< Deuteronomy 21 >

1 Then there shall be found in the land, which the Lord thy God will give thee, the corpse of a man slain, and it is not known who is guilty of the murder,
No adda nasarakanyo a natay iti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a tagikuaenyo, a nakadasay iti talon, ken saan nga ammo no siasino ti nangdarup kenkuana;
2 Thy ancients and judges shall go out, and shall measure from the place where the body lieth the distance of every city round about:
masapul ngarud a rummuar dagiti panglakayen ken ukomyo, ket masapul a rukodenda dagiti siudad iti aglawlaw ti napapatay.
3 And the ancients of that city which they shall perceive to be nearer than the rest, shall take a heifer of the herd, that hath not drawn in the yoke, nor ploughed the ground,
Ket ti kaasitgan a siudad iti napapatay a tao—masapul a mangala dagiti panglakayen ditoy iti bumalasang a baka manipud iti arban, maysa a saan pay a pulos a nagtrabaho, saan pay a naipako.
4 And they shall bring her into a rough and stony valley, that never was ploughed, nor sown: and there they shall strike off the head of the heifer:
Masapul nga isalog dagiti panglakayen iti dayta a siudad ti bumalasang a baka iti tanap nga adda agay-ayus a danum, maysa a tanap a saan pay a naarado wenno namulaan, ket masapul a matukkol ti tengnged ti bumalasang a baka idiay tanap.
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come, whom the Lord thy God hath chosen to minister to him, and to bless in his name, and that by their word every matter should be decided, and whatsoever is clean or unclean should be judged.
Masapul a mapan dagiti papadi, dagiti kaputotan ni Levi; ta pinili ida ni Yahweh a Diosyo tapno agserbi kenkuana ken mangbendision kadagiti tattao iti nagan ni Yahweh; denggenyo dagiti balakadda, ta ti saoda ti pangngeddengto iti tunggal riri ken kaso iti panagaapa.
6 And the ancients of that city shall come to the person slain, and shall wash their hands over the heifer that was killed in the valley,
Amin a panglakayen iti siudad a kaasitgan iti napapatay a tao ket masapul a buggoanda dagiti imada iti rabaw ti bumalasang a baka a natukkol ti tengngedna idiay tanap;
7 And shall say: Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it.
ket masapul a sumungbatda iti kaso ket kunaenda, 'Saan a pinagsayasay dagiti imami daytoy a dara, wenno nakita dagiti matami daytoy.
8 Be merciful to thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, O Lord, and lay not innocent blood to their charge, in the midst of thy people Israel. And the guilt of blood shall be taken from them:
Pakawanem, O Yahweh, dagiti tattaom nga Israel, a sinubbotmo, ken saanmo nga ikabil ti basol iti panagsayasay ti dara nga awan basolna iti tengnga dagiti tattaom nga Israel.' Ket mapakawandanto iti panagsayasay ti dara.
9 And thou shalt be free from the innocent’s blood, that was shed, when thou shalt have done what the Lord hath commanded thee.
Iti kastoy a wagas, ikkatenyonto ti awan basolna a dara iti nagtetengngaanyo, no aramidenyo ti nalinteg iti imatang ni Yahweh.
10 If thou go out to fight against thy enemies, and the Lord thy God deliver them into thy hand, and thou lead them away captives,
Inton mapanka makigubat kadagiti kabusormo ket pagballigiennaka ni Yahweh a Diosmo ken impaiturayanna ida kenka, ket masapul nga alaem ida a kas balud.
11 And seest in the number of the captives a beautiful woman, and lovest her, and wilt have her to wife,
No adda makitam a napintas a babai kadagiti balud, ket adda tarigagaymo kenkuana ken kayatmo isuna nga alaen a kas asawam,
12 Thou shalt bring her into thy house: and she shall shave her hair, and pare her nails,
mabalinmo ngarud nga iyawid isuna iti balaymo, kuskosannanto ti ulona ken putdanna dagiti kukona.
13 And shall put off the raiment, wherein she was taken: and shall remain in thy house, and mourn for her father and mother one month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and shalt sleep with her, and she shall be thy wife.
