< Deuteronomy 21 >
1 'When one is found slain on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it — fallen in a field — it is not known who hath smitten him,
Tí a bá rí ọkùnrin tí a pa, ní ìdùbúlẹ̀ ní pápá nínú ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ń fún ọ láti jogún, tí a kò sì mọ ẹni tí ó pa á,
2 then have thine elders and thy judges gone out and measured unto the cities which [are] round about the slain one,
àwọn àgbàgbà yín yóò jáde lọ láti wọn jíjìnnà ibi òkú sí ìlú tí ó wà nítòsí.
3 and it hath been, the city which [is] near unto the slain one, even the elders of that city have taken a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, which hath not drawn in the yoke,
Nígbà náà ni àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú tí ó wà nítòsí òkú yóò mú ẹgbọrọ abo màlúù tí kò ì ṣiṣẹ́ rí àti tí kò sì fà nínú àjàgà rí,
4 and the elders of that city have brought down the heifer unto a hard valley, which is not tilled nor sown, and have beheaded there the heifer in the valley.
kí àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú náà kí wọn mú ẹgbọrọ abo màlúù náà sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá sí àfonífojì tí ó ní omi ṣíṣàn kan, tí a kò ro, tí a kò sì gbìn, kí wọn kí ó sì ṣẹ́ ọrùn ẹgbọrọ màlúù náà níbẹ̀ ní àfonífojì náà.
5 'And the priests, sons of Levi, have come nigh — for on them hath Jehovah thy God fixed to serve Him, and to bless in the name of Jehovah, and by their mouth is every strife, and every stroke —
Àwọn àlùfáà, ọmọ Lefi yóò wá síwájú, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ti yàn wọ́n láti ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un àti láti bùkún ní orúkọ Olúwa àti láti parí gbogbo ẹjọ́ àríyànjiyàn àti ọ̀rọ̀ ìlú.
6 and all the elders of that city, who are near unto the slain one, do wash their hands over the heifer which is beheaded in the valley,
Nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú tí ó wà nítòsí yóò wẹ ọwọ́ wọn lórí ẹgbọrọ abo màlúù tí a ti kan ọrùn rẹ̀ ní àfonífojì,
7 and they have answered and said, Our hands have not shed this blood, and our eyes have not seen —
wọn yóò sì sọ pé, “Ọwọ́ wa kò ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ yìí sílẹ̀, tàbí kí ojú wa rí i ní títa sílẹ̀.”
8 receive atonement for Thy people Israel, whom Thou hast ransomed, O Jehovah, and suffer not innocent blood in the midst of Thy people Israel; and the blood hath been pardoned to them,
Dáríjì, Olúwa, àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ni Israẹli, tí ìwọ ti dá sílẹ̀, àti kí ìwọ má ṣe gba ẹ̀bi ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ ní àárín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ní Israẹli. Ṣùgbọ́n kí a dárí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yìí jì.
9 and thou dost put away the innocent blood out of thy midst, for thou dost that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah.
Nígbà náà ni ìwọ wẹ̀ kúrò láàrín rẹ ẹ̀bi títa ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí o ti ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ níwájú Olúwa.
10 'When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God hath given them into thy hand, and thou hast taken captive its captivity,
Nígbà tí o bá lọ sí ogun sí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ sì fi wọ́n lé ọ lọ́wọ́ tí o sì mú àwọn ìgbèkùn,
11 and hast seen in the captivity a woman of fair form, and hast delighted in her, and hast taken to thee for a wife,
tí o sì rí obìnrin tí ó dára lára àwọn ìgbèkùn, tí o sì ní ìfẹ́ sí i, o lè mu u gẹ́gẹ́ bí aya à rẹ.
12 then thou hast brought her in unto the midst of thy household, and she hath shaved her head, and prepared her nails,
Mú u wá sí ilé e rẹ kí o sì jẹ́ kí ó fá irun orí rẹ̀, gé èékánná an rẹ̀,
13 and turned aside the raiment of her captivity from off her, and hath dwelt in thy house, and bewailed her father and her mother a month of days, and afterwards thou dost go in unto her and hast married her, and she hath been to thee for a wife:
kí o sì mú aṣọ tí ó wọ̀ nígbà tí ó di ìgbèkùn sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ kan. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti ń gbé ilé rẹ tí ó sì ti ṣọ̀fọ̀ baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ fún odidi oṣù kan, nígbà náà ni o lè tọ̀ ọ́ lọ kí o sì ṣe ọkọ rẹ̀ kí ó jẹ́ aya rẹ.
