Deuteronomy 16

Observe the month of Abib, and prepare the passover-sacrifice unto the Lord thy God; for in the month of Abib did the Lord thy God bring thee forth out of Egypt by night.

2 Ẹ fi ẹran kan rú ẹbọ bí ìrékọjá sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín láti inú ọ̀wọ́ ẹran tàbí agbo màlúù yín ní ibi tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò yàn bí ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀.

And thou shalt sacrifice the passover-offering unto the Lord thy God of sheep and oxen, in the place which the Lord will choose to let his name dwell there.

3 Ẹ má ṣe jẹ ẹ́ pẹ̀lú u àkàrà tí a fi ìwúkàrà ṣe, ṣùgbọ́n ọjọ́ méje ni kí ẹ fi jẹ àkàrà tí kò ní ìwúkàrà, àkàrà ìpọ́njú, nítorí pé pẹ̀lú ìkánjú ni ẹ kúrò ní Ejibiti: kí ẹ bá à lè rántí ìgbà tí ẹ kúrò ní Ejibiti ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé yín.

Thou shalt not eat therewith any leavened bread: seven days shalt thou eat therewith unleavened bread, the bread of affliction; for in haste didst thou go forth out of the land of Egypt; in order that thou mayest remember the day of thy going forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.

4 Kí a má sì ṣe rí àkàrà wíwú ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ nínú ilẹ̀ rẹ ní ijọ́ méje. Kí ìwọ má ṣe jẹ́ kí nǹkan kan ṣẹ́kù nínú ẹran tí ìwọ ó fi rú ẹbọ ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní di àárọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì.

And there shall not be seen with thee any leaven in all thy borders seven days: neither shall there any of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst in the evening, on the first day, remain all night until the morning.

5 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe ìrékọjá náà ní ìlúkílùú kankan, tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fi fún un yín

Thou mayest not slay the passover within any of thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee;

6 bí kò ṣe ibi tí yóò yàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀, níbẹ̀ ni ki ẹ ti ṣe ìrúbọ ìrékọjá náà ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ nígbà tí oòrùn bá ń wọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìrántí ìgbà tí ẹ kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.

But at the place which the Lord thy God will choose to let his name dwell in, there shalt thou slay the passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.

7 Ẹ sun ún kí ẹ sì jẹ ẹ́ ní ibi tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò yàn. Ní àárọ̀, kí ẹ padà sí àgọ́ ọ yín.

And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which the Lord thy God will choose; and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents.

8 Ọjọ́ mẹ́fà ní kí ẹ fi jẹ àkàrà aláìwú, ní ọjọ́ keje, ẹ pe àjọ kan fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, kí ẹ má sì ṣe iṣẹ́ kankan.

Six days shalt thou eat unleavened bread; and on the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work.

9 Ka ọ̀sẹ̀ méje láti ìgbà tí ẹ bá ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí fi dòjé ṣe ìkórè ọkà.

Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thyself: from the time thou beginnest to put the sickle to the corn, shalt thou begin to number seven weeks.

10 Nígbà náà ni kí ẹ ṣe àjọ ọ̀sẹ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, nípa pípèsè ọrẹ àtinúwá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìbùkún tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fún un yín.

And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks unto the Lord thy God with a tribute of a freewill-offering of thy hand, which thou shalt give: according as the Lord thy God shall have blessed thee.

11 Kí ẹ sì máa yọ̀ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ní ibi tí yóò yàn ní ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀: ẹ̀yin, àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin, àwọn ẹrú yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹrú yín obìnrin, àwọn Lefi tí ó wà ní ìlú yín, àti àwọn àjèjì, àwọn aláìní baba, àti àwọn opó tí ń gbé àárín yín.

And thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are in the midst of thee, in the place which the Lord thy God will choose to let his name dwell there.

12 Ẹ rántí pé, ẹ ti jẹ́ ẹrú ní Ejibiti rí, nítorí náà ẹ tẹ̀lé àwọn ìlànà wọ̀nyí dáradára.

And thou shalt remember that thou hast been a bond-man in Egypt; and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.

The feast of tabernacles shalt thou hold for thyself seven days, when thou hast gathered in the produce of thy threshing-floor and of thy wine-press:

14 Ẹ máa yọ̀ ní àkókò àjọ̀dún un yín, ẹ̀yin, àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, àwọn ẹrúkùnrin àti ẹrúbìnrin yín, àti àwọn Lefi, àwọn àjèjì, àwọn aláìní baba àti àwọn opó tí ń gbé ní àwọn ìlú u yín.

And thou shalt rejoice on thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy maid-servant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.

15 Ọjọ́ méje ni kí ẹ̀yin kí ó fi ṣe ayẹyẹ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ní ibi tí Olúwa yóò yàn. Nítorí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò bùkún un yín ní gbogbo ìkórè e yín, àti ní gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ yín, ayọ̀ ọ yín yóò sì kún.

Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord will choose; because the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy product, and in all the work of thy hands, and thou shalt only rejoice.

16 Ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹ́ta lọ́dún ni kí gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ kí ó farahàn níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, ní ibi tí yóò yàn. Níbi àjọ àkàrà àìwú, níbi àjọ ọ̀sẹ̀, àti àjọ àgọ́ ìpàdé. Ẹnikẹ́ni kò gbọdọ̀ wá sí iwájú Olúwa ní ọwọ́ òfo.

Three times in the year shall every one of thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he will choose: on the feast of unleavened bread, and on the feast of weeks, and on the feast of tabernacles; and no one shall appear before the Lord empty;

17 Kí olúkúlùkù ó mú ọrẹ wá bí agbára rẹ̀ ti tó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìbùkún Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ tí ó fi fún un ọ̀.

Every man according to what his hand can give, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.

18 Ẹ yan àwọn adájọ́ àti àwọn olóyè fún ẹ̀yà a yín kọ̀ọ̀kan, ní gbogbo ìlú tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò fún un yín, wọ́n sì gbọdọ̀ máa fi òtítọ́ ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.

Judges and officers shalt thou appoint unto thyself in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and they shall judge the people with a just judgment.

19 Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ yí ìdájọ́ po, ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe ojúsàájú ènìyàn. Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ gba àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ nítorí pé àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ ń fọ́ ojú ọlọ́gbọ́n, ó sì ń ba ọ̀rọ̀ olódodo jẹ́.

Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, and thou shalt not take a bribe; for the bribe blindeth the eyes of the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.

20 Ẹ tẹ̀lé ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ àní ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ nìkan, kí ẹ bá à lè gbé kí ẹ sì gba ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ń fún un yín.

Justice, only justice shalt thou pursue; in order that thou mayest live, and retain possession of the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

21 Ẹ má ṣe ri ère òrìṣà Aṣerah sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ pẹpẹ tí ẹ ti mọ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.

Thou shalt not plant unto thyself a grove, any tree, near the altar of the Lord thy God, which thou shalt make unto thyself.

22 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gbé òkúta òrìṣà gbígbẹ́ kan kalẹ̀ fún ara yín, nítorí èyí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín kórìíra.

Neither shalt thou set thee up any statue, which the Lord thy God hateth.
