Deteronòm 24
1 Si yon nonm marye ak yon fanm epi rive yon lè fanm lan pa fè l' plezi ankò, paske li dekouvri nan fanm lan yon bagay ki pa byen, l'a ekri yon papye divòs bay fanm lan, epi l'a voye l' tounen lakay papa l'.
Should a man marry a woman, but then isn't pleased with her because he finds out something shameful about her, he is allowed to write out a certificate of divorce for her, give it to her, and send her out of his house.
2 Apre sa, si fanm lan kite kay papa l', l' al marye ak yon lòt gason,
Suppose that after leaving his house, she goes marries another man,
3 sipoze dezyèm mari a tou ta rive pa vle wè l', epi li ekri yon lèt divòs ba li, epi li voye l' tounen lakay papa l' ankò, osinon sipoze dezyèm mari a ta rive mouri,
and suppose the second man also ends up hating her, writes out a certificate of divorce for her, gives it to her, and sends her out of his house—or he may happen to die.
4 lè sa a, premye mari a p'ap ka marye avè l' ankò. Se pou li konsidere fanm lan tankou yon moun ki pa nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye. Paske si li marye avè l' apre sa, l'ap fè yon bagay Seyè a pa vle wè. Piga nou rale madichon sou peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap ban nou pou rele nou pa nou an.
The first husband who divorced her is not permitted to marry her again after she was shamed, for that offends the Lord. You are not bring guilt upon the land that the Lord your God is giving you to own.
5 Si yon nonm fèk marye, li pa fèt pou l' al nan lagè, ni yo pa bezwen mande l' fè ankenn travay nan sèvis piblik pandan ennan. Konsa, pandan tan sa a, l'a lib pou l' rete lakay li pou l' fè kè madanm li kontan.
If a man has just got married, he is not to be sent to war or made to do any other duties. He is free to stay at home for one year and make his wife happy.
6 Lè n'ap prete yon moun lajan, nou pa gen dwa pran de wòl moulen li yo, pa menm yon sèl ladan yo, pou garanti. Si nou fè sa, se tankou si se te lavi moun lan menm nou te pran pou garanti.
Don't accept a pair of millstones, or even just an upper millstone, as security for a debt, because that would put the borrower's life in danger.
7 Si yo bare yon moun pèp Izrayèl ap kenbe yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li pou fè l' tounen esklav li osinon pou l' vann li, se pou yo touye l'. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
Anyone caught kidnapping a fellow Israelite must be executed, whether the kidnapper makes him a slave or sells him. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
8 Lè gen yon ka move maladi po, se pou nou sèten yo fè tou sa moun Levi yo mande fè. Se pou nou swiv tout regleman mwen te ba yo sou sa.
When it comes to infectious skin diseases, make sure you follow carefully all the instructions of the Levitical priests. Be careful to follow the orders I've given them.
9 Pa janm bliye sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te fè Miryam, lè nou t'ap soti kite peyi Lejip la.
Remember what the Lord your God did to Miriam on the journey out of Egypt.
10 Lè n'ap prete yon moun yon lajan sou garanti, nou pa gen dwa antre lakay li pou n' al pran sa l'ap ban nou pou garanti a.
If you lend anything to someone, don't go into their house to take some kind of security.
11 N'a rete deyò, n'a tann li pote garanti a ban nou deyò a.
Stand outside while they go inside and bring the security out to you.
12 Si se yon nonm ki pòv, pa kite rad li ban nou pou garanti a pase nwit lakay nou.
If he is a poor man he may give his cloak as security, but you must not keep it when you go to sleep.
13 Se pou nou tounen l' ba li lè solèy kouche, pou l' ka mete l' sou li lè l'ap dòmi. L'a genyen nou rekonesans, epi nou menm nou va fè yon bon zèv devan Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
Make sure you give it back by sunset, so that he can sleep in his own cloak and thank you, and you will be counted as doing good by the Lord your God.
14 Piga nou peze yon pòv malere k'ap travay pou lajan l', li te mèt yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou, li te mèt yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan peyi a nan yonn nan lavil nou yo.
Don't mistreat a paid servant who is poor and needy, whether he's an Israelite or a foreigner living in one of your towns.
15 Peye l' lajan l' chak jou, anvan solèy kouche, paske li pòv, li bezwen lajan an pou l' viv. Konsa, li p'ap bezwen rele Seyè a pou nou. Men, si sa rive, se nou menm k'ap antò.
Pay his wages every day before sunset, because he is poor and is relying on them. If you don't he may complain to the Lord about you, and you will be found guilty of sin.
16 Nou pa gen dwa touye yon papa pou krim pitit li fè. Ni nou pa gen dwa touye yon pitit pou krim papa l' te fè. Y'a touye yon moun pou krim li menm li fè.
Fathers are not to be executed because of their children, and children are not to be executed because of their fathers. Each person is to be executed because of their own sin.
17 Pa fè ankenn moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou lenjistis. Respekte dwa timoun ki san papa. Pa pran rad yon vèv an garanti pou lajan nou prete l'.
Don't treat foreigners or orphans unjustly; don't take a widow's cloak as security.
18 Chonje nou menm tou nou te esklav nan peyi Lejip. Se Seyè a menm, Bondye nou an, ki te delivre nou. Se poutèt sa mwen mande nou pou nou swiv regleman sa a.
Remember that you were once slaves in Egypt, and the Lord your God rescued you from that place. That's why I'm ordering you to do this.
19 Lè n'ap ranmase rekòt ble nan jaden nou epi nou bliye ranmase kèk grap ki tonbe atè, pa tounen al pran yo. N'a kite yo pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou, pou timoun san papa ak fanm ki pèdi mari yo. N'a fè sa pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ka beni nou nan tou sa n'ap fè.
If when you're harvesting in your field you forget a sheaf there, don't go back for it. Leave it for the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do.
20 Lè n'ap keyi grenn oliv, nou pa bezwen pase yon dezyèm fwa pou keyi sa ki te rete yo. N'a kite yo pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou yo, pou timoun san papa ak pou fanm ki pèdi mari yo.
When you shake the olive trees to knock down the olives, don't go over the branches again. What's left is for the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows.
21 Lè nou fin koupe grap rezen nan jaden nou yo, pa tounen yon dezyèm fwa anba chak pye rezen pou repase branch yo. Sa ki va rete a, n'a kite yo pou moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou yo, pou timoun ki san papa ak pou fanm ki pèdi mari yo.
When you harvest the grapes in your vineyard, don't go over the vines again. What's left is for the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows.
22 Se pou nou toujou chonje yon lè nou te esklav nan peyi Lejip. Se poutèt sa mwen mande non pou nou swiv lòd mwen ban nou la a.
Remember you were once slaves in Egypt. That's why I'm ordering you to do this.
