< Exodus 23 >

1 “Do not tell to others (false rumors/untrue reports) about other people. Do not help someone who is guilty by (testifying falsely/lying) [about what happened].
Vahe'mo'ma osu'nesiazankura krunagea hutma vano osiho. Hazenke vahetega anteta havi kea keagafina huamara osiho.
2 Do not join a group of people who are planning to do something evil. Do not testify the way the [crowd wants you to], if that will prevent [the judge from deciding the case] justly/fairly.
Rama'a vahera avaririnka kefo avu'ava zana osuo. Hagi mago'mo'ma keagare'ma oti'nenama, rama'a vahe'mo'za havi kema hunente'nagenka kagranena zamavaririnka havi kea osuo.
3 When a poor person is on trial, do not [testify in] his favor [just] because he is poor [and you feel sorry for him].
Hanki mago zanarimpa osu'neke ke ha'ma nehanankenka, amunte omane nere hunka agri kazigagera onto.
4 If you see someone’s bull or donkey when it is wandering away [loose], take it back to [its owner, even if the owner] is your enemy.
Ha' vahekamofo bulimakao afuro donki afumo'ma hazagre'nena kesnunka, ete avrenka nafa'amofo ome amio.
5 If you see someone’s donkey that has fallen down [because of its heavy load], help the owner to get the donkey up again, [even if] he is someone who hates you. Do not just walk away [without helping him].
Avesinogantesnia ne'mofo tonki afumo'ma, tusi'a knaza erino nevanifintima ome traka huno'ma masenenkenka, ana nera aza hunka donki afu'a azeri otio.
6 Decide the cases of poor people who are on trial [as] fairly [as you decide the cases of other people].
Hanki amunte omne vahe'mo'ma keagafima oti'nesigenka amunte me'nea vahetega antenka azeri havizana osunka keaga antahi so'e huo.
7 Do not accuse people falsely. Do not decide that innocent and righteous [DOU] people should be executed, because I will (punish/not forgive) people who do such an evil thing.
Havigea hunka hazenkema osu'nesia vahera keagafina avrentege ahe frigera osunka ogantu'a manio. Na'ankure Nagra e'inama hanaza vahetamimofo kumira atre ozmantegosue.
8 Do not accept money that is a bribe, because officials who accept bribes are not able to [MTY] decide what is right to do, and they do not allow innocent people to be treated fairly.
Keagafima mani'neno'ma aza huogu'ma masavema huno kamisia zana e'orio. Na'ankure masavema huno aza hinogu'ma ami zamo'a, keagama refkohu vahe'mofo avurga eri asu higeno, fatgo vahe'mofo kea eri rukrahe nehie.
9 Do not mistreat foreigners [who live among you]. You know [how people often treat] foreigners, because the Egyptians [did not treat you well when] you were foreigners there.
Ru moparetima tamagranema emani'naza vahera zamazeri havi zana osiho. Na'ankure tamagrama Isipi moparema mani'netama eri'naza knazana antahi'naze.
10 Plant [seeds] in your ground and gather the harvest for six years.
Tamagra hoza 6si'a kafumofo agu'afi erita nenteta, ne'zama'a vasageho.
11 But during the seventh year you must not plant anything. [If things grow without your planting seeds], allow poor people [to harvest and] eat the crops. If there are still crops (left over/that they do not harvest), allow wild animals to eat them. Do the same thing with your grapevines/vineyards and your olive trees.
Hianagi 7ni kafurera ana mopafina hoza onteta atrenkeno manigsa hino. Hagi ana mopafima agra'ama hagesia ne'zana atrenkeno zamunte omane vahe'mo'za eri'za nenenkeno, mago'a afi zagagafamo'za neho. Ana zanke huta olivi zafa hozane waini zafa hozanena onkrita atrenkeno mopamo'a amne meno.
12 [You may] work for six days [each week], but on the seventh day you must rest [and not work]. And on the seventh day you must allow your work animals and your slaves and the foreigners [who live among you] also [to rest and] be refreshed.
