< Leviticus 19 >

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị ya,
2 Speake vnto all the Congregation of the children of Israel, and say vnto them, Ye shalbe holy, for I the Lord your God am holy.
“Gwa ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile okwu sị ha: ‘Dịnụ nsọ, nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, dị nsọ.
3 Yee shall feare euery man his mother and his father, and shall keepe my Sabbaths: for I am the Lord your God.
“‘Onye ọbụla nʼime unu aghaghị ịsọpụrụ nne na nna ya, debekwa iwu m nyere maka ụbọchị izuike, nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
4 Ye shall not turne vnto idoles, nor make you molten gods: I am the Lord your God.
“‘Unu akpọla isiala nye arụsị, unu emekwarala onwe unu chi ndị e ji ọla kpụọ. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
5 And when yee shall offer a peace offering vnto the Lord, ye shall offer it freely.
“‘Mgbe unu ga-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja udo, soronụ ụkpụrụ m nyere unu chụọ ya, ka m nabata ya.
6 It shall be eaten the day yee offer it, or on the morowe: and that which remaineth vntill the third day, shalbe burnt in the fire.
Unu ga-eri ya nʼụbọchị ahụ unu chụrụ ya, maọbụ nʼụbọchị nke na-eso ụbọchị ahụ. Nke ọbụla fọdụrụ ruo ụbọchị nke atọ ka unu ga-esure ọkụ.
7 For if it be eaten the third day, it shall be vncleane, it shall not be accepted.
Ọ bụrụ na unu erie ya nʼụbọchị nke atọ ihe arụ ka ọ bụ. A gaghị anabata aja ọbụla unu ga-eri nʼụbọchị nke atọ.
8 Therefore he that eateth it, shall beare his iniquitie, because he hath defiled the halowed thing of the Lord, and that person shalbe cut off from his people.
Ikpe ga-ama onye ga-eri ya nʼụbọchị nke atọ nʼihi na o meela ka ihe nsọ Onyenwe anyị bụrụ ihe arụ. A ga-ekewapụ onye ahụ site nʼetiti ndị ya.
9 When yee reape the haruest of your land, ye shall not reape euery corner of your field, neither shalt thou gather the glainings of thy haruest.
“‘Mgbe unu na-ewe ihe ubi, unu ewechala ihe niile dị nʼakụkụ ubi niile, maọbụ chịkọtachaa irighiri ihe ubi niile fọdụrụ nʼala.
10 Thou shalt not gather the grapes of thy vineyarde cleane, neyther gather euery grape of thy vineyarde, but thou shalt leaue them for the poore and for the straunger: I am the Lord your God.
A ghọrọchakwala mkpụrụ vaịnị niile mịrị nʼelu vaịnị gị, maọbụ chịkọrọ mkpụrụ ndị dara nʼala. Hapụrụ ha ụmụ ogbenye na ndị ọbịa, nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
11 Ye shall not steale, neither deale falsely, neither lie one to another.
“‘Unu ezula ohi. “‘Unu aghala ụgha. “‘Unu aghọgbula ibe unu.
12 Also yee shall not sweare by my name falsely, neither shalt thou defile the name of thy God: I am the Lord.
“‘Unu aṅụla iyi ụgha, si otu a weta nkọcha nye aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
13 Thou shalt not do thy neighbour wrong, neither rob him. The workemans hire shall not abide with thee vntil the morning.
“‘Unu ejila ike pụnara onye agbataobi unu ihe ya, maọbụ zuru ihe o nwere nʼohi. “‘Kwụọnụ onye ọbụla unu goro ọrụ ụgwọ ọrụ ya ọsịịsọ. Unu echela ka chi bọọ tupu unu akwụọ ya ụgwọ ya.
14 Thou shalt not curse the deafe, neither put a stumbling blocke before the blinde, but shalt feare thy God: I am the Lord.
“‘Akọchala onye ntị chiri, edochikwarala onye ìsì ihe nʼụzọ. Tụọ egwu Chineke. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
15 Ye shall not doe vniustly in iudgement. Thou shalt not fauour the person of the poore, nor honour the person of the mightie, but thou shalt iudge thy neighbour iustly.
“‘Unu ekpela ikpe na-ezighị ezi, unu elela mmadụ anya nʼihu mgbe unu na-ekpe ikpe, ma onye unu na-ekpe ikpe ọ bụ ọgaranya maọbụ ogbenye. Kama kpeenụ ikpe kwụ ọtọ.
16 Thou shalt not walke about with tales among thy people. Thou shalt not stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am the Lord.
“‘Unu ejegharịla na-agbasa okwu nkwujọ nʼetiti ndị mmadụ. “‘Emela ihe ọbụla ga-ebutere onye agbataobi gị ọnwụ. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart, but thou shalt plainely rebuke thy neighbour, and suffer him not to sinne.
“‘Akpọla nwanne gị asị nʼime obi gị. Tụọ onye agbataobi gị mmehie ya nʼihu ya, ka ị ghara iketa oke nʼikpe ọmụma dịrị ya.
18 Thou shalt not auenge, nor be mindful of wrong against ye childre of thy people, but shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe: I am the Lord.
“‘Abọla ọbọ, ebukwala iro nʼobi megide onye ọbụla nʼetiti ndị gị. Kama hụ onye agbataobi gị nʼanya dịka i si hụ onwe gị nʼanya. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị unu.
19 Yee shall keepe mine ordinances. Thou shalt not let thy cattel gender with others of diuers kindes. Thou shalt not sowe thy fielde with mingled seede, neyther shall a garment of diuers thinges, as of linen and wollen come vpon thee.
“‘Unu ga-edebe iwu m niile. “‘Unu ejila otu ụdị anụ ụlọ unu na-agba ụdị anụ ụlọ ọzọ dị iche. “‘Akụla ụdị mkpụrụ abụọ nʼubi. “‘Eyila uwe e ji ụzọ ihe abụọ, dịka ajị anụ na ogho dụọ.
20 Whosoeuer also lyeth and medleth with a woman that is a bonde mayde, affianced to a husband, and not redeemed, nor freedome giuen her, she shalbe scourged, but they shall not die, because she is not made free.
“‘Ọ bụrụ na nwoke ọbụla akpọrọ nwaagbọghọ bụ ohu nwanyị nke a na-agbapụtabeghị, maọbụ nke na-enwerebeghị onwe ya, nke nwoke ọzọ chọrọ ịlụ, mee ka ha abụọ dinakọọ, a ga-ekpe ha abụọ ikpe nʼụlọikpe, ma a gaghị egbu ha, nʼihi na nwanyị ahụ abụghị onye nwe onwe ya.
21 And he shall bring for his trespasse offring vnto the Lord, at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, a ramme for a trespasse offering.
Ma nwoke ahụ ga-eweta aja ikpe ọmụma nye Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute. Ọ ga-abụkwa ebule ka ọ ga-eji chụọ aja ahụ.
22 Then the Priest shall make an atonement for him with the ramme of the trespasse offering before the Lord, concerning his sinne which he hath done, and pardon shalbe giuen him for his sinne which he hath committed.

