Deuteronomio 17
1 Masapul a saankayo a mangipaay iti sakripisio kenni Yahweh a Diosyo iti maysa a baka wenno maysa a karnero nga adda pakapilawanna wenno banag a saan a nasayaat, ta makarimon daytoy kenni Yahweh a Diosyo.
Don't sacrifice to the Lord your God cattle or a sheep that has a defect or has something seriously wrong, for that is offensive to the Lord your God.
2 No adda masarakan kadakayo, iti aniaman kadagiti ruangan ti siudadyo nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo, siasinoman a lalaki wenno babai a mangaramid iti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh a Diosyo ken mangsalungasing iti tulagna—
There may be a report that one of you, whether a man or a woman, living in a town that the Lord your God gave you, has been found to be sinning in the sight of the Lord your God by breaking the Lord's agreement.
3 siasiano man a pimmanaw ken nagrukbab kadagiti sabali a dios ken nagruknoy kadagitoy, iti init man, ti bulan, wenno uray aniaman a makitkita nga adda idiay langit— a saanko nga imbilin,
This person has done this by going to worship other gods, bowing down to them—or to the sun, moon, or any of the stars of heaven—which I have ordered you not to do.
4 ket no naibaga kadakayo daytoy wenno no nangngeganyo daytoy—ket masapul a mangaramidka iti naannad a panangsukimat. No pudno daytoy ken sigurado a ti kasta a banag a makarimon ket naaramid idiay Israel.
If you hear such a report, you need to make a full investigation. If you find out that the report is true, and that such an awful sin has been committed in Israel,
5 —kalpasanna masapul nga iyegyo dayta a lalaki wenno dayta a babai, a nangaramid iti kastoy a dakes a banag iti ruangan ti siudadyo, dayta a lalaki ken babai, ket masapul a batoenyo dayta a tao inggana a matay.
you must have the man or woman who has committed this terrible act taken outside the town and stoned to death.
6 Iti ngiwat ti dua wenno tallo a saksi, masapul a mapapatay isuna, ngem iti ngiwat iti maysa laeng a saksi masapul a saan isuna a mapapatay.
That person is to be executed based on the evidence given by two or three witnesses. No one shall be executed on the evidence given by a single witness.
7 Masapul nga ti ima dagiti saksi ti umuna a mangpapatay kenkuana, ket kalpasanna dagiti im-ima dagiti amin a tattao; ket ikkatenyo ti dakes manipud kadakayo.
The witnesses must act first in executing the person, and then the rest of those who are present. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
8 No rumsua ti banag a narigat unay nga ukomenyo—mabalin a maysa a saludsod iti pammapatay wenno saan a naigagara a pannakatay, iti kalintegan ti maysa a tao ken kalintegan ti sabali a tao, wenno maysa a saludsod a kita ti naaramid a panangdangran, wenno sabali a kita a banag— banbanag a saan a pagkikinnaawatan iti uneg kadagiti ruangan ti siudadyo, masapul ngarud a mapankayo iti lugar a piliento ni Yahweh a Diosyo a kas santuariona.
If there's a case before your town court that is too problematic for you to settle, whether the argument is over murder or manslaughter, one legal decision against another, or different degrees of assault, you must take the issue to the place the Lord your God will choose.
9 Masapul a mapankayo kadagiti papadi, dagiti kaputotan ni levi, ken iti ukom nga agserserbi iti dayta a tiempo; sapulenyonto dagiti pammagbagada ket iteddanto kadakayo ti pangngeddeng.
Go to the priests, the Levites, and to the judge in charge. Present the case to them, and they will give you their decision.
10 Masapul a surutenyo ti linteg a naited kadakayo, iti disso a piliento ni Yahweh a kas santuariona. Aramidenyonto a naannad dagiti amin a banbanag nga insuroda nga aramidenyo.
