1 Bw’olabanga ente ya munno, oba endiga ye, ng’ebula okuva ewaabayo, togirekanga bulesi ne weesuulirayo ogwa nnaggamba naye ogikwatanga n’ogizzaayo ewa nnyiniyo.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his lamb go astray, and withdraw thyself from them: thou shalt surely bring them back again unto thy brother.
2 Nannyini yo bw’abanga tasula kumpi naawe, obanga nannyini yo tomumanyi, ogireetanga mu maka go n’obeeranga nayo okutuusa nannyini yo lw’alijja ng’aginoonya; olwo nno n’olyoka ogimuddiza.
But if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or thou know him not: then shalt thou take it unto thy own house, and it shall remain with thee until thy brother inquire after it, and then shalt thou restore it to him.
3 Okolanga bw’otyo ng’osanze endogoyi ya munno, obanga olonze ekyambalo kya munno, oba ekintu kyonna ekirala munno ky’anaabanga abuliddwa kyokka ggwe n’okironda. Tolemanga kuyamba munno ng’ali mu buzibu, ate nga wandisobodde okumuyamba. Obusobozi bw’onoobanga nabwo okuyamba munno tobumukwekanga.
In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and in like manner shalt thou do with his raiment; and in like manner shalt thou do with every lost thing of thy brother's, which may have been lost to him, and which thou hast found; thou art not at liberty to withdraw thyself.
4 Bw’onoolabanga endogoyi ya munno, oba ente ye, ng’egudde ku kkubo, togiyitangako buyisi, wabula omuyambanga okugiyimusa.
Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fallen down by the way, and withdraw thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.
5 Omukazi taayambalenga ngoye za kisajja, so n’omusajja taayambalenga ngoye za kikazi; kubanga abakola ebyo Mukama Katonda wammwe abakyayira ddala.
A woman shall not have upon her the apparel of a man, and a man shall not put on a woman's garment; for an abomination unto the Lord thy God are all who do this.
6 Temutwalanga Nnyonyi Nzadde. Bwe munaalabanga ekisu ky’ennyonyi ku muti, oba ku mabbali g’ekkubo, nga kirimu amagi oba obwana obuto, nga ne nnyina waabwo abumaamidde, oba atudde ku magi, bwe munaatwalanga obwana obuto, nnyina waabwo temumutwalirangako.
If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way, on any tree, or on the ground, with young ones, or with eggs, and the mother be sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take the mother with the young;
7 Obwana obuto munaayinzanga okubutwala, kyokka nnyina waabwo mumulekanga n’agenda, mulyoke mufunenga emirembe mu mutima awamu n’obuwangaazi.
But thou shalt surely let the mother go, and the young thou mayest take to thyself; in order that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest live many days.
8 Bwe muneezimbiranga enju empya ey’akasolya akatereevu akatali keesulifu, mukolangako akasenge waggulu okwebungulula akasolya ako, kalyoke kaziyizenga omuntu okuva eyo waggulu n’agwa wansi, n’aleeteranga ennyumba eyo omusango olw’omusaayi ogunaabanga guyiise.
When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof; that thou bring not blood upon thy house, if any one were to fall from there.
9 Wakati w’ennyiriri z’emizabbibu temusimbangamu mmere ya ngeri ndala, bwe munaakikolanga, ebibala by’emizabbibu n’eby’emmere gye munaabanga musimbyemu, byombi munaabifiirwanga.
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds; that the ripe fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of the vineyard, be not defiled.
10 Ente n’endogoyi temuzigattanga wamu ne muzisibanga ku kikoligo kye kimu eky’ekyuma kye munaabanga mulimisa.
Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
11 Temwambalanga ngoye ezinaabanga zirukiddwa n’ewuzi z’ebyoya by’endiga nga zigattiddwa wamu n’ewuzi eza linena.
Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, of woolen and linen together.
12 Mutunganga emijunga ku buli nsonda ennya ez’eminagiro gyammwe gye munaayambalanga.
Thou shalt make thyself fringes upon the four corners of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself.
13 Omusajja bw’aneewasizanga omukazi, kyokka oluvannyuma lw’okusula naye, n’amukyawa,
If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
14 n’amuwaayiriza ng’amukonjera ng’agamba nti, “Nawasa omukazi ono, naye bwe nasula naye saamusanga nga mbeerera,”
And he lay an accusation against her, and spread abroad an evil name upon her, and say, This woman I took [for wife], and when I came near to her, I found no tokens of virginity in her:
15 Kitaawe w’omuwala oyo ne nnyina banaaleeteranga abakulembeze abakulu ab’ekibuga ekyo, nga bali ku wankaaki waakyo, obujulizi obunaalaganga ng’omuwala waabwe yali mbeerera.
Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city, to the gate.
16 Kitaawe w’omuwala anaategeezanga abakulembeze abakulu nti, “Nagabira omusajja ono omwana wange omuwala amuwase, naye omusajja amukyaye.
