Deuteronomy 22
1 If you see your brother’s ox or sheep straying, you must not ignore it; be sure to return it to your brother.
Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ehi, maọbụ atụrụ nwanna gị ka ọ na-akpafu, emela dịka a ga-asị na ị hụghị ya, jide ya, kpụlaara ya onye nwe ya.
2 If your brother does not live near you, or if you do not know who he is, you are to take the animal home to remain with you until your brother comes seeking it; then you can return it to him.
Ọ bụrụ na ị maghị onye nwe ya, maọbụ na nwanna gị ebighị nso, were ya laa nʼụlọ gị, hapụ ya nʼebe ahụ tutu onye nwe ya achọwa ya, mgbe ahụ ka ị ga-ewere ya nyeghachi ya.
3 And you shall do the same for his donkey, his cloak, or anything your brother has lost and you have found. You must not ignore it.
Otu a kwa ka ị ga-eme ma ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu nwanna gị, maọbụ uwe, maọbụ ihe ọbụla ị ga-atụtụta. Were ya debere onye nwe ya.
4 If you see your brother’s donkey or ox fallen on the road, you must not ignore it; you must help him lift it up.
Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu, maọbụ ehi nwanna gị ka ha dara nʼụzọ, elela anya nʼebe ọzọ, gaa nyere ya aka bulie ya.
5 A woman must not wear men’s clothing, and a man must not wear women’s clothing, for whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD your God.
Nwanyị ekwesighị iyi uwe ndị ikom, nwoke agaghị eyikwa uwe ndị inyom. Nʼihi na ihe arụ ka ọ bụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
6 If you come across a bird’s nest with chicks or eggs, either in a tree or on the ground along the road, and the mother is sitting on the chicks or eggs, you must not take the mother along with the young.
Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ akwụ nnụnụ tọgbọ nʼala, maọbụ nke dị nʼelu osisi, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ bụ nnụnụ nke nọ nʼelu ụmụ ya, maọbụ nʼelu akwa ya, ewerela nne na ụmụ nnụnụ ya.
7 You may take the young, but be sure to let the mother go, so that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.
Hapụ nne nnụnụ ka ọ laa, ma were naanị ụmụ ya. Ihe ga-agakwara gị nke ọma nʼihi ya, ị ga-enwekwa ndụ ogologo.
8 If you build a new house, you are to construct a railing around your roof, so that you do not bring bloodguilt on your house if someone falls from it.
Mgbe i wuru ụlọ, wuokwa ihe mgbochi gburugburu elu ya, nke ga-eme ka onye ọbụla ghara isi nʼelu ya dapụ, si otu a wetara ụlọ na onye nwe ya ikpe ọmụma nke iwufu ọbara.
9 Do not plant your vineyard with two types of seed; if you do, the entire harvest will be defiled —both the crop you plant and the fruit of your vineyard.
Akụla ụdị mkpụrụ abụọ nʼubi vaịnị gị. Ọ bụrụ na i mee otu a, ihe ọkụkụ ndị a, na mkpụrụ ha mịrị ga-abụ ihe rụrụ arụ.
10 Do not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked together.
Ejikọla ehi na ịnyịnya ibu maka ịdọ ihe e ji akọ ala ubi.
11 Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together.
Eyila uwe e ji ụzọ ihe abụọ kpaa, dịka uwe ajị anụ na ogho ọcha kpaa.
12 You are to make tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear.
Ị ga-akpanyere onwe gị ihe ogho akpara akpa, nʼakụkụ anọ nke uwe mgbokwasị gị.
13 Suppose a man marries a woman, has relations with her, and comes to hate her,
Ọ bụrụ na nwoke alụọ nwaagbọghọ, mesie mgbe o dinakwuru ya kpebie nʼobi ya na ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya ọzọ,
14 and he then accuses her of shameful conduct and gives her a bad name, saying, “I married this woman and had relations with her, but I discovered she was not a virgin.”
ọ bụrụ na nwoke a ekwutọọ nwaagbọghọ ahụ, mebie aha ya kwuo na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amatalarị nwoke tupu ha abụọ alụọ,
15 Then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring the proof of her virginity to the city elders at the gate
nne nwaagbọghọ ahụ, na nna ya, ga-ewere ihe ga-egosi na nwa ha amabeghị nwoke gaa nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama.
16 and say to the elders, “I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he has come to hate her.
Nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-agwa ndị okenye, “Enyere m nwoke a nwa m nwanyị dịka nwunye, ma ugbu a, ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya.
17 And now he has accused her of shameful conduct, saying, ‘I discovered that your daughter was not a virgin.’ But here is the proof of her virginity.” And they shall spread out the cloth before the city elders.
