< Exodo 23 >

1 Masapul a saankayo nga agipadamag iti palso maipanggep iti siasinoman. Saankayo a makikaddua iti nadangkes a tao tapno agbalinkayo nga ulbod a saksi.
“You must not spread stories that are lies. You must not help bad people by giving evidence that's malicious.
2 Masapul a saankayo a sumurot iti kaadduan nga agaramid iti dakes wenno agsaksi kabayatan nga ay-ayunanyo ti kaaduan tapno mangballikug iti hustisia.
Don't follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give evidence in a lawsuit, don't corrupt justice by siding with the majority.
3 Masapul a saanyo nga ayunan ti nakurapay a tao iti kasona.
Don't show favoritism to poor people in their legal cases either.
4 No masabatyo ti baka wenno asno ti kabusoryo a maiyaw-aw-awan, masapul nga isubliyo daytoy kenkuana.
If you come across your enemy's ox or donkey that has wandered off, take it back it to him.
5 No makitayo a nakusbo iti daga ti asno ti tao a gumurgura kadakayo iti kinadagsen ti awitna, masapul a saanyo a panawan dayta a tao. Masapul a tulunganyo isuna ken ti asnona.
If you see the donkey of someone who hates you that has fallen under its load, don't just leave it there. You must stop and help.
6 Masapul a saanyo a ballikugen ti hustisia no daytoy ket umayon kadagiti napanglaw a tattao iti kaso iti napanglaw a tao.
You must not prevent the poor from getting justice in their lawsuits.
7 Saankayo a makikaddua kadagiti dadduma iti panagaramid iti palso a pammabasol, ken saanyo a patayen dagiti awan basolna wenno nalinteg, ta saankonto a palabsen dagiti nadangkes.
Don't have anything to do with making false accusations. Don't kill the innocent or those who do right, for I won't let the guilty go unpunished.
8 Saankayo a pulos nga umawat iti pasuksok, ta bulseken ti pasuksok dagiti makakita ken ballikugenna dagiti sao dagiti napudno a tattao.
Don't accept bribes, for a bribe blinds those who can see, and undermines the evidence of the honest.
9 Masapul a saankayo a mangidadanes iti ganggannaet, agsipud ta ammoyo ti biag ti maysa a gangannaet, ta ganggannaetkayo met idi iti daga ti Egipto.
Don't abuse foreigners living among you, since you know very well what it's like to be foreigners, for you were once foreigners in Egypt.
10 Iti las-ud iti innem a tawen, agmulakayo ti bukel kadagiti dagayo ken apitenyo dagiti ipaayna a bunga.
Six years you are to sow your land and harvest crops,
11 Ngem iti maikapito a tawen, bay-anyo a saan a naarado ken paginanaenyo daytoy, tapno makapangan dagiti nakurapay a tattao kadakayo. Ti ibatida, kanento dagiti atap nga ayup. Kasta met ti aramidenyo kadagiti kaubusanyo ken kadagiti kaoliboanyo.
but in the seventh year you are to let it rest and leave it uncultivated, so that poor people may eat what grows naturally from the field and the wild animals can finish what's left. Follow the same procedure for your vineyards and olive groves.
12 Agtrabahokayo bayat iti innem nga aldaw, ngem iti maikapito nga aldaw masapul nga aginanakayo. Aramidenyo daytoy tapno makainana dagiti baka ken asnoyo, ken tapno makainana ken mabang-aran dagiti annak a lallaki dagiti tagabuyo a babbai ken ti siasinoman a gangannaet.
You have six days to do your work, but on the seventh day you must stop working, so that your ox and your donkey can rest, and your slaves' families can catch their breath, as well as the foreigners living among you.
13 Endenganyo ti amin nga imbagak kadakayo. Saanyo a dakdakamaten ti nagan dagiti sabali a dios, wenno saanyo nga ipalubos a mangngeg dagiti naganda manipud iti ngiwatyo.
Make sure to pay attention to everything I've told you. Don't think to call on the names of other gods—you must not even mention them.
14 Masapul nga agdaliasatkayo tapno makaangaykayo iti fiesta a maipaay kaniak iti mamintallo a daras iti makatawen.
Three times every year you are to celebrate a feast dedicated to me.
15 Masapul a ngilinenyo ti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga Awan Lebadurana. Kas imbilinko kadakayo, mangankayo iti tinapay nga awan lebadurana iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw. Iti dayta a tiempo, sumangokayonto kaniak iti bulan ti Abib, a naituding para iti daytoy a panggep. Iti daytoy a bulan a rimuarkayo idi manipud idiay Egipto. Ngem masapul a saankayo nga agpakita iti sangoanak nga ima-ima.
You are to observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread as I instructed you. You are to eat bread without yeast for seven days at the appropriate time in the month of Abib, because that was the month you left Egypt. No one can come before me without bringing an offering.
16 Masapul a ngilinenyo ti Fiesta ti Panagapit, ti umuna a bunga dagiti nagbannoganyo idi immulayo dagiti bukbukel kadagiti taltalonyo. Kasta met a masapul a ngilinenyo ti Fiesta ti Panagummong iti ileleppas ti tawen, inton agapitkayo manipud kadagiti taltalonyo.
