1 Negafu bulimakao afuro, sipisipi afuro, meme afu'mo'ma hazamagreno megi'ma vano nehinama kesunka, kegenka otrenka avrenka negafuna ome amio.

“If you see some Israeli’s ox or sheep that has strayed away, do not act as though you did not see it. Take it back [to its owner].

2 Hagi ana afu'mofo nefa'ma tava'onka'are'ma omanige, ete ana afu'mofo nefama kenka antahinka osu'nesunka ana afura avrenka, keginaka'afi ome ante'negeno iza'o afu venafo'ma eno'ma eme hakesigenka avremio.

But if the owner does not live near you, or if you do not know who the owner is, take the animal to your house. [It can stay with you] until the owner comes, searching for it. Then you must give the animal to him.

3 Hagi tava'onka'are'ma nemanisimofo donki afuro, kukena'o, inankna zama'ama fanane hu'nenama kesunka kegenka otrenka, ana zanke huo.

You must do the same thing if you see a donkey, or a piece of clothing, or anything else that someone has lost. Do not refuse to do what you should do.

4 Hanki tava'onka'are'ma nemanisimofo donki afu'mo'o, bulimakao afu'mo'ma traka huno mase'nena kesunka, kegenka otrenka aza hunka ana afura azeri otio.

“And if you see a fellow Israeli’s donkey or cow that has fallen down on the road, do not act as though you did not see it. Help the owner to lift the animal up [so that it can stand on its feet again].

5 A'nemo'a venenemofo kukena osinkeno, venenemo'a a'nemofo kukena osino. Na'ankure iza'o e'inahu avu'ava'ma hania vahe'mo'a Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo avufina kasrino havizantfa hu'nea avu'ava hugahie.

“Women must not wear men’s clothes, and men must not wear women’s clothes. Yahweh our God hates people who do things like that.

6 Hagi namamo'ma zafarero, mopafino nomagino amu'arero, anenta'are'ma anukino mase'nesigenka, nererane anenta'anena aze'orio.

“If you happen to find a bird’s nest in a tree or on the ground, and the mother bird is sitting in the nest on its eggs or with the baby birds, do not take the mother bird [and kill it].

7 Hagi amne anenta'aramina azerigahazanagi, arerana atrenkeno freno. E'ina'ma hanageno'a Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hurmantena za'zate manitma vugahaze.

You are permitted to take the baby birds, but you must allow the mother bird to fly away. Do this in order that things will go well for you and that you will live for a long time.

8 Hagi kasefa noma kisuta ana nomofo agofetura, vahe'ma mani'afina kegina hugagiho. Hagi keginama hugagi'nesageno mago vahe'mo'ma takaureno'ma fri'niana, ana knazamo'a tamagritera omegahie.

“If you build a new house, you must put a (railing/low wall) around the edge of the roof. If you do that, and if someone falls off the roof [and dies], (you will not be guilty of causing that person to die/his death [MTY] will not be your fault).

9 Wainima kri'nesana kankamumpina ru avimzana ohankro. Hagi ana huta wainima kri'ne'naza kankamumpima ru avimzama hankresuta, ana avimzama hankresaza avimzamofo raga'ane, waini zafa raganena hamareta onegahaze.

“Do not plant any crop in the area where your grapevines are growing. If you do, you are not allowed to harvest the crops that you have planted or to harvest the grapes [to make wine from them].

10 Bulimakao afu'ene donki afu'enena magoke karenamare zafarera reznantenegeke hoza reko'ori'o.

“Do not hitch together an ox and a donkey [for plowing your fields].

11 Hagi sipisipi azokateti'ene, efeke tavravereti eri havia huno tro'ma hu'ne'nia kukena ontaniho.

“Do not wear clothing that is made by weaving together (wool and linen/two different kinds of thread).

12 Zamanunte'ma antazage'no'ma uneramia tavravema tro hanunka, 4'a agentera avasese'a tro hunteho.

“[Twist threads together to] make tassels and sew/fasten them on the four bottom corners of your cloak.

13 Hagi mago ne'mo'ma a'ma erino anteno maseteno'ma ana a'ma avesionteno,

“Suppose a man marries a young woman and has sex with her and later decides that he does not want her any more,

14 havige hugofinteno, ama a'mo'a vene mase'nea a' eri'noe huno'ma hi'na,

and he says false things about her, and claims that she was not a virgin when he married her.

15 ana a'mofo nerera'ene nefa'enena venema omase'nea nanekea ranra vahe'mokizmi zmavuga kuma'mofo kafante vu'ne ome eri'ama hi'o.

If that happens, the young woman’s parents must take the sheet that was on the bed when that man and their daughter were married, which still has bloodstains on it, and show it to the elders of the city at the (gate of/central meeting place in) the city.

16 Ana nehuno ana a'mofo nefa'a amanage hino, nagra mofa'ni'a ama ne'mo erisie hugeno eri'neanagi, menina avesinonteno avesra hunenteno,

Then the father of the young woman must say to the elders, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife. But now he says that he doesn’t want her any more.