Miko erizantamia 6si'a zage knafi erigahaze. Hianagi 7ni zagekna zupa manigsa hinkeno bulimakao afutamimo'ene donki afutamimo'ene, tamagri kazokzo eri'za a'mofo mofavretamine, emani vahe'mo'zama eri'zama e'nerisaza nena manigsa hugahaze.
13 Make certain that you obey everything that I have commanded [you to do]. Do not pray to [MTY] other gods. Do not even mention their names.”
Nagrama huogu'ma kasami'noa kea antahi ankere'nenka, havi anumazantmimofo agiramina ahege, ana anumzatmimofo agigenke'a huama osiho. Nehinke'za zamagra ontahiho.
14 “Every year you must celebrate three festivals to [honor] me.
Mago kafufina 3'a zupa atru huta ne'zana kreta neneta, monora hunantetere hiho.
15 [The first one] is the Festival of Bread That Has No Yeast. Celebrate it in the month [that is named] Abib. That is the month in which you left Egypt. Celebrate it in the way that I commanded you. And always bring [LIT] an offering when you come to worship me.
Nagrama hurmante'noaza hutma ese ne'zama nesazana 7ni'a zageknafi zo-ore bretia neho. E'i ana ne'zana Avibi (March-April) ikante netere hiho. Na'ankure e'i ana ikante Isipitira atreta atiramita e'naze. E'ina hu'negu ana mika'mo'za amnea ome'za zamente zamente kresramna vu musezana eri'za eho.
16 The second one is the Festival of Harvesting. During that festival you must offer to me the first parts/harvest of your crops that grow from the seeds that you planted. The third one is the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters. That will be after you finish harvesting your grain and grapes and fruit.
Anantera ne'zama hamare'zamofo musema hu knarera, ese'ma hozafima nenama hania kavera emeritru hutma ne'zana neneta musena nehutma, ana hukna huta ne'zama vasage nompima ante vagare knarera, ne'zana neneta musena hugahaze.
17 Every year, at each of these times, all the men must gather together to worship me, Yahweh God.
Mago kafufina 3'a zupa mika venene'motma Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'na navuga etere hiho.
18 When you sacrifice an animal [and offer it] to me, you must not offer bread that has been baked with yeast. [When you] offer sacrifices, [burn] the fat [from the animals on that same day]. Do not allow any fat to remain until the next morning.
Nagritegama kresramnama vunantesaza zagamofo koranpina zistima me'nesiazana erinteta Kresramana vuonanteho. Hianagi ana zagagafamofo afovamo'a me'nenkeno kora otino, hanki ana zupage tevefi kre fanane hiho.
19 Each year, when you harvest your crops, bring to the place where you worship me, Yahweh God, the first part of what you harvest. When you kill a (young animal/kid [or lamb or calf)], do not [prepare to eat it by] boiling it in its mother’s milk.”
Ese ne'zama hozatamifinti'ma vasagesazana eritma Rantami Anumzamofo nompi eme amiho. Hagi anenta meme afura nerera ami rimpina onkreho.
20 “Note this: I am going to send an angel ahead of you, to guard you as you travel and to bring you safely to the place that I have prepared [for you]. Pay attention to what he says and obey him. Do not rebel against him, because he will have my authority [MTY] and he will (punish/not forgive) [LIT] you if you rebel against him.
Antahiho, Nagra ankero vahe'ni'a huntoankino, ugota hurmanteno nevuno kantega kegava huramanteno retro'ma huramante'noa kumatera vugahie.
Ana ne'mo'ma mika'a kema kasmisiana, hara reontenka ke'a antahinka erizafa huo. Na'ankure Nagri nagimo'a agripi me'nena, ha'marentesanana kumika'a atreogantegosie.
22 But if you pay attention to what he says and if you do all that I tell you [to do], I will fight strongly [DOU] against all of your enemies.
Hianagi Nagrama asamisua kema tamasmi'na ke'ama antahita avaririsage'na, Nagra ha' vahetamimofona ha' hunentena, ha'ma rezmantesaza vahera ha' rezamantegahue.
