< Deuteronomy 24 >
1 “Suppose a man marries a woman and later decides that he does not want her because there is something about her that he doesn’t like. And suppose he writes on paper that he is divorcing her, and he gives the paper to her [SYN] and sends her away from his house.
“Mukul se fin payuk sin sie mutan, na tok el srungalla mweyen el konauk lah oasr ma sufal lun mutan sac, ouinge el simusla sie pwepu in fahsrelik, sang nu sin mutan sac, ac supwalla liki lohm sel.
2 Then suppose that she goes and marries another man,
Na mutan sac fin sifil payukyak sin siena mukul,
3 and that man [later also] decides that he does not like her, and he also writes on paper that he is divorcing her, and he sends her away from his house. Or, suppose that the second husband dies.
ac mukul se akluo tumal el oayapa srungalla, ac el orala pac pwepu in fahsrelik, sang nu sin mutan sac, ac supwalla liki lohm sel ah. Ku fin pa mukul se tumal akluo ah misa.
4 If either of those things happens, her first husband must not marry her again. He must consider that she has become unacceptable to Yahweh. Yahweh would consider it to be disgusting [if he married her again]. You must not sin [MTY] by doing that in the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
Na ke sripen mutan sac el oan tari yurin mukul akluo timal, el tia ku in sifil payuk nu sin mukul tumal meet ah. Lumah se inge LEUM GOD El arulana srunga. Nik kowos aktaekye facl se LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos.
5 “When some man has recently become married, he must not [be required to] become a soldier in the army or be required to do any other work [for the government] for one year [after being married]. He should stay happily at home with his wife for that year.
“Ke sie mukul el payuk sasu, ac fah tia supweyukla el nu ke mweun, ku kuneyuk el nu ke kutena kain in kunokon lun acn uh. El sukosokla liki kutena kunokon ke yac fon se, tuh elan ku in mutana in lohm sel ac insewowo yurin mutan kial.
6 “Anyone who lends money to someone else [is allowed to require that person to give him something] to guarantee [that he will pay back the money that he borrowed. But] he must not take from him his (millstone/stone for grinding grain). That would be taking [the millstone that his family needs to grind the grain to make the bread] they need to stay alive.
“Pacl kom ac sang enenu lun sie mwet su ngisre sum, kom fah tia eis kewana eot in ilil wheat lal in oan yurum nu ke pacl se el fah akfalye ngusr lal. Mweyen pa na ingan ma sou sacn moulkin.
7 “If someone kidnaps/steals a fellow Israeli to cause that person to become his slave or to sell him [to become someone else’s slave], you must execute the person who did that. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil among you.
“Kutena mwet fin pisrala sie sin mwet Israel wial ac oru tuh elan mwet kohs lal, ku el kukakunulla tuh in mwet kohs lun kutena mwet, mwet pisrapasr sacn enenu in anwuki. Ma inge ac oru tuh ma koluk se inge in wanginla liki inmasrlowos.
8 “If you are suffering from (leprosy/a dreaded skin disease), be sure to do everything that the priests, who are from the tribe of Levi, tell you to do. Obey carefully the instructions that I have given to them.
“Kom fin maskin musen lepa, ku kutena mas upa ke kolo, kom enenu in oru ma nukewa mwet tol Levi elos sap kom in oru. Oru oana kas in luti ma nga sang nu selos.
9 Do not forget what Yahweh our God did to Miriam, [when she became a leper], after your ancestors left Egypt.
Esam ma LEUM GOD lom El tuh oru nu sel Miriam ke kowos tuku liki acn Egypt.
10 “When you lend something to someone, do not go into his house to take the cloak that he says that he will give you to guarantee [that he will return what he has borrowed].
“Ke kom sang sie ma nu sin sie mwet ke sripen ngusr lal nu sum, nik kom utyak nu in lohm sel in eis nuknuk se ma el ac sot in mwe akpwaye soemoul lal.
