< Deuteronomy 22 >

1 “Kom fin liye cow ku sheep nutin mwet Israel wiom forfor likin kalkal, nimet kom pilesru. Sruokya ac folokunla nu yurin mwet natu ah.
Thou shalt not pass by if thou seest thy brother’s ox, or his sheep go astray: but thou shalt bring them back to thy brother.
2 Tusruktu mwet se natu fin tuh muta loesla, ku kom fin nikin lah nutin su, na tari kom usla nu inkul sum sifacna. Ke mwet se natu ah tuku suk, na kom sang nu sel.
And if thy brother be not nigh, or thou know him not: thou shalt bring them to thy house, and they shall be with thee until thy brother seek them, and receive them.
3 Oru oapana inge kom fin konauk soko donkey, ku nuknuk se, ku kutena ma saya ma tuhlac ku nikinyukla sin mwet Israel wiom.
Thou shalt do in like manner with his ass, and with his raiment, and with every thing that is thy brother’s, which is lost: if thou find it, neglect it not as pertaining to another.
4 “Fin soko donkey ku soko cow nutin sie mwet Israel wiom ikori inkanek uh, nik kom pilesru. Kasrel ac welul tulokunak.
If thou see thy brother’s ass or his ox to be fallen down in the way, thou shalt not slight it, but shalt lift it up with him.
5 “Mutan uh in tia nukum nuknuk in mukul, ac mukul in tia nukum nuknuk in mutan. Lumah ouinge uh mwe srungayuk yurin LEUM GOD lowos.
A woman shall not be clothed with man’s apparel, neither shall a man use woman’s apparel: for he that doeth these things is abominable before God.
6 “Kom fin konauk ahng lun sie won ulun sak uh ku infohk uh ke kientop sac apis atro ku won fusr natul, kom fah tia usla kientop sac.
If thou find as thou walkest by the way, a bird’s nest in a tree, or on the ground, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take her with her young:
7 Kom ku in us won fusr uh, tusruk kom enenu in filiya kientop sac, tuh moul lom fah loes ac insewowo.
But shalt let her go, keeping the young which thou hast caught: that it may be well with thee, and thou mayst live a long time.
8 “Ke kom musai sie lohm sasu, esam in orala sie kalkal rauneak mangon lohm uh, na mwet fin putatla liki mangon lohm uh ac misa, ac fah wangin koluk lom kac.
When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a battlement to the roof round about: lest blood be shed in thy house, and thou be guilty, if any one slip, and fall down headlong.
9 “Nik kom yukwi sie pac kain in sacn ke ima in grape sunom. Kom fin oru ouinge, ac fah oal nu sum in orekmakin kewana — grape uh ac fahko ke sacn saya.
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest both the seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of the vineyard, be sanctified together.
10 “Nik kom kapreni cow mukul soko ac donkey soko in tukeni amakin plao nutum.
Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
11 “Ke kom orek nuknuk, kom fah tia sisani turet ma orekla ke unen sheep ac turet orekla ke flax in oan ke nuknuk sefanna.
Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of woollen and linen together.
12 “Orala mwe yun ke turet in oan atla ke sruwasrik akosr ke polo nuknuk afinyom.
Thou shalt make strings in the hem at the four corners of thy cloak, wherewith thou shalt be covered.
13 “Fin pa sie mukul el payuk sin sie mutan fusr, na tok mukul sac el srungalla,
If a man marry a wife, and afterwards hate her,
14 na el kinauk kas kikiap lainul, ac fahk mu ke eltal payukyak el konauk tuh na mutan sac el tia virgin se.
And seek occasions to put her away, laying to her charge a very ill name, and say: I took this woman to wife, and going in to her, I found her not a virgin:
15 “Fin sikyak ouiya se inge, papa ac nina kien mutan fusr sac fah us sie mwe akpwaye lah mutan fusr se natultal ah virgin se, ac eltal fah us nu ke acn in nununku, tuh mwet kol lun siti sac in liye.
Her father and mother shall take her, and shall bring with them the tokens of her virginity to the ancients of the city that are in the gate:
16 Papa tumun mutan fusr sac fah fahk nu selos, ‘Nga sang acn nutik in payukyak sin mukul se inge, a inge mukul sac el srungalla.
And the father shall say: I gave my daughter unto this man to wife: and because he hateth her,
17 El kinauk kas kikiap lainul ke el fahk mu mutan se inge tia virgin se ke pacl se eltal marutla. Tusruktu oasr mwe akpwaye lah acn nutik el tuh virgin se. Liye, pa inge mwe akpwaye.’ Na el fah laknelik kaot in marut laltal ye mutalos.
