Deuteronomy 25
1 When there shall be strife betweene men, and they shall come vnto iudgement, and sentence shall be giuen vpon them, and the righteous shall be iustified, and the wicked condemned,
Mgbe esemokwu dị nʼetiti ndị mmadụ, ha ga-ebuga ikpe ha nʼụlọikpe ebe ndị ikpe ga-elenye anya nʼikpe ahụ, maa onye ajọ omume ikpe, meekwa ka onye aka ya dị ọcha nwere onwe ya.
2 Then if so be the wicked be worthy to bee beaten, the iudge shall cause him to lie downe, and to be beaten before his face, according to his trespasse, vnto a certaine nomber.
Ọ bụrụkwa na onye ikpe mara kwesiri ka apịa ya ụtarị, onye ọkaikpe ga-eme ka onye ahụ dinaa ala nʼihu ya, ka apịakwa ya ọnụọgụgụ ụtarị kwesiri ajọ omume ya,
3 Fortie stripes shall he cause him to haue and not past, lest if he should exceede and beate him aboue that with many stripes, thy brother should appeare despised in thy sight.
ma agaghị eti ya karịa ọnụ ụtarị iri anọ. Ọ bụrụ na e tie onye ahụ ikpe mara ọnụ ụtarị karịrị nke a, ọ ga-abụ onye e leliri anya nʼihu ndị Izrel ibe ya.
4 Thou shalt not mousell the oxe that treadeth out the corne.
Mgbe ehi na-azọcha ọka, ejila ihe kechie ya ọnụ.
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them dye and haue no sonne, the wife of the dead shall not marry without: that is, vnto a stranger, but his kinseman shall goe in vnto her, and take her to wife, and doe the kinsemans office to her.
Ọ bụrụ na nwoke anwụọ na-amụtaghị nwa, nwunye ya ahụ agaghị alụ di nʼama, kama nwanne nwoke di ya ga-alụrụ ya, ha ga-edinakọkwa.
6 And the first borne which she beareth, shall succeede in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.
Nwa nwoke mbụ nwanyị ahụ ga-amụ ga-aza aha nwoke ahụ nwụrụ anwụ, ka a ghara ihichapụ aha ya nʼala Izrel.
7 And if the man will not take his kinsewoman, then let his kinsewoman goe vp to the gate vnto the Elders, and say, My kinsman refuseth to rayse vp vnto his brother a name in Israel: hee will not doe the office of a kinsman vnto me.
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwoke ahụ ajụ ịlụ nwunye nwanne ya nwụrụ anwụ, nwanyị ahụ ga-ejekwuru ndị okenye obodo ahụ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama, gwa ha sị, “Nwanne di m ajụla ime ka aha nwanne ya nwoke dịgide nʼIzrel. O kweghị ịrụ ọrụ kwesiri nwanne di nʼebe m nọ.”
8 Then the Elders of his citie shall call him, and commune with him: if he stand and say, I wil not take her,
Ndị okenye obodo ga-akpọ ya, dụọ ya ọdụ. Ọ bụrụ na ọ nọgide jụ sị, “Achọghị m ịlụ ya,”
9 Then shall his kinswoman come vnto him in the presence of the Elders, and loose his shooe from his foote, and spit in his face, and answere, and say, So shall it be done vnto that man, that will not buylde vp his brothers house.
nwanyị ahụ ga-ejekwuru ya nʼihu ndị okenye, tọpụ akpụkpọụkwụ o yi nʼụkwụ aka nri ya, bụọ ya asụ nʼihu, sị ya, “Otu a ka a na-eme nwoke ọbụla jụrụ iwuli ụlọ nwanne ya nwoke.”
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him whose shooe is put off.
A ga-ama ahịrị ya nʼIzrel dịka, “Ezinaụlọ nwoke ahụ e sitere nʼụkwụ ya yipụ akpụkpọụkwụ ya.”
11 When men striue together, one with another, if the wife of the one come neere, for to ridde her husband out of the handes of him that smiteth him, and put foorth her hand, and take him by his priuities,
Mgbe ndị ikom abụọ na-alụ ọgụ, ọ bụrụ na nwunye otu nʼime ha abịa ịnapụta di ya site nʼaka onye na-eti ya ihe, ma nwanyị ahụ esetipụ aka jide nwoke ahụ nʼamụ ya,
12 Then thou shalt cut off her hande: thine eye shall not spare her.
a ga-egbupụ aka nwanyị ahụ. Ebere adịghị ya.
13 Thou shalt not haue in thy bagge two maner of weightes, a great and a small,
Enwela ụzọ ihe ọtụtụ abụọ nʼime akpa gị, nke dị arọ, na nke na-adịghị arọ.
14 Neither shalt thou haue in thine house diuers measures, a great and a small:
Enwela ụdị ihe ọtụtụ abụọ nʼụlọ gị, nke ukwu na nke nta.
15 But thou shalt haue a right and iust weight: a perfite and a iust measure shalt thou haue, that thy dayes may be lengthened in the land, which the Lord thy God giueth thee.
Ị ghaghị inwe ezi ihe ọtụtụ na nke zuru ezu. Nke a ga-eme ka ndụ gị dị ogologo, dịkwa mma nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị.
16 For all that doe such things, and all that doe vnrighteously, are abomination vnto the Lord thy God.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị kpọrọ onye ọbụla na-eme ihe ndị a asị, bụ onye ọbụla na-aghọ aghụghọ.
17 Remember what Amalek did vnto thee by the way, when ye were come out of Egypt:
Cheta ihe ndị Amalek mere gị nʼụzọ mgbe i si nʼIjipt na-apụta.
18 How he met thee by ye way, and smote ye hindmost of you, all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast fainted and weary, and he feared not God.
Chetakwa na ha lụsoro gị ọgụ mgbe ike gwụrụ gị, mgbe ị dara mba, tigbuo ndị niile ji nwayọọ na-abịa nʼazụ. Ha atụkwaghị egwu Chineke.
19 Therefore, when the Lord thy God hath giuen thee rest from all thine enemies round about in the land, which the Lord thy God giueth thee for an inheritance to possesse it, then thou shalt put out the remembrance of Amalek from vnder heauen: forget not.
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị mere ka i nwere onwe gị site nʼaka ndị iro gbara gị gburugburu, mgbe o mere ka i zuru ike nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị dịka ihe nketa, ime ka i nweta ya, ị ghaghị igbuchapụ ndị Amalek, ka ha bụrụ ndị a na-agaghị echetakwa ọzọ nʼokpuru eluigwe. Echefukwala ime otu a.