Ussobennanto dagiti pagan-anay a suotna idi naala isuna a kas balud, ket agtalinaedto isuna iti balaymo ken dung-awanna ti ama ken inana iti makabulan. Kalpasan dayta, mabalinmon a kaiddaen isuna ket agbalinkan nga asawana ken agbalin isunan nga asawam.
14 Rut if afterwards she please thee not, thou shalt let her go free, but thou mayst not sell her for money nor oppress her by might because thou hast humbled her.
Ngem no saankan a maragsakan kenkuana, palubosam ngarud isuna a mapan iti kayatna a papanan. Ngem masapul a saanmo a pulos nga ilaklako isuna iti kuarta, ken masapul a saanmo isuna nga ibilang a kasla maysa a tagabu, gapu ta imbabainmo isuna.
15 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and the other hated, and they have had children by him, and the son of the hated be the firstborn,
No addaan ti maysa a lalaki iti dua nga asawa ket maay-ayat ti maysa ken magurgura ti maysa, ket agpadada a nangipasngay kenkuana iti annak— ti maay-ayat nga asawa ken ti magurgura nga asawa—no ti inauna nga anak ket anak ti magurgura nga asawa,
16 And he meaneth to divide his substance among his sons: he may not make the son of the beloved the firstborn, and prefer him before the son of the hated.
ket iti aldaw nga ipatawid ti lalaki kadagiti annakna dagiti sanikuana, saanna a mabalin a pagbalinen nga inauna ti anak ti maay-ayat nga asawa sakbay ti anak ti magurgura nga asawa, ti pudno nga inauna nga anak.
17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, and shall give him a double portion of all he hath: for this is the first of his children, and to him are due the first birthrights.
Ngem ketdi, masapul a bigbigenna ti inauna nga anak, ti anak ti magurgura nga asawa babaen iti pannangtedna iti mamindua a bingay iti amin a sanikuana; ta dayta nga anak ti rugi ti pigsana; ti karbengan ti inauna nga anak ket kukuana.
18 If a man have a stubborn and unruly son, who will not hear the commandments of his father or mother, and being corrected, slighteth obedience:
No addaan ti maysa a tao iti anak a natangken ti ulona ken nasukir a saan nga agtulnog iti timek ti ama wenno ti inana, ken uray no tubtubngarenda isuna, saanna ida a dengdenggen;
19 They shall take him and bring him to the ancients of his city, and to the gate of judgment,
masapul ngarud a tenglen isuna ti ama ken inana ket ipanda kadagiti panglakayen iti siudadna ken iti ruangan ti siudadna.
20 And shall say to them: This our son is rebellious and stubborn, he slighteth hearing our admonitions, he giveth himself to revelling, and to debauchery and banquetings:
Masapul a kunaenda kadagiti panglakayen iti siudadna, 'Natangken ti ulona ken nasukir daytoy nga anakmi a lalaki; saanna a tungtungpalen ti timekmi; narawet ken mammartek isuna.'
21 The people of the city shall stone him: and he shall die, that you may take away the evil out of the midst of you, and all Israel hearing it may be afraid.
Ket masapul a batoen isuna dagiti amin a lallaki iti siudadna agingga a matay; ket maikkatyonto ti kinadakes kadakayo. Mangngegto amin nga Israelita daytoy ket agbutengda.
22 When a man hath committed a crime for which he is to be punished with death, and being condemned to die is hanged on a gibbet:
No nakaaramid ti maysa a lalaki iti basol a maikari iti pannakatay ken mapapatay isuna, ket ibitinyo isuna iti kayo,
23 His body shall not remain upon the tree, but shall be buried the same day: for he is accursed of God that hangeth on a tree: and thou shalt not defile thy land, which the Lord thy God shall give thee in possession.
masapul ngarud a saan nga agpatpatnag ti bagina iti kayo. Ngem ketdi, masapul nga itabonyo isuna iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw; ta inlunod ti Dios ti siasinoman a naibitin. Tungpalenyo daytoy a bilin tapno saanyo a tulawan ti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a kas tawidyo.
