Deuteronomy 22
1 If you see someone's cow or sheep wandering around, don't just ignore it. Make sure you take it back to its owner.
“Nou pa pou wè bèf a vwazen parèy nou, oswa mouton k ap pati, pou nou pa okipe yo. Anverite, nou va mennen yo retounen bay vwazen parèy nou an.
2 If its owner doesn't live near you, or if you don't know who it is, take the animal home with you and keep it until the owner comes looking, then you can return it.
Si vwazen nou an pa pre nou, oswa nou pa konnen li, alò, nou va mennen li lakay nou, e li va rete la jiskaske vwazen nou vin chache li, pou nou remèt li a li menm.
3 Do the same for whatever else you find that someone has lost—a donkey, a cloak, anything. Don't just ignore it.
Konsa, nou va fè avèk bourik li. Nou va fè menm jan an avèk manto li. Nou va fè menm jan an avèk nenpòt bagay ke li pèdi lè nou twouve l. Ou pa gen dwa neglije bagay sa yo.
4 If you see someone's donkey or cow that has fallen down on the road, don't just ignore it. Help lift it up.
“Nou pa pou wè bourik, ni bèf a vwazen nou ki tonbe nan chemen, pou nou pa okipe yo. Anverite, nou va ede li leve yo.
5 A woman must not wear men's clothing, and a man must not wear women's clothing. Anyone who does this offends the Lord your God.
“Yon fanm pa pou mete rad gason, ni gason mete rad fanm. Lè yon moun fè bagay sa a, yo abominab a SENYÈ Bondye nou an.
6 If you happen to find a bird's nest with chicks or eggs, whether it's in a tree or on the ground beside the road, and the mother is sitting on the chicks or eggs, don't take the mother with the young.
“Si nou vin jwenn yon nich zwazo akote chemen an, nan nenpòt pyebwa oswa atè, avèk ti jèn zwazo yo oswa ze yo, epi manman an chita sou ti zwazo oswa sou ze yo, nou pa kapab pran manman an ansanm avèk ti jèn zwazo yo.
7 You may take the young, but make sure you let the mother go, so that you will do well and have a good long life.
Nou va, anverite, kite manman an sòti lib. Men jèn ti zwazo yo, nou kapab pran yo pou nou menm, pou sa kapab byen pou nou e pou nou kapab viv pandan anpil jou.
8 When you build a new house, be sure to install a railing around your roof, so that you won't be held guilty if someone dies falling from it.
“Lè nou bati yon kay tounèf, nou va fè yon balistrad ki antoure teras twati a pou nou pa vin koupab de san si yon moun ta vin tonbe.
9 Don't plant your vineyard with another kind of crop. Otherwise everything you produce—the crop you planted and the fruit of your vineyard—must be dedicated to the Lord.
“Nou pa pou plante chan rezen an avèk de kalite semans; oswa, tout pwodwi ki sòti nan sa nou plante a, ak pwodwi chan rezen an, va vin gate.
10 Don't harness an ox and a donkey together when you plow.
“Nou pa pou raboure avèk yon bèf ak yon bourik ansanm.
11 Don't wear clothes made of wool and linen woven together.
“Nou pa pou mete twal ki mele len avèk twal fen tankou koton ansanm.
12 Put tassels on the hem of the cloak you use to cover yourself.
Nou va fè ponpon nan kat kwen vètman ki kouvri nou yo.
13 If a man marries a woman and sleeps with her, but ends up hating her,
“Si yon nonm pran yon madanm pou ale sou kabann avèk li, epi pita li vin vire kont li
14 and accuses her of being immoral, giving her a bad name, saying, “I married this woman and slept with her, but I found out she wasn't a virgin.”
pou l akize li de zak k ap gate repitasyon li, pou l di: ‘Mwen te pran fanm sa a, men lè m te pwoche l, mwen pa t twouve li vyèj,’
15 The woman's parents are to bring the proof of her virginity to the elders at the town gate,
alò, papa avèk manman fi a va pran li e prezante temwayaj prèv ke li te vyèj bay ansyen lavil yo devan pòtay la.
16 and the father will explain to them, “I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he has ended up hating her.
Papa a fi a va di a ansyen yo: ‘Mwen te bay pitit mwen a mesye sila a kòm madanm, men li te vire kont li.
