Exodo 22
1 Kung magnakaw ang isang lalaki ng isang baka o isang tupa at pinatay niya o ipinagbili ito, pagkatapos dapat siyang magbayad ng limang baka para sa isang baka, at apat na tupa para sa isang tupa.
Yahweh also said, “If someone steals a bull or a sheep, and then slaughters it [to sell it or to sacrifice it] or sells its [meat to someone else], he must pay five bulls for the bull [that he stole], and [he must pay] four sheep for the sheep [that he stole].
2 Kung ang magnanakaw ay natagpuang naninira, at kung nasaktan at siya ay namatay, sa ganoong kaso walang sinuman ang ituturing na may sala sa kaniyang kamatayan.
If a thief is caught while he is breaking into someone else’s house [at night], if [the one who catches him] kills the thief, he is not guilty of murdering him.
3 Pero kung sumikat ang araw bago niya sinira, salang pagpatay ng tao ang ipapataw sa taong pumatay sa kaniya. Ang magnanakaw ay dapat gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala. Kung wala siyang pag-aari, pagkatapos dapat siyang ipagbili dahil sa kaniyang pagnanakaw.
But if that happens during the daytime, [the one who killed the thief] is guilty of murdering him. The thief must pay for what he stole. If he has no [animals with which to pay for the one that he stole], he must be sold to [become someone’s else’s slave and the money must be used] to pay for what he stole.
4 Kung ang ninakaw na hayop ay natagpuang buhay sa kaniyang pag-aari, maging ito ay isang asno, o isang tupa, dapat siyang magbayad ng doble.
If the thief still has the animal when he is caught, whether it is a bull or a donkey or a sheep, and it is still alive, the thief must give back [the stolen animal as well as giving] two [additional] animals for each one that he stole.
5 Kung magpapastol ang isang lalaki ng kaniyang mga baka sa isang bukid o sa ubasan at hinayaang nakakawala ang kaniyang hayop, at kumain ito sa bukid ng ibang tao, dapat siyang gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala mula sa pinakamainam sa kaniyang sariling bukid at mula sa pinakamainam sa kaniyang sariling ubasan.
If someone allows his animals to (graze/eat the grass) in his field or in his vineyard, and if they stray away and eat the crops in another person’s field, the owner of the animals must pay [the owner of those crops] by giving him the best crops from his own field or vineyard.
6 Kung kumalat ang apoy at kumalat sa mga tinik kaya ang mga nakasalansan na butil, o nakatayo na butil, o ang bukid ay natupok, siya na nagsimula ng apoy ay dapat siguraduhing gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala.
Suppose someone starts a fire in his own field, and the fire spreads through the grass and starts burning in someone else’s field, and the fire burns grain that is growing or grain that is already [cut and] stacked. Then the person who started the fire must pay completely for the damage.
7 Kung magbibigay ng pera o ari-arian ang isang lalaki sa kaniyang kapitbahay para sa ligtas na pag-iingat, at kung ito ay ninakaw mula sa bahay ng lalaki, kung natagpuan ang magnanakaw, ang magnanakaw na iyon ay dapat magbayad ng doble.
Suppose someone gives to another person some money or other valuable goods and asks him to guard them [in his house for a while]. If those things are stolen from that person’s house, if the thief is caught, he must pay back twice [as much as he stole].
8 Pero kung ang magnanakaw ay hindi natagpuan, pagkatapos ang may-ari ng bahay ay dapat humarap sa mga hukom para tingnan kung nilagay niya ang kaniyang sariling kamay sa pag-aari ng kaniyang kapitbahay.
But if the thief is not caught, the owner of the house [from which the things were stolen] must stand before the judges, so that the judges can determine whether [the owner of the house] was the one who took the other man’s goods [and sold them to someone else].
