Exodus 22

1 If a man takes without right another man's ox or his sheep, and puts it to death or gets a price for it, he is to give five oxen for an ox, or four sheep for a sheep, in payment: the thief will have to make payment for what he has taken; if he has no money, he himself will have to be exchanged for money, so that payment may be made.

Raha misy olona mangalatra omby, na ondry, na osy, ka mamono azy, na mivarotra azy, dia hanonitra omby dimy ho solon’ ny omby iray izy ary ondry na osy efatra ho solon’ ny ondry na osy iray.

2 If a thief is taken in the act of forcing his way into a house, and his death is caused by a blow, the owner of the house is not responsible for his blood.

Raha azo manamitrano ny mpangalatra ka asiana ho faty, dia tsy hisy valin-drà amin’ izany;

3 But if it is after dawn, he will be responsible.

fa raha tratry ny masoandro miposaka kosa izy, dia hisy valin-drà ihany amin’ izany; hanonitra tokoa izy; ary raha tsy manana na inona na inona, dia hamidy izy noho ny halatra nataony.

4 If he still has what he had taken, whatever it is, ox or ass or sheep, he is to give twice its value.

Raha hita marina velona eo aminy ny halatra na omby, na boriky, na ondry, na osy, dia hanonitra roa heny izy.

5 If a man makes a fire in a field or a vine-garden, and lets the fire do damage to another man's field, he is to give of the best produce of his field or his vine-garden to make up for it.

Raha misy olona mampitondraka amin’ ny voly na tanim-boaloboka, fa alefany handeha ny bibiny, ka homana ny volin’ olona izany biby izany, dia amin’ ny tsara indrindra ao amin’ ny sahany, ary amin’ ny tsara indrindra ao amin’ ny tanim-boalobony, no hanonerany.

6 If there is a fire and the flames get to the thorns at the edge of the field, causing destruction of the cut grain or of the living grain, or of the field, he who made the fire will have to make up for the damage.

Raha misy afo mirehitra ka mahazo ny tsilo, ka may ny antontam-bary, na ny vary maniry, na ny saha, dia hanonitra tokoa izay nampirehitra ny afo.

7 If a man puts money or goods in the care of his neighbour to keep for him, and it is taken from the man's house, if they get the thief, he will have to make payment of twice the value.

Raha misy olona mampitahiry vola na fanaka ny namany, ka angalarin’ ny sasany ao amin’ ny tranon’ ilay olona izany, raha hita ny mpangalatra, dia hanonitra roa heny izy.

8 If they do not get the thief, let the master of the house come before the judges and take an oath that he has not put his hand on his neighbour's goods.

Fa raha tsy hita kosa ny mpangalatra, dia ho entina eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra ny tompon’ ny trano mba hizahana na naninjitra ny tànany ka naka ny fananan’ ny namany izy, na tsia.

9 In any question about an ox or an ass or a sheep or clothing, or about the loss of any property which anyone says is his, let the two sides put their cause before God; and he who is judged to be in the wrong is to make payment to his neighbour of twice the value.

Ny amin’ ny zavatra ifandirana rehetra, na omby, na boriky, na ondry, na osy, na fitafiana, na zavatra very, izay ataon’ olona ho azy, dia ho entina eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra ny tenin’ izy roa tonta, koa izay helohih’ Andriamanitra dia hanonitra roa heny ho an’ ny namany.

10 If a man puts an ass or an ox or a sheep or any beast into the keeping of his neighbour, and it comes to death or is damaged or is taken away, without any person seeing it:

Raha misy olona mampitahiry ny namany boriky, na omby, na ondry, na osy, na biby fiompy hafa, ka maty izany, na maratra, na roahina ka tsy misy mahita,

11 If he takes his oath before the Lord that he has not put his hand to his neighbour's goods, the owner is to take his word for it and he will not have to make payment for it.

dia fianianana amin’ i Jehovah no hitsarana azy roa tonta, hahafantarana na efa naninjitra ny tànany ka naka ny fananan’ ny namany ilay anankiray, na tsia; ary heken’ ny tompony izany, dia tsy hisy onitra.

