maastamuutto 21

Studie

   

1 "Nämä ovat ne oikeudet, jotka sinun tulee asettaa heidän eteensä:

2 Jos sinä ostat hebrealaisen orjan, niin hän palvelkoon kuusi vuotta, mutta seitsemäntenä hän pääsköön vapaaksi maksutta.

3 Jos hän on tullut yksinäisenä, niin yksinäisenä lähteköönkin; mutta jos hän oli nainut, niin lähteköön vaimo hänen kanssaan.

4 Jos hänen isäntänsä on antanut hänelle vaimon, ja tämä on synnyttänyt hänelle poikia tai tyttäriä, niin vaimo lapsinensa jääköön isännän omaksi, ja hän lähteköön yksinään.

5 Mutta jos orja vakuuttaa: 'Minä rakastan isäntääni, vaimoani ja lapsiani enkä tahdo päästä vapaaksi',

6 niin hänen isäntänsä vieköön hänet Jumalan eteen ja asettakoon hänet ovea tai pihtipieltä vasten, ja hänen isäntänsä lävistäköön hänen korvansa naskalilla, ja hän olkoon hänen orjansa ainiaan.

7 Jos joku myy tyttärensä orjaksi, älköön tämä pääskö vapaaksi, niinkuin miesorjat pääsevät.

8 Jos hän ei miellytä isäntäänsä, sitten kuin tämä jo on määrännyt hänet itsellensä, niin tämä sallikoon lunastaa hänet pois. Vieraaseen kansaan älköön hänellä olko valtaa häntä myydä, kun hän hänet hylkää.

9 Mutta jos hän määrää hänet pojallensa, niin antakoon hänen nauttia tyttärien oikeutta.

10 Jos hän ottaa itselleen toisen vaimon, niin älköön vähentäkö ensimmäiseltä tämän ravintoa, vaatetusta ja aviollista oikeutta.

11 Jos hän ei tee hänelle näitä kolmea, niin lähteköön vaimo pois maksutta ja rahakorvauksetta.

12 Joka lyö ihmistä, niin että tämä kuolee, se rangaistakoon kuolemalla.

13 Mutta jos hän ei ole tehnyt sitä murha-aikeessa, vaan Jumala on sallinut sen vahingon tapahtua hänen kätensä kautta, niin minä määrään sinulle paikan, johon hän voi paeta.

14 Mutta jos joku menettelee niin rikollisesti lähimmäistänsä kohtaan, että tappaa hänet kavalasti, on sinun otettava hänet minun alttarinikin luota surmattavaksi.

15 Joka lyö isäänsä tai äitiänsä, se rangaistakoon kuolemalla.

16 Joka varastaa ihmisen ja joko myy hänet tahi pitää häntä hallussansa, se rangaistakoon kuolemalla.

17 Joka kiroaa isäänsä tai äitiänsä, se rangaistakoon kuolemalla.

18 Jos miehet riitelevät keskenänsä ja toinen lyö toista kivellä tai nyrkillä, mutta tämä ei kuole, vaan joutuu vuoteen omaksi,

19 niin olkoon, jos hän tointuu ja voi mennä ulos sauvaansa nojaten, lyöjä vapaa rangaistuksesta; korvatkoon ainoastaan hänen sairastamisaikansa ja pitäköön huolta hänen paranemisestaan.

20 Jos joku lyö orjaansa tai orjatartaan sauvalla, niin että tämä kuolee hänen käsiinsä, niin häntä rangaistakoon.

21 Mutta jos se elää päivän tai kaksi, niin älköön lyöjää rangaistako, sillä se on hänen omaa rahaansa.

22 Jos miehet tappelevat keskenänsä ja loukkaavat raskasta vaimoa, niin että hän synnyttää kesken, mutta vahinkoa ei tapahdu, niin sakotettakoon syyllistä vaimon miehen vaatimuksen ja riidanratkaisijain harkinnan mukaan.

23 Mutta jos vahinko tapahtuu, niin annettakoon henki hengestä,

24 silmä silmästä, hammas hampaasta, käsi kädestä, jalka jalasta,

25 palovamma palovammasta, haava haavasta, mustelma mustelmasta.

