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 “Bí a bá mú olè níbi ti ó ti ń fọ́lé, ti a sì lù ú pa, ẹni tí ó lù ú pa náà kò ní ẹ̀bi ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
If a thief shall be found breaking through, and be smitten that he die, [there shall] no blood [be shed] for him.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n ti ó bá ṣẹlẹ̀ ni ojú ọ̀sán, a ó kà á si ìpànìyàn. Ọkùnrin ti ó lù ú pa náà yóò ni ẹ̀bi ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀. “Olè gbọdọ̀ san ohun tí ó jí padà. Ṣùgbọ́n tí kò bá ni ohun ti ó lè fi san án padà, a ó tà á, a ó sì fi sanwó ohun tí ó jí gbé padà.
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 Bí a bá rí ẹran tí ó jí gbé náà ni ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ní ààyè: ìbá ṣe akọ màlúù, akọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tàbí àgùntàn, yóò san án padà ní ìlọ́po méjì.
If the theft shall be certainly found in his hand alive, whether an ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
5 “Bí ọkùnrin kan bá ń bọ́ ẹran ọ̀sìn rẹ̀ lórí pápá tàbí nínú ọgbà àjàrà, tí ó sì jẹ́ kí ó lọ jẹ nínú oko ẹlòmíràn, a ó mú kí ó san ohun ti ẹran rẹ̀ jẹ padà pẹ̀lú èyí tí ó dára jù nínú oko tàbí nínú ọgbà rẹ̀ (ẹlòmíràn padà fún un).
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 “Bí iná bá ṣẹ́ tí ó kán lu igbó tí ó sì jó àká ọkà tàbí gbogbo oko náà, ẹni tí iná ṣẹ́ lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ yóò san ohun tí iná ti ó ṣẹ́ jó padà.
If fire shall break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field shall be consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
7 “Bí ọkùnrin kan bá fún aládùúgbò rẹ̀ ní fàdákà tàbí ohun èlò fún ìtọ́jú, ti wọ́n sì jí gbé lọ́dọ̀ aládùúgbò rẹ̀, tí a bá mú irú olè bẹ́ẹ̀, yóò san án padà ní ìlọ́po méjì.
If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief shall be found, let him pay double.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n ti a kò bá rí olè náà mú, baálé ilé náà yóò fi ara hàn níwájú ìdájọ́ láti jẹ́ kí a mọ̀ bí òun fúnra rẹ̀ ni ó gbé ohun ti ó sọnù náà.
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 neighbor's goods.
9 Bí ẹnìkan bá ni akọ màlúù, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àgùntàn, aṣọ tàbí ohun ìní mìíràn tí ó sọnù ní ọ̀nà ti kò bá òfin mu, tí a sì rí ẹni ti ó sọ pé òun ni ó ní ín, àwọn méjèèjì yóò mú ẹjọ́ wọn wá sí iwájú adájọ́. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí adájọ́ bá dá lẹ́bi yóò san án ni ìlọ́po méjì padà fún ẹnìkejì rẹ̀.
For all manner of trespass, [whether it be] for ox, for ass, 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 neighbor.
10 “Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá fún aládùúgbò rẹ̀ ní kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, akọ màlúù, àgùntàn tàbí ẹranko mìíràn láti bá òun tọ́jú rẹ̀, tí ó sì kú, tàbí tí ó fi ara pa, tàbí tí a jí gbé, níbi tí kò ti sí ẹni tí o ṣe àkíyèsí.
If a man shall deliver to his neighbor an ass, 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 Wọn yóò búra sí ọ̀rọ̀ náà láàrín ara wọn ni iwájú Olúwa láti fihàn pé òun kò ní ọwọ́ nínú sísọnù ohun ọ̀sìn náà, olóhun gbọdọ̀ gba bẹ́ẹ̀, a kò sì ní san ohunkóhun fún un.
[Then] shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and the owner of it shall accept of it, and he shall not make restitution.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n ti wọ́n bá jí ẹranko náà gbé ni ọ̀dọ̀ aládùúgbò rẹ̀, yóò san ẹ̀san padà fún olúwa rẹ̀.
And if it shall be stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
13 Bí ẹranko búburú bá fà á ya, ó ní láti mú àyakù ẹran náà wá gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀rí, kò sì ní san ẹran náà padà.
