Deuteronomy 25
1 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn méjì bá ń jà, kí wọn kó ẹjọ́ lọ sí ilé ìdájọ́, kí àwọn onídàájọ́ dá ẹjọ́ náà, kí wọn dá àre fún aláre àti ẹ̀bi fún ẹlẹ́bi.
If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, and the judges judge them, by justifying the righteous, and condemning the wicked,
2 Bí ó bá tọ́ láti na ẹlẹ́bi, kí onídàájọ́ dá a dọ̀bálẹ̀ kí a sì nà án ní ojú u rẹ̀ ní iye pàṣán tí ó tọ́ sí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó sẹ̀.
then it shall be, if the wicked man deserve to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to the measure of his wickedness, by number.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n kò gbọdọ̀ fún un ju ogójì pàṣán lọ. Bí ó bá nà án ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ, arákùnrin rẹ̀ yóò di ẹni ìrẹ̀sílẹ̀ ní ojú rẹ̀.
Forty stripes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should be dishonoured before thine eyes.
4 Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ di màlúù ti ń tẹ ọkà lẹ́nu.
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
5 Bí àwọn arákùnrin bá ń gbé pọ̀, tí ọ̀kan nínú wọn bá sì kú, tí kò sí ní ọmọkùnrin, kí aya òkú má ṣe ní àlejò ará òde ní ọkọ rẹ̀. Arákùnrin ọkọ rẹ̀ ni kí ó wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, kí ó fi ṣe aya, kí ó sì ṣe iṣẹ́ arákùnrin ọkọ fún un.
If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not be married abroad unto one not of his kin; her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
6 Ọmọkùnrin tí ó bá kọ́ bí ni yóò máa jẹ́ orúkọ arákùnrin rẹ̀ tí ó kú náà, kí orúkọ rẹ̀ má ba á parẹ́ ní Israẹli.
And it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ọkùnrin náà kò bá fẹ́ fi aya arákùnrin rẹ̀ ṣe aya rẹ̀, obìnrin náà yóò lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn àgbàgbà ní ẹnu-bodè ìlú láti sọ pé, “Arákùnrin ọkọ ọ̀ mi kọ̀ láti gbé orúkọ arákùnrin rẹ̀ ró ní Israẹli. Kò ní ṣe ojúṣe rẹ̀ bí arákùnrin ọkọ mi sí mi.”
And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say: 'My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother unto me.'
8 Nígbà náà ni àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú rẹ̀ yóò pè é, wọn yóò sì bá sọ̀rọ̀. Bí ó bá sì kọ̀ jálẹ̀ tí ó bá sọ pé, “Èmi kò fẹ́ láti fẹ́ ẹ,”
Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him; and if he stand, and say: 'I like not to take her';
9 opó arákùnrin rẹ̀ yìí yóò lọ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ ní ojú àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú rẹ̀, yóò yọ bàtà ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ kan, yóò sì tu itọ́ sí ọkùnrin náà lójú, yóò sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí a ṣe sí ọkùnrin tí kò jẹ́ kí ìdílé arákùnrin rẹ̀ wà títí ayé.”
then shall his brother's wife draw nigh unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say: 'So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother's house.'
10 A ó sì mọ ìdílé arákùnrin yìí ní Israẹli gẹ́gẹ́ bí “Ìdílé tí a yọ bàtà rẹ̀.”
And his name shall be called in Israel The house of him that had his shoe loosed.
11 Bí ọkùnrin méjì bá ń jà, tí ìyàwó ọ̀kan nínú wọn bá sì wá láti gbèjà ọkọ rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọkùnrin tí ń lù ú, tí ó sì nawọ́ di nǹkan ọkùnrin abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ mú.
When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets;
12 Ìwọ yóò gé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ náà kúrò. Má ṣe ṣàánú fún un.
then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall have no pity.
13 Má ṣe ní oríṣìí ìtẹ̀wọ̀n méjì tó yàtọ̀ sí ara wọn nínú àpò rẹ, ọ̀kan wúwo àti ọ̀kan fífúyẹ́.
Thou shalt not have in thy bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
14 Má ṣe ní oríṣìí ìwọ̀n méjì tí ó yàtọ̀ sí ara wọn ní ilé è rẹ: ọ̀kan fífẹ̀, ọ̀kan kékeré.
Thou shalt not have in thy house diverse measures, a great and a small.
15 O gbọdọ̀ ní ìtẹ̀wọ̀n àti òsùwọ̀n pípé àti ti òtítọ́ nítorí náà kí ìwọ kí ó lè pẹ́ ní ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fún ọ.
A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just measure shalt thou have; that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
16 Nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run kórìíra ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí, àní ẹnikẹ́ni tí ń ṣe àìṣòdodo.
For all that do such things, even all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
17 Rántí ohun tí àwọn ará Amaleki ṣe sí i yín ní ọ̀nà nígbà tí ẹ̀ ń jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá.
Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way as ye came forth out of Egypt;
18 Nígbà tí àárẹ̀ mú un yín tí agara sì dá a yín, wọ́n pàdé e yín ní ọ̀nà àjò o yín, wọ́n gé àwọn tí ó rẹ̀yìn kúrò, wọn kò ní ìbẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run.
how he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were enfeebled in thy rear, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.
19 Nígbà tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín bá fún un yín ní ìsinmi lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá yín tí ó yí i yín ká ní ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run ń fi fún yín láti ni ní ìní, ẹ̀yin yóò sì pa ìrántí Amaleki rẹ́ kúrò lábẹ́ ọ̀run. Má ṣe gbàgbé.
Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget.
