< Deuteronomy 17 >
1 “You do not sacrifice to your God YHWH ox or sheep in which there is a blemish—any bad thing; for it [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
Kada ku miƙa wa Ubangiji Allahnku, saniya ko tunkiyar da take da wani lahani, ko naƙasa a cikinta, gama wannan zai zama abar ƙyama gare shi.
2 When there is found in your midst, in one of your cities which your God YHWH is giving to you, a man or a woman who does evil in the eyes of your God YHWH by transgressing His covenant,
In an sami wani namiji ko ta mace mai zama a cikinku, a ɗaya daga biranen da Ubangiji ya ba ku yana aikata abin da yake mugu a gaban Ubangiji Allahnku ta wurin karya alkawarinsa,
3 and he goes and serves other gods, and bows himself to them, and to the sun, or to the moon, or to any of the host of the heavens, which I have not commanded,
wanda ya saba wa umarnina, har ya yi sujada ga waɗansu alloli, yana rusuna musu, ko ga rana, ko ga wata, ko kuwa ga taurarin sama,
4 and it has been declared to you, and you have heard, and have searched diligently, and behold, [if] truth, the thing is established; this abomination has been done in Israel—
in kuwa aka faɗa muku wannan, to, dole a bincika sosai. In kuwa gaskiya ne, aka kuma tabbatar cewa wannan abin ƙyama ya faru a cikin Isra’ila,
5 then you have brought out that man or that woman who has done this evil thing, to your gates—the man or the woman—and you have stoned them with stones, and they have died.
sai a ɗauki namijin, ko ta mace wanda ya aikata wannan mugun abu zuwa ƙofar birni, a jajjefe wannan mutum sai ya mutu.
6 By the mouth of two witnesses or three witnesses is he who is being put to death put to death; he is not put to death by the mouth of one witness;
Bisa ga shaidar mutum biyu ko uku, za a iya kashe mutum, amma ba za a iya kashe mutum bisa ga shaida mutum guda ba.
7 the hand of the witnesses is on him in the first place to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
Hannuwan shaidun ne za su zama na farko a kisan wanda ake zargin, sa’an nan hannuwan dukan mutane. Dole ku fid da mugu daga cikinku.
8 When anything is too hard for you for judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke—matters of strife within your gates—then you have risen and gone up to the place on which your God YHWH fixes,
In aka kawo ƙarar da yake da wuya sosai ga alƙali a kotunanku, ko wadda aka zub da jini ne, ko ta faɗa ce, ko kuwa ta wadda aka ci mutunci ce, ku kai su wurin da Ubangiji Allahnku zai zaɓa.
9 and have come to the priests, the Levites, and to the judge who is in those days, and have inquired, and they have declared the word of judgment to you,
Ku je wurin firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawa, ga kuma alƙalin wanda yake mulki a lokacin. Ku bincika daga gare su, za su kuwa ba da hukunci.
10 and you have done according to the tenor of the word which they declare to you ([they] of that place which YHWH chooses); and you have observed to do according to all that they direct you.
Dole ku aikata hukuncin da suka yi a wurin da Ubangiji zai zaɓa. Ku lura fa, ku aikata kome da suka faɗa muku.
11 According to the tenor of the law which they direct you, and according to the judgment which they say to you, you do; you do not turn aside from the word which they declare to you [to] the right or left.
Ku yi bisa ga dokar da suka koyar muku da kuma hukuncin da suka yi muku. Kada ku juya daga abin da suka faɗa muku, ko zuwa dama, ko zuwa hagu.
12 And the man who acts with presumption, so as not to listen to the priest (who is standing to serve your God YHWH there), or to the judge, even that man has died, and you have put away evil from Israel,
Duk mutumin da ya yi rashin hankali wa alƙali, ko ga firist wanda yake aiki a nan wa Ubangiji Allahnku, dole a kashe shi. Dole ku fid da mugu daga Isra’ila.
13 and all the people hear and fear, and do not presume anymore.
Dukan mutane kuwa za su ji, su kuma ji tsoro, ba kuwa za su ƙara yin rashin hankali kuma ba.
14 When you come into the land which your God YHWH is giving to you, and have possessed it, and dwelt in it, and you have said, Let me set a king over me like all the nations which [are] around me—
Sa’ad da kuka shiga ƙasar da Ubangiji Allahnku yake ba ku, kuka mallake ta, kuka kuma zauna a cikinta, sai kuka ce, “Bari mu naɗa sarki a kanmu kamar sauran al’umman da suke kewaye da mu,”
15 you certainly set a king over you on whom YHWH fixes; you set a king over you from the midst of your brothers; you are not able to set a stranger over you, who is not your brother.
ku tabbata kun naɗa sarki a kanku wanda Ubangiji Allahnku ya zaɓa ne. Dole yă zama daga cikin’yan’uwanku. Kada ku sa baƙo a kanku, wanda ba mutumin Isra’ila ɗan’uwanku ba.
16 Only, he does not multiply horses for himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, so as to multiply horses, seeing YHWH has said to you, You do not add to return in this way anymore.
Sarkin, ba zai nemi dawakai da yawa wa kansa ba, ko yă sa mutane su koma Masar don su sami ƙarin dawakai ba, gama Ubangiji ya faɗa muku, “Ba za ku ƙara koma wancan hanya kuma ba.”
17 And he does not multiply wives for himself, and his heart does not turn aside, and he does not exceedingly multiply silver and gold for himself.
Sarkin ba zai auri mata masu yawa ba, in ba haka ba zuciyarsa za tă karkata. Ba zai tara azurfa da zinariya da yawa ba.
18 And it has been, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he has written a copy of this law for himself, on a scroll, from [that] before the priests, the Levites,
Sa’ad da ya hau kursiyin mulkinsa, sai yă rubuta wa kansa a littafin kofin wannan doka da aka ɗauka daga na firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawa.
19 and it has been with him, and he has read in it all [the] days of his life, so that he learns to fear his God YHWH, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes—to do them,
Zai kasance tare da shi, zai kuma karanta shi dukan kwanakin ransa, saboda yă koyi girmama Ubangiji Allahnsa, yă kuma bi dukan kalmomin wannan doka da kuma waɗannan ƙa’idodi a hankali
20 so that his heart is not high above his brothers, and so as not to turn aside from the command [to] the right or left, so that he prolongs days over his kingdom, he and his sons in the midst of Israel.”
don kada yă ɗauki kansa ya fi’yan’uwansa, yă kuma juya daga dokar zuwa dama, ko zuwa hagu. Sa’an nan shi da kuma zuriyarsa za su daɗe suna mulki a Isra’ila.
