Deuteronomy 22
1 “If you see some Israeli’s ox or sheep that has strayed away, do not act as though you did not see it. Take it back [to its owner].
Raha hitanao mania ny omby na ny ondrin’ ny rahalahinao, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany, fa avereno any amin’ ny rahalahinao mihitsy izany.
2 But if the owner does not live near you, or if you do not know who the owner is, take the animal to your house. [It can stay with you] until the owner comes, searching for it. Then you must give the animal to him.
Ary raha tsy akaiky anao, na tsy fantatrao, ny rahalahinao, dia ento mody any aminao ilay nania, ary aoka hitoetra aminao mandra-pitadin’ ny rahalahinao azy, dia haverinao any aminy.
3 You must do the same thing if you see a donkey, or a piece of clothing, or anything else that someone has lost. Do not refuse to do what you should do.
Ary toy izany koa no hataonao amin’ ny borikiny, na ny fitafiany, na ny zavatry ny rahalahinao, na inona na inona izay very ka hitanao; fa aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany.
4 “And if you see a fellow Israeli’s donkey or cow that has fallen down on the road, do not act as though you did not see it. Help the owner to lift the animal up [so that it can stand on its feet again].
Ary raha hitanao ny borikin’ ny rahalahinao, na ny ombiny, potraka any an-dalana, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany; fa manampia ny rahalahinao hanarina azy.
5 “Women must not wear men’s clothes, and men must not wear women’s clothes. Yahweh our God hates people who do things like that.
Aoka ny vehivavy tsy hitafy ny fitafian-dehilahy; ary aoka ny lehilahy tsy hitafy ny fitafiam-behivavy; fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany.
6 “If you happen to find a bird’s nest in a tree or on the ground, and the mother bird is sitting in the nest on its eggs or with the baby birds, do not take the mother bird [and kill it].
Raha sendra mahita akanim-borona eo anoloanao eny an-dalana ianao, na amin’ ny efa foy, na mbola atodiny, ary ny reniny manomba ny efa foy, na mikotrika ny atodiny, dia aza maka ny reniny mbamin’ ny zanany.
7 You are permitted to take the baby birds, but you must allow the mother bird to fly away. Do this in order that things will go well for you and that you will live for a long time.
Alefaso mihitsy ny reniny, fa ny zanany ihany no alao ho anao, mba hahita soa ianao ka ho maro andro.
8 “If you build a new house, you must put a (railing/low wall) around the edge of the roof. If you do that, and if someone falls off the roof [and dies], (you will not be guilty of causing that person to die/his death [MTY] will not be your fault).
Raha manao trano vaovao ianao, dia asio aro-fanina ny tampony, fandrao hisy olona hianjera eny, ka hahatonga heloka ny amin’ ny rà ho ao an-tranonao ianao.
9 “Do not plant any crop in the area where your grapevines are growing. If you do, you are not allowed to harvest the crops that you have planted or to harvest the grapes [to make wine from them].
Aza fafazana voan-javatra roa karazana mifangaroharo ny taninao, fandrao samy ho lasa ho sazy ny vokatry ny voan-javatra nafafinao sy ny vokatry ny tanim-boalobokao.
10 “Do not hitch together an ox and a donkey [for plowing your fields].
Aza mampikambana omby sy boriky hiasa tany.
11 “Do not wear clothing that is made by weaving together (wool and linen/two different kinds of thread).
Aza mitafy lamba volon’ ondry sy rongony mifamahofaho.
12 “[Twist threads together to] make tassels and sew/fasten them on the four bottom corners of your cloak.
Asio somotraviaviny ny zorony efatra amin’ ny lambanao izay itafianao.
13 “Suppose a man marries a young woman and has sex with her and later decides that he does not want her any more,
Raha misy lehilahy mampaka-bady ary mandry aminy, ka tsy tiany indray ravehivavy,
14 and he says false things about her, and claims that she was not a virgin when he married her.
dia haratsiny sy alàny baraka ka ataony hoe: Efa nampakatra ity vehivavy ity aho, nefa raha nandry taminy, dia tsy hitako ny famantarana azy ho virijina:
15 If that happens, the young woman’s parents must take the sheet that was on the bed when that man and their daughter were married, which still has bloodstains on it, and show it to the elders of the city at the (gate of/central meeting place in) the city.
dia halain’ ny ray aman-drenin-drazazavavy ny famantarana azy ho virijina ka ho entiny ho eo amin’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna eo am-bavahady.
16 Then the father of the young woman must say to the elders, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife. But now he says that he doesn’t want her any more.