And the father of the damsel shall say unto the elders, My daughter I gave unto this man for wife; but he hath conceived hatred toward her;
17 Kaakano wuuno amuwaayiriza ng’amukonjera ng’amwogerako nti, Muwala wo namusanga nga si mbeerera.” Naye obujulizi buubuno obulaga ng’omwana wange ono omuwala yali mbeerera. Abazadde b’omuwala banaayanjululizanga essuuka y’obuliri mu maaso g’abakulembeze abakulu ab’ekibuga ekyo.
And, lo, he hath laid an accusation [against her], saying, I have found no tokens of virginity in thy daughter; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity; and they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
18 Abakulembeze abakulu b’ekibuga ekyo banaatwalanga bba w’omuwala, banaasookanga okumukubamu.
And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
19 Ate ne bamusalira omutango gwa sekeri za ffeeza kikumi; banaaziwanga kitaawe w’omuwala; kubanga omusajja oyo anaabanga aleese erinnya ebbi ku muwala wa Isirayiri embeerera. Omuwala oyo anaabeeranga mu maka g’omusajja oyo ebbanga lyonna, era omusajja takkirizibwenga kugoba mukazi we oyo ebiro byonna omusajja oyo by’alimala nga mulamu.
And they shall amerce him in a hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel; because he hath spread abroad an evil name upon a virgin of Israel; and she shall remain his wife; he shall not be at liberty to put her away all his days.
20 Naye singa omusajja nga by’anaabanga ayogedde bya mazima, nga n’obujulizi obukakasa ng’omuwala yali mbeerera bunaabanga bubuze,
But if this thing was true, there have not been found tokens of virginity in the damsel:
21 kale nno omuwala oyo anaaleetebwanga ku muzigo gw’ennyumba ya kitaawe, era abasajja ab’omu kibuga ky’omuwala oyo banaamukubiranga awo amayinja n’afa. Kubanga anaabanga akoze ekikolwa kya bugwenyufu nnyo eky’okumanya abasajja ng’akyali mu luggya lwa kitaawe. Ekibi musaananga mukimalemu mu Isirayiri.
Then shall they lead out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die; because she hath wrought a disgraceful deed in Israel, to commit incest in her father's house; and thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
22 Omusajja bw’anaakwatibwanga nga yeebase n’omukyala w’omusajja omulala, kale, omusajja akwatiddwa n’omukyala gw’anaabanga yeebase naye, bombi baakuttibwanga. Ekibi musaana mukimalengamu mu Isirayiri.
If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband: then shall both of them die, the man that lieth with the woman, and the woman; and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.
23 Bwe wanaabangawo omuwala embeerera ayogerezebwa afumbirwe, omusajja n’amusanga mu kibuga ne yeebaka naye,
If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto a man, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her:
24 munaabaleetanga bombi ku wankaaki w’ekibuga ekyo ne mubakuba amayinja ne bafa; omuwala, bwe kibanga nga yali munda mu kibuga naye n’atakuba nduulu kufuna buyambi; omusajja, kubanga yayonoona omuwala ajja okufumbirwa omusajja we. Bwe mutyo bwe munaamalangamu ekibi mu mmwe.
Then shall ye lead them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not [for aid] in the city; and the man, because he hath done violence to his neighbor's wife; and thou shalt put away the evil from the midst of thee.
25 Naye omusajja bw’anaasanganga omuwala ayogerezebwa ku ttale n’amukwata ne yeebaka naye olw’empaka, kale nno omusajja anaabanga yeebase n’omuwala oyo y’anattibwanga.
But if in the field the man should find the betrothed damsel, and the man take hold of her by force, and lie with her: then shall the man that lay with her die alone;
26 Omuwala oyo temumukolangako kintu kyonna, kubanga anaabanga talina kibi kyonna ky’akoze ekinaamusaanyizanga okufa. Ensonga ezo zifaanana ng’ez’omuntu anaabanga alumbaganye muliraanwa we n’amutemula.
But unto the damsel shalt thou not do any thing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death; for as when a man riseth against his neighbor, and striketh him dead. even so is this matter;
27 Olwokubanga omuwala ono anaabanga ayogerezebwa okufumbirwa yasangibwa omusajja ku ttale etali bantu, anaayinzanga okuba nga yeekubira enduulu naye ne watabaawo amudduukirira okumuyamba.
For in the field did he find her; had the betrothed damsel even cried, there would have been none to aid her.
28 Omusajja bw’anasisinkananga omuwala embeerera naye nga taliiko amwogereza, n’amukwata ne yeebaka naye, ne bakwatibwa nga bali mu kikolwa ekyo,
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and lay fast hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found:
29 omusajja anaabanga yeebase n’omuwala oyo anaasasulanga kitaawe w’omuwala sekeri eza ffeeza amakumi ataano. Omusajja anaawasanga omuwala oyo okuba mukazi we, kubanga anaabanga amaze okumusobyako. Era taamugobenga okumala ebbanga lyonna omusajja oyo nga mulamu.
Then shall the man who lieth with her give unto the father of the damsel fifty shekels of silver; and she shall become his wife, because he hath done violence to her, he shall not be at liberty to put her away all his days.
30 Omusajja taawasenga mukyala wa kitaawe aleme kuweebuulanga kitiibwa kya buliri bwa kitaawe.
A man shall not take his lather's wife, and he shall not uncover his father's skirt.
