< Deuteronomy 22 >
1 If you see your brother's ox or his sheep wandering, do not go by without helping, but take them back 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 their owner is not near, or if you are not certain who he is, then take the beast to your house and keep it till its owner comes in search of it, and then you are to give it back 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 Do the same with his ass or his robe or anything which has gone from your brother's keeping and which you have come across: do not keep it to yourself.
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 ox or his ass falling down on the road, do not go by without giving him help in lifting it up again.
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 It is not right for a woman to be dressed in man's clothing, or for a man to put on a woman's robe: whoever does such things is disgusting 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 by chance you see a place which a bird has made for itself in a tree or on the earth, with young ones or eggs, and the mother bird seated on the young ones or on the eggs, do not take the mother bird 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 See that you let the mother bird go, but the young ones you may take; so it will be well for you and your life will be long.
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 are building a house, make a railing for the roof, so that the blood of any man falling from it will not come on your house.
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 have your vine-garden planted with two sorts of seed: or all of it may become a loss, the seed you have put in as well as the increase.
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 do your ploughing with an ox and an ass yoked together.
Ejikọla ehi na ịnyịnya ibu maka ịdọ ihe e ji akọ ala ubi.
11 Do not have clothing made of two sorts of thread, wool and linen together.
Eyila uwe e ji ụzọ ihe abụọ kpaa, dịka uwe ajị anụ na ogho ọcha kpaa.
12 On the four edges of your robe, with which your body is covered, put ornaments of twisted threads.
Ị ga-akpanyere onwe gị ihe ogho akpara akpa, nʼakụkụ anọ nke uwe mgbokwasị gị.
13 If any man takes a wife, and having had connection with her, has no delight in her,
Ọ bụrụ na nwoke alụọ nwaagbọghọ, mesie mgbe o dinakwuru ya kpebie nʼobi ya na ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya ọzọ,
14 And says evil things about her and gives her a bad name, saying, I took this woman, and when I had connection with her it was clear to me that 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 let the girl's father and mother put before the responsible men of the town, in the public place, signs that the girl was a virgin:
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 let the girl's father say to the responsible men, I gave my daughter to this man for his wife, but he has no love for 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 put shame on her, saying that she is not a virgin; but here is the sign that she is a virgin. Then they are to put her clothing before the responsible men of the town.
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 responsible men of the town are to give the man his punishment;
Ndị okenye obodo ahụ ga-akpọrọ nwoke nyekwa ya ahụhụ.
19 They will take from him a hundred shekels of silver, which are to be given to the father of the girl, because he has given an evil name to a virgin of Israel: she will go on being his wife, he may never put her away all his life.
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 But if what he has said is true, and she is seen to be not a virgin,
Ma ọ bụrụ na ebubo nwoke ahụ bụ eziokwu, na achọpụtaghị ihe gosiri na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amaghị nwoke.
21 Then they are to make the girl come to the door of her father's house and she will be stoned to death by the men of the town, because she has done evil and put shame on Israel, by acting as a loose woman in her father's house: so you are to put away 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 taken in the act of going in to a married woman, the two of them, the man as well as the woman, are to be put to death: so you are to put away 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 a young virgin has given her word to be married to a man, and another man meeting her in the town, has connection with her;
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ na nwoke ọzọ edinakọọ nʼime obodo,
24 Then you are to take the two of them to the doorway of the town, and have them stoned to death; the young virgin, because she gave no cry for help, though it was in the town, and the man, because he has put shame on his neighbour's wife: so you are to put away 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, meeting such a virgin in the open country, takes her by force, then only the man is to be put to death;
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 Nothing is to be done to the virgin, because there is no cause of death in her: it is the same as if a man made an attack on his neighbour and put him to death:
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 For he came across her in the open country, and there was no one to come to the help of the virgin in answer to her cry.
A pụrụ ị sị na nwaagbọghọ ahụ tiri mkpu ma ọ dịghị onye nọ ịnapụta ya.
28 If a man sees a young virgin, who has not given her word to be married to anyone, and he takes her by force and has connection with her, and discovery is made of it;
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 will have to give the virgin's father fifty shekels of silver and make her his wife, because he has put shame on her; he may never put her away all his life.
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 may not take his father's wife or have sex relations with a woman who is his father's.
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.