26 Jos joku lyö orjaansa tai orjatartansa silmään ja turmelee sen, niin päästäköön hänet vapaaksi silmän tähden.

27 Ja jos hän lyö orjaltaan tai orjattareltaan hampaan suusta, niin päästäköön hänet vapaaksi hampaan tähden.

28 Jos härkä puskee miehen tai naisen kuoliaaksi, niin härkä kivitettäköön, älköönkä sen lihaa syötäkö; mutta härän omistaja olkoon vapaa rangaistuksesta.

29 Mutta jos härkä on ennenkin puskenut ja sen isäntää on varoitettu eikä hän ole sitä vartioinut, ja jos se tappaa miehen tai naisen, niin härkä kivitettäköön, ja myös sen isäntä rangaistakoon kuolemalla.

30 Mutta jos hänelle määrätään lunastusmaksu, niin maksakoon henkensä lunnaiksi niin paljon, kuin hänelle määrätään.

31 Jos se puskee pojan tai tytön, niin meneteltäköön saman lain mukaan.

32 Jos härkä puskee orjan tai orjattaren, niin maksakoon sen omistaja pusketun isännälle kolmekymmentä hopeasekeliä, ja härkä kivitettäköön.

33 Jos joku jättää kaivon auki tahi kaivaa kaivon eikä peitä sitä, ja härkä tai aasi putoaa siihen,

34 niin kaivon omistaja korvatkoon isännälle sen rahassa; mutta kuollut eläin olkoon hänen.

35 Jos jonkun härkä puskee toisen härän kuoliaaksi, niin myykööt elävän härän ja jakakoot sen hinnan, ja myös kuolleen jakakoot keskenään.

36 Jos taas oli tunnettua, että se härkä ennenkin oli puskenut eikä sen isäntä ollut sitä vartioinut, niin antakoon härän härästä, mutta kuollut olkoon hänen."

9064. Verses 28-36 And when an ox strikes a man or a woman with its horn, and [the person] dies, the ox shall surely be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; and the owner 1 of the ox shall be guiltless. And if the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past, 2 and this has been testified to its owner' and he does not keep it in, and it kills a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned, and also its owner' shall die. If expiation has been imposed on him 3 , he shall pay for the redemption of his soul according to all that has been imposed on him. Whether it strikes a son with its horn or strikes a daughter with its horn, according to this judgement it shall be done to him. If the ox strikes a male slave with its horn, or a female slave, [the owner] shall give their master thirty shekels of silver; and the ox shall be stoned. And when a man opens a pit, or when a man digs a pit, and does not cover it, and an ox or an ass falls into it, [the owner] of the pit shall make repayment; he shall give silver to its owner, 4 and the dead [animal] shall be his. And when a man's ox inflicts a blow on his companion's ox, and it dies, they shall sell the living ox, and divide the silver from it; and they shall also divide the dead one. Or if it is known that the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past, 5 and its owner 4 does not keep it in, he shall surely repay ox for ox; and the dead one shall be his.