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 “Bí ẹnìkan bá sì yá ẹranko lọ́dọ̀ aládùúgbò rẹ̀, tí ẹranko náà sì fi ara pa, tàbí kí ó kú nígbà tí ẹni tí ó ni í kò sí nítòsí. O gbọdọ̀ san án padà.
And if a man shall borrow [aught] of his neighbor, and it shall be hurt, or die, the owner of it [being] not with it, he shall surely make [it] good.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n ti ó bá jẹ́ wí pé olóhun bá wà pẹ̀lú ẹranko náà, ẹni tí ó ya lò kò ní san ẹ̀san padà. Bí a bá yá ẹranko náà lò, owó tí ó fi yá a lò ni yóò fi tan àdánù ẹranko tí ó kú.
[But] if the owner of it shall [be] with it, he shall not make [it] good: if it [be] a hired [thing], it came for his hire.
16 “Bí ọkùnrin kan bá fi àrékérekè mú wúńdíá kan, ẹni tí kò pinnu láti fẹ́, tí ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, yóò san owó orí rẹ̀, yóò sì fi ṣe aya rẹ̀.
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 Bí baba ọmọbìnrin náà bá kọ̀ jálẹ̀ láti fi fún un ní aya, ó ni láti san owó tó tó owó orí rẹ̀ fún fífẹ́ ẹ ní wúńdíá.
If her father shall utterly refuse to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dower of virgins.
18 “Má ṣe jẹ́ kí àjẹ́ kí ó wà láààyè.
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
19 “Ẹnikẹ́ni ti ó bá bá ẹranko lòpọ̀ ní a ó pa.
Whoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
20 “Ẹnikẹ́ni ti ó bá rú ẹbọ sí òrìṣà yàtọ̀ sí Olúwa nìkan, ni a ó yà sọ́tọ̀ fún ìparun.
He that sacrificeth to [any] god, save to the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
21 “Ẹ má ṣe fi ìyà jẹ àlejò tàbí ni wọ́n lára, nítorí ìwọ pẹ̀lú ti jẹ́ àjèjì ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti rí.
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22 “Má ṣe yan opó tàbí ọmọ òrukàn jẹ.
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
23 Bí ìwọ bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, bí wọn bá ké pè mi. Èmi yóò sì gbọ́ ohùn igbe wọn.
If thou shalt afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry:
24 Ìbínú mi yóò ru sókè. Èmi yóò sì fi idà pa ọ. Ìyàwó rẹ yóò di opó, àwọn ọmọ rẹ yóò sì di aláìní baba.
And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
25 “Bí ìwọ bá yá ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ènìyàn mi tí ìyà ń jẹ láàrín yín lówó, má ṣe dàbí ayánilówó, kí o má sì gba èlé.
If thou shalt lend money to [any of] my people [that is] poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
26 Bí ìwọ bá gba aṣọ aládùúgbò rẹ ni ẹ̀jẹ́, ìwọ gbọdọ̀ fún un padà kí oòrùn tó ó wọ̀,
If thou shalt at all take thy neighbor's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it to him by the setting of the sun.
27 nítorí aṣọ yìí nìkan ní ó ní ti ó lè fi bo àṣírí ara. Kí ni ohun mìíràn ti yóò fi sùn? Nígbà ti ó bá gbé ohun rẹ̀ sókè sí mi, èmi yóò gbọ́ nítorí aláàánú ni èmi.
For that [is] his only covering, it [is] his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth to me, that I will hear; for I [am] gracious.
28 “Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Ọlọ́run tàbí gégùn lé orí ìjòyè àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.
Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
29 “Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ lọ́ra láti mú ọrẹ wá fún mi láti inú ìre oko rẹ àti láti inú wáìnì rẹ. “Àkọ́bí ọmọ rẹ ọkùnrin ni ìwọ yóò fi fún mi.
Thou shalt not delay [to offer] the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the first-born of thy sons shalt thou give to me.
30 Ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ pẹ̀lú agbo màlúù rẹ àti agbo àgùntàn rẹ. Jẹ́ kí wọn wà lọ́dọ̀ ìyá wọn fún ọjọ́ méje, kí ìwọ kí ó sì fi wọ́n fún mi ní ọjọ́ kẹjọ.
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 “Ẹ̀yin yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mímọ́ mi. Nítorí náà má ṣe jẹ ẹran ti ẹranko búburú fàya: ẹ fi fún ajá jẹ.
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.