9 Sa bawat pagtatalo tungkol sa isang bagay, maging ito ay baka, asno, tupa, damit o anumang nawawalang bagay tungkol sa kung alin ang sinasabi ng isa, “Kabilang ito sa akin,” ang pag-aangkin ng dalawang panig ay kailangang humarap sa mga hukom. Ang taong makitaan ng mga hukom na siyang may sala ay dapat magbayad ng doble sa kaniyang kapitbahay.
If two people argue about which one of them owns a bull or a donkey or a sheep or some clothing, or something else that has been lost, the two people who each claim/say that the item belongs to them must stand before the judges. The one whom the judges declare is lying must pay back [to the real owner] twice as many bulls or donkeys or sheep or pieces of clothing.
10 Kung magbibigay ng isang asno, isang baka, isang tupa o anumang hayop ang isang lalaki sa kaniyang kapitbahay para pangalagaan, at kung ito ay namatay o nasaktan o natangay ito nang walang sinumang nakakita,
Suppose someone gives his donkey or bull or sheep or some other animal to someone else and asks him to take care of it [for a while], and the animal dies or is injured or is stolen while no one is watching.
11 isang panunumpa kay Yahweh ang dapat nilang gawin, kung walang isang tao na naglagay sa kaniyang kamay sa pagmamay-ari ng kaniyang kapitbahay. Kailangang tanggapin ng may-ari ito at ang isa ay hindi na kailangang gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala.
Then the person [who was taking care of the animal] must (swear/solemnly declare), knowing that God is listening, that he did not steal the animal. If he did not steal it the owner of the animal must accept/believe that the other person is telling the truth, and the other person will not have to pay anything back to the owner.
12 Pero kung ninakaw ito mula sa kaniya, ang isa ay dapat gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala sa may-ari para dito.
But if the animal was stolen [while he was supposed to be taking care of it], the man who promised to take care of it must pay back the owner for the animal.
13 Kung ang hayop ay nagkagutay-gutay, hayaan na dalhin ng isang tao ang hayop bilang katibayan. Hindi siya kailangang magbayad kung anuman ang nasira.
If [he says that] the animal was killed by wild animals, he must bring back the remains of the animal that was killed and show it to the animal’s owner. If he does that, he will not have to pay anything for the animal.
14 Kung hihiram ang isang tao ng anumang hayop mula sa kaniyang kapitbahay at ang hayop ay nasaktan o namatay na hindi ito kasama ng may-ari, ang ibang tao ay dapat siguraduhing gumawa ng pagbabayad-pinsala.
If someone borrows an animal, and if that animal is hurt or dies when its owner is not there, the one who borrowed it must pay the owner for the animal.
15 Pero kung ang may-ari ay kasama nito, ang ibang tao ay hindi na kailangan magbayad; kung inupahan ang hayop, ito ay babayaran sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang bayad paupahan.
But if that happens when the owner of the animal is there, the one who borrowed it will not have to pay back anything. If the man who borrowed it only rented it, the money that he paid to rent it will be enough to pay for the animal [dying or being injured].”
16 Kung inaakit ng isang lalaki ang isang babaeng birhen na wala pang kasunduang magpakasal at kung siya ay kaniyang sinipingan, dapat siguraduhin niyang gawing asawa ang babae sa pamamagitan ng pagbabayad ng kasal-kayamanan na kinakailangan para dito.
“If a man persuades a girl/woman to have sex with him, a girl/woman who (is a virgin/has never had sex with any man) and who is not engaged to be married, he must pay the bride price for her and marry her.
17 Kung ang kaniyang ama ay ganap na tumangging ibigay siya sa lalaki, ang lalaki ay dapat magbayad ng pera katumbas sa bayad-kayamanan ng mga birhen.
But if her father refuses to allow her to marry him, he must pay to the woman’s father the amount of money that is equal to the amount of bride price money that men pay for virgins.
18 Hindi ninyo dapat hayaang mabuhay ang isang babaeng mangkukulam.
You must execute any woman who (practices sorcery/is a shaman).
