| 1 ܘܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ̈ܐ ܕܬܣܝܡ ܩܕܡܝܗܘܢ. | 1 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them. |
| 2 ܟܕ ܬܙܒܢ ܥܒ̣ܕܐ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ. ܫܬ ܫ̈ܢܝܢ ܢܦܠܚܟ. ܘܒܕܫܒܥ ܢܦܘܩ ܒܪ ܚܐܪ̈ܐ ܡܢ ܠܘܬܟ . | 2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. |
| 3 ܘܐܢ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ ܢܥܘܠ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ ܢܦܘܩ. ܘܐܢ ܒܥܠ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܘ . ܬܦܘܩ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܥܡܗ. | 3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him. |
| 4 ܘܐܢ ܡܪܗ ܢܬܠ ܠܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ. ܘܬܐܠܕ ܠܗ ܒܢ̈ܝܐ ܘܒܢ̈ܬܐ . ܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܒܢ̈ܝܗ̇ ܬܗܘܐ ܕܡܪܗ. ܘܗ̣ܘ ܢܦܘܩ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ. | 4 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. |
| 5 ܘܐܢ ܢܐܡܪ ܥܒ̣ܕܐ ܕܪܚܡ ܐܢܐ ܠܡܪܝ. ܘܠܐܢܬܬܝ ܘܠܒ̈ܢܝ. ܠܐ ܢܦܩ̇ ܐܢܐ ܒܪ ܚܐܪ̈ܐ. | 5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: |
| 6 ܢܩܪܒܝܘܗܝ ܡܪܗ ܠܘܬ ܕܝܢ̈ܐ. ܘܢܩܪܒܝܘܗܝ ܠܘܬ ܬܪܥܐ ܐܘ ܠܘܬ ܐܣܟܘܦܬܐ. ܘܢܩܘܒ ܡܪܗ ܐܕܢܗ ܒܡܩܒܐ. ܘܢܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܥܒ̣ܕ ܦܠܚ ܠܥܠܡ. | 6 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. |
| 7 ܘܟܕ ܢܙܒ̇ܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܒܪܬܗ ܠܐܡܬܐ. ܠܐ ܬܦܘܩ ܐܝܟ ܕܢܦܩܝܢ ܥܒ̣̈ܕܐ. | 7 And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do. |
| 8 ܐܢ ܣܢܝܐ ܗܝ ܒܥܝܢ̈ܝ ܡܪܗ̇. ܕܠܐ ܢܣܒܝܗ̇ ܢܦ̣ܪܩܝܗ̇. ܠܥܡ ܢܘܟܪܝ ܠܐ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܗ ܠܡܙܒܢܘܬܗ̇. ܡܛܠ ܕܕܓ̇ܠ ܒܗ̇. | 8 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. |
| 9 ܘܐܢ ܠܒܪܗ ܢܣܒܝܗ̇. ܐܝܟ ܢܡܘܣܐ ܕܡܬܥܒܕ ܠܒܢ̈ܬܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܠܗ̇. | 9 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters. |
| 10 ܘܐܢ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܢܣ̣̇ܒ ܠܗ. ܬܘܪܣܝܗ̇ ܘܠܒܘܫܗ̇ ܘܡܫܟܒܗ̇ ܠܐ ܢܒ̇ܨܪ. | 10 If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish. |
| 11 ܘܐܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܠܬ ܠܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܠܗ̇. ܬܦܘܩ ܡܓܢ ܕܠܐ ܟܣܦ. | 11 And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money. |
| 12 ܕܢܡܚ̣ܐ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܘܢܡܘܬ ܡܬܩܛܠܘ ܢܬܩܛܠ. | 12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death. |
