1 कुनै मानिसले गोरु वा भेडा चोरेर त्यसलाई मार्‍यो वा बेच्यो भने त्यसले एउटा गोरुको सट्टा पाँचवटा गोरु र एउटा भेडाको सट्टा चारवटा भेडा देओस् ।
"If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and kills it, or sells it; he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2 घर फोर्दै गर्दा चोरलाई भेट्टाइयो र त्यसलाई प्रहार गर्दा त्‍यो मर्‍यो भने त्यसलाई हिर्काउने हत्याको दोषी हुनेछैन ।
If the thief is found breaking in, and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no guilt of bloodshed for him.
3 तर त्यसले घर फोर्नुअगि घाम झुल्किसकेको रहेछ भने त्यसलाई मार्ने व्यक्‍तिलाई हत्याको दोष लाग्‍नेछ । चोरले नोक्सानी भरिदिनुपर्छ । त्योसँग केही छैन भने त्यसको चोरीको लागि त्यसलाई बेचिनुपर्छ ।
If the sun has risen on him, there shall be guilt of bloodshed for him; he shall make restitution. If he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 चोरिएको पशु अर्थात् चाहे त्यो गोरु होस् वा गधा होस् वा भेडा होस्, त्योसँगै जिउँदै पाइयो भने त्यसले दुई गुणा फिर्ता दिनुपर्छ ।
If the stolen property is found in his hand alive, whether it is ox, donkey, or sheep, he shall pay double.
5 कुनै मानिसले खेत वा दाखबारीमा आफ्ना गाईवस्तु चराउँदा त्यसले बाँधेन र पशु अर्को मानिसको खेतमा चर्न पुग्यो भने त्यसले आफ्नो सबैभन्दा असल खेत वा दाखबारीबाट नोक्सानी तिर्नुपर्छ ।
"If a man causes a field or vineyard to be eaten, and lets his animal loose, and it grazes in another man's field, he shall make restitution from his own field according to his produce; and if he shall have grazed over the whole field, he shall make restitution from the best of his own field, and from the best of his own vineyard.
6 आगलागी भई काँडामा फैलन पुगी त्यसले अन्‍नको बिटा वा मकैको बिटा वा खेतलाई भस्म पार्‍यो भने आगो लगाउनेले क्षतिपूर्ति तिरिदिनुपर्छ ।

7 कुनै मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई सुरक्षाको खातिर रुपियाँ-पैसा वा सामान राख्‍न दिँदा त्यस मानिसको घरबाट त्यो चोरी भयो र चोर फेला पारियो भने चोरले दुई गुणा तिर्नुपर्छ ।
"If a man delivers to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it is stolen out of the man's house; if the thief is found, he shall pay double.
8 तर चोरलाई फेला पारिएन भने घरको मालिकको छिमेकीको सम्पत्तिमाथि उसकै हात छ या छैन भनी जाँच गर्न त्यो न्यायकर्ताहरूको सामु आउनुपर्छ ।
If the thief isn't found, then the master of the house shall come near to God, to find out if he hasn't put his hand to his neighbor's goods.
9 कुनै पनि विवादको बारेमा अथवा गोरु, गधा, भेडा, लुगाफाटा वा कुनै पनि हराएको वस्तुको विषयमा कसैले “यो मेरो हो” भन्यो भने दुवै पक्षका दाबीलाई न्यायकर्ताहरूको सामु ल्याइनुपर्छ । न्याकर्ताहरूले जसलाई दोषी पाउँछन् त्यसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई दुई गुणा तिरोस् ।
For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for clothing, or for any kind of lost thing, about which one says, 'This is mine,' the cause of both parties shall come before God. He whom God condemns shall pay double to his neighbor.
10 कुनै मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई गधा, गोरु, भेडा वा कुनै पशु राख्‍नलाई दिँदा त्यो मर्‍यो वा त्यसलाई चोट लाग्यो वा कसैले नदेखीकन त्यसलाई भगाइयो भने
"If a man delivers to his neighbor a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any animal to keep, and it dies or is injured, or driven away, no man seeing it;
11 आफ्नो छिमेकीको सम्पत्तिमा आफ्नो हात छैन भनी दुवै जनाले परमप्रभुको सामु शपथ खानुपर्छ । सम्पत्तिको मालिकले यसलाई स्वीकार गर्नैपर्छ र अर्कोले क्षतिपूर्ति तिर्नुपर्दैन ।
the oath of God shall be between them both, whether he hasn't put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and its owner shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.
12 तर त्यसबाट यो चोरी भएको हो भने त्यसले यसको लागि मालिकलाई क्षतिपूर्ति तिर्नुपर्छ ।
But if it is stolen from him, he shall make restitution to its owner.
13 पशुलाई टुक्राटुक्रा पारिएको छ भने अर्को मानिसले साक्षीको रूपमा त्यो पशु ल्याओस् । टुक्राटुक्रा पारिएको कारण त्यसले क्षतिपूर्ति दिनुपर्दैन ।
If it is torn in pieces, let him bring it for evidence. He shall not make good that which was torn.
14 कुनै मानिसले आफ्नो छिमेकीबाट पशु पैँचो लिँदा मालिकको उपस्थितिविना त्यसलाई चोट लाग्यो वा त्यो मर्‍यो भने अर्को मानिसले क्षतिपूर्ति दिनैपर्छ ।
"If a man borrows anything of his neighbor's, and it is injured, or dies, its owner not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.
15 तर मालिक पनि उपस्थित थियो भने अर्को मानिसले तिर्नुपर्दैन । पशुलाई भाडामा लिइएको थियो भने ज्यालाको लागि लाग्‍ने रकमले क्षतिपूर्ति तिरिनेछ ।
If its owner is with it, he shall not make it good. If it is a leased thing, it came for its lease.
16 कुनै पुरुषले मगनी नभएकी कन्या केटीलाई फकाएर त्यससित सुत्यो भने त्यसले दुलहीको रकम दिएर त्यसलाई आफ्नी पत्‍नी बनाउनुपर्छ ।
"If a man entices a virgin who isn't pledged to be married, and lies with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.
17 केटीको बुबाले केटी त्यसलाई दिन पूर्ण रूपमा अस्वीकार गर्‍यो भने त्यसले कन्या केटीहरूको दुलहीको सम्पत्ति बराबरको रकम तिर्नुपर्छ ।

