5 “A ce akwai mai adalci wanda yake aikata abin da yake daidai da kuma gaskiya;
And a man, when he is righteous, And hath done judgment and righteousness,

In usury he doth not give, and increase taketh not, From perversity he turneth back his hand, True judgment he doth between man and man.

And — he hath begotten a son, A burglar — a shedder of blood, And he hath made a brother of one of these,
11 (ko da yake mahaifin bai yi ko ɗaya daga cikinsu ba). “Yakan ci abinci a duwatsun tsafi. Yakan ƙazantar da matar maƙwabci.
And he all those hath not done, For even on the mountains he hath eaten, And the wife of his neighbour he hath defiled,
12 Yakan ci zalin matalauta da mabukata. Yakan yi fashi. Ba ya mayar da abin da aka jinginar masa. Ya dogara ga gumaka. Yana aikata ayyukan banƙyama.
The afflicted and needy he hath oppressed, Plunder he hath taken violently away, A pledge he doth not return, And unto the idols he hath lifted up his eyes, Abomination he hath done!
13 Yakan ba da bashi da ruwa ya kuma karɓi riba mai yawa. Irin wannan mutum zai rayu? Ba zai rayu ba! Domin ya aikata dukan waɗannan abubuwa masu banƙyama, tabbatacce za a kashe shi, kuma hakkin jininsa zai zauna a kansa.

The soul that doth sin — it doth die. A son doth not bear of the iniquity of the father, And a father doth not bear of the iniquity of the son, The righteousness of the righteous is on him, And the wickedness of the wicked is on him.
21 “Amma in mugun mutum ya juya daga dukan zunubin da ya aikata ya kuma kiyaye dukan ƙa’idodina ya kuwa yi abin da yake daidai da kuma gaskiya, tabbatacce zai rayu; ba zai mutu ba.
And the wicked — when he turneth back From all his sins that he hath done, And he hath kept all My statutes, And hath done judgment and righteousness, He doth surely live, he doth not die.
