Eksodosy 22
1 Raha misy olona mangalatra omby, na ondry, na osy, ka mamono azy, na mivarotra azy, dia hanonitra omby dimy ho solon’ ny omby iray izy ary ondry na osy efatra ho solon’ ny ondry na osy iray.
“If a man steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters or sells it, he must repay five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.
2 Raha azo manamitrano ny mpangalatra ka asiana ho faty, dia tsy hisy valin-drà amin’ izany;
If a thief is caught breaking in and is beaten to death, no one shall be guilty of bloodshed.
3 fa raha tratry ny masoandro miposaka kosa izy, dia hisy valin-drà ihany amin’ izany; hanonitra tokoa izy; ary raha tsy manana na inona na inona, dia hamidy izy noho ny halatra nataony.
But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.
4 Raha hita marina velona eo aminy ny halatra na omby, na boriky, na ondry, na osy, dia hanonitra roa heny izy.
If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
5 Raha misy olona mampitondraka amin’ ny voly na tanim-boaloboka, fa alefany handeha ny bibiny, ka homana ny volin’ olona izany biby izany, dia amin’ ny tsara indrindra ao amin’ ny sahany, ary amin’ ny tsara indrindra ao amin’ ny tanim-boalobony, no hanonerany.
If a man grazes his livestock in a field or vineyard and allows them to stray so that they graze in someone else’s field, he must make restitution from the best of his own field or vineyard.
6 Raha misy afo mirehitra ka mahazo ny tsilo, ka may ny antontam-bary, na ny vary maniry, na ny saha, dia hanonitra tokoa izay nampirehitra ny afo.
If a fire breaks out and spreads to thornbushes so that it consumes stacked or standing grain, or the whole field, the one who started the fire must make full restitution.
7 Raha misy olona mampitahiry vola na fanaka ny namany, ka angalarin’ ny sasany ao amin’ ny tranon’ ilay olona izany, raha hita ny mpangalatra, dia hanonitra roa heny izy.
If a man gives his neighbor money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.
8 Fa raha tsy hita kosa ny mpangalatra, dia ho entina eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra ny tompon’ ny trano mba hizahana na naninjitra ny tànany ka naka ny fananan’ ny namany izy, na tsia.
If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must appear before the judges to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property.
9 Ny amin’ ny zavatra ifandirana rehetra, na omby, na boriky, na ondry, na osy, na fitafiana, na zavatra very, izay ataon’ olona ho azy, dia ho entina eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra ny tenin’ izy roa tonta, koa izay helohih’ Andriamanitra dia hanonitra roa heny ho an’ ny namany.
In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any lost item that someone claims, ‘This is mine,’ both parties shall bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges find guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.
10 Raha misy olona mampitahiry ny namany boriky, na omby, na ondry, na osy, na biby fiompy hafa, ka maty izany, na maratra, na roahina ka tsy misy mahita,
If a man gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to be cared for by his neighbor, but it dies or is injured or stolen while no one is watching,
11 dia fianianana amin’ i Jehovah no hitsarana azy roa tonta, hahafantarana na efa naninjitra ny tànany ka naka ny fananan’ ny namany ilay anankiray, na tsia; ary heken’ ny tompony izany, dia tsy hisy onitra.
an oath before the LORD shall be made between the parties to determine whether or not the man has taken his neighbor’s property. The owner must accept the oath and require no restitution.
12 Fa raha nangalarina tany aminy tokoa izany, dia hanonitra ho an’ ny tompon-javatra izy.
But if the animal was actually stolen from the neighbor, he must make restitution to the owner.
13 Raha voaviraviram-biby izany, dia hitondra azy ho vavolombelona izy; tsy hanonitra izay voaviravira izy.
If the animal was torn to pieces, he shall bring it as evidence; he need not make restitution for the torn carcass.
14 Ary raha misy olona mindran-javatra amin’ ny namany, ka simba na maty izany, nefa tsy mba teo aminy ny tompon-javatra, dia hanonitra tokoa izy.