'And when an ox strikes a man or a woman with its horn' means if an affection for evil in the natural injures the truth or the good of faith. 'And [the person] dies' means to the extent that it destroys it. 'It shall surely be stoned' means the punishment for destroying the truth or good of faith. 'And its flesh shall not be eaten' means that this evil must not by any means be made one's own but must be cast away. 'And the owner of the ox shall be guiltless' means that the evil is not attributable to the internal man, because it has come from the will but not from the understanding. 'And if the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past' means if the affection for evil has existed for a long time. 'And this has been testified to its owner' means, and this evil has passed into the understanding. 'And he does not keep it in' means failure to restrain it. 'And it kills a man or a woman' means if it then destroys the truth or the good of faith. 'The ox shall be stoned' means the punishment for destroying truth. 'And also its owner shall die' means damnation of the internal man. 'If expiation has been imposed on him' means in order that he may be made free from damnation. 'He shall pay for the redemption of his soul' means painful experiences of repentance. 'According to all that has been imposed on him' means according to the nature of the affection for evil springing from the understanding. 'Whether it strikes a son with its horn or strikes a daughter with its horn' means an assault made by an affection for evil on truths and forms of the good of faith that are derived from interior things. 'According to this judgement it shall be done to him' means that the punishment will be similar. 'If the ox strikes a male slave with its horn, or a female slave' means if the affection for evil destroys truth or good in the natural. '[The owner] shall give their master thirty shekels of silver' means that the internal man shall restore it completely. 'And the ox shall be stoned' means the punishment for destroying truth and good in the natural. 'And when a man opens a pit' means if anyone receives falsity from another. 'Or when a man digs a pit, land does not cover it]' means, or if the person himself fabricates it. 'And an ox or an ass falls into it' means, which perverts good or truth in the natural. 'The owner of the pit shall make repayment' means that the one with whom the falsity resides shall make amends. 'He shall give silver to its owner' means by means of truth with him whose good or truth in the natural has been perverted. 'And the dead [animal] shall be his' means that the evil or falsity will remain with him. 'And when a man's ox inflicts a blow on his companion's ox' means two truths with dissimilar affections, and the affection with one injures that with the other. 'And it dies' means so severely that the good affection perishes. 'They shall sell the living ox' means that the affection with the one which has injured the affection with the other shall be alienated. 'And divide the silver from it' means that its truth will be dispersed. 'And they shall also divide the dead one' means that the injuring affection as well will be dispersed. 'Or if it is known that the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past' means if it has been known previously that its affection is such. 'And its owner does not keep it in' means, and if it is not held in bonds. 'He shall surely repay ox for ox' means restoration to the full. 'And the dead one shall be his' means for the injuring affection.

Exodus 21

Studie

   

1 "Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them.

2 "If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years and in the seventh he shall go out free without paying anything.

3 If he comes in by himself, he shall go out by himself. If he is married, then his wife shall go out with him.

4 If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.

5 But if the servant shall plainly say, 'I love my master, my wife, and my children. I will not go out free;'

6 then his master shall bring him to God, and shall bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.

7 "If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go out as the male servants do.

8 If she doesn't please her master, who has married her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9 If he marries her to his son, he shall deal with her as a daughter.

10 If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights.

11 If he doesn't do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.

12 "One who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death,

13 but not if it is unintentional, but God allows it to happen: then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee.

14 If a man schemes and comes presumptuously on his neighbor to kill him, you shall take him from my altar, that he may die.

15 "Anyone who attacks his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.

16 "Anyone who kidnaps someone and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

17 "Anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.

18 "If men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he doesn't die, but is confined to bed;

19 if he rises again and walks around with his staff, then he who struck him shall be cleared: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall provide for his healing until he is thoroughly healed.

20 "If a man strikes his servant or his maid with a rod, and he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished.

21 Notwithstanding, if he gets up after a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his property.

22 "If men fight and hurt a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely, and yet no harm follows, he shall be surely fined as much as the woman's husband demands and the judges allow.

23 But if any harm follows, then you must take life for life,

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

25 burning for burning, wound for wound, and bruise for bruise.

26 "If a man strikes his servant's eye, or his maid's eye, and destroys it, he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.

27 If he strikes out his male servant's tooth, or his female servant's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.

28 "If a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull shall surely be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall not be held responsible.

29 But if the bull had a habit of goring in the past, and it has been testified to its owner, and he has not kept it in, but it has killed a man or a woman, the bull shall be stoned, and its owner shall also be put to death.

30 If a ransom is laid on him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is laid on him.

31 Whether it has gored a son or has gored a daughter, according to this judgment it shall be done to him.

32 If the bull gores a male servant or a female servant, thirty shekels of silver shall be given to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.

33 "If a man opens a pit, or if a man digs a pit and doesn't cover it, and a bull or a donkey falls into it,

34 the owner of the pit shall make it good. He shall give money to its owner, and the dead animal shall be his.

35 "If one man's bull injures another's, so that it dies, then they shall sell the live bull, and divide its price; and they shall also divide the dead animal.

36 Or if it is known that the bull was in the habit of goring in the past, and its owner has not kept it in, he shall surely pay bull for bull, and the dead animal shall be his own.