You must abide by the decision they give you there at the place the Lord will choose. Make sure you do everything they tell you to do,
11 Surotenyo ti linteg nga isuroda kadakayo, ken aramidenyo a maiyannurot kadagiti pangngeddeng nga itedda kadakayo. Saankayo a sumisiasi kadagiti ibagada kadakayo, iti makannawan wenno iti makattigid.
in accordance with the legal instructions they give you and the verdict they delivered. Don't deviate from the decision they give you.
12 Siasinoman nga agtignay a sitatangsit, a saan a panangdengdengeg iti padi a nakatakder nga agserbi iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Diosyo, wenno iti saanna a panangdengdengngeg iti ukom—matayto dayta tao; ikkatenyonto ti dakes manipud iti Israel.
Anyone who treats with contempt either the priest (who ministers before the Lord your God) or the judge, must be executed. You must eliminate this evil from Israel.
13 Masapul a dumngeg ken agbuteng dagiti amin a tattao, ket saandanton nga agtignay a sitatangsit.
Then everyone else will hear about it and be afraid, and won't act with contempt in the future.
14 Inton makadanonkayo iti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo, ken inton matagikuayo daytoy, ket mangrugikayon nga agnaed iti daytoy, ket kunaenyonto, 'Mangisaadakto iti ari a mangituray kaniak, a kas kadagiti amin nasion nga adda iti aglawlawko,'
After you've entered the land that the Lord your God is giving you, and have taken it over and settled in it, and you decide, “Let's have a king to rule over us like all the other nations around us do,”
15 masapul ngarud a siguradoenyo a mangisaadkayo iti ari a mangituray kadakayo, a piliento ni Yahweh a Diosyo. Masapul a mangisaadkayo iti maysa nga ari a mangituray kadakayo manipud kadagiti kakabsatyo. Saankayo a mangisaad iti maysa a gangannaet, a saanyo a kabsat, a mangituray kadakayo.
you can have a king but only one chosen by the Lord your God. He must be an Israelite. You must not have a king who is a foreigner; someone who is not an Israelite.
16 Ngem masapul a saan isuna nga agpaadu kadagiti kabalio a maipaay iti bagina, wenno pasublienna dagiti tattao idiay Egipto tapno mapaaduna dagiti kabalio, ta insao ni Yahweh kadakayo, 'Masapul a saankayo nga agsubli manen iti dayta a dalan.'
Your king must not have large numbers of horses, or send his men to Egypt to buy more horses, because the Lord has declared, “You must never to return there again.”
17 Ken masapul a saan isuna nga agpaadu iti asawa a maipaay iti bagina, tapno saan nga umadayo ti pusona manipud kenni Yahweh; wenno masapul a saan isuna nga agpaadu kadagiti pirak ken balitok a maipaay iti bagina.
He must not have many wives, so they don't lead him away from following the Lord. He must not have large quantities of silver and gold.
18 Inton agtugaw isuna iti trono ti pagarianna, masapul nga isuratna ti kopya daytoy a linteg iti maysa a nalukot a pagbasaan a maipaay iti bagina, manipud iti linteg nga adda iti sangoanan dagiti papadi, a Levita.
Once he is king and sits on his royal throne, he must make a copy for himself of these instructions, writing them on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.
19 Masapul nga adda kenkuana ti nalukot a pagbasaan, ken masapul a basaenna daytoy iti amin nga aldaw iti panagbiagna, tapno masursurona ti agdayaw kenni Yahweh a Diosna, tapno masalimetmetanna dagiti amin a sasao iti daytoy a linteg ken dagitoy nga alagaden, tapno tungpalenna dagitoy.
He is to keep it with him, and he is to read from it each day throughout his life, so he may learn to respect the Lord his God by being careful to follow every word of these instructions and regulations.
20 Masapul nga aramidenna daytoy tapno saan nga agpalangguad kadagiti kakabsatna, ken tapno saan isuna a sumisiasi kadagiti bilbilin, iti makannawan wenno iti makattigid; tapno mapaatiddugma koma dagiti al-aldawna iti pagarianna, isuna ken dagiti annakna, kadagiti Israel.
Then he won't think more of himself than his fellow Israelites, and he won't deviate from the commandments, so that he and his sons may have long reigns over the kingdom of Israel.