23 My angel will go ahead of you, and will take you to where the Amor and Heth and Periz and Canaan and Hiv and Jebus people-groups live, and I will completely get rid of them.
Na'ankure ankeronimo'a ugagota hurmanteno tamavreno Amori vahepine, Hiti vahepine, Perisi vahepine, Kenani vahepine, Hivi vahepine, Jebusi vahe'mofo mopafinena nevina, Nagra ana kumatmimpi vahetmina zmahehana hugahue.
24 Do not bow down before their gods/idols or worship them. And do not do the things [that they think that their gods want] them to do. Completely destroy their gods/idols, and smash to pieces their sacred stones.
Zamagri anumzatmintera tamarenarege monora huntege, zamavu'zmavara avaririta osiho. Hagi mika havi anumzazmia erita rurako hutreho.
25 You must worship me, Yahweh God. [If you do that], I will bless your (OR, bless [you by giving you]) food and water, and I will protect you from becoming sick.
Hagi Anumza Rantamimofona Agrike monora hunentenke'na, ne'zama nesaza zane, tima nesaza zana asomu huneramante'na kria amu'notmifintira eritra'neno.
26 No women in your land will have (miscarriages/babies that will die after being born prematurely), and no women will be unable to become pregnant. And I will enable you to live a long time.
Hagi mofavrea kase ofri knare hu'za kse nezmante'nageno, magore huno naravora ana mopafina omanigahie. Hagi ana mopafina tamagra zaza kna manitetma frigahaze.
27 I will cause the people who oppose you to become very afraid of me. I will cause the people whom you fight against to become very confused. And then I will cause them to turn around and run away from you.
Nagra vugota hu'na ana ha' vahetimia zamazeri kore neha'nena antahintahi zamimo'a savri nehina rukrahe hu'za kore fregahaze.
28 I will cause your enemies to become terrified. And I will expel the Hiv, Canaan, and Heth people-groups from your land.
Nagra tume huntanenkeno ugota hurmanteno Hivi vahe'ma, Kenani vahe'ma, Hiti vahera zmarotago hinke'za ana mopafina omanigosaze.
29 I will not expel [all of] them in less than one year. If I did that, your land would become deserted, and there would be very many wild animals ([that would attack you/you would not be able to control]).
Hianagi magoke kafufinkera zamahe kaso'opegosue, na'ankure e'inama hanugeno'a, afi zagagafamo'a forehu hakare huno mika kaziga avite'neno, tamazeri havizantfa hugahie.
30 I will expel those people-groups slowly, a few at a time, until the number of your people increases and you are able to live everywhere in the land.
E'igu akohe'na, ha' vahetimia osi'a zamazeri atretere nehanugeta, hakare vahe'ma fore huta miko mopa mani aviteghaze.
31 I will cause the borders of your land to extend from the (Red Sea/Gulf of Aqaba) [in the southeast] to the Mediterranean Sea [in the northwest], and from the [Sinai] Desert [in the southwest] to the [Euphrates] River [in the northeast of the country]. I will enable you [MTY] to expel the people who live there, so that you will expel them as you occupy more of the country.
Mopatimimofo atupa'ama ometre emetrema hu'neana, koranke hgerinteti eri agafa huno vuno Medeterenia hagerinte ome atregahie. Hagi mago kaziga asopa'amo'a ka'ma mopareti erigafa huno vuno Yufretisi tinte ome atregahie. Hagi e'i ana mopafima nemaniza vahera Nagra tamaza nehane'na mopazmia zamaheta hanaregahaze.
32 You must not make any agreement/treaty with those people or with their gods.
Hanki mago huvempa kea ana mopare vahe'eneno, anumzazmirera huta eri hageorafiho.
33 Do not allow [those people] to live in your land, in order that they do not cause you to sin against me. If you worship their gods, [you will not be able to escape from worshiping them and sinning against me, just like someone caught] in a trap [is unable to escape] [MET].”
Zamatrenke'za tamagri mopafina omaniho. Na'ankure tamazeri savari hanageta havi anumzante monora hunenteta kumi hanageno, kukomo tamazeriankna hugahie.
