< Ekisodho 22 >
1 “Kana munhu akaba nzombe kana gwai uye akauraya kana kutengesa anofanira kuripa mombe shanu nokuda kwenzombe uye makwai mana pagwai rimwe chete.
If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
2 “Kana mbavha ikabatwa ichipaza uye ikarohwa ikafa, nyakudzivirira haana mhosva yokuteura ropa;
If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
3 asi kana zvikaitika shure kwokubuda kwezuva, anenge ane mhosva yokuteura ropa. “Mbavha inofanira kudzora zvayaba, asi kana isina chinhu, inofanira kutongeswa kuti iripe umbavha hwayo.
If the sun shall have risen upon him, there shall be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
4 “Kana chipfuwo chakabiwa chikawanikwa chichiri chipenyu muruoko rwake, ingava nzombe kana mbongoro kana gwai, iye anofanira kuripa zvava zviviri.
If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or donkey, or sheep; he shall restore double.
5 “Kana munhu akafudza zvipfuwo zvake mumunda kana mumunda womuzambiringa uye akarega zvipfuwo zvake zvichidya mumunda womunhu, anofanira kudzorera zvakaisvonaka zvinobva mumunda wake kana mumunda wake womuzambiringa.
If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
6 “Kana moto ukapfuta uye ukapararira muzvikwenzi zveminzwa zvokuti unopisa mirwi yezviyo kana zviyo zvimire, kana munda wose, munhu abatidza moto anofanira kudzorera nomuripo.
If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of grain, or the standing grain, or the field, shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 “Kana munhu akapa muvakidzani wake sirivha kana zvinhu kuti achengete zvichibva zvabiwa kubva mumba momuvakidzani, mbavha yacho, kana ikabatwa, inofanira kuripa zvakapetwa kaviri.
If a man shall deliver to his neighbour money or goods to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.
8 Asi kana mbavha isina kuwanikwa, muridzi wemba anofanira kumira pamberi pavatongi kuti zvionekwe kana akaisa ruoko rwake pazvinhu zvomumwe munhu.
If the thief shall not be found, then the master of the house shall be brought to the judges, to see whether he hath put his hand to his neighbour’s goods.
9 Panyaya dzose dzokuchengeta zvisiri pamutemo, nzombe, mbongoro, gwai, nguo kana chimwewo zvacho chakarasika chinonzi nomumwe munhu, ‘Ndechangu ichi’, vaviri ava vanofanira kuuya nenyaya dzavo pamberi pavatongi. Munhu uyo achanzi ane mhosva navatongi anofanira kuripira muvakidzani wake zvakapetwa kaviri.
For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; and he whom the judges shall condemn, shall pay double to his neighbour.
10 “Kana munhu akapa mbongoro, nzombe, gwai kana chipfuwo chipi zvacho kumuvakidzani wake kuti achengete chichibva chafa kana kukuvara kana kutorwa pasina anozviona,
If a man shall deliver to his neighbour a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it shall die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
11 nyaya iri pakati pavo inofanira kugadziriswa nokuita mhiko pamberi paJehovha yokuti muvakidzani haana kuisa maoko ake pazvinhu zvomumwe munhu. Muridzi anofanira kugamuchira izvi, uye hapana muripo unodikanwa apa.
Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbour’s goods; and the owner of it shall accept of it, and he shall not make restitution.
12 Asi kana chipfuwo chakabiwa kubva kumuvakidzani, iye anofanira kudzorera kumuridzi nomuripo.
And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
13 Kana chakabvarurwa-bvarurwa nechikara chesango, iye achauyisa zvakasara zvacho zvive umboo uye haazosungirwi kuripa chipfuwo chakabvamburwa.
If it shall be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
14 “Kana munhu akakwereta chipfuwo kubva kumuvakidzani wake uye chikakuvara kana kufa, muridzi wacho asipo, anofanira kuripa.
And if a man shall borrow any thing from his neighbour, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
15 Asi kana muridzi ane chipfuwo chacho, akwereta haafaniri kuzoripa. Kana chipfuwo ichi changa chichiripirwa mari yokuchishandisa, mari yakaripwa yacho ndiyo inozozadzisa kurasikirwa kwake.
But if the owner of it shall be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
16 “Kana murume akanyengera musikana anenge ari mhandara asina kutsidzira kuti awanikwe uye akavata naye, iye anofanira kubvisa roora, uye achava mukadzi wake.
And if a man shall entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
17 Kana baba vake vasingadi zvachose kuti vamupe kwaari, anofanira bedzi kubvisa roora rinobvisirwa mhandara.
If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
18 “Usatendera muroyikadzi kuti ararame.
Thou shalt not allow a witch to live.
19 “Ani naani anoita chipfuwo mukadzi anofanira kuurayiwa.
Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 “Ani naani anobayira kuna mwari upi zvake kunze kwangu anofanira kuparadzwa.
He that sacrificeth to any god, except to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 “Usabata mutorwa zvakaipa kana kumudzvinyirira, nokuti imi makanga muri vatorwa muIjipiti.
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 “Musaitira zvakaipa chirikadzi nenherera.
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23 Kana mukaita izvozvo uye ivo vakachema kwandiri, zvirokwazvo ndichanzwa kuchema kwavo.
If thou shalt afflict them in any way, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry;
24 Kutsamwa kwangu kuchamuka, uye ndichakuurayai nomunondo; vakadzi venyu vachava chirikadzi uye vana venyu vachava nherera.
And my wrath shall burn, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 “Kana mukakweretesa mari kuno mumwe wavanhu vangu vari pakati penyu vanoshaya, musaita somunhu webasa rokukweretesa; musamuripisa yava nemhindu.
If thou shalt lend money to any of my people that is poor among you, thou shalt not be to him as a money-lender, neither shalt thou charge him interest.
26 Kana ukatora jasi romuvakidzani wako sechitsidzo, uridzorere kwaari zuva rodoka,
If thou shalt at all take thy neighbour’s raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.
27 nokuti jasi rake ndicho chifukidzo bedzi chaanacho chomuviri wake. Achavata akafukeiko? Paanochema kwandiri, ini ndichanzwa, nokuti ndine tsitsi.
For that is his only covering, it is his raiment for his skin: what shall he sleep in? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
28 “Usamhura Mwari kana kutuka mutongi wavanhu vako.
Thou shalt not revile the judges, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29 “Usarega kupa zvipiriso zvinobva mumatura ako kana muzvisviniro zvako. “Unofanira kundipa dangwe ravanakomana vako.
Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give to me.
30 Muite zvimwe chetezvo kumombe dzenyu nokumakwai enyu. Murege zvigare mazuva manomwe navanamai vazvo, asi muzvipe kwandiri pazuva rorusere.
Likewise shalt thou do with thy oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it to me.
31 “Munofanira kuva vanhu vangu vatsvene. Saka musadya nyama yechipfuwo chakabvamburwa nezvikara zvesango, muikandire kumbwa.
And ye shall be holy men to me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
