Now these are the ordinances{H4941} which thou shalt set{H7760} before{H6440} them.

If thou buy{H7069} a Hebrew{H5680} servant,{H5650} six{H8337} years{H8141} he shall serve:{H5647} and in the seventh{H7637} he shall go out{H3318} free{H2670} for nothing.{H2600}

If he come in{H935} by himself,{H1610} he shall go out{H3318} by himself:{H1610} if he be married,{H1167} then his wife{H802} shall go out{H3318} with him.

If his master{H113} give{H5414} him a wife,{H802} and she bear{H3205} him sons{H1121} or daughters;{H1323} the wife{H802} and her children{H1121} shall be her master's,{H113} and he shall go out{H3318} by himself.{H1610}

But if the servant{H5650} shall plainly{H559} say,{H559} I love{H157} my master,{H113} my wife,{H802} and my children;{H1121} I will not go out{H3318} free:{H2670}

then his master{H113} shall bring{H5066} him unto God,{H430} and shall bring{H5066} him to the door,{H1817} or unto the door-post;{H4201} and his master{H113} shall bore{H7527} his ear{H241} through with an awl;{H4836} and he shall serve{H5647} him for ever.{H5769}

And if a man{H376} sell{H4376} his daughter{H1323} to be a maid-servant,{H519} she shall not go out{H3318} as the men-servants{H5650} do.{H3318}

If she please{H7451} not her master,{H113} who hath espoused{H3259} her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed:{H6299} to sell{H4376} her unto a foreign{H5237} people{H5971} he shall have no power,{H4910} seeing he hath dealt deceitfully{H898} with her.

And if he espouse{H3259} her unto his son,{H1121} he shall deal{H6213} with her after the manner{H4941} of daughters.{H1323}

If he take{H3947} him another{H312} [wife]; her food,{H7607} her raiment,{H3682} and her duty of marriage,{H5772} shall he not diminish.{H1639}

And if he do{H6213} not these three{H7969} things unto her, then shall she go out{H3318} for nothing,{H2600} without money.{H3701}

He that smiteth{H5221} a man,{H376} so that he dieth,{H4191} shall surely{H4191} be put to death.{H4191}

And if a man lie not in wait,{H6658} but God{H430} deliver{H579} [him] into his hand;{H3027} then I will appoint{H7760} thee a place{H4725} whither he shall flee.{H5127}

And if a man{H376} come presumptuously{H2102} upon his neighbor,{H7453} to slay{H2026} him with guile;{H6195} thou shalt take{H3947} him from mine altar,{H4196} that he may die.{H4191}

And he that smiteth{H5221} his father,{H1} or his mother,{H517} shall be surely{H4191} put to death.{H4191}

And he that stealeth{H1589} a man,{H376} and selleth{H4376} him, or if he be found{H4672} in his hand,{H3027} he shall surely{H4191} be put to death.{H4191}

And he that curseth{H7043} his father{H1} or his mother,{H517} shall surely{H4191} be put to death.{H4191}

And if men{H582} contend,{H7378} and one{H376} smite{H5221} the other{H7453} with a stone,{H68} or{H176} with his fist,{H106} and he die{H4191} not, but keep{H5307} his bed;{H4904}

if he rise again,{H6965} and walk{H1980} abroad{H2351} upon his staff,{H4938} then shall he that smote{H5221} him be quit:{H5352} only he shall pay{H5414} for the loss of his time,{H7674} and shall cause him to be thoroughly{H7495} healed.{H7495}

And if a man{H376} smite{H5221} his servant,{H5650} or his maid,{H519} with a rod,{H7626} and he die{H4191} under his hand;{H3027} he shall surely{H5358} be punished.{H5358}

Notwithstanding,{H389} if he continue{H5975} a day{H3117} or two,{H8147} he shall not be punished:{H5358} for he is his money.{H3701}

And if men{H582} strive{H5327} together, and hurt{H5062} a woman{H802} with child,{H2030} so that her fruit{H3206} depart,{H3318} and yet no harm follow;{H611} he shall be surely{H6064} fined,{H6064} according as the woman's{H802} husband{H1167} shall lay{H7896} upon him; and he shall pay{H5414} as the judges{H6414} determine.

But if any harm follow,{H611} then thou shalt give{H5414} life{H5315} for life,{H5315}

eye{H5869} for eye,{H5869} tooth{H8127} for tooth,{H8127} hand{H3027} for hand,{H3027} foot{H7272} for foot,{H7272}

burning{H3555} for burning,{H3555} wound{H6482} for wound,{H6482} stripe{H2250} for stripe.{H2250}

And if a man{H376} smite{H5221} the eye{H5869} of his servant,{H5650} or the eye{H5869} of his maid,{H519} and destroy{H7843} it; he shall let him go{H7971} free{H2670} for{H8478} his eye's{H5869} sake.

And if he smite{H5307} out his man-servant's{H5650} tooth,{H8127} or his maid-servant's{H519} tooth;{H8127} he shall let him go{H7971} free{H2670} for his tooth's{H8127} sake.

And if an ox{H7794} gore{H5055} a man{H376} or a woman{H802} to death, the ox{H7794} shall be surely{H5619} stoned,{H5619} and its flesh{H1320} shall not be eaten;{H398} but the owner{H1167} of the ox{H7794} shall be quit.{H5355}

But if the ox{H7794} was wont to gore{H5056} in time past,{H8543} and it hath been testified{H5749} to its owner,{H1167} and he hath not kept{H8104} it in, but it hath killed{H4191} a man{H376} or a woman;{H802} the ox{H7794} shall be stoned,{H5619} and its owner{H1167} also shall be put to death.{H4191}

If there be laid{H7896} on him a ransom,{H3724} then he shall give{H5414} for the redemption{H6306} of his life{H5315} whatsoever is laid{H7896} upon him.

Whether it have gored{H5055} a son,{H1121} or{H176} have gored{H5055} a daughter,{H1323} according to this judgment{H4941} shall it be done{H6213} unto him.

If the ox{H7794} gore{H5055} a man-servant{H5650} or a maid-servant,{H519} there shall be given{H5414} unto their master{H113} thirty{H7970} shekels{H8255} of silver,{H3701} and the ox{H7794} shall be stoned.{H5619}

And if a man{H376} shall open{H6605} a pit,{H953} or if a man{H376} shall dig{H3738} a pit{H953} and not cover{H3680} it, and an ox{H7794} or an ass{H2543} fall{H5307} therein,

the owner{H1167} of the pit{H953} shall make it good;{H7999} he shall give{H7725} money{H3701} unto the owner{H1167} thereof, and the dead{H4191} [beast] shall be his.

And if one man's{H376} ox{H7794} hurt{H5062} another's,{H7453} so that it dieth,{H4191} then they shall sell{H4376} the live{H2416} ox,{H7794} and divide{H2673} the price{H3701} of it; and the dead{H4191} also they shall divide.{H2673}

Or if it be known{H3045} that the ox{H7794} was wont to gore{H5056} in time past,{H8543} and its owner{H1167} hath not kept{H8104} it in; he shall surely{H7999} pay{H7999} ox{H7794} for ox,{H7794} and the dead{H4191} [beast] shall be his own.
