Exodus 21
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Now these are the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.
1「你在百姓面前所要立的典章是这样：
2If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve; and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
2你若买 希伯来 人作奴仆，他必服事你六年；第七年他可以自由，白白地出去。
3If he come in by himself, he shall go out by himself; if he be married, then his wife shall go out with him.
3他若孤身来就可以孤身去；他若有妻，他的妻就可以同他出去。
4If his master give him a wife, and she bear him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
4他主人若给他妻子，妻子给他生了儿子或女儿，妻子和儿女要归主人，他要独自出去。
5But if the servant shall plainly say: I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free;
5倘或奴仆明说：『我爱我的主人和我的妻子儿女，不愿意自由出去。』
6then his master shall bring him unto God, and shall bring him to the door, or unto the door-post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.
6他的主人就要带他到审判官那里，又要带他到门前，靠近门框，用锥子穿他的耳朵，他就永远服事主人。
7And if a man sell his daughter to be a maid-servant, she shall not go out as the men-servants do.
7「人若卖女儿作婢女，婢女不可像男仆那样出去。
8If she please not her master, who hath espoused her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed; to sell her unto a foreign people he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
8主人选定她归自己，若不喜欢她，就要许她赎身；主人既然用诡诈待她，就没有权柄卖给外邦人。
9And if he espouse her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
9主人若选定她给自己的儿子，就当待她如同女儿。
10If he take him another wife, her food, her raiment, and her conjugal rights, shall he not diminish.
10若另娶一个，那女子的吃食、衣服，并好合的事，仍不可减少。
11And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out for nothing, without money.
11若不向她行这三样，她就可以不用钱赎，白白地出去。」
12He that smiteth a man, so that he dieth, shall surely be put to death.
12「打人以致打死的，必要把他治死。
13And if a man lie not in wait, but God cause it to come to hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he may flee.
13人若不是埋伏着 杀人 ，乃是 神交在他手中，我就设下一个地方，他可以往那里逃跑。
14And if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from Mine altar, that he may die.
14人若任意用诡计杀了他的邻舍，就是逃到我的坛那里，也当捉去把他治死。
15And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
15「打父母的，必要把他治死。
16And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
16「拐带人口，或是把人卖了，或是留在他手下，必要把他治死。
17And he that curseth his father or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
17「咒骂父母的，必要把他治死。
18And if men contend, and one smite the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keep his bed;
18「人若彼此相争，这个用石头或是拳头打那个，尚且不至于死，不过躺卧在床，
19if 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.
19若再能起来扶杖而出，那打他的可算无罪；但要将他耽误的工夫用钱赔补，并要将他全然医好。
20And if a man smite his bondman, or his bondwoman, with a rod, and he die under his hand, he shall surely be punished.
20「人若用棍子打奴仆或婢女，立时死在他的手下，他必要受刑。
21Notwithstanding if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his money.
21若过一两天才死，就可以不受刑，因为是用钱买的。
22And if men strive together, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart, and yet no harm follow, he shall be surely fined, according as the woman's husband shall lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
22「人若彼此争斗，伤害有孕的妇人，甚至坠胎，随后却无别害，那伤害她的，总要按妇人的丈夫所要的，照审判官所断的，受罚。
23But if any harm follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
23若有别害，就要以命偿命，
24eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
24以眼还眼，以牙还牙，以手还手，以脚还脚，
25burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
25以烙还烙，以伤还伤，以打还打。
26And if a man smite the eye of his bondman, or the eye of his bondwoman, and destroy it, he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.
26「人若打坏了他奴仆或是婢女的一只眼，就要因他的眼放他去得以自由。
27And if he smite out his bondman's tooth, or his bondwoman's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.
27若打掉了他奴仆或是婢女的一个牙，就要因他的牙放他去得以自由。」
28And if an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die, the ox shall be surely stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
28「牛若触死男人或是女人，总要用石头打死那牛，却不可吃它的肉；牛的主人可算无罪。
29But if the ox was wont to gore in time past, and warning hath been given to its owner, and he hath not kept it in, but it hath killed a man or a woman; the ox shall be stoned, and its owner also shall be put to death.
29倘若那牛素来是触人的，有人报告了牛主，他竟不把牛拴着，以致把男人或是女人触死，就要用石头打死那牛，牛主也必治死。
30If there be laid on him a ransom, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
30若罚他赎 命 的价银，他必照所罚的赎他的命。
31Whether it have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
31牛无论触了人的儿子或是女儿，必照这例办理。
32If the ox gore a bondman or a bondwoman, he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
32牛若触了奴仆或是婢女，必将银子三十舍客勒给他们的主人，也要用石头把牛打死。
33And 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,
33「人若敞着井口，或挖井不遮盖，有牛或驴掉在里头，
34the owner of the pit shall make it good; he shall give money unto the owner of them, and the dead beast shall be his.
34井主要拿钱赔还本主人，死牲畜要归自己。
35And if one man's ox hurt another's, so that it dieth; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the price of it; and the dead also they shall divide.
35「这人的牛若伤了那人的牛，以至于死，他们要卖了活牛，平分价值，也要平分死牛。
36Or if it be known that the ox was wont to gore in time past, and its owner hath not kept it in; he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead beast shall be his own.
36人若知道这牛素来是触人的，主人竟不把牛拴着，他必要以牛还牛，死牛要归自己。」
