Diuteronomi 22
1 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ehi, maọbụ atụrụ nwanna gị ka ọ na-akpafu, emela dịka a ga-asị na ị hụghị ya, jide ya, kpụlaara ya onye nwe ya.
“You do not see the ox of your brother or his sheep driven away, and have hidden yourself from them, you certainly turn them back to your brother;
2 Ọ bụrụ na ị maghị onye nwe ya, maọbụ na nwanna gị ebighị nso, were ya laa nʼụlọ gị, hapụ ya nʼebe ahụ tutu onye nwe ya achọwa ya, mgbe ahụ ka ị ga-ewere ya nyeghachi ya.
and if your brother [is] not near to you, and you have not known him, then you have removed it to the midst of your house, and it has been with you until your brother seeks it, and you have given it back to him;
3 Otu a kwa ka ị ga-eme ma ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu nwanna gị, maọbụ uwe, maọbụ ihe ọbụla ị ga-atụtụta. Were ya debere onye nwe ya.
and so you do to his donkey, and so you do to his garment, and so you do to any lost thing of your brother’s, which is lost by him, and you have found it; you are not able to hide yourself.
4 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu, maọbụ ehi nwanna gị ka ha dara nʼụzọ, elela anya nʼebe ọzọ, gaa nyere ya aka bulie ya.
You do not see the donkey of your brother, or his ox, falling in the way, and have hid yourself from them; you certainly raise [them] up for him.
5 Nwanyị ekwesighị iyi uwe ndị ikom, nwoke agaghị eyikwa uwe ndị inyom. Nʼihi na ihe arụ ka ọ bụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
Anything of a man is not on a woman, nor does a man put on the garment of a woman, for anyone doing these [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
6 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ akwụ nnụnụ tọgbọ nʼala, maọbụ nke dị nʼelu osisi, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ bụ nnụnụ nke nọ nʼelu ụmụ ya, maọbụ nʼelu akwa ya, ewerela nne na ụmụ nnụnụ ya.
When a bird’s nest comes before you in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, [with] brood or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the brood or on the eggs, you do not take the mother with the young ones;
7 Hapụ nne nnụnụ ka ọ laa, ma were naanị ụmụ ya. Ihe ga-agakwara gị nke ọma nʼihi ya, ị ga-enwekwa ndụ ogologo.
you certainly send the mother away, and take the young ones for yourself, so that it is well with you and you have prolonged days.
8 Mgbe i wuru ụlọ, wuokwa ihe mgbochi gburugburu elu ya, nke ga-eme ka onye ọbụla ghara isi nʼelu ya dapụ, si otu a wetara ụlọ na onye nwe ya ikpe ọmụma nke iwufu ọbara.
When you build a new house, then you have made a parapet for your roof, and you do not put blood on your house when one falls from it.
9 Akụla ụdị mkpụrụ abụọ nʼubi vaịnị gị. Ọ bụrụ na i mee otu a, ihe ọkụkụ ndị a, na mkpụrụ ha mịrị ga-abụ ihe rụrụ arụ.
You do not sow your vineyard [with] two kinds [of seed], lest the fullness of the seed which you sow and the increase of the vineyard be separated.
10 Ejikọla ehi na ịnyịnya ibu maka ịdọ ihe e ji akọ ala ubi.
You do not plow with an ox and with a donkey together.
11 Eyila uwe e ji ụzọ ihe abụọ kpaa, dịka uwe ajị anụ na ogho ọcha kpaa.
You do not put on mixed material, wool and linens together.
12 Ị ga-akpanyere onwe gị ihe ogho akpara akpa, nʼakụkụ anọ nke uwe mgbokwasị gị.
You make fringes for yourself on the four skirts of your covering with which you cover [yourself].
13 Ọ bụrụ na nwoke alụọ nwaagbọghọ, mesie mgbe o dinakwuru ya kpebie nʼobi ya na ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya ọzọ,
When a man takes a wife, and has gone in to her, and hated her,
14 ọ bụrụ na nwoke a ekwutọọ nwaagbọghọ ahụ, mebie aha ya kwuo na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amatalarị nwoke tupu ha abụọ alụọ,
and laid evil deeds of words against her, and brought out an evil name against her, and said, I have taken this woman, and I draw near to her, and I have not found proofs of virginity in her;
15 nne nwaagbọghọ ahụ, na nna ya, ga-ewere ihe ga-egosi na nwa ha amabeghị nwoke gaa nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama.
then the father of the girl, and her mother, have taken and brought out the girl’s proofs of virginity to [the] elderly of the city in the gate,
16 Nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-agwa ndị okenye, “Enyere m nwoke a nwa m nwanyị dịka nwunye, ma ugbu a, ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya.
and the father of the girl has said to the elderly, I have given my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hates her;
17 Ugbu a, o boola ya ebubo ihere, sị, ‘Achọpụtaghị m ihe ọbụla nʼahụ nwa gị nwanyị a ihe na-egosi na ọ maghị nwoke.’ Ma nke a bụ ihe ngosi na ada anyị amaghị nwoke.” Mgbe ahụ ndị mụrụ ya ga-agbasapụ akwa ahụ nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ.
and behold, he has laid evil deeds of words, saying, I have not found proofs of virginity for your daughter—and these [are] the proofs of virginity of my daughter! And they have spread out the garment before [the] elderly of the city.
