Eksodusi 21
1Lezi yizahlulelo okumelwe uzenze kubo.
2Uma uthenga isigqila esingumHeberu, siyakusebenza iminyaka eyisithupha; kanti kowesikhombisa kumelwe ahambe ngokukhululeka mahhala.
3Uma ingene yodwa, kumelwe iphume yodwa; uma ishadile, umkayo makaphume nayo.
4Uma inkosi yaso isinika umfazi, walizalela amadodana noma amadodakazi; umfazi nabantwana bakhe bayakuba nenkosi yakhe, yona iphume iyodwa.
5Uma inceku isho nokusho ukuthi: ‘Ngithanda inkosi yami, nomkami, nabantwana bami; Ngeke ngiphume ngikhululekile.
6Inkosi yaso iyakusiletha kubahluleli; amlethe ngasemnyango noma ensikeni yomnyango; inkosi yaso iyakuyibhoboza indlebe yaso ngosungulo; futhi uyomkhonza kuze kube phakade.
7Uma umuntu ethengisa ngendodakazi yakhe ukuba ibe yisigqila, ayiyikuphuma njengezigqila.
8Uma ingathokozisi inkosi yaso, eyakugana yona, iyakumvumela ukuba ahlengwe; ukuyithengisa esizweni sabezizwe, ayiyikuba namandla, ngokuba iyenze ngobuqili kuyo.
9Futhi uma iyithembise indodana yayo, kumelwe yenze kuyo ngokwendlela yamadodakazi.
10Uma izithathela omunye umfazi; ukudla kwakhe, nezingubo zakhe, nemfanelo yakhe yokugana, makanganciphisi.
11Futhi uma ingakwenzi lokho okuthathu kuyo, kumelwe ihambe ngokukhululeka ngaphandle kwemali.
12Oshaya umuntu aze afe, wobulawa nokubulawa.
13Uma umuntu engaboni, kepha uNkulunkulu uyamnikela esandleni sakhe; khona-ke ngizakutshengisa indawo lapho azabalekela khona.
14Kepha uma umuntu efika kumakhelwane wakhe ngokugabadela, ukumbulala ngobuqili; kumelwe umsuse e-altare lami, ukuze afe.
15Oshaya uyise noma unina wobulawa nokubulawa.
16Oweba umuntu, athengise ngaye, noma efunyanwa esandleni sakhe, wobulawa nokubulawa.
17Othuka uyise noma unina wobulawa nokubulawa.
18Uma abantu bexabana, omunye ashaye omunye ngetshe noma ngesibhakela, angafi, kodwa athabathe uhlaka lwakhe;
19Uma evuka futhi ehamba ngodondolo lwakhe, omshayileyo uyakukhululwa; kuphela oyokhokhela ukulahlekelwa yisikhathi sakhe futhi amphulukise ngokuphelele.
20Uma umuntu eshaya inceku yakhe noma incekukazi yakhe ngodondolo, futhi ife ngesandla sakhe; nakanjani uzojeziswa.
21Kodwa uma eqhubeka usuku noma ezimbili, akayikujeziswa, ngoba iyimali yakhe.
22Uma amadoda exabana, alimaze owesifazane okhulelweyo, size siphume kuye, nokho kungaveli lutho olubi; futhi uyakukhokha njengokunquma kwabahluleli.
23Uma kuba khona okubi, uyakunikela ukuphila ngokuphila,
24Iso ngeso, izinyo ngezinyo, isandla ngesandla, unyawo ngonyawo,
25Ukushiswa ngokushiswa, inxeba ngesilonda, umvimbo ngomvimbo.
26Uma umuntu eshaya iso lesigqila sakhe noma iso lencekukazi yakhe, libhubhe; kufanele amkhulule ngenxa yeso lakhe.
27Uma ekhuphula izinyo lenceku yakhe noma izinyo lencekukazi yakhe; kumelwe amkhulule ngenxa yezinyo lakhe.
28Uma inkabi idwengula owesilisa noma owesifazane, baze bafe, inkabi kumelwe ikhandwe ngamatshe, inyama yayo ingadliwa; kodwa umnikazi wezinkomo uyokhululwa.
29Kepha uma inkabi ihlaba ngophondo, kwafakazelwa umniniyo, akayibambanga, kepha wabulala owesilisa noma owesifazane; inkomo kumelwe ikhandwe ngamatshe, nomnikazi wayo naye abulawe.
30Uma ikhokhiswa isamba semali kuye, kumelwe akhiphe konke okubekwa phezu kwakhe kube yisihlengo sokuphila kwakhe.
31Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ushaye indodana noma indodakazi, kumelwe kwenziwe kuye ngokwalesi sahlulelo.
32Uma inkabi isunduza isigqila noma incekukazi; kumelwe anike inkosi yabo amashekeli angamashumi amathathu esiliva, futhi inkabi kumelwe ikhandwe ngamatshe.
33Uma umuntu evula umthombo, noma emba umthombo, angawusibeki, kuwele kuwo inkabi noma imbongolo;
34Umnikazi womthombo kumelwe awulungise, anike umnikazi wawo imali; lesilwane esifileyo sibe ngesakhe.
35Uma inkomo yomuntu ilimaza eyomunye, iyafa; bayakuthengisa ngenkabi ephilayo, bahlukaniselane imali yayo; futhi nenkomo efile kumelwe bahlukanise.
36Noma kwakwaziwa ukuthi inkabi ibihlaba ngaphambili, umniniyo akayibambanga; uyakuyikhokha impela inkabi ngenkabi; labafileyo bazakuba ngabakhe.