Ugbu a, o boola ya ebubo ihere, sị, ‘Achọpụtaghị m ihe ọbụla nʼahụ nwa gị nwanyị a ihe na-egosi na ọ maghị nwoke.’ Ma nke a bụ ihe ngosi na ada anyị amaghị nwoke.” Mgbe ahụ ndị mụrụ ya ga-agbasapụ akwa ahụ nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ.
18 Then the elders of that city shall take the man and punish him.
Ndị okenye obodo ahụ ga-akpọrọ nwoke nyekwa ya ahụhụ.
19 They are also to fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, because this man has given a virgin of Israel a bad name. And she shall remain his wife; he must not divorce her as long as he lives.
Ha ga-emekwa ya ka ọ kwụọ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ narị shekel ọlaọcha, nʼihi na o boro nwaagbọghọ Izrel na-amaghị nwoke ebubo ụgha. Nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anọgide bụrụ nwunye nwoke ahụ. Nwoke ahụ agaghị achụpụkwa ya ụbọchị ndụ ya niile.
20 If, however, this accusation is true, and no proof of the young woman’s virginity can be found,
Ma ọ bụrụ na ebubo nwoke ahụ bụ eziokwu, na achọpụtaghị ihe gosiri na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amaghị nwoke.
21 she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house, and there the men of her city will stone her to death. For she has committed an outrage in Israel by being promiscuous in her father’s house. So you must purge the evil from among you.
A ga-eduru nwaagbọghọ ahụ pụta nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nna ya, nʼebe ahụ ka ndị ikom obodo ya ga-anọ were nkume tugbuo ya. Nʼihi na o mere ihe ihere jọgburu onwe ya nʼIzrel, site nʼibi ndụ akwụna mgbe ọ ka nọ nʼụlọ nne ya na nna ya. Ị ghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ ahụ site nʼetiti unu.
22 If a man is found lying with another man’s wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die. You must purge the evil from Israel.
Ọ bụrụ na e jide nwoke ebe ya na nwunye onye ọzọ dina, ma nwoke ahụ dinara ya ma nwanyị ahụ o dinara aghaghị ịnwụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ị ga-ekpochapụ ihe ọjọọ a site nʼIzrel.
23 If there is a virgin pledged in marriage to a man, and another man encounters her in the city and sleeps with her,
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ na nwoke ọzọ edinakọọ nʼime obodo,
24 you must take both of them out to the gate of that city and stone them to death—the young woman because she did not cry out in the city, and the man because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you must purge the evil from among you.
ya na nwoke ahụ ka a ga-eduru gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo, were nkume tugbuo ha nʼebe ahụ, ka ha nwụọ, nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o tighị mkpu, ma nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o mebiela nwunye nwoke ibe ya na-achọ ịlụ. Unu aghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ site nʼetiti unu.
25 But if the man encounters a betrothed woman in the open country, and he overpowers her and lies with her, only the man who has done this must die.
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwoke ezute nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ nʼọhịa, were ike mee ka ha abụọ dina, ọ bụ naanị nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ.
26 Do nothing to the young woman, because she has committed no sin worthy of death. This case is just like one in which a man attacks his neighbor and murders him.
Aka nwaagbọghọ ahụ dị ọcha, ọ dịghị mmehie o mere nke ikpe ọnwụ ji adịrị ya, nʼihi na ọnọdụ ya dị ka ọnọdụ mmadụ ahụ onye iro ya bịakwasịrị na mberede gbuo ya.
27 When he found her in the field, the betrothed woman cried out, but there was no one to save her.
A pụrụ ị sị na nwaagbọghọ ahụ tiri mkpu ma ọ dịghị onye nọ ịnapụta ya.
28 If a man encounters a virgin who is not pledged in marriage, and he seizes her and lies with her, and they are discovered,
Ọ bụrụ na nwoke ọbụla ejiri ike jide nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke, nke nwoke ọbụla na-ekwebeghị nkwa ịlụ, mee ka ha abụọ dinaa,
29 then the man who lay with her must pay the young woman’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she must become his wife because he has violated her. He must not divorce her as long as he lives.
nwoke ahụ ga-akwụ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ iri shekel ọlaọcha ise. Ọ ga-alụkwa nwaagbọghọ ahụ nʼihi na o mebiela ya. Ọ gakwaghị achụpụ ya ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
30 A man is not to marry his father’s wife, so that he will not dishonor his father’s marriage bed.
Nwoke ọbụla agaghị alụ nwunye nna ya, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwunye nna ya. Ime ihe dị otu a bụ imerụ ihe ndina nna ya.