17 Now he has accused her of being immoral, saying, ‘I found out that your daughter wasn't a virgin.’ But here's the proof of her virginity.” The parents shall spread out the sheet in front of the town elders.
Konsa, veye byen, li te akize li a zak ki gate repitasyon li. Li te di: “Mwen pa t twouve fi nou an vyèj.” Men temwayaj vijinite li.’ Yo va ouvri vètman an devan ansyen lavil la.
18 Then the elders of that city shall take the man and punish him.
Konsa, ansyen yo va pran nonm nan pou ba li chatiman.
19 They shall also fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give the money to the young woman's father, because this man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name. She is to remain his wife; he is not allowed to divorce her as long as he lives.
Konsa, yo va fè l peye san sik an ajan, pou bay a papa fi a, akoz li te fè difamasyon piblikman sou yon fi an Israël. Epi konsa, li va rete toujou kòm madanm li. Li p ap ka divòse ak li pandan tout jou li yo.
20 But if the accusation is true, and there's no proof of the woman's virginity,
“Men si akizasyon sa a vrè, ke fi a pa t vyèj,
21 she is to be taken to the door of her father's house, and there the men of her town are to stone her to death. She has done something disgraceful in Israel by acting immorally in her father's house. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
alò, yo va mennen fi a deyò pòtay lakay papa l la, epi mesye lavil yo va lapide li jiskaske li mouri akoz li te komèt yon betiz lèd an Israël, lè l te fè pwostitisyon lakay papa l la. Konsa, nou va retire mal la pami nou.
22 If a man is found sleeping with someone else's wife, both the man and the woman must die. You must eliminate the evil from Israel.
“Si yo twouve yon nonm kouche avèk yon fanm ki marye, alò, yo toude va mouri, nonm ki te kouche avè l la, ansanm ak fanm nan. Konsa, nou va retire mal la sou Israël.
23 If a man meets a girl, a virgin engaged to another man, and sleeps with her there in the town,
“Si gen yon fi ki vyèj ki fiyanse ak yon nonm, epi yon lòt mesye twouve li nan vil la, e kouche avèk li,
24 then you must take both of them to the town gate and stone them to death. The young woman is guilty because she did not cry out for help in the town, and the man is guilty because he has brought shame on someone else's fiancée. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
alò, nou va mennen yo toude deyò pòtay vil sa a, epi nou va lapide yo ak kout wòch jiska lanmò. Fi a, akoz li pa t kriye fò nan vil la, e mesye a, akoz li te vyole fanm vwazen li an. Konsa, nou va retire mal la pami nou.
25 However, if the man happens to meet a woman who is engaged out in the countryside, and he attacks her and rapes her, only the man has to die.
“Men si se nan chan deyò ke mesye a vin jwenn fi ki fiyanse a; epi mesye a fòse li kouche avèk li; alò, sèlman mesye ki kouche avèk li a, va mouri.
26 Don't do anything to the woman, because she has not committed a sin punishable by death. (This is the same kind of situation as when a man attacks someone else and murders them.)
Men nou p ap fè fi a anyen. Nanpwen peche nan fi a ki merite lanmò; paske menm jan ke yon nonm leve kont vwazen li pou touye li a, se konsa ka sa a ye.
27 When the man raped the woman who was engaged out in the countryside, she shouted out, but there wasn't anyone there to rescue her.
Lè li te twouve li nan chan an, fi fiyanse a te kriye fò, men li pa t gen pèsòn la pou sove l.
28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not engaged, and he grabs her and rapes her, and someone sees them,
“Si yon nonm twouve yon fi ki vyèj, ki pa fiyanse, epi sezi li pou kouche avèk li, e li vin dekouvri,
29 the man must pay the woman's father fifty shekels of silver, and he must marry her because he has brought shame on her. He is not allowed to divorce her as long as he lives.
alò, mesye ki te kouche avè l la, va bay papa fi a senkant sik an ajan. Konsa, li va devni madanm li akoz li te imilye li. Li pa kapab divòse ak li pandan tout jou li yo.
30 A man must not marry his father's wife, so that he won't bring shame on his father.
Yon gason pa pou pran madanm a papa li. Li pa pou dekouvri jip papa l.
