Exodus 22
1 “If a man steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters or sells it, he must repay five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.
“Ka ngʼato okwalo rwath kata rombo kendo onege kata ouse, nyaka ochul dhok abich kuom rwath kendo kweth rombe angʼwen kuom rombo.
2 If a thief is caught breaking in and is beaten to death, no one shall be guilty of bloodshed.
“Ka jakuo ojuk kakwelo kendo ogoye mi otho, ngʼatno mogoye remo ok nodongʼ e wiye kuom remo mochwer;
3 But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.
to ka otimore bangʼ ka chiengʼ osetuch, to remo nodongʼ e wiye. “Jakuogno nyaka chul gima rom gi gima nokawono, to ka oonge gi gimoro, to nyaka use mondo ochulgo kuo mokwalono.
4 If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
“Ka chiayo mokwalno oyudego kangima bed ni en rwath kata punda kata rombo, nyaka ochul nyadiriyo.
5 If a man grazes his livestock in a field or vineyard and allows them to stray so that they graze in someone else’s field, he must make restitution from the best of his own field or vineyard.
“Ka ngʼato okwayo jambe e puodho kata e puoth mzabibu kendo oweyogi ma gi chodo kendo gikwayo e puoth ngʼato, nyaka ochul kawuok kuom puothe kata puothene mag olembe mabeyo.
6 If a fire breaks out and spreads to thornbushes so that it consumes stacked or standing grain, or the whole field, the one who started the fire must make full restitution.
“Ka mach omuoch mi olandore e bungu kendo owangʼo cham ma pod ochungʼ kata cham mobeti kata puodho duto, to ngʼatno mane omoko majno nyaka chul.
7 If a man gives his neighbor money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.
“Ka ngʼato omiyo wadgi fedha kata mwandu mondo okanne kendo okwalgi e od wadgino, to ka omak jakuogno, to nyaka chul nyadiriyo.
8 If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property.
To ka jakuo ok oyudi, wuon ot nyaka chopi e nyim jongʼad bura mondo gifweny ka dipo ni lwete omulo mwandu nyawadgi
9 In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any lost item that someone claims, ‘This is mine,’ both parties shall bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges find guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.
E weche duto mag bedo gi rwath, e yo ma ok owinjore kata punda kata rombo kata law, kata gimoro amora molal ma ngʼato diwachie ni, ‘Ma en mara,’ jogo duto nyaka kel wechegigo e nyim jongʼad bura. Ngʼat ma jongʼad bura oyudo ni nigi ketho, nyaka chul wadgino nyadiriyo.
10 If a man gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to be cared for by his neighbor, but it dies or is injured or stolen while no one is watching,
“Ka ngʼato omiyo wadgi punda kata rwath kata rombo kata chiayo moro amora mondo oritne maber to chiayono otho kata ohinyore kata okwal,
11 an oath before the LORD shall be made between the parties to determine whether or not the man has taken his neighbor’s property. The owner must accept the oath and require no restitution.
to wach mantie e kindgi ibiro losi kuom kwongʼruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ne wadgino nine ok omulo mwandu wadgi. Wuon chiayono nyaka yie gi wachno, kendo onge chudo manochiw.
12 But if the animal was actually stolen from the neighbor, he must make restitution to the owner.
To ka chiayono ne okwal koa kuom wadgi, to nyaka wadgino chule nengo moromo gi chiayono.
13 If the animal was torn to pieces, he shall bring it as evidence; he need not make restitution for the torn carcass.
Ka chiayono ne okidhi gi le mager, to enokel choke modongʼ kaka ranyisi kendo ok enochune mondo ochul chiayo mokidhino.
14 If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies while its owner is not present, he must make full restitution.
“Ka ngʼato oholo chiayo koa kuom wadgi kendo chiayono ohiny kata otho ka wuon-gi onge, nyaka ochul.
15 If the owner was present, no restitution is required. If the animal was rented, the fee covers the loss.
To ka wuon chiayo nigi chiayono, to jaholono ok nochun mondo ochul. Ka chiayono ne ichuloe gimoro, to pesa mochulno norom nyaka lalno.
16 If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged in marriage and sleeps with her, he must pay the full dowry for her to be his wife.
“Ka ngʼato osero nyako mapok osingi ne kend kendo oriwore kode nyaka ochul gir keny kendo nyakono nobed chiege.
17 If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, the man still must pay an amount comparable to the bridal price of a virgin.
Ka wuon-gi otamore chiwe ne ngʼatno, to ngʼatno pod nyaka chul mana gir keny.
18 You must not allow a sorceress to live.
“Kik uwe jajwok madhako bed mangima.
19 Whoever lies with an animal must surely be put to death.
“Ngʼato angʼata moriwore gi chiayo nyaka negi.
20 If anyone sacrifices to any god other than the LORD alone, he must be set apart for destruction.
“Ngʼato angʼata motimo misango ni nyasaye moro makmana Jehova Nyasaye nyaka negi.
21 You must not exploit or oppress a foreign resident, for you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
“Kik sand jadak kata loke misumba, nikech ne un jodak Misri.
22 You must not mistreat any widow or orphan.
“Kik uthir dhako ma chwore otho kata nyathi kich.
23 If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to Me in distress, I will surely hear their cry.
Ka utimo kamano ma giywakna, adier anawinj ywakgi
24 My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword; then your wives will become widows and your children will be fatherless.
Mirimba biro bedo mager kodu kendo abiro negou gi ligangla mondeu biro bedo monde liete kendo nyithindu biro bedo nyithi kiye.
25 If you lend money to one of My people among you who is poor, you must not act as a creditor to him; you are not to charge him interest.
“Ka iholo pesa ni achiel kuom joga ma jachan mantie e dieru, to kik uchal gi ji mamoko ma holo ji pesa kendo kik ukaw ohala kuomgi.
26 If you take your neighbor’s cloak as collateral, return it to him by sunset,
Ka ikawo law wadu kaka gir singo, to duoknego kapok chiengʼ opodho,
27 because his cloak is the only covering he has for his body. What else will he sleep in? And if he cries out to Me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.
nikech laweno kende ema oumorego. Ere gima donindie? Ka oywakna, to abiro winjo, nimar an Nyasaye ma jangʼwono.
28 You must not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.
“Kik iyany Nyasaye kata kwongʼo jatend jou.
29 You must not hold back offerings from your granaries or vats. You are to give Me the firstborn of your sons.
“Kik utamru golo chiwo mowuok e decheu kata kuonde kenou. “Nyaka umiya yawuotu makayo.
30 You shall do likewise with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay with their mothers for seven days, but on the eighth day you are to give them to Me.
Timuru machal kamano ni rwethu kod rombeu. Weuru gibed gi minegi kuom ndalo abiriyo, to chiengʼ mar aboro miyagiuru.
31 You are to be My holy people. You must not eat the meat of a mauled animal found in the field; you are to throw it to the dogs.
“Unubed joga maler. Kuom mano kik ucham ring chiayo mondiek onego; direuru ne guogi.