23 Also when ye shall come into the land, and haue planted euery tree for meate, ye shall count the fruite thereof as vncircumcised: three yeere shall it be vncircumcised vnto you, it shall not be eaten:
“‘Mgbe unu batara nʼala ahụ kụọ mkpụrụ osisi dị iche iche, unu erila mkpụrụ osisi ahụ mịrị nʼafọ nke mbụ, ọ bụ ihe rụrụ arụ. Ruo nʼafọ nke atọ, ha bụ ihe rụrụ arụ. Unu agaghị eri ha.
24 But in the fourth yere all the fruite thereof shalbe holy to the praise of the Lord.
Nʼafọ nke anọ, mkpụrụ nke osisi ndị ahụ niile ga-amị dị nsọ. Unu ga-eji ya nye Onyenwe anyị onyinye otuto.
25 And in the fifth yeere shall ye eate of the fruite of it that it may yeelde to you the encrease thereof: I am the Lord your God.

26 Ye shall not eat the flesh with the blood, ye shall not vse witchcraft, nor obserue times.
“‘Unu erila anụ ọbụla ọbara dị nʼime ya. “‘Unu agbala afa maọbụ jụta mmụọ ase.
27 Ye shall not cut rounde the corners of your heades, neither shalt thou marre the tuftes of thy beard.
“‘Unu akpụchala agịrị isi dị gburugburu akụkụ isi unu, maọbụ chabie ọnụ ọnụ afụọnụ unu.
28 Ye shall not cut your flesh for the dead, nor make any print of a marke vpon you: I am the Lord,
“‘Unu akala ihe ọbụla nʼahụ unu, nʼihi onye nwụrụ anwụ maọbụ jiri mma ọkụ dee ihe nʼahụ unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
29 Thou shalt not make thy daughter common, to cause her to be a whore, least the lande also fall to whoredome, and the lande bee full of wickednesse.
“‘Emerụla nwa gị nwanyị site nʼịkwagide ya ka ọ bụrụ akwụna, ka ala unu ghara ijupụta nʼịgba akwụna na ihe ọjọọ dị iche iche.
30 Ye shall keepe my Sabbaths and reuerence my Sanctuarie: I am the Lord.

31 Ye shall not regarde them that worke with spirites, neither soothsayers: ye shall not seeke to them to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.
“‘Unu ejekwurula ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase maọbụ chọgaa ndị dibịa afa, nʼihi na unu ga-emerụ onwe site na ha. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
32 Thou shalt rise vp before the horehead, and honour the person of the old man, and dread thy God: I am the Lord.
“‘Bilienụ ọtọ nʼihu okenye, sọpụrụnụ ndị okenye, ma tụọnụ egwu Chineke unu. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
33 And if a stranger soiourne with thee in your lande, ye shall not vexe him.
“‘Mgbe onye ọbịa soro unu biri nʼala unu, unu emejọla ya.
34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you, shalbe as one of your selues, and thou shalt loue him as thy selfe: for ye were strangers in the lad of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Mesonụ onye ọbịa bi nʼetiti unu mmeso dịka ọ bụ otu nʼime ndị amụrụ nʼala. Hụnụ ha nʼanya dịka unu si hụ onwe unu, nʼihi na o nwere oge unu bụ ọbịa nʼala Ijipt. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
35 Ye shall not doe vniustly in iudgement, in line, in weight, or in measure.
“‘Unu ejila ihe ọtụtụ aghụghọ mgbe unu na-atụ ihe dị ogologo, maọbụ ihe dị arọ, maọbụ ihe dị ukwuu,
36 You shall haue iust ballances, true weightes, a true Ephah, and a true Hin. I am the Lord your God, which haue brought you out of the lande of Egypt.

37 Therefore shall ye obserue all mine ordinances, and all my iudgements, and doe them: I am the Lord.
“‘Debenụ ụkpụrụ m niile, na iwu m niile, gbasoonụ ha. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.’”
