Deuteronomy 25
1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
Raha misy olona manana ady ka mankeo amin’ ny fitsarana ary tsarain’ ny mpitsara, dia aoka hohamarininy izay marina ary hohelohiny kosa izay meloka.
2 And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
Ary raha tokony hokapohina ny meloka, dia aoka hampandrin’ ny mpitsara izy ka hokapohina eo anatrehany, ary hatao araka ny helony no isan’ ny kapoka hatao aminy.
3 Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then your brother should seem vile to you.
Hatramin’ ny efa-polo no kapoka azo hatao aminy, fa tsy hatao mihoatra; fandrao raha mihoatra noho izany, dia ho toy ny tsinontsinona eo imasonao ny rahalahinao.
4 You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the corn.
Aza manakombona ny vavan’ ny omby mively vary.
5 If brothers dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without to a stranger: her husband’s brother shall go in to her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband’s brother to her.
Raha misy mpirahalahy miara-monina, ary maty momba ny anankiray, dia aoka tsy hanambady vahiny any ivelany ny vadin’ ny maty; fa ny rahalahin’ ny vadiny ihany no aoka hanambady azy ka hitondra loloha azy.
6 And it shall be, that the firstborn which she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.
Ary ny lahimatoa izay haterany dia hitondra ny anaran’ ilay rahalahy izay efa maty, mba tsy ho faty maso eo amin’ ny Isiraely izy.
7 And if the man like not to take his brother’s wife, then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother.
Ary raha tsy sitra-dralehilahy ny hitondra loloha ny vadin-drahalahiny, dia aoka hankeo amin’ ny vavahady ho eo amin’ ny loholona ravehivavy ka hanao hoe: Ny rahalahin’ ny vadiko tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny, fa tsy mety mitondra loloha ahy.
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her;
Dia hantsoin’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna ralehilahy ka hadininy; ary raha mikiry izy ka manao hoe: Tsy sitrako ny hanambady azy,
9 Then shall his brother’s wife come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done to that man that will not build up his brother’s house.
dia hanatona azy eo anatrehan’ ny loholona ny vadin-drahalahiny ka hanala ny kapa amin’ ny tongo-dralehilahy, dia handrora amin’ ny tavany ka hiteny hoe: Toy izany no hatao amin’ izay olona tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that has his shoe loosed.
Ary ny anaran-dralehilahy dia hatao eo amin’ ny Isiraely hoe: Fianakavian’ ilay nalan-kapa.
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smites him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the secrets:
Raha misy olona miady, ary ny vadin’ ny anankiray manatona hamonjy ny vadiny amin’ ny tànan’ izay mamely azy, ary maninjitra ny tànany ka mandray azy an-kasarotana,
12 Then you shall cut off her hand, your eye shall not pity her.
dia hotapahinao ny tànany; tsy hiantra azy ny masonao.
13 You shall not have in your bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Aoka tsy hisy vato mahery sy reraka ao an-kitaponao.
14 You shall not have in your house divers measures, a great and a small.
Aoka tsy hisy famarana mihoatra sy latsaka ao an-tranonao.
15 But you shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shall you have: that your days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Vato feno lanja sady marina ary famarana tonga ohatra sady marina no aoka hotananao, mba ho maro andro ianao any amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao.
16 For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany zavatra izany, dia izay rehetra manao ny tsy marina.
17 Remember what Amalek did to you by the way, when you were come forth out of Egypt;
Tsarovy izay nataon’ ny Amalekita taminao teny an-dalana tamin’ ny nandehananareo avy tany Egypta,
18 How he met you by the way, and smote the hindmost of you, even all that were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he feared not God.
dia ny nitsenany anao teny an-dalana sy ny namelezany ny vodi-lalanao, dia izay rehetra tsy afaka teo aorianao, raha reraka sy sasatra ianao; fa tsy natahotra an’ Andriamanitra izy.
19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies round about, in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget it.
Ary rehefa omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao fitsaharana amin’ ny fahavalonao rehetra manodidina ianao any amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao ho lovanao, dia hovonoinao ny fahatsiarovana ny Amalekita tsy ho eo ambanin’ ny lanitra intsony: aza hadinoinao izany.
