< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 “When there is a strife between men, and they have come near to the judgment, and they have judged, and declared righteous the righteous, and declared wrong the wrongdoer,
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 then it has come to pass, if the wrongdoer is to be struck, that the judge has caused him to fall down, and [one] has struck him in his presence, according to the sufficiency of his wrongdoing, by 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 he strikes him forty [times]; he is not adding, lest he is adding to strike him above these many stripes, and your brother be lightly esteemed in your eyes.
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 do not muzzle an ox in its threshing.
Aza manakombona ny vavan’ ny omby mively vary.
5 When brothers dwell together, and one of them has died and has no son, the wife of the dead is not given to a strange man; her husband’s brother goes in to her, and has taken her to him for a wife, and performs the duty of her husband’s brother;
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 has been, the firstborn which she bears rises for the name of his dead brother, and his name is not wiped away 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 does not delight to take his brother’s wife, then his brother’s wife has gone up to the gate, to the elderly, and said, My husband’s brother is refusing to raise up a name for his brother in Israel; he has not been willing to 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 and [the] elderly of his city have called for him, and spoken to him, and he has stood and said, I have no desire 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 his brother’s wife has drawn near to him before the eyes of the elderly, and drawn his shoe from off his foot, and spat in his face, and answered and said, Thus it is done to the man who does not build up the house of his brother;
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 has been called in Israel, The house of him whose shoe is drawn off.
Ary ny anaran-dralehilahy dia hatao eo amin’ ny Isiraely hoe: Fianakavian’ ilay nalan-kapa.
11 When men strive together with one another, and the wife of one has drawn near to deliver her husband out of the hand of his striker, and has put forth her hand, and laid hold on his private parts,
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 have cut off her hand; your eye does not spare.
dia hotapahinao ny tànany; tsy hiantra azy ny masonao.
13 You do not have [both] a great stone and a small stone in your bag.
Aoka tsy hisy vato mahery sy reraka ao an-kitaponao.
14 You do not have a great ephah and a small ephah in your house.
Aoka tsy hisy famarana mihoatra sy latsaka ao an-tranonao.
15 You have a complete and just stone, [and] you have a complete and just ephah, so that they prolong your days on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to 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 anyone doing these things, anyone doing iniquity, [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
Fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany zavatra izany, dia izay rehetra manao ny tsy marina.
17 Remember that which Amalek has done to you in the way in your going out from Egypt,
Tsarovy izay nataon’ ny Amalekita taminao teny an-dalana tamin’ ny nandehananareo avy tany Egypta,
18 that he has met you in the way, and strikes among you all those feeble behind you (when you [were] weary and fatigued), and is not fearing 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 And it has been, in your God YHWH giving rest to you from all your surrounding enemies, in the land which your God YHWH is giving to you [for] an inheritance to possess it, you blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens—you do not forget.”
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.
