Deteronòm 22
1 “Nou pa pou wè bèf a vwazen parèy nou, oswa mouton k ap pati, pou nou pa okipe yo. Anverite, nou va mennen yo retounen bay vwazen parèy nou an.
If you see your brother’s ox or sheep straying, you must not ignore it; be sure to return it to your brother.
2 Si vwazen nou an pa pre nou, oswa nou pa konnen li, alò, nou va mennen li lakay nou, e li va rete la jiskaske vwazen nou vin chache li, pou nou remèt li a li menm.
If your brother does not live near you, or if you do not know who he is, you are to take the animal home to remain with you until your brother comes seeking it; then you can return it to him.
3 Konsa, nou va fè avèk bourik li. Nou va fè menm jan an avèk manto li. Nou va fè menm jan an avèk nenpòt bagay ke li pèdi lè nou twouve l. Ou pa gen dwa neglije bagay sa yo.
And you shall do the same for his donkey, his cloak, or anything your brother has lost and you have found. You must not ignore it.
4 “Nou pa pou wè bourik, ni bèf a vwazen nou ki tonbe nan chemen, pou nou pa okipe yo. Anverite, nou va ede li leve yo.
If you see your brother’s donkey or ox fallen on the road, you must not ignore it; you must help him lift it up.
5 “Yon fanm pa pou mete rad gason, ni gason mete rad fanm. Lè yon moun fè bagay sa a, yo abominab a SENYÈ Bondye nou an.
A woman must not wear men’s clothing, and a man must not wear women’s clothing, for whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD your God.
6 “Si nou vin jwenn yon nich zwazo akote chemen an, nan nenpòt pyebwa oswa atè, avèk ti jèn zwazo yo oswa ze yo, epi manman an chita sou ti zwazo oswa sou ze yo, nou pa kapab pran manman an ansanm avèk ti jèn zwazo yo.
If you come across a bird’s nest with chicks or eggs, either in a tree or on the ground along the road, and the mother is sitting on the chicks or eggs, you must not take the mother along with the young.
7 Nou va, anverite, kite manman an sòti lib. Men jèn ti zwazo yo, nou kapab pran yo pou nou menm, pou sa kapab byen pou nou e pou nou kapab viv pandan anpil jou.
You may take the young, but be sure to let the mother go, so that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.
8 “Lè nou bati yon kay tounèf, nou va fè yon balistrad ki antoure teras twati a pou nou pa vin koupab de san si yon moun ta vin tonbe.
If you build a new house, you are to construct a railing around your roof, so that you do not bring bloodguilt on your house if someone falls from it.
9 “Nou pa pou plante chan rezen an avèk de kalite semans; oswa, tout pwodwi ki sòti nan sa nou plante a, ak pwodwi chan rezen an, va vin gate.
Do not plant your vineyard with two types of seed; if you do, the entire harvest will be defiled —both the crop you plant and the fruit of your vineyard.
10 “Nou pa pou raboure avèk yon bèf ak yon bourik ansanm.
Do not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked together.
11 “Nou pa pou mete twal ki mele len avèk twal fen tankou koton ansanm.
Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together.
12 Nou va fè ponpon nan kat kwen vètman ki kouvri nou yo.
You are to make tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear.
13 “Si yon nonm pran yon madanm pou ale sou kabann avèk li, epi pita li vin vire kont li
Suppose a man marries a woman, has relations with her, and comes to hate her,
14 pou l akize li de zak k ap gate repitasyon li, pou l di: ‘Mwen te pran fanm sa a, men lè m te pwoche l, mwen pa t twouve li vyèj,’
and he then accuses her of shameful conduct and gives her a bad name, saying, “I married this woman and had relations with her, but I discovered she was not a virgin.”
15 alò, papa avèk manman fi a va pran li e prezante temwayaj prèv ke li te vyèj bay ansyen lavil yo devan pòtay la.
Then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring the proof of her virginity to the city elders at the gate
16 Papa a fi a va di a ansyen yo: ‘Mwen te bay pitit mwen a mesye sila a kòm madanm, men li te vire kont li.
and say to the elders, “I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he has come to hate her.
