1 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ehi, maọbụ atụrụ nwanna gị ka ọ na-akpafu, emela dịka a ga-asị na ị hụghị ya, jide ya, kpụlaara ya onye nwe ya.

You shall not see your brother’s ox or his sheep go astray, and hide yourself from them: you shall in any case bring them again to your brother.

2 Ọ bụrụ na ị maghị onye nwe ya, maọbụ na nwanna gị ebighị nso, were ya laa nʼụlọ gị, hapụ ya nʼebe ahụ tutu onye nwe ya achọwa ya, mgbe ahụ ka ị ga-ewere ya nyeghachi ya.

And if your brother be not near to you, or if you know him not, then you shall bring it to your own house, and it shall be with you until your brother seek after it, and you shall restore it to him again.

3 Otu a kwa ka ị ga-eme ma ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu nwanna gị, maọbụ uwe, maọbụ ihe ọbụla ị ga-atụtụta. Were ya debere onye nwe ya.

In like manner shall you do with his ass; and so shall you do with his raiment; and with all lost thing of your brother’s, which he has lost, and you have found, shall you do likewise: you may not hide yourself.

4 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ ịnyịnya ibu, maọbụ ehi nwanna gị ka ha dara nʼụzọ, elela anya nʼebe ọzọ, gaa nyere ya aka bulie ya.

You shall not see your brother’s ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide yourself from them: you shall surely help him to lift them up again.

5 Nwanyị ekwesighị iyi uwe ndị ikom, nwoke agaghị eyikwa uwe ndị inyom. Nʼihi na ihe arụ ka ọ bụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.

The woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination to the LORD your God.

6 Ọ bụrụ na ị hụ akwụ nnụnụ tọgbọ nʼala, maọbụ nke dị nʼelu osisi, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ bụ nnụnụ nke nọ nʼelu ụmụ ya, maọbụ nʼelu akwa ya, ewerela nne na ụmụ nnụnụ ya.

If a bird’s nest chance to be before you in the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the dam sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the dam with the young:

7 Hapụ nne nnụnụ ka ọ laa, ma were naanị ụmụ ya. Ihe ga-agakwara gị nke ọma nʼihi ya, ị ga-enwekwa ndụ ogologo.

But you shall in any wise let the dam go, and take the young to you; that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days.

8 Mgbe i wuru ụlọ, wuokwa ihe mgbochi gburugburu elu ya, nke ga-eme ka onye ọbụla ghara isi nʼelu ya dapụ, si otu a wetara ụlọ na onye nwe ya ikpe ọmụma nke iwufu ọbara.

When you build a new house, then you shall make a battlement for your roof, that you bring not blood on your house, if any man fall from there.

9 Akụla ụdị mkpụrụ abụọ nʼubi vaịnị gị. Ọ bụrụ na i mee otu a, ihe ọkụkụ ndị a, na mkpụrụ ha mịrị ga-abụ ihe rụrụ arụ.

You shall not sow your vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of your seed which you have sown, and the fruit of your vineyard, be defiled.

10 Ejikọla ehi na ịnyịnya ibu maka ịdọ ihe e ji akọ ala ubi.

You shall not plow with an ox and an ass together.

11 Eyila uwe e ji ụzọ ihe abụọ kpaa, dịka uwe ajị anụ na ogho ọcha kpaa.

You shall not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woolen and linen together.

12 Ị ga-akpanyere onwe gị ihe ogho akpara akpa, nʼakụkụ anọ nke uwe mgbokwasị gị.

You shall make you fringes on the four quarters of your clothing, with which you cover yourself.

13 Ọ bụrụ na nwoke alụọ nwaagbọghọ, mesie mgbe o dinakwuru ya kpebie nʼobi ya na ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya ọzọ,

If any man take a wife, and go in to her, and hate her,

14 ọ bụrụ na nwoke a ekwutọọ nwaagbọghọ ahụ, mebie aha ya kwuo na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amatalarị nwoke tupu ha abụọ alụọ,

And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil name on her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid:

15 nne nwaagbọghọ ahụ, na nna ya, ga-ewere ihe ga-egosi na nwa ha amabeghị nwoke gaa nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama.

Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel’s virginity to the elders of the city in the gate:

16 Nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-agwa ndị okenye, “Enyere m nwoke a nwa m nwanyị dịka nwunye, ma ugbu a, ọ chọkwaghị ịlụ ya.

