Sharciga Kunoqoshadiisa 21

1 Oo dalka Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idiin siinayo inaad hantidaan haddii laga dhex helo mid la dilay oo berrinka dhex yaal, oo la aqoon waayo kii isaga dilay,

“When there will have been found in the land, which the Lord your God will give to you, the corpse of a man who has been killed, and it is not known who is guilty of the murder,

2 markaas waa inay wadaaddadiinna iyo xaakinnadiinnu soo baxaan, oo waa inay qiyaasaan ilaa magaalooyinka kan la dilay hareerahiisa ku wareegsan,

your judges and those greater by birth shall go out and measure, from the place of the corpse, the distance to each of the surrounding cities.

3 oo magaaladii ugu dhow ninka la dilay waa in odayaasha magaaladaasu ay lo'da ka soo wataan qaalin aan lagu shaqaysan oo aan harqood wax ku jiidin,

And in whichever one they perceive to be closer than the others, the elders shall take a calf from the herd, one which has not pulled with a yoke, nor tilled with a plow.

4 oo odayaasha magaaladaasu waa inay qaalinta u wadaan dooxo biyaheedu ordayaan oo aan la jeexin, waxna lagu beerin, oo halkaas dooxada dhexdeeda ah qaalinta qoorta ha kaga jebiyeen.

And they shall lead it into a rough and stony valley, one which has never been tilled or sown. And in that place, they shall cut the neck of the calf.

5 Oo markaas wadaaddada ah ilma Laawi waa inay soo dhowaadaan, waayo, Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu iyaguu u doortay inay isaga u adeegaan iyo inay ku duceeyaan magaca Rabbiga, oo muran kasta iyo dhaawac kastaba siday iyagu yidhaahdaan ha laga yeelo.

And the priests the sons of Levi shall approach, those whom the Lord your God has chosen to minister to him, and to bless in his name, and to decide every controversy by their word, and to judge which things are clean and which are unclean.

6 Oo magaalada ninka la dilay magaalo ahaan ugu dhow odayaasheeda oo dhammu waa inay ku kor faraxashaan qaalintii qoorta lagaga jebiyey dooxada dhexdeeda,

And those greater by birth of that city, nearest to the one who was slain, shall go and shall wash their hands over the calf that was killed in the valley.

7 oo iyagu markaas ha jawaabeen oo ha yidhaahdeen, Dhiiggan gacmahayagu ma daadin, indhahayaguna ma arag.

And they shall say: ‘Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it.

8 Haddaba Rabbiyow, cafi dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil oo aad soo furatay, oo hana u oggolaan in dhiig aan xaq qabinu uu saarnaado dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil. Oo markaas iyaga waa loo kafaaro gudi doonaa dhiiggaas.

Be merciful to your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, O Lord, and do not charge them with innocent blood in the midst of your people Israel.’ And so the guilt of the blood will be taken away from them.

9 Oo sidaas waa inaad dhexdiinna uga saartaan dhiigga aan xaqa qabin markaad samaysaan waxa ku qumman Rabbiga hortiisa.

Then you will be free from the blood that was shed against the innocent, when you will have done as the Lord has instructed you.

10 Oo markaad dagaal ugu baxdaan cadaawayaashiinna, oo uu Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu iyaga gacmihiinna soo geliyo, oo aad maxaabiis ahaan iyaga u kaxaysataan,

If you have gone out to fight against your enemies, and the Lord your God has delivered them into your hand, and if, as you are leading away the captives,

11 oo haddii midkiin maxaabiista dhexdooda ku arko qof dumar ah oo qurux badan, oo uu iyada jeclaado oo uu doonayo inuu naagaysto,

you see among the number of the captives a beautiful woman, and you love her, and you are willing to have her as a wife:

12 markaas waa inuu gurigiisii geeystaa, oo iyadu waa inay timaha iska xiirtaa oo ciddiyahana iska jartaa,

then you shall lead her into your house. And she shall shave off her hair, and cut her nails short,

13 oo dharkii maxaabiista waa inay iska furtaa, oo gurigiisa ha joogto, oo bil dhan ha u baroorato aabbaheed iyo hooyadeed, oo taas dabadeed waa inuu u tagaa oo ninkeedii ahaadaa, oo iyana naagtiisii ha ahaato.

and remove the garment in which she was captured. And she shall sit in your house and weep for her father and mother, for one month. And after that, you shall enter to her and sleep with her, and she shall be your wife.

