Deuteronomy 22
1 You shall not see your brother's ox or his sheep go astray, and hide yourself from them: you shall surely bring them again to your brother.
Sɛ wuhu sɛ wo yɔnko Israelni bi nantwi anaa ne guan nam basabasa a, mmu wʼani ngu so; mmom kyere no kɔma ne wura.
2 If your brother isn't near to you, or if you do not know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother seek after it, and you shall restore it to him.
Sɛ ne wura nte mmɛn wo, anaasɛ wunnim no a, fa no kɔ wo fi kosi sɛ ne wura no bɛba abɛhwehwɛ no na wode nʼaboa ma no.
3 So you shall do with his donkey; and so you shall do with his garment; and so you shall do with every lost thing of your brother's, which he has lost, and you have found: you may not hide yourself.
Sɛ wuhu wo nua bi afurum anaa ne ntama anaa ne biribi a ayera a, yɛ no saa ara. Mmu wʼani ngu so.
4 You shall not see your brother's donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide yourself from them: you shall surely help him to lift them up again.
Sɛ wuhu sɛ wo yɔnko Israelni bi afurum anaa ne nantwi bi atew ahwe wɔ ɔkwan mu a, mmu wʼani ngu so. Kɔboa ne wura no na ɔmma aboa no so nnyina hɔ.
5 A woman shall not wear men's clothing, neither shall a man put on women's clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to YHWH your God.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔbea hyɛ mmarima atade, saa ara nso na ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔbarima hyɛ mmea atade, efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, kyi obiara a ɔyɛ eyi.
6 If a bird's nest chance to be before you in the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the hen sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the hen with the young:
Sɛ wokɔto anomaa berebuw wɔ ɔkwankyɛn, sɛ ɛhyɛ dua mu anaa ɛda fam, na sɛ anomaa no na butuw ne ba no so anaa obutuw nkesua so a, mfa anomaa no na ne ne ba no nkɔ.
7 you shall surely let the hen go, but the young you may take to yourself; that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days.
Wutumi fa ne ba no nanso hwɛ sɛ wobɛma ne na no akɔ, sɛnea ebesi wo yiye na wo nkwanna aware.
8 When you build a new house, then you shall make a battlement for your roof, that you do not bring blood on your house, if any man fall from there.
Sɛ wusi ɔdan foforo a, yɛ ban fa wo dan no nkuruso no ho na obi amfi hɔ antew anhwe amma woamfa mogyahwiegu ho afɔdi amma wo ne wo dan no so.
9 You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited, the seed which you have sown, and the increase of the vineyard.
Nnua nnɔbae foforo biara wɔ bobe ntam wɔ wo bobeturo mu. Sɛ woyɛ saa a, na wo nnɔbae no ne bobeturo no so aba nyinaa ho agu fi.
10 You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
Nsa nantwi ne afurum mmɔ mu mfuntum afuw.
11 You shall not wear a mixed stuff, wool and linen together.
Mfura ntama a wɔde kuntu ne sirikyi afra anwen.
12 You shall make yourselves fringes on the four borders of your cloak, with which you cover yourself.
Yɛ ntama a wufura no ano anan no nyinaa mpɛsɛ.
13 If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, and hates her,
Sɛ ɔbarima ware ɔbea na ɔne no da na akyiri no ɔmpɛ no bio,
14 and accuses her of shameful things, and brings up an evil name on her, and says, "I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I did not find in her the tokens of virginity";
na enti ɔka ne ho asɛmmɔne, bɔ no din bɔne se, “Mewaree no no, manhu biribiara a ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbabun,”
15 then shall the father of the young woman, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the young woman's virginity to the elders of the city in the gate;
a, ɔbea no agya ne ne na wɔ ho kwan sɛ wɔde adansede a ɛkyerɛ sɛ wɔn babea no yɛ ɔbabun bɛkyerɛ kurow no mpanyimfo wɔ kurow no pon.
16 and the young woman's father shall tell the elders, "I gave my daughter to this man to wife, and he hates her;
Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbea no agya ka kyerɛ wɔn se, “Mede me babea maa ɔbarima yi aware nanso ose ɔmpɛ no bio.
