Mose 5 24
1 “Ne ŋutsu aɖe srɔ̃ ƒe nu meganyo eŋu o la, ŋutsu la aŋlɔ srɔ̃gbegbalẽ atsɔ na srɔ̃a, eye wòanyae.
When a man takes a wife and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favour in his eyes because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a certificate of divorce, put it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
2 Ne nyɔnu la gaɖe srɔ̃,
When she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.
3 eye srɔ̃a evelia hã gagbee alo ku la,
If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a certificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife;
4 srɔ̃ŋutsu gbãtɔ mekpɔ mɔ agaɖee o, elabena ŋutsu la do ŋunyɔ nyɔnu la kpɔ. Nu sia ahe vɔ̃ va anyigba si Yehowa, wò Mawu la le nawòm la dzi.
her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled; for that would be an abomination to the LORD. You shall not cause the land to sin, which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance.
5 “Ne ŋutsu aɖe ɖe srɔ̃ eteƒe medidi o la, mègaɖoe ɖe aʋa loo alo nàde dɔ tɔxɛ aɖeke asi nɛ o. Na wòakpɔ vovo ƒe blibo ɖeka, anɔ aƒe me, eye wòakpɔ dzidzɔ kple srɔ̃a.”
When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be assigned any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
6 “Se meɖe mɔ be woaxɔ wɔtute abe awɔbanu ene o, elabena eyae nye dɔwɔnu si naa nuɖuɖu ame si tɔ wònye.
No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone as a pledge, for he takes a life in pledge.
7 Ne ame aɖe fi nɔvia Israelvi, eye wòwɔe eƒe kluvi alo dzrae la, ele be amefila la naku ale be nu vɔ̃ naɖe ɖa le mia dome.
If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.
8 “Ele be nàkpɔ egbɔ be wowɔ nunɔlawo ƒe sewo dzi pɛpɛpɛ le anyidzedɔ, dɔdzĩ kple kpodɔ gome, elabena mede se siwo dzi miawɔ ɖo nyaɖenyanui la na nunɔlawo.
Be careful in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently and do according to all that the Levitical priests teach you. As I commanded them, so you shall observe to do.
9 Ɖo ŋku nu si Yehowa, wò Mawu la wɔ Miriam esi miegbɔna tso Egipte la dzi.
Remember what the LORD your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.
10 “Ne èɣe nane na ame aɖe la, mèkpɔ mɔ nàyi eƒe aƒe me be yeaxɔ awɔbanu aɖeke o.
When you lend your neighbour any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge.
11 Nɔ aƒea godo! Na ame si nèɣe nu la na la ŋutɔ natsɔ awɔbanu la vɛ na wò.
You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge outside to you.
12 Ne amea da ahe, eye wòtsɔ eƒe avɔ na wò abe awɔbanu ene la, mele be nàtsyɔ avɔ la amlɔ anyie o.
If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep with his pledge.
13 Trɔe yi nɛ ne ɣe ɖo to, ale be wòate ŋu awɔ eŋu dɔ le zã me, ekema woayra wò. Yehowa, wò Mawu la abui dzɔdzɔenyenyee na wò.
You shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment and bless you. It shall be righteousness to you before the LORD your God.
14 “Mègate agbatedɔwɔla aɖeke ɖe to gbeɖe o, eɖanye nɔviwò Israelvi loo alo amedzro si le wò du me o.
You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who are in your land within your gates.
15 Xe eƒe fetu nɛ gbe sia gbe hafi ɣe naɖo to, elabena esi wòda ahe ta la, ehiã fetu la enumake. Ne mèxee nɛ enumake o la, afa konyi tso ŋuwò, eye Yehowa abui nu vɔ̃e na wò.”
In his day you shall give him his wages, neither shall the sun go down on it, for he is poor and sets his heart on it, lest he cry against you to the LORD, and it be sin to you.
16 “Womawu fofowo ɖe wo viwo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o, eye nenema ke womawu viwo ɖe wo fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o. Woawu ame sia ame ɖe eya ŋutɔ ko ƒe nu vɔ̃ ta.
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.
17 “Mègate amedzrowo kple tsyɔ̃eviwo ƒe nya dzɔdzɔe ɖe to o, eye mègaxɔ ahosi aɖeke ƒe avɔ abe awɔbanu ene o.
You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, nor take a widow’s clothing in pledge;
18 Ɖo ŋku edzi ɣe sia ɣi be mienye kluviwo le Egipte kpɔ, eye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ɖe mi, eya tae mede se sia na mi.
but you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
19 Ne èle wò nukuwo xam le wò agble me, eye nèŋlɔ nuku babla aɖe be ɖe agblea me la, mègatrɔ yi ɖatsɔe o. Gblẽe ɖi na amedzrowo, tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo. Ekema Yehowa, wò Mawu la ayra wò asinudɔwo katã woadze edzi na wò.
When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
20 Ne ègbe kutsetsewo le amiti dzi la, mègatsa atilɔawo dzi zi evelia o. Gblẽ kutsetse siwo atsi atilɔawo dzi la ɖi na amedzrowo, tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo.
When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 Se sia kee le wò wain tsetsewo gbegbe hã ŋu. Ne ègbe wò wain tsetsewo la, mègatsa le alɔawo dzi zi evelia o, ke boŋ gblẽ kutsetse siwo tsi atia dzi la ɖi na hiãtɔwo.
When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean it after yourselves. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 Ɖo ŋku edzi be mienye kluviwo le Egipte kpɔ, eya tae mele se sia dem na mi.”
You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