14 Oo markaas hadduusan iyada u bogin, waa inuu iska sii daayaa, meeshay doonayso ha tagtee, laakiinse iyada waa inuusan marnaba lacag ku iibin, oo waa inuusan iyada sidii addoon ula macaamiloon, maxaa yeelay, ceeb buu ku hoosaysiiyey.

But if afterwards she does not sit well in your mind, you shall set her free. You cannot sell her for money, nor can you oppress her by force. For you have humiliated her.

15 Haddii nin laba naagood qabo, oo uu mid jecel yahay, tan kalena neceb yahay, oo tan uu jecel yahay iyo tan uu neceb yahay labaduba ay isaga carruur u dhaleen, oo haddii wiilkiisa curadka ah tan uu neceb yahay ay dhashay,

If a man has two wives, one beloved and the other hated, and they have produced children by him, and if the son of the hated wife is the firstborn,

16 maalinta uu isagu wiilashiisa dhaxalsiiyo xoolihiisa waa inuusan naagtii uu jeclaa wiilkeeda ka dhigin curadka ka horreeyey tii uu nebcaa wiilkeedii ee curadka ahaa,

and if he wishes to divide his substance among his sons: he cannot make the son of the beloved wife the firstborn, and so prefer him before the son of the hated wife.

17 laakiinse naagtii uu nebcaa wiilkeedu inuu curadkiisii yahay waa inuu ku caddeeyaa qaybta labanlaabka ah ee uu ka siiyo waxa uu haysto oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa bilowgii xooggiisa, oo xaqa curadnimada isagaa leh.

Instead, he shall acknowledge the son of the hated wife as the firstborn, and he shall give to him a double portion of all that he has. For he is the first among his children, and the rights of the firstborn are owed to him.

18 Haddii nin leeyahay wiil madax adag oo caasi ah oo aan addeecin hadalka aabbihiis ama hadalka hooyadiis, oo in kastoo ay edbiyaan aan iyaga dhegaysan innaba,

If a man produces a disobedient and reckless son, who will not listen to the orders of his father or mother, and, having been corrected, shows contempt for obedience:

19 markaas aabbihiis iyo hooyadiis waa inay isaga soo qabtaan, oo intay odayaasha magaaladiisa u soo bixiyaan ay iridda magaalada keenaan,

they shall take him and lead him to the elders of the city and to the gate of judgment.

20 oo iyagu odayaasha magaaladiisa ha ku yidhaahdeen, Wiilkayaganu waa madax adag yahay, oo waa caasi, oo isagu dooni maayo inuu hadalkayaga addeeco. Isagu waa rabshaalow oo waa khamriyacab.

And they shall say to them: ‘This our son is reckless and disobedient. He shows contempt when listening to our admonitions. He occupies himself with carousing, and self-indulgence, and feasting.’

21 Oo markaas nimanka magaaladiisa oo dhammu waa inay isaga dhagxiyaan si uu u dhinto. Oo sidaas waa inaad sharka dhexdiinna uga saartaan, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu taas way maqli doonaan, markaasay cabsan doonaan.

Then the people of the city shall stone him to death. And he shall die, so that you may take away the evil from your midst. And so may all of Israel, upon hearing it, be very afraid.

22 Oo haddii nin galo dembi dhimasho istaahila, oo isaga la dilo oo aad geed ka soo deldeshaan,

When a man will have sinned in a matter which is punished by death, and, having been judged unto death, he has been hanged on a gallows:

23 jidhkiisa meydka ahu waa inaan habeenka oo dhan geedka lagu dayn, laakiinse hubaal waa inaad isla maalintaas aastaan si aydaan ku nijaasayn dalka uu Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu dhaxal idiin siiyey, maxaa yeelay, mid kasta oo geed ka soo deldelanu wuu ka inkaaran yahay xagga Ilaah.

his corpse shall not remain on the tree. Instead, he shall be buried on the same day. For he who hangs from a tree has been cursed by God, and you shall not defile your land, which the Lord your God will give to you as a possession.”