18 Ndị okenye obodo ahụ ga-akpọrọ nwoke nyekwa ya ahụhụ.
And [the] elderly of that city have taken the man, and discipline him,
19 Ha ga-emekwa ya ka ọ kwụọ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ narị shekel ọlaọcha, nʼihi na o boro nwaagbọghọ Izrel na-amaghị nwoke ebubo ụgha. Nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anọgide bụrụ nwunye nwoke ahụ. Nwoke ahụ agaghị achụpụkwa ya ụbọchị ndụ ya niile.
and fined him one hundred pieces of silver, and given [them] to the father of the girl, because he has brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she is to him for a wife—he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
20 Ma ọ bụrụ na ebubo nwoke ahụ bụ eziokwu, na achọpụtaghị ihe gosiri na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amaghị nwoke.
And if this thing has been truth—proofs of virginity have not been found for the girl—
21 A ga-eduru nwaagbọghọ ahụ pụta nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nna ya, nʼebe ahụ ka ndị ikom obodo ya ga-anọ were nkume tugbuo ya. Nʼihi na o mere ihe ihere jọgburu onwe ya nʼIzrel, site nʼibi ndụ akwụna mgbe ọ ka nọ nʼụlọ nne ya na nna ya. Ị ghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ ahụ site nʼetiti unu.
then they have brought out the girl to the opening of her father’s house, and the men of her city have stoned her with stones and she has died, for she has done folly in Israel, to go whoring [in] her father’s house; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
22 Ọ bụrụ na e jide nwoke ebe ya na nwunye onye ọzọ dina, ma nwoke ahụ dinara ya ma nwanyị ahụ o dinara aghaghị ịnwụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ị ga-ekpochapụ ihe ọjọọ a site nʼIzrel.
When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them have died—the man who is lying with the woman, and the woman; and you have put away evil out of Israel.
23 Ma ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ na nwoke ọzọ edinakọọ nʼime obodo,
When there is a girl, a virgin, betrothed to a man, and a man has found her in a city and lain with her,
24 ya na nwoke ahụ ka a ga-eduru gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo, were nkume tugbuo ha nʼebe ahụ, ka ha nwụọ, nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o tighị mkpu, ma nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o mebiela nwunye nwoke ibe ya na-achọ ịlụ. Unu aghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ site nʼetiti unu.
then you have brought them both out to the gate of that city, and stoned them with stones, and they have died: the girl, because that she has not cried in a city; and the man, because that he has humbled his neighbor’s wife; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
25 Ma ọ bụrụ na nwoke ezute nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ nʼọhịa, were ike mee ka ha abụọ dina, ọ bụ naanị nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ.
And if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in a field, and the man has laid hold on her, and lain with her, then the man who has lain with her has died alone;
26 Aka nwaagbọghọ ahụ dị ọcha, ọ dịghị mmehie o mere nke ikpe ọnwụ ji adịrị ya, nʼihi na ọnọdụ ya dị ka ọnọdụ mmadụ ahụ onye iro ya bịakwasịrị na mberede gbuo ya.
and you do not do anything to the girl—the girl has no deadly sin; for as a man rises against his neighbor and has murdered him, [taking] a life, so [is] this thing;
27 A pụrụ ị sị na nwaagbọghọ ahụ tiri mkpu ma ọ dịghị onye nọ ịnapụta ya.
for he found her in a field, [and when] she has cried—the girl who is betrothed—then she has no savior.
28 Ọ bụrụ na nwoke ọbụla ejiri ike jide nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke, nke nwoke ọbụla na-ekwebeghị nkwa ịlụ, mee ka ha abụọ dinaa,
When a man finds a girl, a virgin who is not betrothed, and has caught her, and lain with her, and they have been found,
29 nwoke ahụ ga-akwụ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ iri shekel ọlaọcha ise. Ọ ga-alụkwa nwaagbọghọ ahụ nʼihi na o mebiela ya. Ọ gakwaghị achụpụ ya ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
then the man who is lying with her has given fifty pieces of silver to the father of the girl, and she is to him for a wife; because that he has humbled her, he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
30 Nwoke ọbụla agaghị alụ nwunye nna ya, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwunye nna ya. Ime ihe dị otu a bụ imerụ ihe ndina nna ya.
A man does not take his father’s wife, nor uncover his father’s skirt.”
