Deuteronomy 23
1 He who is emasculated by crushing or cutting shall not enter into the LORD’s assembly.
Nwoke ọbụla echipịara mkpụrụ amụ ya, maọbụ nke e bipụrụ mkpụrụ amụ ya, agaghị esonye na mkpọkọta Onyenwe anyị.
2 A person born of a forbidden union shall not enter into the LORD’s assembly; even to the tenth generation shall no one of his enter into the LORD’s assembly.
Nwa ọbụla a mụtara site nʼịkwa iko agakwaghị esonye na mkpọkọta Onyenwe anyị, ụmụ ụmụ ya, ruo nʼọgbọ nke iri, agakwaghị esonye na mkpọkọta Onyenwe anyị.
3 An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the LORD’s assembly; even to the tenth generation shall no one belonging to them enter into the LORD’s assembly forever,
Onye Amọn, maọbụ onye Moab, agaghị esonye na mkpọkọta Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụladị ruo nʼọgbọ nke iri ha.
4 because they did not meet you with bread and with water on the way when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
Nʼihi na ha e jighị achịcha na mmiri bịa zute unu nʼụzọ mgbe unu si Ijipt pụta, ha goro Belam, nwa Beoa, onye si Petọ nke dị na Aram Naharaim, ka ọ bụọ unu ọnụ.
5 Nevertheless the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam, but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God loved you.
Ma Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị egeghị Belam ntị, kama Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị gbanwere ịbụ ọnụ ahụ mee ka ọ ghọọrọ gị ngọzị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị hụrụ gị nʼanya.
6 You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
Achọla udo ndị Amọn na Moab, na ọdịmma ha ụbọchị ndụ gị niile ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
7 You shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
Ma eledala ndị Edọm anya, nʼihi na ndị Edọm bụ ụmụnna unu. Unu eledala ndị Ijipt anya, nʼihi na unu biri dịka ndị ọbịa nʼime ala ha.
8 The children of the third generation who are born to them may enter into the LORD’s assembly.
Ụmụ a ga-amụrụ ha nʼọgbọ nke atọ ha nwere ike ịbata na mkpọkọta nke Onyenwe anyị.
9 When you go out and camp against your enemies, then you shall keep yourselves from every evil thing.
Mgbe unu mara ụlọ ikwu unu maka ibu agha megide ndị iro unu, wezuganụ onwe unu site nʼihe ọbụla na-adịghị ọcha.
10 If there is among you any man who is not clean by reason of that which happens to him by night, then shall he go outside of the camp. He shall not come within the camp;
Nwoke ọbụla nʼetiti gị nke na-adịghị ọcha site nʼịnyụ mkpụrụ nwa nʼahụ ya nʼabalị, ga-apụ gaa nọdụ nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu.
11 but it shall be, when evening comes, he shall bathe himself in water. When the sun is down, he shall come within the camp.
Ọ ga-anọ nʼebe ahụ ruo uhuruchi, emesịa, ọ ga-asa ahụ ya lọghachi nʼụlọ ikwu nʼanyasị.
12 You shall have a place also outside of the camp where you go relieve yourself.
Ị ga-enwekwa otu ebe ndị gị ga-anọ jee nʼogwe ga-adị nʼazụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu.
13 You shall have a trowel among your weapons. It shall be, when you relieve yourself, you shall dig with it, and shall turn back and cover your excrement;
Onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-enwe shọvel dịka otu nʼime ngwa agha ya. Mgbe ọbụla kwa o jere nʼogwe, ọ ga-eji ya gwuo ala kpochie nsị ọ nyụrụ.
14 for the LORD your God walks in the middle of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you. Therefore your camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
Ụlọ ikwu gị ga-adị nsọ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-ejegharị nʼetiti gị ichebe gị, na ịnapụta gị site nʼaka ndị iro gị. Onyenwe anyị achọghị ihu ihe ọbụla na-adịghị mma nʼanya, ka ọ ghara ịlaghachi azụ iso gị.
15 You shall not deliver to his master a servant who has escaped from his master to you.
Ọ bụrụ na ohu esite nʼaka onye nwe ya gbakwute unu, akwagidela ya ka ọ lọghachi,
16 He shall dwell with you, among you, in the place which he shall choose within one of your gates, where it pleases him best. You shall not oppress him.
hapụ ya ka o biri nʼetiti gị nʼime obodo ọbụla masịrị ya, emegbukwala ya.
17 There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
Ọ dịghị nwoke maọbụ nwanyị, onye Izrel ga-aghọ akwụna ụlọ arụsị.
18 You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a male prostitute, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow; for both of these are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Ị gaghị ewebata nʼụlọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, onyinye ọbụla site nʼego nwanyị na-agba akwụna kpatara, maọbụ site nʼego nwoke ahụ na-edebe onwe ya dịka akwụna nye ndị ikom ibe ya kpatara, iji mezuo nkwa ọbụla. Nʼihi na ha abụọ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
19 You shall not lend on interest to your brother: interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent on interest.
A nakwala onye Izrel ibe gị ọmụrụnwa, nʼihe ọbụla i binyere ya, maọbụ ego, maọbụ nri, ma ọ bụkwanụ ihe ọbụla ọzọ nwere ike ịmụta ọmụrụnwa.
20 You may charge a foreigner interest; but you shall not charge your brother interest, that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land where you go in to possess it.
Onye mba ọzọ ka ị ga-ana ọmụrụnwa nʼihe i binyere ya, ọ bụghị onye Izrel ibe gị. Ka Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị gọzie gị nʼihe niile i tinyere aka gị ime nʼala ahụ nke ị na-aba inweta.
21 When you vow a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not be slack to pay it, for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
Mgbe i kwere Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nkwa, alala azụ nʼịkwụghachi ya, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị chọrọ ka ị kwụghachi nkwa gị ọsịịsọ. Ọ ga-abụkwara gị mmehie ma i meghị ya.
22 But if you refrain from making a vow, it shall be no sin in you.
Ma ọ gaghị abụrụ gị mmehie ma ọ bụrụ na i kweghị nkwa ọbụla!
23 You shall observe and do that which has gone out of your lips. Whatever you have vowed to the LORD your God as a free will offering, which you have promised with your mouth, you must do.
Ihe ọbụla nke i kwere na nkwa, jisie ike hụ na i mezuru nke ahụ dịka okwu gị si dị, nʼihi na ọ bụ onyinye afọ ofufu nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
24 When you come into your neighbor’s vineyard, then you may eat your fill of grapes at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your container.
Ọ bụrụ na ị banye nʼubi vaịnị onye agbataobi gị, i nwere ike ghọrọ mkpụrụ vaịnị ọbụla ị chọrọ rachaa nʼebe ahụ, ma etinyela mkpụrụ ọbụla nʼakpa gị.
25 When you come into your neighbor’s standing grain, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not use a sickle on your neighbor’s standing grain.
Otu a kwa, ị banye nʼubi ọka onye agbataobi gị, ghọrọ mkpụrụ ọka ọbụla ị chọrọ nʼaka gị, nọọkwa nʼebe ahụ taa ya, ma ị gaghị etinye mma iwe ihe ubi nʼime ọka ha ndị guzoro eguzo.