| 13 ܘܕܠܐ ܟܡܢ ܠܗ ܘܐܠܗܐ ܐܫܠܡܗ ܒܐܝܕܗ. ܥܒ̣ܕ ܠܟ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܢܥܪܘܩ ܠܬܡܢ. | 13 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. |
| 14 ܘܐܢ ܢܡܪܚ ܓܒܪܐ ܥܠ ܚܒܪܗ. ܘܢܩܛܠܝܘܗܝ ܒܢܟܠܐ. ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܡܕܒܚܝ ܕܒܪܝܗܝ ܠܡܩܛܠܗ. | 14 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. |
| 15 ܕܢܡܚܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܡܬܩܛܠܘ ܢܬܩܛܠ. | 15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death. |
| 16 ܕܢܓܢܘܒ ܢܦܫܐ ܘܢܙܒܢܝܗ̇ ܘܬܫܬܟܚ ܒܐܝܕܗ ܡܬܩܛܠܘ ܢܬܩܛܠ. | 16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death. |
| 17 ܕܢܨ̇ܚܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ̣ ܡܬܩ̣ܛܠܘ ܢܬܩ̣ܛܠ . | 17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death. |
| 18 ܘܟܕ ܢܨܘܢ ܬܪ̈ܝܢ ܓܒܪ̈ܝܢ. ܘܢܡ̣ܚܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܚܒܪܗ ܒܟܐܦܐ ܐܘ ܒܩܛܝܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܡܘܬ. ܘܢܦ̣ܠ ܠܡܪܥܐ. | 18 And if men strive together, and one smite another with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth his bed: |
| 19 ܐܢ ܢܩܘܡ ܘܢܗܠܟ ܒܫܘܩܐ ܥܠ ܚܘܛܪܗ. ܢܙܟ̣ܐ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܡܚܝܗܝ. ܒܠܚܘܕ ܒܛܠܢܗ ܘܐܓܪ ܐܣܝܐ ܢܬܠ. | 19 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. |
| 20 ܘܟܕ ܢܡܚܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܥ̣ܒܕܗ ܐܘ ܠܐܡܬܗ ܒܚܘܛܪܐ ܘܢܡܘܬ ܬܚܝܬ ܐܝܕܗ. ܡܬܕܢܘ ܢܬܕܝܢ. | 20 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished. |
| 21 ܒܪܡ ܕܝܢ ܐܢ ܚܕ ܝܘܡ ܐܘ ܬܪ̈ܝܢ ܝܘܡ̈ܝܢ ܢܚܐ ܠܐ ܢܬܕܝܢ. ܡܛܠ ܕܟܣܦܗ ܗܘ. | 21 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money. |
| 22 ܘܟܕ ܢܨܘܢ ܬܪ̈ܝܢ ܓܒܪ̈ܝܢ. ܘܢܡܚܘܢ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܒܛܢܐ. ܘܢܦܩܘܢ ܥܘܠܗ̇ . ܘܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܩܐܪܣܐ. ܡܬܚܣܪܘ ܢܬܚܣܪ . ܐܝܟ ܕܪܡ̇ܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܒܥܠܗ̇ ܕܐܢܬܬܐ. ܘܢܬܠ ܐܝܟ ܕܦܣܩܝܢ ܕܝܢ̈ܐ. | 22 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. |
| 23 ܘܐܢ ܩܐܪܣܐ ܗܘ. ܢܬܠ ܢܦܫܐ ܚܠܦ ܢܦܫܐ. | 23 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life, |
| 24 ܥܝܢܐ ܚܠܦ ܥܝܢܐ. ܫܢܐ ܚܠܦ ܫܢܐ. ܐܝܕܐ ܚܠܦ ܐܝܕܐ. ܪܓܠܐ ܚܠܦ ܪܓܠܐ. | 24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, |
| 25 ܟ̇ܘܝܐ ܚܠܦ ܟܘܝܐ. ܨܘܠܦܬܐ ܚܠܦ ܨܘܠܦܬܐ. ܦܟܐ ܚܠܦ ܦܟܐ. | 25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. |
