1These are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
1Hae daan hae nihcae hmaa ah suem paeh;
2If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve thee: in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
2Hebru kami to tamna ah na qan nahaeloe, anih mah saning tarukto thung na tok to sah tih; toe saning sarihto naah loe, atho tidoeh hni ai ah loihsak han oh.
3With what raiment he came in, with the like let him go out: if having a wife, his wife also shall go out with him.
3Angmah bueng tamna ah om nahaeloe, angmah bueng loih han oh; to kami loe zu tawn nahaeloe, a zu hoi nawnto loih tih.
4But if his master gave him a wife, and she hath borne sons and daughters: the woman and her children shall be her master’s: but he himself shall go out with his raiment.
4Angmah ih angraeng mah anih han zu to lak pae moe, caa nongpa maw, to tih ai boeh loe canu maw sah nahaeloe, anih ih caanawk loe angmah angraeng ih hmuen ah om tih; a tamna loe angmah bueng ah loih tih.
5And if the servant shall say: I love my master and my wife and children, I will not go out free:
5Toe a tamna mah, Ka Angraeng, ka zu hoi ka caanawk to palung pongah, tacawt han koeh ai, tiah thui nahaeloe,
6His master shall bring him to the gods, and he shall be set to the door and the posts, and he shall bore his ear through with an awl: and he shall be his servant for ever.
6angmah ih angraeng mah anih to lokcaekkungnawk hmaa ah caeh haih tih; anih mah khongkha, to tih ai boeh loe khongkha tung ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh haih ueloe, angmah ih angraeng mah a tamna ih naa to moihin aqawthaih phungvang hoiah aqawt pae tih, to tiah anih loe a hing thung angraeng ih tamna ah om tih.
7If any man sell his daughter to be a servant, she shall not go out as bondwomen are wont to go out.
7Kami maeto mah a canu to tamna ah zaw nahaeloe, to nongpata to nongpa baktiah prawt sut han om ai.
8If she displease the eyes of her master to whom she was delivered, he shall let her go: but he shall have no power to sell her to a foreign nation, if he despise her.
8Anih qankung angraeng mah to nongpata to zu ah lak han koeh ai nahaeloe, angmah hoi angmah to angkrangsak ah; angraeng mah to nongpata to aling pongah, kalah prae kami khaeah zaw thai mak ai.
9But if he have betrothed her to his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
9To nongpata to a capa han paek nahaeloe, anih to a canu baktiah khet han oh.
10And if he take another wife for him, he shall provide her a marriage, and raiment, neither shall he refuse the price of her chastity.
10Anih mah kalah nongpata to zu ah la let nahaeloe, hmaloe ih a zu nongpata ih caaknaek maw, to tih ai boeh loe sava sak nathuem ih khukbuen maw, khring pae han om ai.
11If he do not these three things, she shall go out free without money.
11Hae hmuen thumto sah ai nahaeloe, tangka paek angaih ai ah, nongpata to loih han oh.
12He that striketh a man with a will to kill him, shall be put to death.
12Minawk hum kami loe, paduek han oh.
13But he that did not lie in wait for him, but God delivered him into his hands: I will appoint thee a place to which he must flee.
13Pacaenghaih om ai ah, anih ban ah Sithaw mah to kami to paek nahaeloe, anih cawnhaih ahmuen ka suek pae han.
14If a man kill his neighbour on set purpose and by lying in wait for him: thou shalt take him away from my altar, that he may die.
14Toe pacaenghaih hoiah a imtaeng kami to hum nahaeloe, ka hmaicam ah abuep cadoeh anih loe duek han oh.
15He that striketh his father or mother, shall be put to death.
15Amno hoi ampa hum kami loe, paduek han oh.
16He that shall steal a man, and sell him, being convicted of guilt, shall be put to death.
16Kami paqu kami loe, kami to zawh maw, to tih ai boeh loe angmah ban ah maw suem cadoeh, paduek han oh.
17He that curseth his father, or mother, shall die the death.
17Amno hoi ampa tangoeng kami loe paduek han oh.
18If men quarrel, and the one strike his neighbour with a stone or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed:
18Kami hnik loe angpan hoi moe, maeto mah kalah maeto thlung hoiah vah maw, to tih ai boeh loe ban pathluem moe a thong, toe to kami loe dueh ai, iihkhun nuiah angsong sut,
19If he rise again and walk abroad upon his staff, he that struck him shall be quit, yet so that he make restitution for his work, and for his expenses upon the physicians.
