Leviticus 19
1 And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I Jehovah your God am holy.
“Gwa ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile okwu sị ha: ‘Dịnụ nsọ, nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, dị nsọ.
3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father; and ye shall keep my sabbaths: I am Jehovah your God.
“‘Onye ọbụla nʼime unu aghaghị ịsọpụrụ nne na nna ya, debekwa iwu m nyere maka ụbọchị izuike, nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Jehovah your God.
“‘Unu akpọla isiala nye arụsị, unu emekwarala onwe unu chi ndị e ji ọla kpụọ. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
5 And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto Jehovah, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted.
“‘Mgbe unu ga-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja udo, soronụ ụkpụrụ m nyere unu chụọ ya, ka m nabata ya.
6 It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and if aught remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire.
Unu ga-eri ya nʼụbọchị ahụ unu chụrụ ya, maọbụ nʼụbọchị nke na-eso ụbọchị ahụ. Nke ọbụla fọdụrụ ruo ụbọchị nke atọ ka unu ga-esure ọkụ.
7 And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination; it shall not be accepted:
Ọ bụrụ na unu erie ya nʼụbọchị nke atọ ihe arụ ka ọ bụ. A gaghị anabata aja ọbụla unu ga-eri nʼụbọchị nke atọ.
8 but every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of Jehovah: and that soul shall be cut off from his people.

9 And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest.

10 And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather the fallen fruit of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am Jehovah your God.

11 Ye shall not steal; neither shall ye deal falsely, nor lie one to another.
“‘Unu ezula ohi. “‘Unu aghala ụgha. “‘Unu aghọgbula ibe unu.
12 And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah.
“‘Unu aṅụla iyi ụgha, si otu a weta nkọcha nye aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
13 Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbor, nor rob him: the wages of a hired servant shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
“‘Unu ejila ike pụnara onye agbataobi unu ihe ya, maọbụ zuru ihe o nwere nʼohi. “‘Kwụọnụ onye ọbụla unu goro ọrụ ụgwọ ọrụ ya ọsịịsọ. Unu echela ka chi bọọ tupu unu akwụọ ya ụgwọ ya.

15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty; but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor.
“‘Unu ekpela ikpe na-ezighị ezi, unu elela mmadụ anya nʼihu mgbe unu na-ekpe ikpe, ma onye unu na-ekpe ikpe ọ bụ ọgaranya maọbụ ogbenye. Kama kpeenụ ikpe kwụ ọtọ.
16 Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor: I am Jehovah.
“‘Unu ejegharịla na-agbasa okwu nkwujọ nʼetiti ndị mmadụ. “‘Emela ihe ọbụla ga-ebutere onye agbataobi gị ọnwụ. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt surely rebuke thy neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with two kinds of seed: neither shall there come upon thee a garment of two kinds of stuff mingled together.

20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to a husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; they shall be punished; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na nwoke ọbụla akpọrọ nwaagbọghọ bụ ohu nwanyị nke a na-agbapụtabeghị, maọbụ nke na-enwerebeghị onwe ya, nke nwoke ọzọ chọrọ ịlụ, mee ka ha abụọ dinakọọ, a ga-ekpe ha abụọ ikpe nʼụlọikpe, ma a gaghị egbu ha, nʼihi na nwanyị ahụ abụghị onye nwe onwe ya.

23 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as their uncircumcision: three years shall they be as uncircumcised unto you; it shall not be eaten.
“‘Mgbe unu batara nʼala ahụ kụọ mkpụrụ osisi dị iche iche, unu erila mkpụrụ osisi ahụ mịrị nʼafọ nke mbụ, ọ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ. Ruo nʼafọ nke atọ, ha bụ ihe rụrụ arụ. Unu agaghị eri ha.