You are also to observe the Festival of Harvest when you present the firstfruits of the produce from what you've sown in the fields. Lastly you are to observe the Festival of Gathering-In the Harvest at the end of the year, when you gather in the harvest of the rest of your crops from the field.
17 Masapul nga agparang iti sangoanak, a ni Yahweh, dagiti amin a lallaki iti mamintallo a daras iti tunggal tawen.
Every Israelite male is to come before the Lord God at these three times every year.
18 Masapul a saanyo nga idaton ti dara dagiti naidaton para kaniak a kaddua ti tinapay nga adda lebadurana. Dagiti taba manipud kadagiti naidaton iti fiestak ket masapul a saan nga agtalinaed iti agpatnag agingga iti bigat.
You must not offer the blood of my sacrifices together with anything that contains yeast, and the fat from the offerings presented at my festival must not be left until morning.
19 Masapul nga iyegyo iti uneg ti balayko, ti balay ni Yahweh a Diosyo ti umuna a kasayaatan a bunga manipud kadagiti dagayo. Masapul a saanyo a paburekan ti urbon a kalding iti gatas ti inana.
Bring the best firstfruits of your crops to the house of the Lord your God. Don't cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
20 Mangibaonakto iti anghel nga umun-una kadakayo a mangsalaknib kadakayo iti dalan, ken mangiyeg kadakayo iti lugar nga insaganak.
Look, I'm sending an angel ahead of you to protect you on the way and to take you to the place I've prepared for you.
21 Dumngeg ken agtulnogkayo kenkuana. Saanyo a pagpungtoten isuna, ta saannanto a pakawanen dagiti pagkuranganyo. Adda kenkuana ti naganko.
Make sure you pay attention to him and do what he says. Don't oppose him, because he won't forgive rebellion, for he carries my authority.
22 No pudno nga agtulnogkayo iti timekna ken aramidenyo amin dagiti ibagak kadakayo, ket agbalinakto a kabusor kadagiti kabusoryo ken sumuppiat kadagiti sumupsuppiat kadakayo.
However, if you listen to him carefully, and do everything that I tell you, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and I will fight those who fight against you.
23 Umun-unanto kadakayo ti anghelko ket iyegnakayo kadagiti Amorreo, Heteo, Perezeo, Cananeo, Heveo ken kadagiti Jebuseo. Dadaelekto ida.
For my angel will go ahead of you and take you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out.
24 Masapul a saankayo nga agrukbab kadagiti diosda, dayawen dagitoy, wenno tuladen dagiti ar-aramidenda. Ngem ketdi, masapul a naan-anay a dadaelenyo ida ken burakburakenyo dagiti nasagradoan a bato nga adigida.
You must not bow down to their gods or worship them or follow their pagan practices. No, you must demolish their idols and smash their sacred pillars into pieces.
25 Masapul a dayawendak, ni Yahweh a Diosyo. No aramidenyo, bendisionak dagiti tinapay ken danumyo. Ikkatekto dagiti saksakit kadakayo.
You are to worship the Lord your God, and he will bless your food and water. I will make sure none of you fall sick.
26 Awanto ti babai nga agbalin a lupes wenno maalisan iti dagayo. Ikkankayonto iti napaut a panagbiag.
No woman will have a miscarriage or be without children. I will make sure you live long lives.
27 Pagbutngekto kaniak dagiti agnanaed iti daga a papananyo. Papatayekto dagiti amin a tattao a masabatyo. Pagtallikodekto dagiti amin a kabusoryo gapu iti buteng.
I will send terror about me ahead of you which will throw every nation you meet into panic. I will make all your enemies turn and run away.
28 Mangibaonakto kadagiti ayukan iti sangoananyo a mangpapanaw kadagiti Heveo, Cananeo, ken Heteo inton sumungadkayo.
I will send hornets ahead of you to drive out before you the Hivites and Canaanites and Hittites.
29 Saanko ida a papanawen iti sangoananyo iti las-ud iti maysa a tawen, wenno saan, agbalin a nagtalawan ti daga, ket umado iti kasta unay dagiti atap nga ayup.
I will not drive them out in just one year, because the land would become desolate and you would have to deal with increased numbers of wild animals.
30 Ngem ketdi, in-inutekto a papanawen ida iti sangoananyo agingga nga umadukayo ket tagikuaenyo ti daga.
Bit by bit I will drive them out ahead of you, until there are enough of you to take possession of the land.
31 Irugikto ti beddengyo manipud iti baybay dagiti Runo agingga iti baybay dagiti Filisteo, ken manipud iti let-ang agingga iti karayan ti Eufrates. Pagballigienkayo kadagiti agnanaed iti entero a daga. Papanawenyonto ida iti sangoananyo.
I will fix your borders from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the Euphrates River. I will hand the inhabitants of the land over to you, and you will drive them out.
32 Masapul a saankayo a makitulag kadakuada wenno kadagiti diosda.
You must not make any agreement with them or with their gods.
33 Masapul a saanda nga agnaed iti dagayo, ta no saan pagaramidendakayo iti basol a maibusor kaniak. No agdayawkayo kadagiti diosda, sigurado nga agbalinto daytoy a palab-og kadakayo.””
They must not be allowed to stay in your land, otherwise they will lead you to sin against me. For if you worship their gods, they will definitely become a trap for you.”
