Deuteronomy 22
1 'Thou dost not see the ox of thy brother or his sheep driven away, and hast hidden thyself from them, thou dost certainly turn them back to thy brother;
Kama ukimwona ngʼombe au kondoo wa ndugu yako anapotea, usipuuze, bali uhakikishe unamrudisha kwa mwenyewe.
2 and if thy brother [is] not near unto thee, and thou hast not known him, then thou hast removed it unto the midst of thy house, and it hath been with thee till thy brother seek it, and thou hast given it back to him;
Ikiwa huyo ndugu haishi karibu nawe au kama hufahamu yeye ni nani, mchukue nyumbani kwako huyo mnyama umweke mpaka mwenyewe aje kumtafuta. Ndipo umrudishie.
3 and so thou dost to his ass, and so thou dost to his garment, and so thou dost to any lost thing of thy brother's, which is lost by him, and thou hast found it; thou art not able to hide thyself.
Fanya vivyo hivyo ukimkuta punda wa nduguyo au joho lake au chochote alichopoteza. Usipuuze jambo hilo.
4 'Thou dost not see the ass of thy brother, or his ox, falling in the way, and hast hid thyself from them; thou dost certainly raise [them] up with him.
Kama ukimwona punda wa nduguyo au ngʼombe wake ameanguka barabarani, usipuuze jambo hilo. Msaidie asimame kwa miguu yake.
5 'The habiliments of a man are not on a woman, nor doth a man put on the garment of a woman, for the abomination of Jehovah thy God [is] any one doing these.
Haimpasi mwanamke kuvaa nguo za kiume wala mwanaume kuvaa nguo za kike, kwa maana Bwana Mungu wenu anachukia yeyote ambaye hufanya hivi.
6 'When a bird's nest cometh before thee in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, brood or eggs, and the mother sitting on the brood or on the eggs, thou dost not take the mother with the young ones;
Kama ukikuta kiota cha ndege kando ya barabara, iwe juu ya mti au chini, naye ndege amelala juu ya makinda au mayai, usimchukue huyo ndege pamoja na makinda yake.
7 thou dost certainly send away the mother, and the young ones dost take to thyself, so that it is well with thee, and thou hast prolonged days.
Waweza kuchukua makinda, lakini uwe na hakika ya kumwacha huyo ndege, ili upate kufanikiwa na uweze kuishi maisha marefu.
8 'When thou buildest a new house, then thou hast made a parapet to thy roof, and thou dost not put blood on thy house when one falleth from it.
Wakati unapojenga nyumba mpya, fanya ukuta wa kuzuia kandokando ya dari ili usijiletee hatia ya kumwaga damu juu ya nyumba yako ikiwa yeyote ataanguka kutoka humo.
9 'Thou dost not sow thy vineyard [with] divers things, lest the fulness of the seed which thou dost sow, and the increase of the vineyard, be separated.
Usipande aina mbili za mbegu katika shamba lako la mizabibu; ikiwa utafanya hivyo, si mazao utakayopanda tu yatakuwa najisi, bali nayo matunda ya shamba la mizabibu pia.
10 'Thou dost not plow with an ox and with an ass together.
Usilime kwa maksai aliyefungwa nira pamoja na punda.
11 'Thou dost not put on a mixed cloth, wool and linen together.
Usivae nguo za sufu na kitani zilizofumwa pamoja.
12 'Fringes thou dost make to thee on the four skirts of thy covering with which thou dost cover [thyself].
Fanya vishada kwenye pembe nne za joho unalovaa.
13 'When a man taketh a wife, and hath gone in unto her, and hated her,
Ikiwa mtu atamwoa mke na, baada ya kufanya naye tendo la ndoa, akamchukia,
14 and laid against her actions of words, and brought out against her an evil name, and said, This woman I have taken, and I draw near unto her, and I have not found in her tokens of virginity:
akimsingizia na kumwita jina baya, akisema, “Nilimwoa mwanamke huyu, lakini nilipomkaribia sikupata uthibitisho wa ubikira wake”
15 'Then hath the father of the damsel — and her mother — taken and brought out the tokens of virginity of the damsel unto the elders of the city in the gate,
ndipo baba na mama wa msichana wataleta uthibitisho kwamba alikuwa bikira kwa wazee wa mji kwenye lango.
16 and the father of the damsel hath said unto the elders, My daughter I have given to this man for a wife, and he doth hate her;
Baba wa msichana atawaambia wazee, “Nilimwoza binti yangu kwa huyu mwanaume, lakini hampendi.
