U-Eksodusi 22
1 Uba umuntu eseba inkabi loba imvu, ayihlabe kumbe ayithengise, uzahlawula inkabi ezinhlanu ngenkabi, lezimvu ezine ngemvu.
“Sɛ obi kɔwia nantwie anaa odwan na ɔkum no anaa ɔtɔn no a, ɔde anantwie enum bɛsi nantwie baako ananmu. Na ɔde nnwan ɛnan asi odwan baako biara ananmu.
2 Uba isela lificwa lifohlela, litshaywe lize life, kakulacala legazi kuye.
“Sɛ mohunu ɔkorɔmfoɔ sɛ ɔrebu efie bi awura mu na wɔkum no a, deɛ ɔkumm no no nni fɔ.
3 Uba ilanga seliphumile phezu kwalo, ulecala legazi. Lifanele ukubhadala lokubhadala; uba lingelalutho, limele lithengiswe ngenxa yokweba kwalo.
Na sɛ asɛm no si awia deɛ a, wɔmfa no sɛ ɛyɛ awudie enti onipa a ɔkumm ɔkorɔmfoɔ no di fɔ. “Sɛ mokyere ɔkorɔmfoɔ bi a, momma ɔntua nneɛma a wawia no nyinaa ho ka na sɛ wantumi antua a, montɔn no sɛ akoa mfa no ntua ɛka no.
4 Uba okwebiweyo kuficwa lokuficwa esandleni salo kuphila, loba inkabi loba ubabhemi kumbe imvu, lizabuyisela kuphindwe kabili.
Sɛ mokyere no sɛ ɔrewia nantwie anaa afunumu anaa odwan a ɔnwuiɛ anaa biribi foforɔ bi a, mommɔ no dekodeɛ a ɔwiaeɛ no ho ka mpemanim.
5 Nxa umuntu edlisa insimu kumbe isivini, angenise izifuyo zakhe zidle ensimini yomunye, uzabuyisela ngokuhle kwensimu yakhe langokuhle kwesivini sakhe.
“Sɛ obi boapa gyaa nʼaboa ma ɔkɔ obi afuom kɔdidi hɔ, sɛe afudeɛ a, ɔmfa ɔno ara nʼafudeɛ mu deɛ ɛsɔ ani pa ara no mmɛtua ka.
6 Uba kuqhamuka umlilo, ulumathe emeveni kuze kutshe inqumbi yamabele loba amabele amileyo loba insimu, othungele umlilo uzahlawula lokuhlawula.
“Sɛ obi rehye nʼafuo, na ogya no tra kɔtɔ ɔfoforɔ afuo mu, hye, sɛe nʼafudeɛ a, deɛ ɔsɔɔ ogya no bɛtua afudeɛ a asɛe no nyinaa ho ka.
7 Uba umuntu enika umakhelwane wakhe imali loba impahla ukuze akulondoloze, njalo kwebiwe endlini yalowomuntu, uba isela litholwa lizabuyisela kuphindwe kabili.
“Sɛ obi ma ɔfoforɔ sika anaa ade foforɔ bi sɛ ɔmfa nsie ma no na wɔwia na sɛ wɔkyere ɔkorɔmfoɔ no a, ɔbɛtua no mpemanim.
8 Uba isela lingatholwa, umninindlu uzasondezwa kubahluleli ukuthi kafakanga yini isandla sakhe empahleni kamakhelwane wakhe.
Na sɛ wɔankyere ɔkorɔmfoɔ no a, wɔde onipa a wɔde agyapadeɛ no hyɛɛ ne nsa no bɛba Onyankopɔn anim abɛhwehwɛ sɛ nʼankasa na ɔwiaa ne yɔnko no anaasɛ ɛnyɛ ɔno.
