Deteronòm 22
1 Lè nou jwenn bèf osinon kabrit yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou ki kase kòd, pa fè tankou nou pa wè. Se pou nou pran l' mennen l' tounen ba li.
Thou shalt not pass by if thou seest thy brother’s ox, or his sheep go astray: but thou shalt bring them back to thy brother.
2 Men, si mèt bèt la rete twò lwen, osinon si nou pa konnen pou ki moun li ye, n'a pran l', n'a mennen l' lakay nou. N'a kenbe l' lakay nou jouk mèt li va vin chache l'. Lè sa a n'a renmèt li li.
And if thy brother be not nigh, or thou know him not: thou shalt bring them to thy house, and they shall be with thee until thy brother seek them, and receive them.
3 N'a fè menm jan an tou pou bourik, rad osinon nenpòt bagay yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou ta rive pèdi epi se nou ki ta jwenn li. Pa fè tankou nou pa wè sa.
Thou shalt do in like manner with his ass, and with his raiment, and with every thing that is thy brother’s, which is lost: if thou find it, neglect it not as pertaining to another.
4 Lè nou wè bourik osinon bèf yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou kouche nan chemen, pa fè tankou nou pa wè sa. Se pou nou ride l' fè l' kanpe ankò.
If thou see thy brother’s ass or his ox to be fallen down in the way, thou shalt not slight it, but shalt lift it up with him.
5 Fanm pa gen dwa mete rad gason sou yo. Gason pa gen dwa mete rad fanm sou yo. Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pa vle wè moun k'ap fè bagay konsa.
A woman shall not be clothed with man’s apparel, neither shall a man use woman’s apparel: for he that doeth these things is abominable before God.
6 Si sou chemen nou, nou jwenn yon nich zwazo, swa sou yon pyebwa, swa atè avèk manman zwazo a kouche sou pitit li yo, osinon sou ze l'ap kouve, piga nou pran manman zwazo a sou nich la.
If thou find as thou walkest by the way, a bird’s nest in a tree, or on the ground, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take her with her young:
7 N'a kite manman zwazo a vole ale, n'a pran ti zwazo yo sèlman. Se konsa Bondye va fè tout zafè nou mache byen, l'a fè nou viv lontan.
But shalt let her go, keeping the young which thou hast caught: that it may be well with thee, and thou mayst live a long time.
8 Lè n'ap bati yon kay nèf, n'a mete balistrad pou moun pa sot tonbe sou teras twati a. Konsa yo p'ap ka rann nou reskonsab si yon moun ta rive tonbe epi li mouri lakay nou.
When thou buildest a new house, thou shalt make a battlement to the roof round about: lest blood be shed in thy house, and thou be guilty, if any one slip, and fall down headlong.
9 Pa janm plante ankenn lòt kalite grenn nan jaden rezen nou. Si nou fè sa, nou p'ap ka sèvi ni avèk rezen yo ni avèk rekòt lòt grenn nou te plante yo.
Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest both the seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of the vineyard, be sanctified together.
10 Piga nou mete bèf ak bourik ansanm pou rale chari.
Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together.
11 Piga nou janm mete sou nou rad ki fèt ak divès kalite lenn ak twal fin blan tise ansanm.
Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of woollen and linen together.
12 N'a mete yon ponpon nan kat kwen rad nou mete sou nou.
Thou shalt make strings in the hem at the four corners of thy cloak, wherewith thou shalt be covered.
13 Sipoze yon nonm pran yon fanm pou madanm li, li kouche avè l', epi apre sa, li vin pa renmen l' ankò.
If a man marry a wife, and afterwards hate her,
14 Lè sa a, li ba l' tout kalite defo ki genyen, li avili l' devan tout moun, li di: Fanm sa a pa di m' anyen ankò, paske lè m' marye avè l', lè nou vin ansanm, mwen te jwenn li pa t' tifi.
And seek occasions to put her away, laying to her charge a very ill name, and say: I took this woman to wife, and going in to her, I found her not a virgin:
15 Enben, lè sa a, papa ak manman jenn madanm lan va pran dra maryaj la ki gen prèv madanm lan te tifi, y'a pote l' nan tribinal bò pòtay lavil la, y'a moutre chèf fanmi lavil yo li.