He layeth to her charge a very ill name, so as to say: I found not thy daughter a virgin: and behold these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the ancients of the city:
18 Na mwet kol lun siti sac fah eis mukul tumun mutan sac ac srunglul.
And the ancients of that city shall take that man, and beat him,
19 Elos fah oayapa sap elan moli ipin silver siofok ac sang nu sin papa tumun mutan fusr sac, mweyen mukul sac el tuh akkolukye inen sie mutan virgin lun Israel. Sayen ma inge, mutan sac el ac srakna ma kien mukul sac, ac mukul sac fah tia ku in sisulla ke lusenna moul lal.
Condemning him besides in a hundred sides of silver, which he shall give to the damsel’s father, because he hath defamed by a very ill name a virgin of Israel: and he shall have her to wife, and may not put her away all the days of his life.
20 “Tusruktu, fin pwaye tukak lun mukul sac, ac wangin mwe akpwaye lah mutan sac el tuh virgin se,
But if what he charged her with be true, and virginity be not found in the damsel:
21 na elos fah usla mutan sac nu ke mutunoa in lohm sin papa tumal, na mukul in siti sac fah tanglal nwe ke el misa, mweyen el orala sie mwe mwekin in facl Israel ke el oan yurin mukul meet liki el payuk, ke el srakna muta in lohm sin papa tumal. Ouinge kowos fah sisla ouiya koluk se inge liki Israel.
They shall cast her out of the doors of her father’s house, and the men of the city shall stone her to death, and she shall die: because she hath done a wicked thing in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee.
22 “Mukul se fin koneyukyak ke el oan yurin mutan kien sie pacna mukul, eltal na kewa fah anwuki. Ouinge kowos fah sisla ouiya koluk se inge liki Israel.
If a man lie with another man’s wife, they shall both die, that is to say, the adulterer and the adulteress: and thou shalt take away the evil out of Israel.
23 “Mukul se fin koneyukyak in sie siti ke el oan yurin sie mutan fusr su ako nu sin siena mukul,
If a man have espoused a damsel that is a virgin, and some one find her in the city, and lie with her,
24 kowos fah usaltalla nu likin siti uh ac tanglaltal nwe ke eltal misa. Mutan fusr sac in misa mweyen el tia wowoyak in suk kasru, sruhk el muta in siti uh yen mwet uh ac ku in lohng pusracl. Ac mukul sac elan misa mweyen el oan yurin mutan fusr se su ako nu sin siena mukul. Pa inge ma kowos in oru tuh ouiya koluk inge in tia sifil sikyak inmasrlowos.
Thou shalt bring them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned: the damsel, because she cried not out, being in the city: the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife. And thou shalt take away the evil from the midst of thee.
25 “Sie mukul fin sruinkuiya mutan fusr se su ako nu sin siena mukul ke eltal muta likin siti uh, na mukul sac mukena fah anwuki.
But if a man find a damsel that is betrothed, in the field, and taking hold of her, lie with her, he alone shall die:
26 Wangin ma ac orek nu sin mutan fusr sac, mweyen el tia orala ma koluk ma fal nu ke misa. Ouiya se inge oana ke sie mukul el anwuk nu sin sie pac mukul ac unilya.
The damsel shall suffer nothing, neither is she guilty of death: for as a robber riseth against his brother, and taketh away his life, so also did the damsel suffer:
27 Ke sripen eltal muta likin siti uh, mutan sac el ne wowoyak in kasreyuk el, wangin mwet we in kasrel.
She was alone in the field: she cried, and there was no man to help her.
28 “Mukul se fin koneyukyak ke el sruinkui sie mutan fusr su soenna oasr mwet ako nu sel,
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not espoused, and taking her, lie with her, and the matter come to judgment:
29 na mukul sac fah moli nu sin papa tumun mutan sac ke ipin silver lumngaul, fal nu ke molin payuk se. Na mutan fusr sac fah payukyak sel, mweyen mukul sac el akkohsyel elan oan yorol. Mukul sac fah tia ku in sisella ke lusenna moul lal.
He that lay with her shall give to the father of the maid fifty sides of silver, and shall have her to wife, because he hath humbled her: he may not put her away all the days of his life.
30 “Wangin sie mukul fah akmwekinye papa tumal ke orek kosro yurin kutena sin mutan kien papa tumal.
No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove his covering.