9 Ngalo lonke udaba lwecala, ngenkabi, ngobabhemi, ngemvu, ngesembatho, ngakho konke okulahlekileyo, umuntu atsho ngakho ukuthi ngokwakhe, udaba lwabo bobabili luzakuza kubahluleli; lowo abahluleli abamlahlayo uzabuyisela kuphindwe kabili kumakhelwane wakhe.
Sɛ ɛba sɛ nantwie, afunumu, odwan, ntoma anaa biribi foforɔ bi yera na deɛ nʼadeɛ ayera no de nʼani kari obi sɛ ɔno na wafa dekodeɛ no, na onii no sane sɛ ɛnyɛ ɔno na wafa a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde nnipa baanu no nyinaa ba Onyankopɔn anim ma ɔhwehwɛ mu. Ɔhwehwɛ mu na deɛ ɔbɛdi fɔ no, ɔbɛtua adeɛ a ɛyeraeɛ no ho ka mmɔho mmienu ama ɔbaako no.
10 Uba umuntu enikela kumakhelwane wakhe ubabhemi loba inkabi loba imvu kumbe isifuyo nje ukuthi akulondoloze, besekusifa loba kulimala kumbe kuthunjwe, kungelamuntu obonayo,
“Sɛ obi de afunumu, nantwie, odwan anaa aboa foforɔ bi ma ne yɔnko bi ayɛn na aboa no wu anaa ɔpira anaa ɔdwane na sɛ obi anhunu ammɛka a,
11 isifungo seNkosi sizakuba phakathi kwabo bobabili, ukuthi kelulanga isandla empahleni kamakhelwane wakhe; njalo umniniyo uzasemukela, kayikubuyisela.
ɛsɛ sɛ deɛ ɔgyee aboa no ayɛn no ka ntam wɔ Awurade anim sɛ ɛnyɛ ɔno na wawia aboa no na deɛ ne dea no gye to mu a, ɔnnye biribiara nsi ananmu.
12 Kodwa uba yebiwe lokwebiwa kuye, uzamhlawula umniniyo.
Nanso, sɛ wia na wɔwiaa aboa no anaa dekodeɛ no wɔ ne nkyɛn deɛ a, na ɛsɛ sɛ sohwɛfoɔ a wɔwiaa aboa no anaa dekodeɛ no firii ne nkyɛn no tua ne wura no ka.
13 Uba idatshuliwe lokudatshulwa, kayilethe ibe yibufakazi, kayikubuyisela edatshuliweyo.
Sɛ akekaboa na ɔkumm no a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔde aboa no funu ba bɛkyerɛ. Ɔyɛ no saa a, ɔrentua ho ka biara.
14 Uba-ke umuntu eseboleka ulutho kumakhelwane wakhe, beselulimala loba lusifa umninilo engelalo, uzahlawula lokuhlawula.
“Sɛ obi fɛm aboa bi anaa biribi foforɔ bi firi ne yɔnko nkyɛn na sɛ aboa no wu anaa ɔpira ɛberɛ a ne wura no nni hɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ onipa a ɔfɛm saa aboa no tua ka.
15 Uba umninilo elalo, kayikuhlawula; uba beluqhatshiwe, lulande ukuqhatshwa kwalo.
Na sɛ ne wura no wɔ hɔ deɛ a, ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔfɛmfoɔ no tua ka, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔbuu yei nyinaa fraa ɔfɛm no ho akatua mu.
16 Uba-ke indoda iyenga intombi emsulwa engakhombanga, ilale layo, izayilobola lokuyilobola ibe ngumkayo.
“Sɛ ɔbarima bi kɔdaadaa abaayewa bi a ɔnyɛɛ ne ho adeɛ na ɔne no da a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ ne ho adeɛ na ɔware no.
17 Uba uyise esala lokwala ukumnika yona, uzabhadala imali njengelobolo lezintombi ezimsulwa.
Sɛ abaayewa no agya se ɔmpene awadeɛ no so a, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima no tua ne tiri sika.
18 Lingayekeli umthakathikazi ukuthi aphile.
“Monkum mmaa nkonyaayifoɔ.
