tak, jakž obyčej jest činiti dcerám.

If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.

A dal-li by mu jinou, z stravy její, oděvu jejího, a přívětivosti manželské nic této neujme.

And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.

Neudělal-li by nic z toho trojího, vyjde darmo bez stříbra.

He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.

Kdo by ubil člověka, až by od toho umřel, smrtí umře.

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.

Když by pak neukládal o bezživotí jeho, než Bůh dal by jej v ruce jeho: tedy uložím tobě místo, do něhož by takový mohl uteci.

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.

Pakli by kdo tak pyšně sobě počínal proti bližnímu svému, že by ho lstivě zabil, i od oltáře mého odtrhneš jej, aby umřel.

And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.

Kdo by otce svého neb matku svou bil, smrtí ať umře.

And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

Kdo by pak, ukradna někoho, prodal jej, a nalezen by byl v ruce jeho, smrtí ať umře.

And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.

I ten, kdož by zlořečil otci svému neb mateři své, smrtí ať umře.

And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:

Když by se svadili muži, a urazil by který bližního svého kamenem neb pěstí, a ten by neumřel, než složil se na lůži;

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.

A potom by povstal a chodil vně o holi své: již nebude vinen ten, kdož urazil; toliko co zatím obmeškal, to jemu nahradí, a na vyhojení jeho naloží.

And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.

Když by pak ubil kdo služebníka svého neb děvku svou kyjem, tak že by umřel mu v ruce jeho: pomstou pomštěno bude nad takovým.

Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.

A však jestliže by den neb dva přečkal, neponese pomsty, nebo jej zaplatil.

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.

Když by se svadili muži, a urazili ženu těhotnou, tak že by vyšel z ní plod její, však by se zhouba nestala: pokutován bude, jakž by uložil naň muž té ženy, a dá vedlé uznání soudců.

And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,

Pakliť by smrt přišla, tedy dáš život za život,

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

Oko za oko, zub za zub, ruku za ruku, nohu za nohu,

Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.

Spáleninu za spáleninu, ránu za ránu, modřinu za modřinu.

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.

Jestliže by kdo urazil služebníka svého v oko, aneb děvku svou v oko, tak že by jej o ně připravil: svobodného jej propustí za oko jeho.

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.

Pakli by zub služebníku svému neb zub děvce své vyrazil, svobodného jej propustí za zub jeho.

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.

Jestliže by vůl utrkl muže neb ženu, tak že by umřel člověk: ukamenován bude ten vůl, aniž jedeno bude maso jeho, však pán vola toho bez viny bude.

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.

Než byl-liť by vůl trkavý prvé, a bylo by to osvědčeno pánu jeho, on pak nezavřel by ho, a v tom zabil by muže neb ženu: vůl ten ukamenován bude, a pán jeho také umře.

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.

Pakliť mu bude uloženo, aby se vyplatil: tedy dá výplatu za život svůj, jakážkoli na něj uložena bude.

Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.

Buď že by syna utrkl, buď dceru, podlé soudu toho stane se jemu.

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.

Jestliže by služebníka vůl ztrkal neb děvku, třidceti lotů stříbra dá pánu jeho, a vůl ten bude ukamenován.

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;

Kdyby kdo odhradil studnici, a neb vykopal někdo studnici, a zase jí nepřikryl, a vpadl by tam vůl neb osel:

The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his.

Pán té studnice nahradí to, a peníze položí pánu jeho, a což se zabilo, to sobě míti bude.

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.

A ustrčil-li by vůl něčí vola sousedova, že byl umřel: tedy prodadí vola toho živého, a podělí se penězi jeho; i s zabitým volem také se rozdělí.

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.

Pakli vědíno bylo, že vůl byl trkavý prvé, a nezavřel ho pán jeho: bez výmluvy ať dá vola za vola, a zabitý ať mu zůstane.
