Deotoronomia 22

1 Raha hitanao mania ny omby na ny ondrin’ ny rahalahinao, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany, fa avereno any amin’ ny rahalahinao mihitsy izany.

“You do not see the ox of your brother or his sheep driven away, and have hidden yourself from them, you certainly turn them back to your brother;

2 Ary raha tsy akaiky anao, na tsy fantatrao, ny rahalahinao, dia ento mody any aminao ilay nania, ary aoka hitoetra aminao mandra-pitadin’ ny rahalahinao azy, dia haverinao any aminy.

and if your brother [is] not near to you, and you have not known him, then you have removed it to the midst of your house, and it has been with you until your brother seeks it, and you have given it back to him;

3 Ary toy izany koa no hataonao amin’ ny borikiny, na ny fitafiany, na ny zavatry ny rahalahinao, na inona na inona izay very ka hitanao; fa aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany.

and so you do to his donkey, and so you do to his garment, and so you do to any lost thing of your brother’s, which is lost by him, and you have found it; you are not able to hide yourself.

4 Ary raha hitanao ny borikin’ ny rahalahinao, na ny ombiny, potraka any an-dalana, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany; fa manampia ny rahalahinao hanarina azy.

You do not see the donkey of your brother, or his ox, falling in the way, and have hid yourself from them; you certainly raise [them] up for him.

5 Aoka ny vehivavy tsy hitafy ny fitafian-dehilahy; ary aoka ny lehilahy tsy hitafy ny fitafiam-behivavy; fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany.

Anything of a man is not on a woman, nor does a man put on the garment of a woman, for anyone doing these [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.

6 Raha sendra mahita akanim-borona eo anoloanao eny an-dalana ianao, na amin’ ny efa foy, na mbola atodiny, ary ny reniny manomba ny efa foy, na mikotrika ny atodiny, dia aza maka ny reniny mbamin’ ny zanany.

When a bird’s nest comes before you in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, [with] brood or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the brood or on the eggs, you do not take the mother with the young ones;

7 Alefaso mihitsy ny reniny, fa ny zanany ihany no alao ho anao, mba hahita soa ianao ka ho maro andro.

you certainly send the mother away, and take the young ones for yourself, so that it is well with you and you have prolonged days.

8 Raha manao trano vaovao ianao, dia asio aro-fanina ny tampony, fandrao hisy olona hianjera eny, ka hahatonga heloka ny amin’ ny rà ho ao an-tranonao ianao.

When you build a new house, then you have made a parapet for your roof, and you do not put blood on your house when one falls from it.

9 Aza fafazana voan-javatra roa karazana mifangaroharo ny taninao, fandrao samy ho lasa ho sazy ny vokatry ny voan-javatra nafafinao sy ny vokatry ny tanim-boalobokao.

You do not sow your vineyard [with] two kinds [of seed], lest the fullness of the seed which you sow and the increase of the vineyard be separated.

10 Aza mampikambana omby sy boriky hiasa tany.

You do not plow with an ox and with a donkey together.

11 Aza mitafy lamba volon’ ondry sy rongony mifamahofaho.

You do not put on mixed material, wool and linens together.

12 Asio somotraviaviny ny zorony efatra amin’ ny lambanao izay itafianao.

You make fringes for yourself on the four skirts of your covering with which you cover [yourself].

13 Raha misy lehilahy mampaka-bady ary mandry aminy, ka tsy tiany indray ravehivavy,

When a man takes a wife, and has gone in to her, and hated her,

14 dia haratsiny sy alàny baraka ka ataony hoe: Efa nampakatra ity vehivavy ity aho, nefa raha nandry taminy, dia tsy hitako ny famantarana azy ho virijina:

and laid evil deeds of words against her, and brought out an evil name against her, and said, I have taken this woman, and I draw near to her, and I have not found proofs of virginity in her;

15 dia halain’ ny ray aman-drenin-drazazavavy ny famantarana azy ho virijina ka ho entiny ho eo amin’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna eo am-bavahady.

then the father of the girl, and her mother, have taken and brought out the girl’s proofs of virginity to [the] elderly of the city in the gate,

16 Dia hiteny amin’ ny loholona ny rain-drazazavavy hoe: Ny zanako-vavy nomeko ho vadin’ io lehilahy io, kanefa tsy tiany indray izy;

and the father of the girl has said to the elderly, I have given my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hates her;

17 ary indro fa efa noharatsiny izy ka nataony hoe: Tsy hitako ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina; kanefa indreto ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina. Dia hamelatra ny lamba eo anatrehan’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izy mivady.

and behold, he has laid evil deeds of words, saying, I have not found proofs of virginity for your daughter—and these [are] the proofs of virginity of my daughter! And they have spread out the garment before [the] elderly of the city.

