Exodus 23
1 Thou shalt not accept a false report; extend not thy hand to the wicked, to be an unrighteous witness.
Ko minday tolom-boetse, ko manò-pitàñe ami’ty tsereheñe hitaroña’o entam-bìlañe.
2 Thou shalt not follow the multitude for evil; neither shalt thou answer in a cause, to go after the multitude to pervert [judgment].
Ko orihe’o ty maro hikabo-draha; naho ko mireketse amy màroy handesa’o talily mampiolake ty hato;
3 Neither shalt thou favour a poor man in his cause.
vaho ko osihe’o ami’ty kabò’e ty rarake.
4 — If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt certainly bring it back to him.
Ihe mifanojeha ami’ty añomben-drafelahi’o, ndra ami’ty borìke’e nandifike, le tsi-mete tsy hampolia’o.
5 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under its burden, beware of leaving [it] to him: thou shalt certainly loosen [it] with him.
Naho mifanjò ami’ty borì’ i mpalaiñ’ azoy tafahohok’ ambane’ o kilanka’eo, ko rioñeñe, fa tsi-mahay tsy holora’o hampibalak’ aze.
6 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
Ko mengohe’o ty fizakañe i rarake ama’oy amy naneseha’ey.
7 Thou shalt keep far from the cause of falsehood; and the innocent and righteous slay not; for I will not justify the wicked.
Mihankaña ami’ty raha tsy to; ko mañoho-doza amo vantañeo naho amo vañoñeo. Fe tsy ho meako to i tsereheñey.
8 And thou shalt take no bribe; for the bribe blindeth those whose eyes are open, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
Ko mandrambe vokañe, fa mahagoa ty mahavazoho ty ravoravo, naho mañamengoke ty saontsi’ o mahitio.
9 And the stranger thou shalt not oppress; for ye know the spirit of the stranger, for ye have been strangers in the land of Egypt.
Ko forekeke’o ty renetane amy te fohi’ areo ty tron-drenetane, fa ni-renetane an-tane Mitsraime añe ka nahareo.
10 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and gather in its produce;
Enen-taoñe ty hambolea’o ty tane’o hanontoñe ty voka’e,
11 but in the seventh thou shalt let it rest and lie [fallow], that the poor of thy people may eat [of it]; and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thine olive-tree.
fe ko irangàm-pangaly amy faha-fitoy, hitofà’e, hikamà’ ondaty rarake ama’oo; le ho hane’ o bibin-kivokeo ty nasisa. Ampanahafo amy zay ty tanem-balobo’o naho ty golobon-olive’o.
12 — Six days thou shalt do thy work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger may be refreshed.
Eneñ’ andro ty hitoloña’o, le hitofa ami’ty andro fahafito, soa te hitofa ka ty añombe’o naho ty borìke’o vaho ho haha ka ty anam-pitoro’o ampela naho ty renetane.
13 And ye shall be on your guard as to everything that I have said unto you; and shall make no mention of the name of other gods — it shall not be heard in thy mouth.
Ambeno i vinolako rezay, le ko toñone’ areo ty añara’ ze o ndrahare ila’e zao vaho ko apo’o ho janjiñeñe am-palie’o.
14 Thrice in the year thou shalt celebrate a feast to me.
In-telo ami’ty taoñe ty hanoa’o takataka amako:
15 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread, (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I have commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt; and none shall appear in my presence empty; )
Hambena’o ty Sabadidake Mofo po-Dalivay; fito andro ty hikama’o mofo po-dalivay, amy nandiliako azoy, amy namantañako aze am-bolan-Kofahofay, fa ama’e ty nienga’o i Mitsraime: vaho tsy hatrefeñe an-tañam-polo iraho;
16 and the feast of harvest, the first-fruits of thy labours which thou hast sown in the field, and the feast of in-gathering, at the end of the year, when thou gatherest in thy labours out of the field.
le i Sabadidam-pitatahañey, ty lengom-boa’ o fitoloña’oo, o nambole’o antetekeo; vaho i Takataka-Panontonañey, amy figadoñan-taoñe anontona’o sabo an-tete’o ao.