19 Wonke olala lenyamazana uzabulawa lokubulawa.
“Ɔbarima biara a ɔbɛfa aboa bi no, wɔnkum no.
20 Ohlabela onkulunkulu ngaphandle kweNkosi kuphela uzatshabalaliswa.
“Obiara a ɔbɛfiri Awurade akyiri abɔ onyame foforɔ bi afɔdeɛ no, wɔnkum no.
21 Njalo ungamcindezeli owezizwe, ungamhluphi, ngoba lalingabezizwe elizweni leGibhithe.
“Monnhyɛ ɔhɔhoɔ aniɛyaadeɛ ɛkwan biara so; na monkae sɛ, na mo nso moyɛ ahɔhoɔ wɔ Misraim asase so.
22 Lingacindezeli lawuphi umfelokazi kumbe intandane.
“Monnsisi akunafoɔ anaa nwisiaa;
23 Uba ubacindezela lokubacindezela, yebo, uba bekhala lokukhala kimi, ngizakuzwa lokuzwa ukukhala kwabo,
na sɛ moyɛ saa na wɔsu frɛ me a, mɛgye wɔn so.
24 ulaka lwami luzavutha, ngilibulale ngenkemba, labomkenu babe ngabafelokazi labantwana benu intandane.
Mede mʼabufuo bɛtia mo na mama atamfoɔ dɔm akum mo na mo yerenom nso adane akunafoɔ ama mo mma nso ayɛ nwisiaa bi.
25 Uba useboleka abantu bami imali abangabayanga abalawe, ungaziphathi njengombolekisi kubo, ungabeki inzalo phezu kwabo.
“Sɛ wobɔ wo yɔnko Hebrini bosea a, nnye ho mfɛntom biara.
26 Uba uthatha lokuthatha isembatho sikamakhelwane wakho sibe yisibambiso, sibuyisele kuye lingakatshoni ilanga;
Sɛ wogye ne ntoma de si awowa a, anadwo no ara, fa nʼadeɛ kɔma no.
27 ngoba siyisigubuzelo sakhe sodwa, siyisembatho sakhe esikhumbeni sakhe; uzalala phakathi kwani? Kuzakuthi-ke lapho ekhala kimi, ngizamuzwa, ngoba ngilomusa.
Ɛfiri sɛ, ebia na ntoma a ɔwɔ de kata ne ho de ka ne ho hye ara ne no; woagye yi, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na watumi ada? Sɛ woamfa ankɔma no na sɛ ɔsu frɛ me a, mɛtie na mahunu no mmɔbɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, meyɛ mmɔborɔhunufoɔ.
28 Lingathuki onkulunkulu, lingaqalekisi induna yabantu bakini.
“Monnkasa ntia Onyankopɔn na monnome aban mu mpanimfoɔ anaa mo atemmufoɔ anaa wɔn a wɔdi mo so.
29 Lingaphuzisi isivuno senu esigcweleyo lomhluzi wenu wezithelo. Uzangipha izibulo emadodaneni akho.
“Momfa mo nnɔbaeɛ mu nkyɛ mu edu mu baako mmrɛ me ntɛm so. “Saa ara nso na montua mo mmakan mmarima nkwagyeɛ ho ka no.
30 Wenze njalo ngenkabi yakho langemvu yakho; kuzakuba lonina insuku eziyisikhombisa; ngosuku lwesificaminwembili unginike khona.
Ma wo nantwie anaa wo dwan abakan no ne ne maame ntena nnanson, na ɛda a ɛtɔ so nwɔtwe no, fa no brɛ me.
31 Lizakuba ngabantu abangcwele kimi; ngakho lingadli inyama edatshulwe egangeni yizilo, iphoseleni inja.
“Esiane sɛ moyɛ kronkron ma me enti, monnwe aboa biara a akekaboa akyere no akum no. Monnya ne funu no ma nkraman mmɛwe.