18 Ary halain’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izany lehilahy izany ka hofaizany.

And [the] elderly of that city have taken the man, and discipline him,

19 Dia hosaziny sekely volafotsy zato koa izy, ka homeny ny rain-drazazavavy izany, satria nahafa-baraka ny virijina anankiray tamin’ ny Isiraely ralehilahy; nefa dia ho vadiny ihany razazavavy ka tsy azony hisaorana amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.

and fined him one hundred pieces of silver, and given [them] to the father of the girl, because he has brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she is to him for a wife—he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.

20 Fa raha marina kosa izany lazainy izany, ka tsy hita ny famantarana an-drazazavavy ho virijina,

And if this thing has been truth—proofs of virginity have not been found for the girl—

21 dia ho entiny mivoaka ho eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny tranon-drainy razazavavy ka hotorahan’ ny mponina amin’ ny tanànany vato ho faty, satria nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin’ ny Isiraely izy ka nijangajanga tao an-tranon-drainy; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.

then they have brought out the girl to the opening of her father’s house, and the men of her city have stoned her with stones and she has died, for she has done folly in Israel, to go whoring [in] her father’s house; and you have put away evil out of your midst.

22 Raha misy lehilahy azo mandry amim-behivavy vadin’ olona, dia samy hatao maty izy roroa, na ralehilahy izay nandry tamin-dravehivavy, na ravehivavy koa; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo amin’ ny Isiraely ny fanao ratsy.

When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them have died—the man who is lying with the woman, and the woman; and you have put away evil out of Israel.

23 Raha misy zazavavy virijina voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misy lehilahy mahita azy eo an-tanàna ka mandry aminy,

When there is a girl, a virgin, betrothed to a man, and a man has found her in a city and lain with her,

24 dia ho entinareo mivoaka ho eo amin’ ny vavahadin’ izany tanàna izany izy roroa ka hotorahanareo vato ho faty: razazavavy moa, satria tsy niantso, nefa tao an-tanàna ihany; ary ralehilahy koa, satria nandry tamin’ ny vadin’ ny namany; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.

then you have brought them both out to the gate of that city, and stoned them with stones, and they have died: the girl, because that she has not cried in a city; and the man, because that he has humbled his neighbor’s wife; and you have put away evil out of your midst.

25 Fa raha any an-tsaha kosa no ahitan-dralehilahy an-drazazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misavika azy ralehilahy ka mandry aminy, dia ralehilahy izay nandry taminy ihany no hatao maty.

And if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in a field, and the man has laid hold on her, and lain with her, then the man who has lain with her has died alone;

26 Fa ravehivavy dia tsy hasianao na inona na inona; fa tsy misy ota tokony hahafaty azy; fa tahaka ny olona mitsangana hamely ny namany ka mahafaty azy no hevitr’ izany zavatra izany.

and you do not do anything to the girl—the girl has no deadly sin; for as a man rises against his neighbor and has murdered him, [taking] a life, so [is] this thing;

27 Fa tany an-tsaha no nahitany azy; ary niantso ihany razazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, nefa tsy nisy hamonjy azy.

for he found her in a field, [and when] she has cried—the girl who is betrothed—then she has no savior.

28 Raha misy lehilahy mahita zazavavy virijina, izay tsy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ka misavika azy sady mandry aminy, koa hita izy roroa,

When a man finds a girl, a virgin who is not betrothed, and has caught her, and lain with her, and they have been found,

29 dia hanome sekely volafotsy dimam-polo ho an’ ny rain-drazazavavy ralehilahy izay nandry taminy; ary hovadiny izy, satria efa nosavihiny sady nandriany; ary tsy azony hisaorana izy amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.

then the man who is lying with her has given fifty pieces of silver to the father of the girl, and she is to him for a wife; because that he has humbled her, he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.

30 Tsy mahazo maka ny vadin-drainy ny olona, na maniry amin’ izay nandrian-drainy.

A man does not take his father’s wife, nor uncover his father’s skirt.”