Her father and mother shall take her, and shall bring with them the tokens of her virginity to the ancients of the city that are in the gate:
16 Epi, papa jenn ti madanm lan va di chèf fanmi yo: mwen te bay nonm sa a pitit fi mwen pou madanm. Koulye a, li pa renmen l' ankò,
And the father shall say: I gave my daughter unto this man to wife: and because he hateth her,
17 li pretann di madanm lan plen defo, l'ap di: O wi, mwen pa jwenn madanm lan tifi, men mwen pote ban nou prèv li te tifi. Epi l'a louvri dra a devan tout chèf fanmi lavil la.
He layeth to her charge a very ill name, so as to say: I found not thy daughter a virgin: and behold these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the ancients of the city:
18 Lè sa a chèf fanmi lavil yo va pran mari a, y'a bat li byen bat.
And the ancients of that city shall take that man, and beat him,
19 Y'a fè l' peye yon amann, y'a fè l' bay san pyès ajan, y'a renmèt bay papa jenn fanm lan, paske li te pale yon jenn tifi moun Izrayèl yo mal. Lèfini l'a blije rete ak fanm lan, li p'ap janm ka divòse avè l', jouk li menm li mouri.
Condemning him besides in a hundred sides of silver, which he shall give to the damsel’s father, because he hath defamed by a very ill name a virgin of Israel: and he shall have her to wife, and may not put her away all the days of his life.
20 Men, si sa mari a te di a se te vre, kifè yo pa t' kapab bay prèv madanm lan te tifi,
But if what he charged her with be true, and virginity be not found in the damsel:
21 y'a pran ti madanm lan, y'a mennen l' deyò devan lakay papa l', epi tout gason ki rete nan lavil la va kalonnen l' wòch jouk li mouri, paske li te fè yon wont nan peyi Izrayèl la, li te lage kò l' nan dezòd antan li te lakay papa l'. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
They shall cast her out of the doors of her father’s house, and the men of the city shall stone her to death, and she shall die: because she hath done a wicked thing in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee.
22 Si nou bare yon nonm ap kouche ak yon madan marye, yo tou de fèt pou mouri, ni nèg ki te kouche ak fanm lan ni fanm lan tou. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
If a man lie with another man’s wife, they shall both die, that is to say, the adulterer and the adulteress: and thou shalt take away the evil out of Israel.
23 Si yon jenn fi tifi fiyanse ak yon nonm epi yon lòt nèg kontre avè l' nan yon lavil, li kouche avè l' epi moun bare yo, n'a kalonnen yo wòch jouk yo mouri. Jenn fi a va mouri paske se nan mitan yon lavil li ye, li ta ka rele mande sekou.
If a man have espoused a damsel that is a virgin, and some one find her in the city, and lie with her,
24 Nèg la va mouri tou paske li te avili yon fi ki te fiyanse ak yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li. Wi, se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
Thou shalt bring them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned: the damsel, because she cried not out, being in the city: the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife. And thou shalt take away the evil from the midst of thee.
25 Men, si se andeyò lwen kay moun nèg la te kontre ak jenn fi fiyanse a, epi li kenbe l', li kouche avè l', se nèg la sèlman ki pou mouri.
But if a man find a damsel that is betrothed, in the field, and taking hold of her, lie with her, he alone shall die:
26 Yo pa gen dwa fè jenn fi a anyen, paske li pa fè anyen la a pou li ta merite lanmò. Se menm jan si se te yon nonm ki atake yon lòt epi li touye l'.
The damsel shall suffer nothing, neither is she guilty of death: for as a robber riseth against his brother, and taketh away his life, so also did the damsel suffer:
27 Nèg la te kontre avè l' andeyò lwen kay. Jenn fi a te ka rele, men pa t' gen pesonn pou pote l' sekou.
She was alone in the field: she cried, and there was no man to help her.
28 Si yon nonm kontre ak yon jenn fi ki tifi lakay papa l', ki poko fiyanse, epi li kenbe l', li fòse l' kouche avè l', si yo bare yo,
If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not espoused, and taking her, lie with her, and the matter come to judgment:
29 nèg ki te kouche avèk fi a va gen pou l' bay papa fi a senkant pyès ajan. Li va pran fi a pou madanm li, paske li te fòse l' kouche avè l'. Li p'ap janm ka divòse avè l' jouk li mouri.
He that lay with her shall give to the father of the maid fifty sides of silver, and shall have her to wife, because he hath humbled her: he may not put her away all the days of his life.
30 Yon nonm pa gen dwa kouche ak madanm papa l'. Li pa gen dwa avili papa l' konsa.
No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove his covering.