17 vene mase'nea mofa ara eri'noe huno nehie. Hianagi agra havige nehianki, ama'na tamage zana me'ne huno nehuno, ranra vahe zamavuga ese zupama ana mofa'ene nevekema masike mase'na'a tvaravea eri rutaregahie.

And he has falsely said that she was not a virgin when he married her. But look! Here is what proves that my daughter was a virgin! Look at the bloodstains on the sheet where they slept the night that they were married!’ And he will show the sheet to the elders.

18 Anama hanigeno'a anante ranra vahe'mo'za ana nera azeri'za sefu amiho.

Then the elders of that city must take that man and whip him.

19 Anama hutenkeno'a ana a'mofo nefana 100'a silva zago amigahie. Na'ankure agra Israeli mofa'mofona havi agi eri ami'ne. Hagi ana ara otregahianki, a' erintegahie.

They shall require that he pay a fine of 100 pieces of silver and give the money to the father of the young woman, because the man caused an Israeli young woman to be disgraced. Also, that woman must continue to live with him; she is his wife. He is not allowed to divorce her during the rest of his life.

20 Hianagi tamagema huno ana mofa'mo'ma venema maseteno'ma emare'nenigeno'a,

“But if what the man said is true, and there is nothing to prove that she was a virgin when he married her,

21 ana ara avre'za nefa nonkahante vu'za ana kumapi venenemo'za have knonu ome ahe friho. Na'ankure Israeli vahepina knare osu hazenke eri fore huno nerera nefa nompima mani'neno venena mase'ne. E'i ana hutma amu'notmifintira kefo avu'ava zana eri atregahaze.

they must take that young woman to the door of her father’s house. Then the men of that city must execute her by throwing stones at her. They must do that because she has done something in Israel that is very disgraceful, by having sex with some man [while she was still living] in her father’s house. By executing her like that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.

22 Hagi ru ne'mofo a'enema mago ne'mo'ma savri avu'ava'ma nehanige'za ke'za erifore hanazana, ana taregamokizni zanahe frisageke frigaha'e. Einahu avu'ava'ma hanuta Israeli vahe amu'nompintira kefo avu'avara eritregahaze.

“If a man is caught while he is having sex with another man’s wife, both of them must be executed. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice in Israel.

23 Hagi vene omase mofa'ma mago ne'mo a' erigahie huno huhampri ante'nesia mofa'ma kuma'mofo agu'afima, ru ne'mo'ma azeri savri'ma huno monko'zama nehanakeno'ma zanageno eri fore'ma hina,

“Suppose in some town a man sees a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married to another man, and he is caught having sex with [EUP] her.

24 anantarega zanavreta kuma'mofo kafante vuta, have knonu ome zanahe friho. Na'ankure mofa'mo'a aze'manerigeno'a krafa osu'ne. Hagi vemo'a ru ne'mofo a'ene monko'zana hu'ne. E'ina'ma hanuta amu'nontmifintira kefo avu'ava zana eri atregahaze.

You must take both of them to the (gate of/central meeting place in) that town. There you must execute them both by throwing stones at them. You must execute the young woman because she did not shout for help even though she was in the town. And the man must be executed because he had sex [EUP] with someone who was already engaged/promised to be married. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.

25 Hianagi vene omase'nesia mofa'ma mago ne'mo a' erigahie huno huhamprinte'nesia mofa'ma, ru ne'mo'ma kuma'mofo fegi'a kazigazi huno azerino monkozama hunte'nenigeno keno eri fore'ma haniana, ana ne'mofonke'za ahe friho.

“But suppose out in the open countryside a man meets a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married, and he rapes her. If that happens, only that man must be executed.

26 Hianagi ana mofara mago'zana huonteho, agra vahe'ma ahefriga hazenkea osu'ne. Na'ankure ama ana hazenkemo'a, mago ne'mo'ma tava'onte'ma nemanimofoma hafra hunteno ahe nefriankna hu'ne.

You must not punish the young woman, because she did not do anything for which she deserves to be executed. This case is like when one man attacks another man [in the countryside] and murders him,

27 Na'ankure ana a'mo'a kumamofo megia agrake vahe omani'afi vano nehigeno, ana ne'mo'a keteno aze'nerigeno krafage hu'neanagi, azahu vahera omani'neno vuno aza osu'ne.

because the man who raped her saw her when she was in the open countryside, and even though she called out for help, there was no one there who could rescue her.

28 Hagi vene omase mofa'ma mago vere'ma huhampri onte'nesia mofama, mago ne'mo'ma azerino monko'zama hunentesigeno keno eri fore'ma haniana,

“If a man rapes a young woman who is not engaged/promised to be married, if someone sees him while he is doing that,

29 ana ne'mo'a ana mofa'mofo nefana 50'a silva zago mizasenenteno, ana mofara a' erintegahie. Na'ankure agra ko anteno maseno azeri haviza hu'ne. Hagi manino vanifina ana ara otrefta hugahie.

that man must pay 50 pieces of silver to the young woman’s father, and he must marry her, because he forced her to have sex with him. He is not allowed to divorce her for the rest of his life.

30 Hagi mago ne'mo'a nefa ara azeri savrira huno nefana agaze eri omino.

“man must not disgrace his father by having sex with any of his father’s wives.”