14 'And it hath been — if thou hast not delighted in her, that thou hast sent her away at her desire, and thou dost not at all sell her for money; thou dost not tyrannize over her, because that thou hast humbled her.
Bí inú rẹ̀ kò bá sì dùn sí i, jẹ́ kí ó lọ sí ibikíbi tí ó bá fẹ́. O kò gbọdọ̀ tà á tàbí lò ó bí ẹrú, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí o ti dójútì í.
15 'When a man hath two wives, the one loved and the other hated, and they have borne to him sons (the loved one and the hated one), and the first-born son hath been to the hated one;
Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ní ìyàwó méjì, tí ó sì fẹ́ ọ̀kan ṣùgbọ́n tí kò fẹ́ èkejì, tí àwọn méjèèjì sì bí àwọn ọmọkùnrin fún un ṣùgbọ́n tí àkọ́bí jẹ́ ọmọ ìyàwó rẹ̀ tí kò fẹ́ràn.
16 then it hath been, in the day of his causing his sons to inherit that which he hath, he is not able to declare first-born the son of the loved one, in the face of the son of the hated one — the first-born.
Nígbà tí ó bá ń pín ohun ìní rẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, kò gbọdọ̀ fi ẹ̀tọ́ àkọ́bí fún ọmọ ìyàwó tí kò fẹ́ràn.
17 But the first-born, son of the hated one, he doth acknowledge, to give to him a double portion of all that is found with him, for he [is] the beginning of his strength; to him [is] the right of the first-born.
Ó ní láti fi ipò ọmọ ìyàwó rẹ̀ tí kò fẹ́ràn fun un gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkọ́bí i rẹ̀ nípa fífún un ní ìlọ́po ìpín gbogbo ohun tí ó ní. Ọmọ yẹn ni àmì àkọ́kọ́ agbára baba rẹ̀. Ẹ̀tọ́ àkọ́bí jẹ́ tirẹ̀.
18 'When a man hath a son apostatizing and rebellious — he is not hearkening to the voice of his father, and to the voice of his mother, and they have chastised him, and he doth not hearken unto them —
Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ní aláìgbọ́ràn tàbí ọlọ̀tẹ̀ ọmọ tí kò gbọ́rọ̀ sí baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ tí kò sì ní í gbà tí wọ́n bá ń bá a wí,
19 then laid hold on him have his father and his mother, and they have brought him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place,
baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ yóò gbá a mú, wọn yóò mu wá fún àwọn àgbàgbà ní ẹnu-bodè ìlú u rẹ̀.
20 and have said unto the elders of his city, Our son — this one — is apostatizing and rebellious; he is not hearkening to our voice — a glutton and drunkard;
Wọn yóò sì wí fún àwọn àgbàgbà pé, “Ọmọ wa yìí jẹ́ aláìgbọ́ràn àti ọlọ̀tẹ̀. Kò ní gbọ́rọ̀ sí wa lẹ́nu. Ọ̀jẹun àti ọ̀mùtípara ni.”
21 and all the men of his city have stoned him with stones, and he hath died, and thou hast put away the evil out of thy midst, and all Israel do hear and fear.
Nígbà náà ni gbogbo ọkùnrin ìlú rẹ̀ yóò sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa. Ìwọ yóò sì mú ìwà ibi kúrò láàrín yín, gbogbo Israẹli yóò gbọ́, ẹ̀rù yóò sì bà wọ́n.
22 'And when there is in a man a sin — a cause of death, and he hath been put to death, and thou hast hanged him on a tree,
Bí ọkùnrin kan tí ó jẹ̀bi ẹ̀sùn bá ní láti kú tí ó sì kú, tí a sì gbé òkú rẹ̀ kọ́ sára igi,
23 his corpse doth not remain on the tree, for thou dost certainly bury him in that day — for a thing lightly esteemed of God [is] the hanged one — and thou dost not defile thy ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance.
o kò gbọdọ̀ fi òkú rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ sára igi ní gbogbo òru. Gbìyànjú láti sin ín ní ọjọ́ náà gan an, nítorí ẹni tí a bá gbé kọ́ sórí igi wà lábẹ́ ègún Ọlọ́run. Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ ba ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fún ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ogún jẹ́.