| 26 ܘܟܕ ܢܡܚ̣ܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܥܝܢܐ ܕܥܒܕܗ ܐܘ ܠܥܝܢܐ ܕܐܡܬܗ ܘܢܣܪܚܝܗ̇. ܒܪ ܚܐܪ̈ܐ ܢܫܒܩܝܘܗܝ ܚܠܦ ܥܝܢܗ. | 26 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. |
| 27 ܘܐܢ ܫܢܐ ܕܥܒܕܗ ܐܘ ܫܢܐ ܕܐܡܬܗ ܢܪܡܐ. ܒܪ ܚܐܪ̈ܐ ܢܫܒܩܝܘܗܝ ܚܠܦ ܫܢܗ. | 27 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. |
| 28 ܘܟܕ ܢܕܩܘܪ ܬܘܪܐ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܢܡܘܬ. ܡܬܪܓܡܘ ܢܬܪܓܡ ܬܘܪܐ. ܘܠܐ ܢܬܐܟܠ ܒܣܪܗ. ܘܡܪܗ ܕܬܘܪܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܙܟܝ. | 28 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. |
| 29 ܘܐܢ ܬܘܪܐ ܥܓܘܫܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܐܬܡܠܝ ܘܡܢ ܕܩܕܡܘܗܝ. ܘܐܣܗܕܘ ܒܡܪܗ ܘܠܐ ܢܛܪܗ. ܘܢܩܛܘܠ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ. ܬܘܪܐ ܢܬܪܓܡ ܘܐܦ ܡܪܗ ܢܬܩܛܠ. | 29 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. |
| 30 ܘܐܢ ܡܡܘܢܐ ܢܪܡܘܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ. ܢܬܠ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܕܢܦܫܗ ܟܡܐ ܕܫܐܠܝܢ ܠܗ. | 30 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. |
| 31 ܘܐܢ ܠܒܪܐ ܐܘ ܠܒܪܬܐ ܢܕܩܘܪ ܬܘܪܐ . ܐܝܟ ܕܝܢ̣ܐ ܗܢܐ ܢܬܥܒܕ ܠܗ. | 31 Whether he have gored a son, or have gored a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him. |
| 32 ܘܐܢ ܠܥܒ̣ܕܐ ܐܘ ܠܐܡܬܐ ܢܕܩܘܪ ܬܘܪܐ. ܬܠܬܝܢ ܐܣܬܝܪ̈ܝܢ ܕܟܣܦܐ ܢܬܠ ܠܡܪܗ. ܘܬܘܪܐ ܢܬܪܓܡ. | 32 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. |
| 33 ܘܟܕ ܢܦܬܚ ܓܒܪܐ ܓܘܒܐ. ܐܘ ܢܚܦܘܪ ܓܒܪܐ ܒܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܟܣ̇ܐ ܐܢܘܢ. ܘܢ̇ܦ̣ܠ ܬܡ̇ܢ ܬܘܪܐ ܐܘ ܚܡܪܐ. | 33 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; |
| 34 ܡܪܗ ܕܓܘܒܐ ܢܦܪܘܥ ܟܣܦܐ ܠܡܪ̈ܘܗܝ. ܘܡܝܬܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܕܝܠܗ. | 34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall be his. |
| 35 ܘܟܕ ܢܕܩܘܪ ܬܘܪܐ ܕܓܒܪܐ ܠܬܘܪܐ ܕܓܒܪܐ ܚܒܪܗ ܘܢܡܘܬ̣ ܢܙܒܢܘܢ ܠܬܘܪܐ ܚܝ̇ܐ ܘܢܦܠܓܘܢ ܟܣܦܗ. ܘܐܦ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܢܦ̇ܠܓܘܢ. | 35 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. |
| 36 ܘܐܢ ܢܬܝܕܥ ܕܬܘܪܐ ܥܓܘܫܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܐܬܡܠܝ ܘܡܢ ܡܢܬܡܠܝ. ܘܠܐ ܢܛܪܗ ܡܪܗ. ܢܬܠ ܬܘܪܐ ܚܠܦ ܬܘܪܐ. ܘܡܝܬܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܕܝܠܗ. | 36 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. |
| 37 ܘܟܕ ܢܓܢܘܒ ܓܒܪܐ ܬܘܪܐ. ܐܘ ܢܩܝܐ ܘܢܟܘܣ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܘ ܢܙܒ̇ܢ ܐܢܘܢ. ܚܡܫܐ ܬܘܪ̈ܝܢ ܢܬܠ ܚܠܦ ܬܘܪܐ. ܘܐܪ̈ܒܥ ܢܩ̈ܘܢ ܢܬܠ ܚܠܦ ܢܩܝܐ. | |