17 Konsa, veye byen, li te akize li a zak ki gate repitasyon li. Li te di: “Mwen pa t twouve fi nou an vyèj.” Men temwayaj vijinite li.’ Yo va ouvri vètman an devan ansyen lavil la.
And now he has accused her of shameful conduct, saying, ‘I discovered that your daughter was not a virgin.’ But here is the proof of her virginity.” And they shall spread out the cloth before the city elders.
18 Konsa, ansyen yo va pran nonm nan pou ba li chatiman.
Then the elders of that city shall take the man and punish him.
19 Konsa, yo va fè l peye san sik an ajan, pou bay a papa fi a, akoz li te fè difamasyon piblikman sou yon fi an Israël. Epi konsa, li va rete toujou kòm madanm li. Li p ap ka divòse ak li pandan tout jou li yo.
They are also to fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, because this man has given a virgin of Israel a bad name. And she shall remain his wife; he must not divorce her as long as he lives.
20 “Men si akizasyon sa a vrè, ke fi a pa t vyèj,
If, however, this accusation is true, and no proof of the young woman’s virginity can be found,
21 alò, yo va mennen fi a deyò pòtay lakay papa l la, epi mesye lavil yo va lapide li jiskaske li mouri akoz li te komèt yon betiz lèd an Israël, lè l te fè pwostitisyon lakay papa l la. Konsa, nou va retire mal la pami nou.
she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house, and there the men of her city will stone her to death. For she has committed an outrage in Israel by being promiscuous in her father’s house. So you must purge the evil from among you.
22 “Si yo twouve yon nonm kouche avèk yon fanm ki marye, alò, yo toude va mouri, nonm ki te kouche avè l la, ansanm ak fanm nan. Konsa, nou va retire mal la sou Israël.
If a man is found lying with another man’s wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die. You must purge the evil from Israel.
23 “Si gen yon fi ki vyèj ki fiyanse ak yon nonm, epi yon lòt mesye twouve li nan vil la, e kouche avèk li,
If there is a virgin pledged in marriage to a man, and another man encounters her in the city and sleeps with her,
24 alò, nou va mennen yo toude deyò pòtay vil sa a, epi nou va lapide yo ak kout wòch jiska lanmò. Fi a, akoz li pa t kriye fò nan vil la, e mesye a, akoz li te vyole fanm vwazen li an. Konsa, nou va retire mal la pami nou.
you must take both of them out to the gate of that city and stone them to death—the young woman because she did not cry out in the city, and the man because he has violated his neighbor’s wife. So you must purge the evil from among you.
25 “Men si se nan chan deyò ke mesye a vin jwenn fi ki fiyanse a; epi mesye a fòse li kouche avèk li; alò, sèlman mesye ki kouche avèk li a, va mouri.
But if the man encounters a betrothed woman in the open country, and he overpowers her and lies with her, only the man who has done this must die.
26 Men nou p ap fè fi a anyen. Nanpwen peche nan fi a ki merite lanmò; paske menm jan ke yon nonm leve kont vwazen li pou touye li a, se konsa ka sa a ye.
Do nothing to the young woman, because she has committed no sin worthy of death. This case is just like one in which a man attacks his neighbor and murders him.
27 Lè li te twouve li nan chan an, fi fiyanse a te kriye fò, men li pa t gen pèsòn la pou sove l.
When he found her in the field, the betrothed woman cried out, but there was no one to save her.
28 “Si yon nonm twouve yon fi ki vyèj, ki pa fiyanse, epi sezi li pou kouche avèk li, e li vin dekouvri,
If a man encounters a virgin who is not pledged in marriage, and he seizes her and lies with her, and they are discovered,
29 alò, mesye ki te kouche avè l la, va bay papa fi a senkant sik an ajan. Konsa, li va devni madanm li akoz li te imilye li. Li pa kapab divòse ak li pandan tout jou li yo.
then the man who lay with her must pay the young woman’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she must become his wife because he has violated her. He must not divorce her as long as he lives.
30 Yon gason pa pou pran madanm a papa li. Li pa pou dekouvri jip papa l.
A man is not to marry his father’s wife, so that he will not dishonor his father’s marriage bed.
