¹

And these are the ordinances which thou shalt set before them.

¹

И$ сїя ѓ^правда'нїа и^ сђды положи преD ни'ми,

²

If thou buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve thee, and in the seventh year he shall go forth free for nothing.

²

а%ще притя'жеши раb е^врњ'инъ, шесть лTњ да ти работа'етъ. а^ въ сеDмое лњто эTпђсти'ши е^го свобо'дъ тђне`”

³

If he should have come in alone, he shall also go forth alone; and if his wife should have gone in together with him, his wife also shall go out.

³

А/ще са'мъ е^ді'нъ вни'детъ т^о е^ді'нъ і^ и^зы'детъ, а%ще ли и^ жена` вни'детъ с нимъ, т^о и^ жена` эTи'детъ с нимъ”

⁴

Moreover, if his master give him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be his master's; and he shall go forth alone.

⁴

А/ще ли господиn дастъ е^мђ женђ`, и^ родитъ е^мђ сн~ъ и^л^и дще'рь, жена` и^ дњти да бђ'дђтъ господи'нђ е^го, а^ самъ е^ді'нъ. да эTи'детъ”

⁵

And if the servant should answer and say, I love my master and wife and children, I will not go away free;

⁵

А/ще ли эTвњщавъ рабъ речетъ, възлюбиX гдsна мое^го и^ женђ мою` и^ дњти мои`. не эTхождђ` свобо'денъ.

⁶

his master shall bring him to the judgment-seat of God, and then shall he bring him to the door,—to the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.

⁶

да приведеT и& господиn е^го преD сђди'ще бж~їе. тогда же приведеT е^го преD две'ри на стоя'ла, и^ да провръти'тъ е^мђ` ё^хо гдsнъ е^го ши'ломъ, и^ да работа'етъ е^мђ въ' вњки”

⁷

And if any one sell his daughter as a domestic, she shall not depart as the maid-servants depart.

⁷

А/ще кт^о прода'стъ свою дще'рь в рабыню, и^ да не эTи'детъ, ја%коже эTхо'дятъ рабыня.

⁸

If she be not pleasing to her master, after she has betrothed herself to him, he shall let her go free; but he is not at liberty to sell her to a foreign nation, because he has trifled with her.

⁸

а%ще же не ё^годи'тъ пред# ѓ^чи'ма господи'на свое^го ја%же е^мђ помы'сливъ ѓ^бњща, да эTпђ'стиT ю&. ја%зы'кђ же чюже'мђ гдsнъ да не прода'стъ ея`, понеже погордњ ею`”

⁹

And if he should have betrothed her to his son, he shall do to her according to the right of daughters.

⁹

А/ще лиy сн~ђ свое^мђ ѓ^бещалъ ея`, по ѓ^правле'нїю дще'рню да сътвори'тъ е'й.

¹⁰

And if he take another to himself, he shall not deprive her of necessaries and her apparel, and her companionship with him.

¹⁰

а%ще ли и'нђ по'иметъ себњ, и^ потре'бныа и^ ри'зы и^ вњ'но ея` да'стъ е'й. не ё^меншитъ,

¹¹

And if he will not do these three things to her, she shall go out free without money.

¹¹

а%ще ли сего` трое^го не твори'тъ е'й,да эTи'детъ бес цњны` тђне`”

¹²

And if any man smite another and he die, let him be certainly put to death.

¹²

И$ а'ще кого кт^о ё^да'ритъ и^ ё^мретъ, смр~тїю да ё^мреT и^ то'й”

¹³

But as for him that did it not willingly, but God delivered him into his hands, I will give thee a place whither the slayer may flee.

¹³

А/ще ли не хотя`, н^о б~ъ бђ'детъ предалъ въ рђцњ е^го, то да'мъ т^и мњсто, в неже бњжи'тъ тамо ё^би'выи”

¹⁴

And if any one lie in wait for his neighbour to slay him by craft, and he go for refuge, thou shalt take him from my altar to put him to death.

¹⁴

А/ще ли кт^о приложи'тъ ё^би'ти бли'жнего свое^го ѓ^та'и, прибњгнетъ къ ѓ^лта'рю, и^ эT ѓ^лта'ря мое^го възмется ё^мрњти”

¹⁵

Whoever smites his father or his mother, let him be certainly put to death.

¹⁵

И$же биеT эTц~а свое^го, и^л^и мт~рь, смр~тїю да ё'мретъ,

¹⁶

He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.

¹⁶

иже а%ще кт^о злорњ'читъ эTц~ђ и^л^и мтр~и смр~тїю да ё^мреT”

¹⁷

Whosoever shall steal one of the children of Israel, and prevail over him and sell him, and he be found with him, let him certainly die.

¹⁷

И$ аще кт^о ё^ кого` ё^кра'детъ сн~овъ і^и~левъ, и^ съѓ^долњвъ семђ` прода'сть и&, и^ ја^ви'тся нань, смр~тїю да сконча'ется”

¹⁸

And if two men revile each other and smite the one the other with a stone or his fist, and he die not, but be laid upon his bed;

¹⁸

А/ще же свари'тася дв^а мђжа. и^ ё^да'ритъ е^ді'нъ дрђга'го ка'менемъ, и^ли пя'стїю, и^ не ё^мретъ, н^о сей ля'жетъ на ѓ%дрњ,

¹⁹

if the man arise and walk abroad on his staff, he that smote him shall be clear; only he shall pay for his loss of time, and for his healing.

