Deuteronomy 24
1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it shall come to pass that she findeth no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give [it] in her hand, and send her out of his house.
Ọ bụrụ na nwoke akpọrọ nwanyị, lụọ ya, ma emesịa ihe nwanyị ahụ amasịkwaghị ya nʼihi na ọ dị ihe ọ chọpụtara nʼahụ ya nke na-adịghị mma, ọ ga-ede akwụkwọ alụkwaghị m nye nwanyị ahụ nʼaka, zilaa ya.
2 And when she hath departed from his house, she may go and be another man's [wife].
Ọ bụrụ na emesịa, nwoke ọzọ alụọ ya,
3 And [if] the latter husband shall hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and give [it] in her hand, and send her out of his house; or if the latter husband shall die, who took her [to be] his wife;
ma nwoke ahụ ekpebiekwa ịgbara ya akwụkwọ achọkwaghị m, maọbụ na nwoke a mesịrị nwụọ,
4 Her former husband who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that [is] abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance.
nwoke mbụ ahụ lụrụ nwanyị ahụ agaghị alụ ya ọzọ, nʼihi na nwanyị a abụrụla onye rụrụ arụ nye nwoke ahụ. Ọ bụkwa arụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị ma di ya nke mbụ lụọ ya ọzọ. Ihe dị otu a ga-eweta ihe ọjọọ nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke na-enye gị dịka ihe nketa.
5 When a man hath newly taken a wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: [but] he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife which he hath taken.
Nwoke ọbụla lụrụ nwunye ọhụrụ agaghị apụ soro ndị agha, maọbụ soro rụọ ọrụ ọzọ pụrụ iche, otu afọ ka ọ ga-enwere onwe ya ịnọ nʼụlọ ya, ya na nwunye ya, ime onwe ha obi ụtọ.
6 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone for a pledge: for he taketh [a man's] life for a pledge.
Mmadụ agaghị ewere nkume ịkwọ nri dịka ihe ebe, nʼihi na ọ bụ ihe onye nwe ya ji achọta nri ụbọchị ya.
7 If a man shall be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and shall make merchandise of him, or sell him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt remove evil from among you.
Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla ezuru nwanna ya onye Izrel nʼohi, mesoo ya mmeso dịka ohu, maọbụ ree ya, onye ohi ahụ ga-anwụ. Nke a bụ ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ nʼetiti gị.
8 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, [so] ye shall observe to do.
Gbalịsie ike ịhụ na ị na-eso iwu niile onye nchụaja, bụ onye Livayị nyere gị banyere ndị nwere ọrịa ekpenta, nʼihi na agwala m ya usoro ha ga-agbaso.
9 Remember what the LORD thy God did to Miriam by the way, after that ye come forth from Egypt.
Chetakwa ihe Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị mere Miriam, mgbe i si nʼIjipt na-apụta.
10 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into his house to take his pledge:
Ọ bụrụ na i binye mmadụ ihe ọbụla, abanyekwala nʼụlọ ya ịnata ihe a na-enye gị dị ka ihe ebe.
11 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge abroad to thee:
Guzo nʼezi! Ka onye ahụ ị na-ebinye ihe wetara gị ihe ibe ahụ nʼezi.
12 And if the man [is] poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:
Ọ bụrụ na ọ bụ onye ogbenye na-enweghị ihe, e jidela ihe ibe ya naba ụra abalị.
13 In any case thou shalt deliver to him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee; and it shall be righteousness to thee before the LORD thy God.
Weghachiri ya akwa ahụ nʼanyasị, ka onye agbataobi gị jiri ya hie ụra abalị. Mgbe ahụ ha ga-ekele gị, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agụkwara gị ya nʼezi omume.
14 Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant [that is] poor and needy, [whether he is] of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that [are] in thy land within thy gates:
Emegbula nwa ogbenye mkpa na-akpa i goro ọrụ, ma onye ahụ ọ bụ nwa Izrel ma ọ bụkwanụ onye ọbịa bi nʼobodo gị.
15 At his day thou shalt give [him] his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it, for he [is] poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he should cry against thee to the LORD, and it be sin to thee.
Kwụọ ya ụgwọ ya ụbọchị niile tupu anwụ adaa, nʼihi na ebe ọ bụ nwa ogbenye, obi ya dabeere nʼụgwọ ahụ ị ga-akwụ ya. Ọ bụrụ na i meghị otu a, ọ ga-akwa akwa kpọkuo Onyenwe anyị megide gị. A ga-agụkwara gị ya dịka mmehie.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
Agaghị eme ka ndị mụrụ ụmụ nwụọ nʼihi ihe ụmụ ha metara, maọbụ mee ka ụmụ nwụọ nʼihi ihe ndị mụrụ ha metara, onye ọbụla ga-anwụ nʼihi mmehie nke aka ya.
17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, [nor] of the fatherless, nor take a widow's raiment for a pledge:
Ikpe ziri ezi ga-adịrị, ọ bụladị onye ọbịa na nwa mgbei, anarakwala nwanyị di ya nwụrụ anwụ uwe ya dịka ihe ibe.
18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bond-man in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Cheta mgbe niile na i bụrụrị ohu nʼala Ijipt, ma Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị gbapụtara gị, nʼihi nke a ka m ji enye gị iwu ndị a.
19 When thou cuttest down thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
Ọ bụrụ na i lefuo ukwu ọka ụfọdụ anya mgbe ị na-ewe ihe ubi nʼubi gị, alaghachila azụ nʼubi gị ịchịrị ha. Hapụrụ ya ndị ọbịa, na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ anwụ, na ụmụ mgbei, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agọzi gị, ọ ga-emekwa ka ị baa ụba.
20 When thou beatest thy olive-tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Mgbe ị na-akụtusi mkpụrụ osisi oliv gị, ejeghachila azụ nʼalaka ọbụla inyochazi ya, ịchọpụta ma ị ghọtachaala mkpụrụ niile mịrị nʼelu ha. Hapụrụ ndị ọbịa na ụmụ mgbei, na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ mkpụrụ ọbụla fọdụrụ.
21 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean [it] afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Otu a ka ị ga-emekwa nʼihe banyere mkpụrụ ubi vaịnị gị. Atụtụkọchala mkpụrụ niile mịrị nʼelu ya. Hapụrụ ndị ọbịa, na ndị mgbei, na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ ihe niile fọdụrụ.
22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bond-man in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
Chetakwa na o nwere mgbe ị bụ ndị ohu nʼala Ijipt. Ọ bụ nʼihi ya ka m ji na-enye gị iwu a.
