Deuteronomy 17
1 'Thou dost not sacrifice to Jehovah thy God ox or sheep in which there is a blemish — any evil thing; for it [is] the abomination of Jehovah thy 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 'When there is found in thy midst, in one of thy cities which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, a man or a woman who doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah thy God by transgressing 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 and he doth go and serve other gods, and doth bow himself to them, and to the sun, or to the moon, or to any of the host of the heavens, which I have not 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 it hath been declared to thee, and thou hast heard, and hast searched diligently, and lo, truth; the thing is established; this abomination hath been done in Israel —
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 'Then thou hast brought out that man, or that woman, who hath done this evil thing, unto thy gates — the man or the woman — and thou hast stoned them with stones, and they have died.
sai a ɗauki namijin, ko ta mace wanda ya aikata wannan mugun abu zuwa ƙofar birni, a jajjefe wannan mutum sai ya mutu.
6 By the mouth of two witnesses or of three witnesses is he who is dead put to death; he is not put to death by the mouth of one witness;
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 is on him, in the first place, to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last; and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
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 'When anything is too hard for thee for judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke — matters of strife within thy gates — then thou hast risen, and gone up unto the place on which Jehovah thy God doth fix,
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 and hast come in unto the priests, the Levites, and unto the judge who is in those days, and hast inquired, and they have declared to thee the word of judgment,
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 and thou hast done according to the tenor of the word which they declare to thee ([they] of that place which Jehovah doth choose; and thou hast observed to do according to all that they direct thee.
Dole ku aikata hukuncin da suka yi a wurin da Ubangiji zai zaɓa. Ku lura fa, ku aikata kome da suka faɗa muku.
11 'According to the tenor of the law which they direct thee, and according to the judgment which they say to thee thou dost do; thou dost not turn aside from the word which they declare to thee, right or 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 And the man who acteth with presumption, so as not to hearken unto the priest (who is standing to serve there Jehovah thy God), or unto the judge, even that man hath died, and thou hast put away the evil thing 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 and all the people do hear and fear, and do not presume any more.
Dukan mutane kuwa za su ji, su kuma ji tsoro, ba kuwa za su ƙara yin rashin hankali kuma ba.
14 'When thou comest in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and hast possessed it, and dwelt in it, and thou hast said, Let me set over me a king like all the nations which [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 thou dost certainly set over thee a king on whom Jehovah doth fix; from the midst of thy brethren thou dost set over thee a king; thou art not able to set over thee a stranger, who is not thy brother.
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 'Only, he doth not multiply to himself horses, nor cause the people to turn back to Egypt, so as to multiply horses, seeing Jehovah hath said to you, Ye do not add to turn back in this way any more.
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 And he doth not multiply to himself wives, and his heart doth not turn aside, and silver and gold he doth not multiply to himself — exceedingly.
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 'And it hath been, when he sitteth on the throne of his kingdom, that he hath written for himself the copy of this law, on a book, from [that] before the priests the 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 and it hath been with him, and he hath read in it all days of his life, so that he doth learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law, and these statutes, to do 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 so that his heart is not high above his brethren, and so as not to turn aside from the command, right or left, so that he prolongeth days over his kingdom, he and his sons, in the midst of 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.