19toe to kami loe angthawk moe, cunghet hoiah lam caeh thaih nahaeloe, anih bop kami to loihsak han oh; toe to kami loe ahmaa ca nahaeloe, ngantui ai ah a oh nathung, patoh ih kaboeng hmuennawk boih to laem tih.
20He that striketh his bondman or bondwoman with a rod, and they die under his hands, shall be guilty of the crime.
20Kami maeto mah a tamna nongpa maw, nongpata maw boh pongah dueh nahaeloe, anih to danpaek han oh.
21But if the party remain alive a day or two, he shall not be subject to the punishment, because it is his money.
21Toe tamna to dueh ai moe, ni hnetto maw, ni thumto maw oh pacoengah angthawk let nahaeloe, a tamna loe anih ih phoisa ah oh pongah, bop kami to danpaek han om ai.
22If men quarrel, and one strike a woman with child, and she miscarry indeed, but live herself: he shall be answerable for so much damage as the woman’s husband shall require, and as arbiters shall award.
22Nongpa hnik loe angpan hoi naah, zokpomh nongpata to nganbawh kana paek hoi moeng pongah, nawkta to khrah akoep ai ah zun moeng nahaeloe, nongpata ih sava mah thuih ih baktih toengah, danpaek han oh; lokcaekkung mah thuih ih baktih toengah paek tih.
23But if her death ensue thereupon, he shall render life for life.
23Toe kalah ahmaa casak nahaeloe, hinghaih to hinghaih hoiah pathok han oh.
24Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
24Mik pongah mik, haa pongah haa, ban pongah ban, khok pongah khok,
25Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
25hmai hoi thlaek pongah hmai hoi thlaek, ahmaa caksak pongah ahmaa caksak, nganbawh kana paek pongah nganbawh kana paek han oh.
26If any man strike the eye of his manservant or maidservant, and leave them but one eye, he shall let them go free for the eye which he put out.
26Kami maeto mah a tamna nongpa maw, nongpata maw mik ah boh pongah, mik amro nahaeloe, mik amrosak kami to danpaekhaih thung hoi loihsak han oh.
27Also if he strike out a tooth of his manservant or maidservant, he shall in like manner make them free.
27Kami maeto mah a tamna nongpata maw, to tih ai boeh loe nongpa ih haa maw, angkhaeksak nahaeloe, haa angkhaehsak pongah tamna to loihsak han oh.
28If an ox gore a man or a woman, and they die, he shall be stoned: and his flesh shall not be eaten, but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
28Maitaw tae mah nongpa maw, nongpata maw takhueng moe, dueh nahaeloe, maitaw tae to thlung hoi vah maat han oh; to maitaw moi to caak han om ai; toe maitaw tawnkung loe loihsak han oh.
29But if the ox was wont to push with his horn yesterday and the day before, and they warned his master, and he did not shut him up, and he shall kill a man or a woman: then the ox shall be stoned, an his owner also shall be put to death.
29Toe to maitaw tae loe canghnii ah kami daeng vai boeh, tito maitaw tawnkung khaeah thuih pae boeh, toe tawnkung mah kahoih ah khenzawn ai pongah, nongpa maw, nongpata maw takhueng maat bae nahaeloe, maitaw tae to thlung hoi vah maat pacoengah, tawnkung doeh paduek han oh.
30And if they set a price upon him, he shall give for his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
30Toe phoisa rong nasoe, tiah thui o nahaeloe, thuih ih lok baktih toengah, a hinghaih to pahlong moe, atho rongsak han oh.
31If he have gored a son, or a daughter, he shall fall under the like sentence.

32If he assault a bondman or a bond woman, he shall give thirty sicles of silver to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.

33If a man open a pit, and dig one, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall into it,

34The owner of the pit shall pay the price of the beasts: and that which is dead shall be his own.
34tangqom toepkung mah maitaw hoi laa hrang ih atho to rong ueloe, kadueh maitaw to la tih.
35If one man’s ox gore another man’s ox, and he die: they shall sell the live ox, and shall divide the price, and the carcass of that which died they shall part between them:
35Kami maeto ih maitaw tae mah minawk kalah ih maitaw tae to daeng moe, dueh nahaeloe, kahing maitaw tae to zaw hoi ueloe, atho amzet hoi pacoengah, kadueh maitaw tae ih atho doeh kangvan ah amzet hoi tih.
36But if he knew that his ox was wont to push yesterday and the day before, and his master did not keep him in: he shall pay ox for ox, and shall take the whole carcass.