17 Three times in the year all thy males shall appear in the presence of the Lord Jehovah.
Homb’ añatrefa’ Iehovà Talè in-telo ami’ty taoñe ze hene lahilahy.
18 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my feast remain all night until the morning.
Ko atraok’ an-dio soroñeñe amako ty mofo aman-dalivay le tsy hampialeñeñe ho sisaeñe hamaray ty havondra’ o famantañakoo.
19 The first of the first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
Aseseo mb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ty loha’e, toe ty lengom-boan-tane’o. Ko ahandroeñe an-drononon-drene’e ty anak’ose.
20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee to the place that I have prepared.
Ingo, hampiaolòeko ty anjely hañimb’ azo amy lalañey, hanese azo mb’ amy tane nihalankañekoy.
21 Be careful in his presence, and hearken unto his voice: do not provoke him, for he will not forgive your transgressions; for my name is in him.
Itaò vaho oriho ty fiarañanaña’e, le ko iolañe, toe tsy hapo’e o fandilara’ areoo fa ama’e ty añarako.
22 But if thou shalt diligently hearken unto his voice, and do all that I shall say, then I will be an enemy to thine enemies, and an adversary to thine adversaries.
Aa naho toe ambena’o i fiarañanaña’ey naho anoe’o o itaroñako iabio, le ho rafelahiko o rafelahi’oo vaho hifankalaiñe amo mpifankalaiñe ama’o iraho.
23 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites and the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites, the Hivites and the Jebusites; and I will cut them off.
Le hiaolo azo i Sorotàkoy hanese azo mb’ amo nte-Emoreo naho amo nte-Kheteo naho amo nte-Perizeo naho amo nte-Kanàneo naho amo nte-Kiveo vaho amo nte-Iebòseo mb’eo, fa haitoako.
24 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their deeds; but thou shalt utterly destroy them, and utterly shatter their statues.
Ko milokoloko amo ‘ndrahare’eo, le ko itoroña’o, ndra mitsikombe o sata’eo; fa toe ho fonga rotsahe’o vaho ho firae’o o hazomanga’eo.
25 And ye shall serve Jehovah your God; and he shall bless thy bread and thy water; and I will take sickness away from thy midst.
Toroño t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, le ho tahie’e ty mahakama’o naho ty rano’o vaho hampihankàñeko ze atao hasilofañe añivo’o ao,
26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land; the number of thy days will I fulfil.
le tsy ho aman-drakemba hañafake ndra ty ho betsiterak’ an-tane’o ao; vaho ho henefeko o andro’oo.
27 I will send my fear before thee, and confound every people to which thou comest, and will make all thine enemies turn their back to thee.
Hampihitrifeko hiaolo azo ty fihembañañe ahy, le hampitsamborohotaheko iaby t’indaty hivotraha’o vaho fonga hampiambohoeko azo o rafelahi’oo.
28 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.
Hiraheko fanene-bola hiaolo azo hampibaibay o nte-Kiveo naho o nte-Kanàneo naho o nte-Kheteo aolo’o ey.
29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year: lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
F’ie tsy hataoko soik’ ami’ty taoñe raike tsy mone hangoakoake i taney vaho hifamorohotse ama’o o biby hakoo.
30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou art fruitful, and possess the land.
Ho roaheko boak’ ama’o erike ampara’ te nihamaro irehe hahalova i taney.
31 And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the river; for I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, that thou mayest dispossess them from before thee.
Hajadoko boak’ amy Riake Menay pak’ an-dRia’ o nte-Pilistio ty efe-tane’o naho boak’ amy fatrambeiy pak’amy sakay; le haseseko am-pità’ areo ty mpimoneñe amy taney haronje’o mb’aolo’o mb’eo.
32 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
Tsy hifañina ama’e ndra amo ndrahare’eo irehe.
33 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me; for if thou serve their gods, it is sure to be a snare unto thee.
Tsy himoneña’e ty tane’o, hera hampanan-kakeo azo amako, fa naho toroñe’o o ‘ndrahare’eo, le toe ho fandrik’ ama’o.
