Egzòd 22
1 Si yon nonm ta vòlè yon bèf oswa yon mouton epi kòche li oswa vann li, li va peye senk bèf pou bèf la, e kat mouton pou mouton an.
When a man stealeth an ox or a sheep, and slayeth it, or selleth it, with five of the herd, shall he make good—for the ox, or with four of the flock, for the sheep.
2 Si vòlè a vin kenbe pandan l ap fonse antre, e bat jis li vin mouri, p ap gen koupabilite pou san li sou kont mèt kay la.
If, in the place of breaking in, the thief be found and he is smitten so that he dieth, there is due for him no shedding of blood:
3 Men si solèy la gen tan leve sou li, va genyen koupabilite san sou li. Li va anverite peye dedonmajman an. Si li pa posede anyen, alò, y ap vann li pou vòl sa a.
should the sun have arisen upon him, there would be shedding of blood due for him, —he is surely to make restitution, if he hath nothing, then is he to be sold, for his theft.
4 Si sa li te vòlè a twouve nan posesyon li, menm si se yon bourik, oswa yon mouton, li va peye li doub.
If the thing stolen is found in his hand—whether ox or ass or sheep, alive, with two, shall he make restitution.
5 Si yon mesye kite bèt li yo manje nan yon chan, oswa yon jaden jiskaske jaden an fini nèt, e kite bèt li lage pou li manje nan chan a yon lòt moun, li va peye dedonmajman an soti nan pi bon pati tè li, ak meyè pati chan rezen li lan.
When a man causeth a field or a vineyard to be depastured, or hath sent in his own cattle and stripped the field of another, he shall, surely make restitution, out of his own field, according to the yield thereof; or if, all the field, he depasture, with the best of his own field, or with the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
6 Si yon dife vin parèt, e kouri jwenn bwa pikan yo, jis rive sereyal k ap rasanble nan chan an, oswa sereyal chan an li menm pran dife, sila ki te limen dife a va anverite peye.
When a fire breaketh out and hath come upon thorns and so there is consumed a stack of sheaves, or the standing corn, or the field, he that kindled the fire, shall surely make restitution.
7 Si yon mesye bay vwazen li lajan oswa byen li pou kenbe pou li, e li vòlè soti lakay mesye a, depi vòlè a kenbe, li va peye doub.
When a man giveth unto his neighbour silver or jewelry, to keep, and it is stolen out of the house of the man:
8 Si yo pa jwenn vòlè a, alò, mèt kay la va parèt devan jij yo pou konstate si li te mete men li sou byen vwazen li an.
if the thief be found, he shall give in restitution double, if the thief be not found, then shall the owner of the house be brought near unto God to swear that he hath not laid his hand on the property of his neighbour.
9 Pou chak vyòl konfyans, kèlkeswa ke se pou bèf, pou bourik, pou mouton, pou rad, oswa pou nenpòt bagay ki pèdi, si yon moun kapab di: “Sila se pa m nan!”, yo toude va vini devan jij yo. Konsa, sila ke jij yo kondane a va peye doub a vwazen li an.
For any affair of trespass—for an ox, for an ass, for a sheep, for a mantle for anything lost as to which one could say—This is it, unto God, shall come the affair of them both, —he whom God shall condemn, shall make restitution of double to his neighbour.
10 Si yon mesye bay vwazen li yon bourik, yon bèf, yon mouton, oswa nenpòt bèt pou kenbe pou li, epi li vin mouri, oswa blese, oswa pouse ale lè moun pa wè,
When a man delivereth unto his neighbour, an ass, or an ox or a sheep, or any beast, to keep, —and it dieth or is fractured, or is driven away, no one beholding,
11 yon sèman devan SENYÈ a va fèt pa yo dèske li pa t mete men l sou byen a vwazen li. Konsa, mèt li va aksepte li, e li p ap oblije fè peye dedonmajman.
the oath of Yahweh, shall come between them both, That he hath not laid his hand on the property of his neighbour, —then shall the owner thereof accept it and he shall not make restitution.
12 Men si li te vrèman vòlè li, li va peye dedonmajman a mèt li.
But, if it be verily stolen, from him, he shall make restitution to the owner thereof.
13 Si li chire an mòso, kite sa mennen kòm evidans. Li p ap peye dedonmajman pou sa ki chire an moso a.
If it be, verily torn in pieces, he shall bring it in as a witness—for that which was torn, he shall not make restitution.