¹⁹

а%ще же въста'въ мђжь. и^ похо'дит# ѓ^ жезлњ, чистъ е^го ё^да'ривыи, то'чїю на дњ'ланїе е^го да да'стъ и^ на цњлбђ”

²⁰

And if a man smite his man-servant or his maid-servant, with a rod, and the party die under his hands, he shall be surely punished.

²⁰

А@ще же кт^о би'етъ раба` свое^го, и^л^и рабђ` свою жезло'мъ, и^ ё'мретъ эT рђки е^го, сђдо'мъ да ся м#ститъ ё^би'ти.

²¹

But if the servant continue to live a day or two, let not the master be punished; for he is his money.

²¹

а%ще ли пребђдеT дн~ь и^ли дв^а, да не м#сти'тся е^мђ, сребро б^о е^го е^мђ е^сть”

²²

And if two men strive and smite a woman with child, and her child be born imperfectly formed, he shall be forced to pay a penalty: as the woman's husband may lay upon him, he shall pay with a valuation.

²²

А/ще ся би'юще дв^а мђжи, и^ ё^рази'та женђ непра'знDђ, и^зы'детъ младе'неw ея^ не ѓ^бли'ченъ желњдбою да жьлњдетъ, ја%коже заде'жеT мђжъ жены' с подобо'ю да эTда'сть цњнђ

²³

But if it be perfectly formed, he shall give life for life,

²³

а%ще ли ѓ^бли'ченъ бђ'детъ, да да'стъ дш~ђ за' дш~ђ”

²⁴

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

²⁴

ѓко въ ѓ^чесњ мњсто. рђкђ въ рђ'кђ мњсто, зђбъ въ зђ'ба мњсто. нога` въ ноги`

²⁵

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

²⁵

мњсто. иZженїе въ иZженїа мњсто. вреD вреда мњсто, ја%звђ въ ја^звђ мњсто”

²⁶

And if one smite the eye of his man-servant, or the eye of his maid-servant, and put it out, he shall let them go free for their eye's sake.

²⁶

А/ще ли кт^о и^стъкнеT ѓ'ко рабђ свое^мђ, и^ли ѓ^ко рабы'ни своей, и^ ѓ^слњпи'тъ. свободъ да эTпђститъ я& въ ѓ^ка мњсто иX”

²⁷

And if he should smite out the tooth of his man-servant, or the tooth of his maid-servant, he shall send them away free for their tooth's sake.

²⁷

А/ще зђбъ рабђ свое^мђ, и^л^и зђбъ рабњ свое'й, и^зби'ет#, свобоD да эTпђстиT я& въ зђ'ба мњсто и^хъ”

²⁸

And if a bull gore a man or woman and they die, the bull shall be stoned with stones, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall be clear.

²⁸

А/ще во'лъ ё^боде'тъ мђжа, и^л^и женђ, и^ ё^мретъ, ка'менїемъ да ся поби'етъ во'лъ то'й, и^ да не ја%дяT мя'са е^го. а^ господиn вола` чи'стъ бђ'детъ”

²⁹

But if the bull should have been given to goring in former time, and men should have told his owner, and he have not removed him, but he should have slain a man or woman, the bull shall be stoned, and his owner shall die also.

²⁹

А/щеy во'лъ бодли'въ бђ'детъ пр'ъвње вчера'шнего и^ третїя'го дн~е, и^ гл~ютъ гдsнђ е^го, и^ не и^згђ'битъ е^го, и^ ё^бодетъ мђжа и^л^и женђ` во'лъ да ся погђби'тъ. а^ гдsнъ е^го, да ё^мреT”

³⁰

And if a ransom should be imposed on him, he shall pay for the ransom of his soul as much as they shall lay upon him.

³⁰

А/ще ли винђ` заде'жђтъ е^мђ, да да'стъ винђ` за дш~ђ свою, е^лико заде'жђтъ е^мђ”

³¹

And if the bull gore a son or daughter, let them do to him according to this ordinance.

³¹

И$ а'ще сн~а и^л^и дще'рь ё^боде'тъ, то по семђже ѓ^пра'вленїю да сътворя'тъ е^мђ”

³²

And if the bull gore a man-servant or maid-servant, he shall pay to their master thirty silver didrachms, and the bull shall be stoned.

³²

А/ще ли раба`, и^л^и рабђ`, ё^бодетъ во'лъ, сребра`, л~ дидра'гмь, да да'стъ гдsнђ и^хъ, а^ во'лъ ка'менїемъ да ся побі'етъ”

³³

And if any one open a pit or dig a cavity in stone, and cover it not, and an ox or an ass fall in there,

³³

А/ще кт^о эTвр'ьзетъ кла'дязь, и^л^и и^скопа'етъ я%мђ, и^ не покры'етъ ея` и^ впаде'тся в ню теля, и^л^и ѓ^сля`,

³⁴

the owner of the pit shall make compensation; he shall give money to their owner, and the dead shall be his own.

³⁶

But if the bull be known to have been given to goring in time past, and they have testified to his owner, and he have not removed him, he shall repay bull for bull, but the dead shall be his own.

³⁶

А/ще же зна'ютъ вола` ја^ко бодли'въ еs прежде вчера'шнего, и^ третїа'го дн~е и^ сђть гл~али гдsнђ е^го, и то'й не брежеT и& и^л^и не ё^бїетъ е^го, да да'стъ во'лъ въ вола мњсто, мр~твыи же е^мђ да бђ'деть”