If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies while its owner is not present, he must make full restitution.
15 Fa raha teo aminy ihany ny tompon-javatra, dia tsy hanonitra izy; ary raha zavatra ahofa kosa, dia vitan’ ny hofany izany.
If the owner was present, no restitution is required. If the animal was rented, the fee covers the loss.
16 Ary raha misy olona mitaona zazavavy, izay tsy voafofo, ka mandry aminy, dia hanome harena azy izy mba ho vadiny.
If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged in marriage and sleeps with her, he must pay the full dowry for her to be his wife.
17 Fa raha mandà tokoa ny rainy ka tsy manome azy ho vadiny, dia handoa vola ralehilahy araka ny harena fanome zazavavy hampakarina.
If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, the man still must pay an amount comparable to the bridal price of a virgin.
18 Aza velomina ny vehivavy manana ody.
You must not allow a sorceress to live.
19 Izay rehetra mandry amin’ ny biby dia hatao maty tokoa.
Whoever lies with an animal must surely be put to death.
20 Izay mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra amin’ ny andriamanitra hafa, afa-tsy amin’ i Jehovah ihany, dia ho voaozona.
If anyone sacrifices to any god other than the LORD alone, he must be set apart for destruction.
21 Ary aza manao izay sarotra amin’ ny vahiny, na mampahory azy; fa ela mba vahiny tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ihany ianareo.
You must not exploit or oppress a foreign resident, for you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
22 Aza mampahory ny mpitondratena sy ny kamboty akory ianareo.
You must not mistreat any widow or orphan.
23 Fa raha mampahory azy na amin’ inona na amin’ inona ianao, ka mitaraina amiko izy, dia hihaino ny fitarainany tokoa Aho,
If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to Me in distress, I will surely hear their cry.
24 ka hirehitra ny fahatezerako, ary hamono anareo amin’ ny sabatra Aho; dia mba ho mpitondratena ny vadinareo, ary ho kamboty kosa ny zanakareo.
My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword; then your wives will become widows and your children will be fatherless.
25 Raha mampisambo-bola ny oloko izay malahelo eo aminao ianao, dia tsy ho toy ny mpampanana vola aminy; fa tsy hampandoa zana-bola azy ianao.
If you lend money to one of My people among you who is poor, you must not act as a creditor to him; you are not to charge him interest.
26 Raha maka ny lamban’ ny namanao ho tsatòka ianao, dia hampodinao aminy izany, raha mbola tsy milentika ny masoandro.
If you take your neighbor’s cloak as collateral, return it to him by sunset,
27 Fa izany ihany no firakofany sady fitafiany amin’ ny hodiny, ka inona no ho entiny mandry? ary raha mitaraina amiko izy, dia hohenoiko, fa mamindra fo Aho.
because his cloak is the only covering he has for his body. What else will he sleep in? And if he cries out to Me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.
28 Aza miteny ratsy an’ Andriamanitra ianao, na manozona ny mpanapaka ny firenenao.
You must not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.
29 Aza atao ela vao manatitra ny santatry ny vokatrao sy ny fisotronao; ny matoa amin’ ny zanakao-lahy dia omeo Ahy.
You must not hold back offerings from your granaries or vats. You are to give Me the firstborn of your sons.
30 Izao no hataonao amin’ ny ombinao sy ny ondry aman’ osinao; hafitoana no hitoerany ao amin’ ny reniny; ary amin’ ny andro fahavalo no hanateranao azy ho Ahy.
You shall do likewise with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay with their mothers for seven days, but on the eighth day you are to give them to Me.
31 Ary ho olona masìna ho Ahy ianareo, koa izay hena voaviraviram-biby any an-tsaha dia tsy hohaninareo; fa harianareo ho an’ ny amboa izany.
You are to be My holy people. You must not eat the meat of a mauled animal found in the field; you are to throw it to the dogs.