17 and lo, he hath laid actions of words, saying, I have not found to thy daughter tokens of virginity — and these [are] the tokens of the virginity of my daughter! and they have spread out the garment before the elders of the city.
Sasa amemsingizia na kusema, ‘Sikumkuta huyu binti akiwa bikira.’ Lakini hapa kuna uthibitisho wa ubikira wa binti yangu.” Kisha wazazi wake wataonyesha nguo zake kwa wazee wa mji,
18 'And the elders of that city have taken the man, and chastise him,
nao wazee watamchukua huyo mwanaume na kumwadhibu.
19 and fined him a hundred silverlings, and given to the father of the damsel, because he hath brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel, and she is to him for a wife, he is not able to send her away all his days.
Watamtoza shekeli mia moja za fedha na kupewa wazazi wa msichana, kwa sababu mwanaume huyu amempa bikira wa Kiisraeli jina baya. Ataendelea kuwa mke wake; kamwe hawezi kumpa talaka siku zote za maisha yake.
20 'And if this thing hath been truth — tokens of virginity have not been found for the damsel —
Hata hivyo, kama shtaka ni la kweli na hakuna uthibitisho juu ya ubikira wa huyo msichana ulioweza kupatikana,
21 then they have brought out the damsel unto the opening of her father's house, and stoned her have the men of her city with stones, and she hath died, for she hath done folly in Israel, to go a-whoring [in] her father's house; and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
huyo msichana ataletwa kwenye mlango wa nyumba ya baba yake, na hapo watu wa mji wake watampiga kwa mawe hadi afe. Amefanya kitu cha aibu katika Israeli kwa kufanya ukahaba akiwa nyumbani kwa babaye. Lazima mwondoe uovu katikati yenu.
22 'When a man is found lying with a woman, married to a husband, then they have died even both of them, the man who is lying with the woman, also the woman; and thou hast put away the evil thing out of Israel.
Ikiwa mwanaume atakutwa akizini na mke wa mtu mwingine, wote wawili, mwanaume na mwanamke aliyezini naye, lazima wauawe. Lazima mwondoe uovu katika Israeli.
23 'When there is a damsel, a virgin, betrothed to a man, and a man hath found her in a city, and lain with her;
Ikiwa mwanaume atakutana na bikira mjini ambaye ameposwa na mtu akazini naye,
24 then ye have brought them both out unto the gate of that city, and stoned them with stones, and they have died: — the damsel, because that she hath not cried, [being] in a city; and the man, because that he hath humbled his neighbour's wife; and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
utawachukua wote wawili kwenye lango la mji na kuwapiga kwa mawe mpaka wafe; yule msichana kwa kuwa alikuwa mjini na hakupiga kelele kuomba msaada, na yule mwanaume kwa sababu amemtenda jeuri mke wa mtu mwingine. Lazima mwondoe uovu katikati yenu.
25 'And if in a field the man find the damsel who is betrothed, and the man hath laid hold on her, and lain with her, then hath the man who hath lain with her died alone;
Lakini ikiwa itatokea mwanaume akakutana na msichana aliyeposwa huko mashambani, akambaka, mwanaume aliyefanya hivi peke yake ndiye atakayeuawa.
26 and to the damsel thou dost not do anything, the damsel hath no deadly sin; for as a man riseth against his neighbour and hath murdered him — the life, so [is] this thing;
Usimtendee msichana yule jambo lolote; hajafanya dhambi inayostahili kifo. Shauri hili ni kama lile la yeyote ambaye anamshambulia na kumuua kwa makusudi jirani yake,
27 for in a field he found her, she hath cried — the damsel who is betrothed — and she hath no saviour.
kwa maana mwanaume huyo alimkuta msichana huko mashambani, na ingawa msichana aliyeposwa alipiga kelele, hapakuwa na mtu wa kumwokoa.
28 'When a man findeth a damsel, a virgin who is not betrothed, and hath caught her, and lain with her, and they have been found,
Ikiwa itatokea mwanaume akutane na bikira ambaye hajaposwa na kumbaka nao wakakutwa,
29 then hath the man who is lying with her given to the father of the damsel fifty silverlings, and to him she is for a wife; because that he hath humbled her, he is not able to send her away all his days.
mwanaume atamlipa baba wa msichana shekeli hamsini za fedha. Ni lazima amwoe huyo msichana, kwa maana amemfanyia jeuri. Kamwe hawezi kumpa talaka siku zote za maisha yake.
30 'A man doth not take his father's wife, nor uncover his father's skirt.
Mwanaume asimwoe mke wa baba yake; kamwe asidhalilishe kitanda cha baba yake.