Dia hiteny amin’ ny loholona ny rain-drazazavavy hoe: Ny zanako-vavy nomeko ho vadin’ io lehilahy io, kanefa tsy tiany indray izy;
17 And he has falsely said that she was not a virgin when he married her. But look! Here is what proves that my daughter was a virgin! Look at the bloodstains on the sheet where they slept the night that they were married!’ And he will show the sheet to the elders.
ary indro fa efa noharatsiny izy ka nataony hoe: Tsy hitako ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina; kanefa indreto ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina. Dia hamelatra ny lamba eo anatrehan’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izy mivady.
18 Then the elders of that city must take that man and whip him.
Ary halain’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izany lehilahy izany ka hofaizany.
19 They shall require that he pay a fine of 100 pieces of silver and give the money to the father of the young woman, because the man caused an Israeli young woman to be disgraced. Also, that woman must continue to live with him; she is his wife. He is not allowed to divorce her during the rest of his life.
Dia hosaziny sekely volafotsy zato koa izy, ka homeny ny rain-drazazavavy izany, satria nahafa-baraka ny virijina anankiray tamin’ ny Isiraely ralehilahy; nefa dia ho vadiny ihany razazavavy ka tsy azony hisaorana amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.
20 “But if what the man said is true, and there is nothing to prove that she was a virgin when he married her,
Fa raha marina kosa izany lazainy izany, ka tsy hita ny famantarana an-drazazavavy ho virijina,
21 they must take that young woman to the door of her father’s house. Then the men of that city must execute her by throwing stones at her. They must do that because she has done something in Israel that is very disgraceful, by having sex with some man [while she was still living] in her father’s house. By executing her like that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.
dia ho entiny mivoaka ho eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny tranon-drainy razazavavy ka hotorahan’ ny mponina amin’ ny tanànany vato ho faty, satria nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin’ ny Isiraely izy ka nijangajanga tao an-tranon-drainy; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.
22 “If a man is caught while he is having sex with another man’s wife, both of them must be executed. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice in Israel.
Raha misy lehilahy azo mandry amim-behivavy vadin’ olona, dia samy hatao maty izy roroa, na ralehilahy izay nandry tamin-dravehivavy, na ravehivavy koa; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo amin’ ny Isiraely ny fanao ratsy.
23 “Suppose in some town a man sees a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married to another man, and he is caught having sex with [EUP] her.
Raha misy zazavavy virijina voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misy lehilahy mahita azy eo an-tanàna ka mandry aminy,
24 You must take both of them to the (gate of/central meeting place in) that town. There you must execute them both by throwing stones at them. You must execute the young woman because she did not shout for help even though she was in the town. And the man must be executed because he had sex [EUP] with someone who was already engaged/promised to be married. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.
dia ho entinareo mivoaka ho eo amin’ ny vavahadin’ izany tanàna izany izy roroa ka hotorahanareo vato ho faty: razazavavy moa, satria tsy niantso, nefa tao an-tanàna ihany; ary ralehilahy koa, satria nandry tamin’ ny vadin’ ny namany; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.
25 “But suppose out in the open countryside a man meets a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married, and he rapes her. If that happens, only that man must be executed.
Fa raha any an-tsaha kosa no ahitan-dralehilahy an-drazazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misavika azy ralehilahy ka mandry aminy, dia ralehilahy izay nandry taminy ihany no hatao maty.
26 You must not punish the young woman, because she did not do anything for which she deserves to be executed. This case is like when one man attacks another man [in the countryside] and murders him,
Fa ravehivavy dia tsy hasianao na inona na inona; fa tsy misy ota tokony hahafaty azy; fa tahaka ny olona mitsangana hamely ny namany ka mahafaty azy no hevitr’ izany zavatra izany.
27 because the man who raped her saw her when she was in the open countryside, and even though she called out for help, there was no one there who could rescue her.
Fa tany an-tsaha no nahitany azy; ary niantso ihany razazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, nefa tsy nisy hamonjy azy.
28 “If a man rapes a young woman who is not engaged/promised to be married, if someone sees him while he is doing that,
Raha misy lehilahy mahita zazavavy virijina, izay tsy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ka misavika azy sady mandry aminy, koa hita izy roroa,
29 that man must pay 50 pieces of silver to the young woman’s father, and he must marry her, because he forced her to have sex with him. He is not allowed to divorce her for the rest of his life.
dia hanome sekely volafotsy dimam-polo ho an’ ny rain-drazazavavy ralehilahy izay nandry taminy; ary hovadiny izy, satria efa nosavihiny sady nandriany; ary tsy azony hisaorana izy amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.
30 “man must not disgrace his father by having sex with any of his father’s wives.”
Tsy mahazo maka ny vadin-drainy ny olona, na maniry amin’ izay nandrian-drainy.
