Exodus 22
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
Si yon nonm ta vòlè yon bèf oswa yon mouton epi kòche li oswa vann li, li va peye senk bèf pou bèf la, e kat mouton pou mouton an.
2 If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
Si vòlè a vin kenbe pandan l ap fonse antre, e bat jis li vin mouri, p ap gen koupabilite pou san li sou kont mèt kay la.
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
Men si solèy la gen tan leve sou li, va genyen koupabilite san sou li. Li va anverite peye dedonmajman an. Si li pa posede anyen, alò, y ap vann li pou vòl sa a.
4 If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or donkey, or sheep; he shall restore double.
Si sa li te vòlè a twouve nan posesyon li, menm si se yon bourik, oswa yon mouton, li va peye li doub.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
Si yon mesye kite bèt li yo manje nan yon chan, oswa yon jaden jiskaske jaden an fini nèt, e kite bèt li lage pou li manje nan chan a yon lòt moun, li va peye dedonmajman an soti nan pi bon pati tè li, ak meyè pati chan rezen li lan.
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of sheaves, or the standing grain, or the field, be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
Si yon dife vin parèt, e kouri jwenn bwa pikan yo, jis rive sereyal k ap rasanble nan chan an, oswa sereyal chan an li menm pran dife, sila ki te limen dife a va anverite peye.
7 If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
Si yon mesye bay vwazen li lajan oswa byen li pou kenbe pou li, e li vòlè soti lakay mesye a, depi vòlè a kenbe, li va peye doub.
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.
Si yo pa jwenn vòlè a, alò, mèt kay la va parèt devan jij yo pou konstate si li te mete men li sou byen vwazen li an.
9 For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
Pou chak vyòl konfyans, kèlkeswa ke se pou bèf, pou bourik, pou mouton, pou rad, oswa pou nenpòt bagay ki pèdi, si yon moun kapab di: “Sila se pa m nan!”, yo toude va vini devan jij yo. Konsa, sila ke jij yo kondane a va peye doub a vwazen li an.
10 If a man deliver unto his neighbour a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
Si yon mesye bay vwazen li yon bourik, yon bèf, yon mouton, oswa nenpòt bèt pou kenbe pou li, epi li vin mouri, oswa blese, oswa pouse ale lè moun pa wè,
11 Then shall an oath of Yhwh be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
yon sèman devan SENYÈ a va fèt pa yo dèske li pa t mete men l sou byen a vwazen li. Konsa, mèt li va aksepte li, e li p ap oblije fè peye dedonmajman.
12 And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
Men si li te vrèman vòlè li, li va peye dedonmajman a mèt li.
13 If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
Si li chire an mòso, kite sa mennen kòm evidans. Li p ap peye dedonmajman pou sa ki chire an moso a.
14 And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
Si yon mesye prete yon bagay nan men vwazen li, e sa vin donmaje oswa mouri pandan mèt li pa la, li va peye tout rekonpans.
15 But if the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
Si mèt li la avè l, li p ap peye rekonpans. Si se lwaye, sa te vini ak frè lwaye li.
16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
Si yon mesye sedwi yon vyèj ki poko fiyanse, e li vin kouche avèk li, li dwe peye li yon frè fiyanse pou l ka vin madanm li.
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Si papa li refize nèt pou ba li fi li, li va peye lajan ki menm fòs avèk frè fiyanse a pou vyèj yo.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
Ou pa pou kite yon majisyen viv.
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
Nenpòt moun ki kouche avèk yon bèt, va asireman mete a lanmò.
20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto Yhwh only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
Sila ki fè sakrifis a nenpòt dye, sof ke SENYÈ a sèl, va detwi nèt.
21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Ou pa pou fè mal a yon etranje, ni oprime li, paske se te etranje nou te ye nan peyi Égypte la.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
Ou pa pou oprime okenn vèv, ni òfelen.
23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
Si ou oprime li, e li kriye ban Mwen, Mwen va anverite tande kri li;
24 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
epi kòlè Mwen va vin ogmante. Mwen va touye ou avèk nepe, e madanm ou yo va vin vèv, e pitit ou yo va vin san papa.
25 If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
Si ou prete lajan a pèp Mwen an, a malere yo pami nou yo, ou pa pou aji kòm kreditè anvè li. Ou pa pou mande frè enterè.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour’s raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
Si ou janmen pran manto vwazen ou kòm garanti, fòk ou remèt li li avan solèy la kouche,
27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
paske se sa sèl ki kouvri li. Se manto pou kò li. Kisa ankò li kab sèvi pou l dòmi? Epi li va rive ke lè li kriye fò, Mwen va tande li, paske Mwen ranpli avèk mizerikòd.
28 Thou shalt not blaspheme God, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
Ou pa pou modi Bondye, ni modi yon chèf pèp ou.
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
Ou pa pou fè reta avèk ofrann ki sòti nan rekòlt la avèk diven an. Premye ne nan fis ou yo, ou va ban Mwen l.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
Ou va fè menm bagay la avèk bèf ou yo, ak mouton ou yo. Li va rete avèk manman l pandan sèt jou, e nan uityèm jou a ou va ban Mwen li.
31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
Nou va dèzòm ki sen pou Mwen; konsa, nou p ap manje okenn chè ki chire an mòso nan chan. Nou va jete li bay chen.