19 Sinumang sumiping sa isang hayop ay dapat siguradong malalagay sa kamatayan.
You must execute any person who has sex with an animal.
20 Sinumang magsasakripisyo sa anumang diyos maliban kay Yahweh ay dapat ganap na wasakin.
You [must offer sacrifices] only to Yahweh. You must execute anyone who offers a sacrifice to any [other] god.
21 Huwag dapat ninyong gawan ng masama ang isang dayuhan o pagmalupitan siya, dahil naging mga dayuhan din kayo sa lupain ng Ehipto.
You must not mistreat a foreigner [who comes to live among you]. Do not forget that you were previously foreigners in Egypt.
22 Huwag dapat ninyong apihin ang sinumang balo o mga batang ulila sa ama.
You must not mistreat any widow or any orphan.
23 Kung sasaktan ninyo sila, at kung tumawag sila sa akin, na si Yahweh, siguradong pakikinggan ko ang kanilang tawag.
If you mistreat them and they cry out to me [for help], I will hear them.
24 Magliliyab ang aking galit, at papatayin ko kayo sa pamamagitan ng espada; ang inyong mga asawa ay magiging balo, at ang inyong mga anak ay magiging ulila sa ama.
And I will be angry with you, and I will cause you to be killed in a war [MTY]. Your wives will become widows, and your children will no longer have fathers.
25 Kung magpapahiram kayo ng pera sa sinuman sa aking mga tao sa gitna ninyo na mga mahihirap, hindi kayo dapat matulad sa isang nagpapatubo sa kaniya o singilin siya ng may tubo.
If you lend money to any of my people who are poor, do not act like a moneylender and require him to pay interest on the money.
26 Kung kukunin ninyo ang damit ng inyong kapitbahay bilang pangako, dapat ninyong isauli ito sa kaniya bago lumubog ang araw,
If he gives you his cloak to guarantee [that he will pay the money back], you must give the cloak back to him before the sun goes down,
27 dahil iyon lamang ang kaniyang tanging pantakip; ito ay ang kaniyang damit para sa kaniyang katawan. Ano pa ang kaniyang ipangtutulog? Kapag tumawag siya sa akin, pakikinggan ko siya, dahil ako ay mahabagin.
because he needs it to keep him warm [during the night]. (That is the only covering that poor people have when they sleep at night./What else will he cover himself with during the night?) [RHQ] [If you do not act mercifully toward him by returning his cloak], when he cries out to me asking for my help, I will help him, because I [always act] mercifully.
28 Hindi dapat ninyo ako nilalapastangan, ako na inyong Diyos, ni sumpain ang namumuno sa inyong bayan.
Do not (revile/speak evil about) me, and do not (curse/ask me to do harmful things to) any ruler of your people.
29 Hindi dapat ninyo ipagkait ang inyong mga handog mula sa inyong ani o sa inyong pisaan ng ubas. Dapat ninyong ibigay sa akin ang panganay ng inyong mga anak na lalaki.
(Do not withhold from/Give) me the best parts of the grain that you harvest and of the olive oil and the wine that you produce.
30 Dapat din ninyong gawin sa inyong mga baka at sa inyong tupa. Dahil sa loob ng pitong araw mananatili sila sa kanilang mga ina, pero sa loob ng ikawalong araw dapat ninyong ibigay sila sa akin.
You must dedicate your firstborn sons to me. Similarly, your firstborn [male] cattle and sheep belong to me. After those animals are born, allow them to stay with their mothers for seven days. On the eighth day, offer them to me [as a sacrifice].
31 Kayo ay magiging bayan na ibubukod para sa akin. Kaya huwag dapat kayong kumain ng anumang karne na ginutay-gutay ng mga hayop sa bukid. Sa halip, dapat ninyong itapon ito sa mga aso.
You are people who are (completely dedicated to/set apart for) me. [And I detest] the meat of any animal that has been killed by wild animals. Therefore you should not eat such meat. Instead, throw it where the dogs [can eat it].”