14 Si yon mesye prete yon bagay nan men vwazen li, e sa vin donmaje oswa mouri pandan mèt li pa la, li va peye tout rekonpans.
And when a man asketh aught of his neighbour, and it is fractured or dieth, its owner, not being with it, he shall, surely make restitution.
15 Si mèt li la avè l, li p ap peye rekonpans. Si se lwaye, sa te vini ak frè lwaye li.
If, its owner, was with it, he shall not make restitution, —if it is, hired, it cometh into its hire.
16 Si yon mesye sedwi yon vyèj ki poko fiyanse, e li vin kouche avèk li, li dwe peye li yon frè fiyanse pou l ka vin madanm li.
And, when a man enticeth a virgin who is not betrothed, and lieth with her, he shall, surely pay a purchase-price, that she may be his wife.
17 Si papa li refize nèt pou ba li fi li, li va peye lajan ki menm fòs avèk frè fiyanse a pou vyèj yo.
If her father utterly refuse, to give her to him, silver, shall he weigh out, according to the purchase-price of virgins.
18 Ou pa pou kite yon majisyen viv.
A sorceress, shalt thou not suffer to live.
19 Nenpòt moun ki kouche avèk yon bèt, va asireman mete a lanmò.
Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 Sila ki fè sakrifis a nenpòt dye, sof ke SENYÈ a sèl, va detwi nèt.
He that sacrificeth to the gods shall be devoted to destruction, —except [he sacrificeth] to Yahweh alone.
21 Ou pa pou fè mal a yon etranje, ni oprime li, paske se te etranje nou te ye nan peyi Égypte la.
And, a sojourner, shalt thou not tread down neither shalt thou drive him away, —for sojourners, ye became in the land of Egypt.
22 Ou pa pou oprime okenn vèv, ni òfelen.
Neither widow nor fatherless, shalt thou humiliate:
23 Si ou oprime li, e li kriye ban Mwen, Mwen va anverite tande kri li;
if thou, do humiliate, him, when he in anywise crieth out unto me, I will, surely hear, his outcry:
24 epi kòlè Mwen va vin ogmante. Mwen va touye ou avèk nepe, e madanm ou yo va vin vèv, e pitit ou yo va vin san papa.
so shall kindle mine anger, and I will slay you with the sword, —and your wives, shall become widows, and your, sons fatherless.
25 Si ou prete lajan a pèp Mwen an, a malere yo pami nou yo, ou pa pou aji kòm kreditè anvè li. Ou pa pou mande frè enterè.
If, silver, thou wilt lend unto my people—unto the humbled one by thee, thou shalt not be to him like one that lendeth on interest, —thou shalt not lay upon him interest.
26 Si ou janmen pran manto vwazen ou kòm garanti, fòk ou remèt li li avan solèy la kouche,
If thou, do take in pledge, the mantle of thy neighbour, by the going in of the sun, shalt thou restore it to him;
27 paske se sa sèl ki kouvri li. Se manto pou kò li. Kisa ankò li kab sèvi pou l dòmi? Epi li va rive ke lè li kriye fò, Mwen va tande li, paske Mwen ranpli avèk mizerikòd.
for that is his only covering, that, is his mantle, for his skin, —wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass when he maketh outcry unto me, then will I hear because, gracious, I am.
28 Ou pa pou modi Bondye, ni modi yon chèf pèp ou.
God, shalt thou not revile, —and a prince among thy people, shalt thou not curse.
29 Ou pa pou fè reta avèk ofrann ki sòti nan rekòlt la avèk diven an. Premye ne nan fis ou yo, ou va ban Mwen l.
Thy fulness and thine outflow, shalt thou not delay, —the firstborn of thy sons, shalt thou give to me.
30 Ou va fè menm bagay la avèk bèf ou yo, ak mouton ou yo. Li va rete avèk manman l pandan sèt jou, e nan uityèm jou a ou va ban Mwen li.
Thus, shalt thou do with thine ox with thy sheep, —seven days, shall it be with its dam, on the eighth day, shalt thou give it to me.
31 Nou va dèzòm ki sen pou Mwen; konsa, nou p ap manje okenn chè ki chire an mòso nan chan. Nou va jete li bay chen.
Holy men, therefore shall ye truly become to me, —and flesh in the field torn to pieces, shall ye not eat, to the dogs, shall ye cast it.
