(GWT) Exodus 21 : 1 [The LORD continued,] "Here are the legal decisions to be used by the Israelites:
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 2 "Whenever you buy a Hebrew slave, he will be your slave for six years. In the seventh year he may leave as a free man, without paying for his freedom.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 3 If he comes to you by himself, he must leave by himself. If he comes as a married man, his wife may leave with him.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 4 If his master gives him a wife and she gives birth to sons or daughters, the wife and her children belong to the master, and the slave must leave by himself.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 5 But if he makes this statement: 'I hereby declare my love for my master, my wife, and my children. I don't want to leave as a free man,'
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 6 then his master must bring him to God. The master must bring him to the door or the doorframe and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he will be his slave for life.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 7 "Whenever a man sells his daughter into slavery, she will not go free the way male slaves do.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 8 If she doesn't please the master who has chosen her as a wife, he must let her be bought back by one of her close relatives. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, since he has treated her unfairly.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 9 But if he has chosen her for his son, he must treat her like a daughter.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 10 If that son marries another woman, he must not deprive the first wife of food, clothes, or sex.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 11 If he doesn't give her these three things, she can go free, without paying any money for her freedom.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 12 "Whoever strikes someone and kills him must be put to death.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 13 If it wasn't done intentionally, but God let it happen, the killer should flee to a place I will set aside for you.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 14 But whenever someone becomes so angry that he plans to kill his neighbor, you must take him away from my altar and put him to death.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 15 "Whoever hits his father or mother must be put to death.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 16 "Whoever kidnaps another person must be put to death, whether he has sold the kidnapped person or still has him.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 17 "Whoever curses his father or mother must be put to death.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 18 "This is what you must do whenever men quarrel and one hits the other with a rock or with his fist and injures him so that he has to stay in bed.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 19 If the injured man can get up again and walk around outside with a cane, the one who hit him must not be punished. He must pay the injured man for the loss of his time and for all his medical expenses.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 20 "Whenever an owner hits his male or female slave with a stick so that the slave dies from the beating, the owner must be punished.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 21 But if the slave gets up in a day or two, the owner must not be punished. The slave is his property.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 22 "This is what you must do whenever men fight and injure a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely. If there are no other injuries, the offender must pay whatever fine the court allows the woman's husband to demand.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 23 If anyone is injured, the offender must pay a life for a life,
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 24 an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 25 a burn for a burn, a bruise for a bruise, a wound for a wound.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 26 "Whenever an owner hits his male or female slave in the eye and the slave is blinded, he must let the slave go free to make up for the loss of the eye.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 27 If the owner knocks out the tooth of his male or female slave, he must let the slave go free to make up for the loss of the tooth.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 28 "Whenever a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull must be stoned to death, and its meat may not be eaten. The bull's owner is free from any liability.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 29 But if the bull has had the habit of goring, and the owner has been warned but has not kept it confined, and it kills a man or a woman, then the bull must be stoned and its owner must be put to death, too.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 30 However, if only a cash settlement is demanded from the owner, the bull's owner may save his life by paying whatever price is demanded of him.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 31 If the bull gores someone's son or daughter, this same ruling applies.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 32 If the bull gores a male or female slave, its owner must pay 12 ounces of silver to the slave's master, and the bull must be stoned.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 33 "Whenever someone opens up a cistern or digs a new one and doesn't cover it and a bull or a donkey falls into it,
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 34 the owner of the cistern must make up for the loss. He must pay money to the animal's owner, and then the dead animal will be his.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 35 "Whenever one person's bull kills another person's bull, they must sell the live bull and divide the money between them. They must divide the dead bull, too.
(GWT) Exodus 21 : 36 However, if it was known that the bull had the habit of goring, and its owner didn't keep it confined, the owner must make up for the loss-bull for bull-and then the dead bull will be his."