11 Stand outside his house, and the man to whom you are lending something will bring the cloak out to you.
Mutana likinima ac soano elan sifacna usot.
12 But if he is poor, do not keep that cloak all night.
El fin mwet sukasrup se, nik kom sruokya nuknuk sac ke fong uh.
13 When the sun sets, take the cloak back to him, in order that he may wear it while he sleeps. If you do that, he will [ask God to] bless you, and Yahweh our God will be pleased with you.
Folokunla nu sel ke ekela, elan mau ku in nukum ke el motul. Na el ac arulana sang kulo, ac LEUM GOD lom El ac insewowo sum.
14 “Do not mistreat any servants whom you have hired who are poor and needy [DOU], whether they are Israelis or foreigners who are living in your town.
“Nik kom kutasrik ac sruokya kutu molin mwet kulansap lom su sukasrup ac enenu, el finne mwet Israel se ku mwetsac se su muta in siti in facl sum.
15 Every day, before sunset, you must pay/give them the money that they have earned. They are poor and they need to get their pay. If you do not pay them right away, they will cry out against you to Yahweh, and he will punish [MTY] you for having sinned like that.
Len nukewa meet liki faht uh tili, moleang molin orekma lal. El enenu mani sac, ac el lulalfongi lah el ac eis. Kom fin tia moli nu sel, el ac fah wowoyak lain kom nu sin LEUM GOD, na kom ac eis mwata kac.
16 “Parents must not be executed for crimes that their children have committed, and children must not be executed for crimes that their parents have committed. People should be executed only for the crimes that they themselves have committed.
“Papa ac nina ac fah tia anwuki ke sripen ma koluk lun tulik natulos, ac tulik uh ac fah tia anwuki ke ma koluk lun papa tumalos ac nina kialos. Mwet se fah anwuki ke sripen na ma koluk lal sifacna.
17 “You must [LIT] do for foreigners [who live] among you and for orphans what the laws state must be done for them. And [if you lend something to] a widow, do not take her coat from her as a guarantee [that she will return it].
“Nimet oru nununku sesuwos lain mwetsac ac tulik mukaimtal, oayapa nimet eis nuknuk lun sie katinmas in mwe akpwaye lah oasr soemoul lal sum.
18 Do not forget that [you had great hardships/troubles when] you were slaves in Egypt, and Yahweh our God rescued you from there. That is why I am commanding you [to help others who have troubles].
Esam lah kowos tuh mwet kohs in facl Egypt, ac LEUM GOD lowos El tuh molikowosla, pa sis nga asot ma sap se inge nu suwos.
19 “When you harvest your crops, if you have forgotten [that you left] one bundle in the field, do not go back to get it. [Leave it there] for foreigners, orphans, and widows. If you do that, Yahweh will bless you in everything that you do.
“Ke pacl kom kosrani fokin ima lom ac kom sisla kutu wheat ma kom kosrala, nimet folokla in eis. Filiya na tuh in ma lun mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal ac katinmas. Ouinge LEUM GOD lom El ac fah akinsewowoye kom ke ma nukewa kom oru.
20 And when you have harvested/picked all your olives from the trees once, do not go back [to pick the ones that are still] on the trees.
Ke kom tungasla tari fokin olive sunom pacl se, nimet folokla ac eis ma lula kac. Ma lula an in ma nu sin mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal, ac katinmas.
21 [Similarly], when you pick the grapes in your vineyard, do not go back a second time [to try to find more]. Leave them for the foreigners, orphans, and widows [among you].
Ke kom kosrani grape sunom pacl se meet, nik kom folokla in til pacl se akluo. Grape lula an in ma nu sin mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal ac katinmas.
22 Do not forget that [Yahweh was kind to you when] you were slaves in Egypt. That is why I am commanding you [to be kind to those who are needy].”
Kowos in tiana mulkunla lah kowos tuh mwet kohs in Egypt, pa oru nga sapkin ma inge nu suwos uh.