17 and look, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, 'I did not find in your daughter the tokens of virginity;' and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity." They shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
Wagu nʼanim ase aka se, ‘Manhu sɛ wo babea no yɛ ɔbabun.’ Nanso adansede a ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ɔbabun no ni.” Afei, wɔbɛtrɛw ntama no mu wɔ kurow no mpanyimfo anim,
18 The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him;
na mpanyimfo no bɛfrɛ ɔbarima no atwe nʼaso.
19 and they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the young woman, because he has brought up an evil name on a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
Wɔbɛbɔ no ka kilogram baako sɛ wagu Israel ɔbabun no anim ase. Wobetua sika no ama ɔbea no agya. Afei, ɔbabea no bɛyɛ ɔbarima no yere a ɔrennyaa no bio.
20 But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young woman;
Sɛ ɛkɔba sɛ kwaadu a wɔde bɔɔ no no yɛ nokware na wɔannya adansede a ɛfa ne babunyɛ no ho ankyerɛ a,
21 then they shall bring out the young woman to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father's house: so you shall put away the evil from the midst of you.
wɔde ɔbea no bɛba nʼagya fi abɔntenpon ano na kurom hɔ mmarima asiw no abo akum no. Ɔnam aguamammɔ so ayɛ animguase ade wɔ Israel, bere a ɔne nʼawofo te. Ɛsɛ sɛ mutu saa bɔne no ase fi mo mu.
22 If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman: so you shall put away the evil from Israel.
Sɛ wohu sɛ ɔbarima bi ne ɔbarima foforo bi yere da a, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum ɔbarima a ɔne ɔbea no dae no ne ɔbea no nyinaa. Ɛsɛ sɛ mutu saa bɔne no ase wɔ Israel.
23 If there is a young woman who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
Sɛ ɔbarima bi hyia ababaa a ɔyɛ ɔbabun a ɔne obi ahyehyɛ aware na ɔbarima no ne ababaa no da na sɛ saa asɛm no sii wɔ kurow no mu a,
24 then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the woman, because she did not cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor's wife: so you shall put away the evil from the midst of you.
ɛsɛ sɛ mode wɔn baanu no kɔ kurow no apon ano kosiw wɔn abo kum wɔn. Ababaa no di fɔ, efisɛ na ɔwɔ kurom nanso wanteɛteɛ mu ampɛ mmoa. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima no nso wu, efisɛ wafa obi yere. Ɛsɛ sɛ mutu saa bɔne no ase fi mo mu.
25 But if the man find the woman who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her; then the man only who lay with her shall die:
Sɛ ɔbarima bi hyia ɔbea a obi ne no ahyehyɛ aware wɔ wuram, na ɔbarima no hyɛ no ne no da a, ɛsɛ sɛ wokum ɔbarima a ɔyɛɛ saa no nkutoo.
26 but to the woman you shall do nothing; there is in the woman no sin worthy of death: for as when a man rises against his neighbor, and kills him, even so is this matter;
Monnyɛ ababaa no hwee, efisɛ ɔnyɛɛ bɔne biara a ɛma ɔfata owu. Saa asɛm yi te sɛ obi a watow ahyɛ ne yɔnko so akum no,
27 for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married woman cried, and there was none to save her.
efisɛ ɔbarima no hyiaa ɔbea no wɔ wuram, na asiwa no teɛteɛɛ mu de, nanso wannya ogyefo biara.
28 If a man find a woman who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
Sɛ wɔkyere ɔbarima bi sɛ wahyɛ ababaa bi a obi ne no nhyehyɛe aware, ne no ada a,
29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the woman's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has humbled her; he may not put her away all his days.
ɛsɛ sɛ otua dwetɛ kilogram abien ne fa ma ababaa no agya. Na ɛno akyi no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima no ware ababaa no, efisɛ wagu nʼanim ase na ɔrentumi nnyae no aware da.
30 A man shall not take his father's wife, and shall not uncover his father's skirt.
Ɔbarima biara nni ho kwan sɛ ɔne nʼagya yere da; ɛnsɛ sɛ ogu nʼagya mpa ho fi.
