< Deuteronomy 17 >
1 You must not sacrifice to Yahweh your God an ox or a sheep in which is any blemish or anything bad, for that would be an abomination to Yahweh your God.
Kada ku miƙa wa Ubangiji Allahnku, saniya ko tunkiyar da take da wani lahani, ko naƙasa a cikinta, gama wannan zai zama abar ƙyama gare shi.
2 If there is found among you, within any of your city gates that Yahweh your God is giving you, any man or woman who does what is evil in the sight of Yahweh your God and transgresses his covenant,
In an sami wani namiji ko ta mace mai zama a cikinku, a ɗaya daga biranen da Ubangiji ya ba ku yana aikata abin da yake mugu a gaban Ubangiji Allahnku ta wurin karya alkawarinsa,
3 anyone who has gone and worshiped other gods and bowed down to them, either the sun, the moon, or any of the host of heaven—nothing that I have commanded—
wanda ya saba wa umarnina, har ya yi sujada ga waɗansu alloli, yana rusuna musu, ko ga rana, ko ga wata, ko kuwa ga taurarin sama,
4 and if you are told about this, or if you have heard of it, then you must make a careful investigation. If it is true and certain that such an abomination has been done in Israel, this is what you should do.
in kuwa aka faɗa muku wannan, to, dole a bincika sosai. In kuwa gaskiya ne, aka kuma tabbatar cewa wannan abin ƙyama ya faru a cikin Isra’ila,
5 You must bring that man or woman, who has done this evil thing, to your city gates, that very man or woman, and you must stone that person to death.
sai a ɗauki namijin, ko ta mace wanda ya aikata wannan mugun abu zuwa ƙofar birni, a jajjefe wannan mutum sai ya mutu.
6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, will he who must die be put to death; but at the mouth of only one witness he must not be put to death.
Bisa ga shaidar mutum biyu ko uku, za a iya kashe mutum, amma ba za a iya kashe mutum bisa ga shaida mutum guda ba.
7 The hand of the witnesses must be the first to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people; and you will remove the evil from among you.
Hannuwan shaidun ne za su zama na farko a kisan wanda ake zargin, sa’an nan hannuwan dukan mutane. Dole ku fid da mugu daga cikinku.
8 If a matter arises that is too hard for you to judge—perhaps a question of murder or accidental death, of one person's right and another person's right, or a question of one kind of harm done, or another kind of matter, matters of controversy within your city gates—then you must go up to the place that Yahweh your God will choose as his sanctuary.
In aka kawo ƙarar da yake da wuya sosai ga alƙali a kotunanku, ko wadda aka zub da jini ne, ko ta faɗa ce, ko kuwa ta wadda aka ci mutunci ce, ku kai su wurin da Ubangiji Allahnku zai zaɓa.
9 You must go to the priests, the descendants of Levi, and to the judge who will be serving at that time; you will seek their advice, and they will give you the verdict.
Ku je wurin firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawa, ga kuma alƙalin wanda yake mulki a lokacin. Ku bincika daga gare su, za su kuwa ba da hukunci.
10 You must follow the law given to you at the place Yahweh will choose as his sanctuary. You will be careful to do everything that they direct you to do.
Dole ku aikata hukuncin da suka yi a wurin da Ubangiji zai zaɓa. Ku lura fa, ku aikata kome da suka faɗa muku.
11 Follow the law they teach you, and do according to the decisions they give you. Do not turn aside from what they tell you, to the right hand or to the left.
Ku yi bisa ga dokar da suka koyar muku da kuma hukuncin da suka yi muku. Kada ku juya daga abin da suka faɗa muku, ko zuwa dama, ko zuwa hagu.
12 Anyone who acts arrogantly, in not listening to the priest who is standing to serve before Yahweh your God, or in not listening to the judge—that man will die; you will put away the evil from Israel.
Duk mutumin da ya yi rashin hankali wa alƙali, ko ga firist wanda yake aiki a nan wa Ubangiji Allahnku, dole a kashe shi. Dole ku fid da mugu daga Isra’ila.
13 All the people must hear and fear, and act arrogantly no more.
Dukan mutane kuwa za su ji, su kuma ji tsoro, ba kuwa za su ƙara yin rashin hankali kuma ba.
14 When you have come to the land that Yahweh your God gives you, and when you take possession of it and begin to live in it, and then you say, 'I will set a king over myself, like all the nations that are round about me,'
Sa’ad da kuka shiga ƙasar da Ubangiji Allahnku yake ba ku, kuka mallake ta, kuka kuma zauna a cikinta, sai kuka ce, “Bari mu naɗa sarki a kanmu kamar sauran al’umman da suke kewaye da mu,”
15 then you must surely set as king over yourself someone whom Yahweh your God will choose. You must set as king over yourself someone from among your brothers. You may not put a foreigner, who is not your brother, over yourself.
ku tabbata kun naɗa sarki a kanku wanda Ubangiji Allahnku ya zaɓa ne. Dole yă zama daga cikin’yan’uwanku. Kada ku sa baƙo a kanku, wanda ba mutumin Isra’ila ɗan’uwanku ba.
16 But he must not multiply horses for himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt so that he may multiply horses, for Yahweh had said to you, 'You will never return that way again.'
Sarkin, ba zai nemi dawakai da yawa wa kansa ba, ko yă sa mutane su koma Masar don su sami ƙarin dawakai ba, gama Ubangiji ya faɗa muku, “Ba za ku ƙara koma wancan hanya kuma ba.”
17 He must not take many wives for himself, so that his heart does not turn away. He must not accumulate large amounts of silver and gold.
Sarkin ba zai auri mata masu yawa ba, in ba haka ba zuciyarsa za tă karkata. Ba zai tara azurfa da zinariya da yawa ba.
18 When he sits on the throne of his kingdom, he must write for himself in a scroll a copy of this law, from the law that is before the priests, who are Levites.
Sa’ad da ya hau kursiyin mulkinsa, sai yă rubuta wa kansa a littafin kofin wannan doka da aka ɗauka daga na firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawa.
19 The scroll must be with him, and he must read in it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to honor Yahweh his God, so as to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to observe them.
Zai kasance tare da shi, zai kuma karanta shi dukan kwanakin ransa, saboda yă koyi girmama Ubangiji Allahnsa, yă kuma bi dukan kalmomin wannan doka da kuma waɗannan ƙa’idodi a hankali
20 He must do this so that his heart is not lifted up above his brothers, and so that he does not turn away from the commandments, to the right hand or to the left; for the purpose that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children, among Israel.
don kada yă ɗauki kansa ya fi’yan’uwansa, yă kuma juya daga dokar zuwa dama, ko zuwa hagu. Sa’an nan shi da kuma zuriyarsa za su daɗe suna mulki a Isra’ila.
