1Y ESTOS son los derechos que les propondrás.
1Now these are the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.
2Si comprares siervo hebreo, seis años servirá; mas el séptimo saldrá horro de balde.
2If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve; and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
3Si entró solo, solo saldrá: si tenía mujer, saldrá él y su mujer con él.
3If he come in by himself, he shall go out by himself; if he be married, then his wife shall go out with him.
4Si su amo le hubiere dado mujer, y ella le hubiere parido hijos ó hijas, la mujer y sus hijos serán de su amo, y él saldrá solo.
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.
5Y si el siervo dijere: Yo amo á mi señor, á mi mujer y á mis hijos, no saldré libre:
5But if the servant shall plainly say: I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free;
6Entonces su amo lo hará llegar á los jueces, y harále llegar á la puerta ó al poste; y su amo le horadará la oreja con lesna, y será su siervo para siempre.
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.
7Y cuando alguno vendiere su hija por sierva, no saldrá como suelen salir los siervos.
7And if a man sell his daughter to be a maid-servant, she shall not go out as the men-servants do.
8Si no agradare á su señor, por lo cual no la tomó por esposa, permitirle ha que se rescate, y no la podrá vender á pueblo extraño cuando la desechare.
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.
9Mas si la hubiere desposado con su hijo, hará con ella según la costumbre de las hijas.
9And if he espouse her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
10Si le tomare otra, no disminuirá su alimento, ni su vestido, ni el débito conyugal.
10If he take him another wife, her food, her raiment, and her conjugal rights, shall he not diminish.
11Y si ninguna de estas tres cosas hiciere, ella saldrá de gracia sin dinero.
11And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out for nothing, without money.
12El que hiriere á alguno, haciéndole así morir, él morirá.
12He that smiteth a man, so that he dieth, shall surely be put to death.
13Mas el que no armó asechanzas, sino que Dios lo puso en sus manos, entonces yo te señalaré lugar al cual ha de huir.
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.
14Además, si alguno se ensoberbeciere contra su prójimo, y lo matare con alevosía, de mi altar lo quitarás para que muera.
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.
15Y el que hiriere á su padre ó á su madre, morirá.
15And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
16Asimismo el que robare una persona, y la vendiere, ó se hallare en sus manos, morirá.
16And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
17Igualmente el que maldijere á su padre ó á su madre, morirá.
17And he that curseth his father or his mother, shall surely be put to death.
18Además, si algunos riñeren, y alguno hiriere á su prójimo con piedra ó con el puño, y no muriere, pero cayere en cama;
18And if men contend, and one smite the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keep his bed;
19Si se levantare y anduviere fuera sobre su báculo, entonces será el que le hirió absuelto: solamente le satisfará lo que estuvo parado, y hará que le curen.
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.
20Y si alguno hiriere á su siervo ó á su sierva con palo, y muriere bajo de su mano, será castigado:
20And if a man smite his bondman, or his bondwoman, with a rod, and he die under his hand, he shall surely be punished.
21Mas si durare por un día ó dos, no será castigado, porque su dinero es.
21Notwithstanding if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his money.
22Si algunos riñeren, é hiriesen á mujer preñada, y ésta abortare, pero sin haber muerte, será penado conforme á lo que le impusiere el marido de la mujer y juzgaren los árbitros.
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.
23Mas si hubiere muerte, entonces pagarás vida por vida,
23But if any harm follow, then thou shalt give life for life,
24Ojo por ojo, diente por diente, mano por mano, pie por pie,
24eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
25Quemadura por quemadura, herida por herida, golpe por golpe.
25burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
26Y cuando alguno hiriere el ojo de su siervo, ó el ojo de su sierva, y lo entortare, darále libertad por razón de su ojo.
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.
27Y si sacare el diente de su siervo, ó el diente de su sierva, por su diente le dejará ir libre.
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.
28Si un buey acorneare hombre ó mujer, y de resultas muriere, el buey será apedreado, y no se comerá su carne; mas el dueño del buey será absuelto.
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.
29Pero si el buey era acorneador desde ayer y antes de ayer, y á su dueño le fué hecho requerimiento, y no lo hubiere guardado, y matare hombre ó mujer, el buey será apedreado, y también morirá su dueño.
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.
30Si le fuere impuesto rescate, entonces dará por el rescate de su persona cuanto le fuere impuesto.
30If there be laid on him a ransom, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatsoever is laid upon him.
31Haya acorneado hijo, ó haya acorneado hija, conforme á este juicio se hará con él.
31Whether it have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
32Si el buey acorneare siervo ó sierva, pagará treinta siclos de plata su señor, y el buey será apedreado.
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.
33Y si alguno abriere hoyo, ó cavare cisterna, y no la cubriere, y cayere allí buey ó asno,
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,
34El dueño de la cisterna pagará el dinero, resarciendo á su dueño, y lo que fué muerto será suyo.
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.
35Y si el buey de alguno hiriere al buey de su prójimo, y éste muriere, entonces venderán el buey vivo, y partirán el dinero de él, y también partirán el muerto.
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.
36Mas si era notorio que el buey era acorneador de ayer y antes de ayer, y su dueño no lo hubiere guardado, pagará buey por buey, y el muerto será suyo.
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.