"You shall not wrong a foreigner, neither shall you oppress him, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
22 विधवा वा अनाथलाई दुर्व्यवहार नगर्नू ।
"You shall not take advantage of any widow or fatherless child.
23 तिनीहरूलाई सतायौ र तिनीहरूले मेरो पुकारा गरे भने म निश्‍चय नै तिनीहरूको पुकारा सुन्‍नेछु ।
If you take advantage of them at all, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry;
24 मेरो क्रोध दन्कनेछ र म तिमीहरूलाई तरवारले मार्नेछु । तिमीहरूका पत्‍नीहरू विधवा बन्‍नेछन्, र तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीहरू अनाथ बन्‍नेछन् ।
and my wrath will grow hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 मेरा मानिसहरूका बिचमा भएका गरिबहरूलाई तिमीहरूले ऋण दियौ भने तिमीहरू उसको लागि साहुकारजस्ता नहोओ वा त्यसबाट ब्याज असुल नगर ।

If you take your neighbor's garment as collateral, you shall restore it to him before the sun goes down,
27 किनकि त्यसको ओढ्ने त्यही मात्र हो । यो त्यसको शरीरको लागि त्यसको खास्टो हो । योबाहेक त्यो केमा सुत्‍न सक्छ र? त्यसले मेरो पुकारा गर्दा म सुन्‍नेछु किनकि म दयालु छु ।
for that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin. What would he sleep in? It will happen, when he cries to me, that I will hear, for I am gracious.
28 परमेश्‍वरको विरुद्धमा ईश्‍वर-निन्दा नगर न त तिमीहरूका मानिसहरूको शासकलाई सराप ।
"You shall not blaspheme God, nor curse a ruler of your people.
29 तिमीहरूको कटनी वा दाखबारीबाट भेटी चढाउन विलम्ब नगर । तिमीहरूका छोराहरूका जेठोचाहिँ मलाई दिनुपर्छ ।
"You shall not delay to offer from your harvest and from the outflow of your presses. "You shall give the firstborn of your sons to me.
30 त्यस्तै गरी तिमीहरूका गोरु र भेडाहरूलाई पनि यसै गर । सात दिनसिम्म तिनीहरू आ-आफ्ना माउसित बस्‍न सक्छन् तर आठौँ दिनमा चाहिँ तिमीहरूले ती मलाई देओ ।
You shall do likewise with your cattle and with your sheep. Seven days it shall be with its mother, then on the eighth day you shall give it to me.
31 तिमीहरू मेरा लागि अलग गरिएका जाति हौ । त्यसैले खेतमा पशुद्वारा फहराएको मासु तिमीहरूले नखानू । बरु, त्यो कुकुरहरूलाई फालिदिनू ।
"You shall be holy men to me, therefore you shall not eat any flesh that is torn by animals in the field. You shall cast it to the dogs.
