< 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 is a dispute between men and they go to court, and the judges judge them, then they will acquit the righteous and condemn 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.
If the guilty man deserves to be beaten, then the judge will make him lie down and be beaten in his presence with the ordered number of blows, as was his crime.
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.
The judge may give him forty blows, but he may not exceed that number; for if he should exceed that number and beat him with many more blows, then your fellow Israelite would be humiliated before your eyes.
4 Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ di màlúù ti ń tẹ ọkà lẹ́nu.
You must not muzzle the ox when he treads out the grain.
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 brothers live together and one of them dies, not having any son, then the wife of the dead man must not be married off to someone else outside the family. Instead, her husband's brother must sleep with her and take her to himself as a wife, and do the duty of a husband's brother to 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.
This is so that the firstborn that she bears will succeed in the name of that man's dead brother, so that his name will not perish from 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.”
But if the man does not wish to take his brother's wife for himself, then his brother's wife must go up to the gate to the elders and say, 'My husband's brother refuses to raise up for his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother to 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 must call him and speak to him. But suppose that he insists and says, 'I do not wish 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 his brother's wife must come up to him in the presence of the elders, take off his sandal from his foot, and spit in his face. She must answer him and say, 'This is what is done to the man who does 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.”
His name will be called in Israel, 'The house of him whose sandal has been taken off.'
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.
If men fight with each other, and the wife of one comes to rescue her husband out of the hand of him who struck him, and if she stretches out her hand and takes him by the private parts,
12 Ìwọ yóò gé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ náà kúrò. Má ṣe ṣàánú fún un.
then you must cut off her hand; your eye must have no pity.
13 Má ṣe ní oríṣìí ìtẹ̀wọ̀n méjì tó yàtọ̀ sí ara wọn nínú àpò rẹ, ọ̀kan wúwo àti ọ̀kan fífúyẹ́.
You must not have in your bag different weights, a large and a small.
14 Má ṣe ní oríṣìí ìwọ̀n méjì tí ó yàtọ̀ sí ara wọn ní ilé è rẹ: ọ̀kan fífẹ̀, ọ̀kan kékeré.
You must not have in your house different measures, a large 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 you must have; a perfect and just measure you must have, so that your days may be long in the land that Yahweh your God is giving you.
16 Nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run kórìíra ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí, àní ẹnikẹ́ni tí ń ṣe àìṣòdodo.
For all who do such things, all that act unrighteously, are an abomination to Yahweh your God.
17 Rántí ohun tí àwọn ará Amaleki ṣe sí i yín ní ọ̀nà nígbà tí ẹ̀ ń jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá.
Call to mind what Amalek did to you on the road as you came 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 you on the road and attacked those of you at the rear, all who were feeble in your rear, when you were faint and weary; he did not honor 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, when Yahweh your God has given you rest from all your enemies round about, in the land that Yahweh your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance, you must not forget that you must blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
