JUDGMENTS FOR SERVANTS
Now set these judgments at their face: 2 When you chattelize a Hebrew servant, he serves six years: and in the seventh he goes out gratuitously liberated. 3 If he comes in with his body, he goes out with his body: if he was master of a woman, then his woman goes out with him. 4 If his adoni gives him a woman and she births him sons or daughters; the woman and her children are to her adoni and he goes out with his body. 5 And if in saying, the servant says, I love my adoni, my woman and my sons; I go not out liberated: 6 then his adoni brings him to Elohim; he also brings him to the door or to the door post; and his adoni bores through his ear with an aul; and he serves him eternally. 7
JUDGMENTS FOR MAIDS
And when a man sells his daughter for a maid, she goes not out as the servants. 8 If she is evil in the eyes of her adoni, who betrothed her to himself, then he redeems her - sells her to a strange people; he has no reign: seeing he deals covertly with her. 9 And if he betroths her to his son, he deals with her after the judgment of daughters. 10 If he takes another to himself; her flesh, her covering and her cohabitation, he diminishes not: 11 and if he works not these three to her, then she goes out gratuitously without silver. 12
JUDGMENTS FOR INJURIES
He who smites a man, thus he dies: in deathifying, deathify him. 13 And if a man lurks not, but Elohim happens him into his hand; then I set you a place for him to flee. 14 And if a man seethes against his friend, to slaughter him with strategy, take him from my sacrifice altar to die. 15 And he who smites his father, or his mother, in deathifying, deathify him. 16 And he who steals a man and sells him, or if they find him in his hand, in deathifying, deathify him. 17 And he who abases his father, or his mother, in deathifying, deathify him. 18 And if men strive together and man smites friend with a stone or with his fist, and he die not, but falls on his bed: 19 if he rises and walks out on his crutch, then exonerate him who smote him: only he gives for his shabbathism and has him thoroughly healed. 20 And if a man smites his servant, or his maid, with a scion, and he dies under his hand, in avenging, avenge him. 21 Only, if he stays two days, he is not avenged: for he is his silver. 22 If men strive, and smite a woman that she conceives, so that her fruit departs from her and yet no mischief follows, in penalizing, penalize him, according as the master of the woman sets on him; and he gives according to the judges. 23 And if any mischief follows, then you give soul for soul, 24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 blister for blister, wound for wound, lash for lash. 26 And if a man smites the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it ruins; he sends him away liberated because of his eye. 27 And if he fells the tooth of his servant or the tooth of his maid, he sends him away liberated because of his tooth. 28 If an ox butt a man or a woman so that they die, then in stoning, stone the ox and eat not his flesh; but exonerate the master of the ox. 29 But if the ox butted with his horn three yesters ago and it was witnessed to his master and he guards him not, and deathifies a man or a woman, stone the ox and deathify his master also. 30 If a koper/an atonement is set on him, then he gives whatever is set on him to redeem his soul. 31 If he butts a son or butts a daughter, work to him according to this judgment. 32 If the ox butts a servant or a maid; he gives their adoni thirty shekels of silver and stones the ox. 33 And if a man opens a well, or if a man digs a well and covers not, and an ox or a he burro falls therein; 34 the master of the well shalams and returns silver to their master; and what died is his. 35 And if an ox of one man butts an ox of his friend so that he dies; then they sell the live ox and halve the silver; and they also halve what died. 36 Or if it be known that the ox butted three yesters ago and his master guarded him not; in shalaming, he shalams ox for ox; and that which died is his own.