And the damsel’s father shall say to the elders, I gave my daughter to this man to wife, and he hates her;

17 Ugbu a, o boola ya ebubo ihere, sị, ‘Achọpụtaghị m ihe ọbụla nʼahụ nwa gị nwanyị a ihe na-egosi na ọ maghị nwoke.’ Ma nke a bụ ihe ngosi na ada anyị amaghị nwoke.” Mgbe ahụ ndị mụrụ ya ga-agbasapụ akwa ahụ nʼihu ndị okenye obodo ahụ.

And, see, he has given occasions of speech against her, saying, I found not your daughter a maid; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter’s virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.

18 Ndị okenye obodo ahụ ga-akpọrọ nwoke nyekwa ya ahụhụ.

And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;

19 Ha ga-emekwa ya ka ọ kwụọ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ narị shekel ọlaọcha, nʼihi na o boro nwaagbọghọ Izrel na-amaghị nwoke ebubo ụgha. Nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anọgide bụrụ nwunye nwoke ahụ. Nwoke ahụ agaghị achụpụkwa ya ụbọchị ndụ ya niile.

And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the damsel, because he has brought up an evil name on a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.

20 Ma ọ bụrụ na ebubo nwoke ahụ bụ eziokwu, na achọpụtaghị ihe gosiri na nwaagbọghọ ahụ amaghị nwoke.

But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:

21 A ga-eduru nwaagbọghọ ahụ pụta nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nna ya, nʼebe ahụ ka ndị ikom obodo ya ga-anọ were nkume tugbuo ya. Nʼihi na o mere ihe ihere jọgburu onwe ya nʼIzrel, site nʼibi ndụ akwụna mgbe ọ ka nọ nʼụlọ nne ya na nna ya. Ị ghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ ahụ site nʼetiti unu.

Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she has worked folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: so shall you put evil away from among you.

22 Ọ bụrụ na e jide nwoke ebe ya na nwunye onye ọzọ dina, ma nwoke ahụ dinara ya ma nwanyị ahụ o dinara aghaghị ịnwụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ị ga-ekpochapụ ihe ọjọọ a site nʼIzrel.

If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shall you put away evil from Israel.

23 Ma ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ na nwoke ọzọ edinakọọ nʼime obodo,

If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed to an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;

24 ya na nwoke ahụ ka a ga-eduru gaa nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo, were nkume tugbuo ha nʼebe ahụ, ka ha nwụọ, nwaagbọghọ ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o tighị mkpu, ma nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ nʼihi na o mebiela nwunye nwoke ibe ya na-achọ ịlụ. Unu aghaghị ikpochapụ ihe ọjọọ site nʼetiti unu.

Then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor’s wife: so you shall put away evil from among you.

25 Ma ọ bụrụ na nwoke ezute nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke a na-alụ alụ nʼọhịa, were ike mee ka ha abụọ dina, ọ bụ naanị nwoke ahụ ga-anwụ.

But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die.

26 Aka nwaagbọghọ ahụ dị ọcha, ọ dịghị mmehie o mere nke ikpe ọnwụ ji adịrị ya, nʼihi na ọnọdụ ya dị ka ọnọdụ mmadụ ahụ onye iro ya bịakwasịrị na mberede gbuo ya.

But to the damsel you shall do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man rises against his neighbor, and slays him, even so is this matter:

27 A pụrụ ị sị na nwaagbọghọ ahụ tiri mkpu ma ọ dịghị onye nọ ịnapụta ya.

For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.

28 Ọ bụrụ na nwoke ọbụla ejiri ike jide nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke, nke nwoke ọbụla na-ekwebeghị nkwa ịlụ, mee ka ha abụọ dinaa,

If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;

29 nwoke ahụ ga-akwụ nna nwaagbọghọ ahụ iri shekel ọlaọcha ise. Ọ ga-alụkwa nwaagbọghọ ahụ nʼihi na o mebiela ya. Ọ gakwaghị achụpụ ya ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.

Then the man that lay with her shall give to the damsel’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he has humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.

30 Nwoke ọbụla agaghị alụ nwunye nna ya, nʼihi na ọ bụ nwunye nna ya. Ime ihe dị otu a bụ imerụ ihe ndina nna ya.

A man shall not take his father’s wife, nor discover his father’s skirt.