12 But if it is taken from him by a thief, he is to make up for the loss of it to its owner.

Fa raha nangalarina tany aminy tokoa izany, dia hanonitra ho an’ ny tompon-javatra izy.

13 But if it has been damaged by a beast, and he is able to make this clear, he will not have to make payment for what was damaged.

Raha voaviraviram-biby izany, dia hitondra azy ho vavolombelona izy; tsy hanonitra izay voaviravira izy.

14 If a man gets from his neighbour the use of one of his beasts, and it is damaged or put to death when the owner is not with it, he will certainly have to make payment for the loss.

Ary raha misy olona mindran-javatra amin’ ny namany, ka simba na maty izany, nefa tsy mba teo aminy ny tompon-javatra, dia hanonitra tokoa izy.

15 If the owner is with it, he will not have to make payment: if he gave money for the use of it, the loss is covered by the payment.

Fa raha teo aminy ihany ny tompon-javatra, dia tsy hanonitra izy; ary raha zavatra ahofa kosa, dia vitan’ ny hofany izany.

16 If a man takes a virgin, who has not given her word to another man, and has connection with her, he will have to give a bride-price for her to be his wife.

Ary raha misy olona mitaona zazavavy, izay tsy voafofo, ka mandry aminy, dia hanome harena azy izy mba ho vadiny.

17 If her father will not give her to him on any account, he will have to give the regular payment for virgins.

Fa raha mandà tokoa ny rainy ka tsy manome azy ho vadiny, dia handoa vola ralehilahy araka ny harena fanome zazavavy hampakarina.

18 Any woman using unnatural powers or secret arts is to be put to death.

Aza velomina ny vehivavy manana ody.

19 Any man who has sex connection with a beast is to be put to death.

Izay rehetra mandry amin’ ny biby dia hatao maty tokoa.

20 Complete destruction will come on any man who makes offerings to any other god but the Lord.

Izay mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra amin’ ny andriamanitra hafa, afa-tsy amin’ i Jehovah ihany, dia ho voaozona.

21 Do no wrong to a man from a strange country, and do not be hard on him; for you yourselves were living in a strange country, in the land of Egypt.

Ary aza manao izay sarotra amin’ ny vahiny, na mampahory azy; fa ela mba vahiny tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ihany ianareo.

22 Do no wrong to a widow, or to a child whose father is dead.

Aza mampahory ny mpitondratena sy ny kamboty akory ianareo.

23 If you are cruel to them in any way, and their cry comes up to me, I will certainly give ear;

Fa raha mampahory azy na amin’ inona na amin’ inona ianao, ka mitaraina amiko izy, dia hihaino ny fitarainany tokoa Aho,

24 And in the heat of my wrath I will put you to death with the sword, so that your wives will be widows and your children without fathers.

ka hirehitra ny fahatezerako, ary hamono anareo amin’ ny sabatra Aho; dia mba ho mpitondratena ny vadinareo, ary ho kamboty kosa ny zanakareo.

25 If you let any of the poor among my people have the use of your money, do not be a hard creditor to him, and do not take interest.

Raha mampisambo-bola ny oloko izay malahelo eo aminao ianao, dia tsy ho toy ny mpampanana vola aminy; fa tsy hampandoa zana-bola azy ianao.

26 If ever you take your neighbour's clothing in exchange for the use of your money, let him have it back before the sun goes down:

Raha maka ny lamban’ ny namanao ho tsatòka ianao, dia hampodinao aminy izany, raha mbola tsy milentika ny masoandro.

27 For it is the only thing he has for covering his skin; what is he to go to sleep in? and when his cry comes up to me, I will give ear, for my mercy is great.

Fa izany ihany no firakofany sady fitafiany amin’ ny hodiny, ka inona no ho entiny mandry? ary raha mitaraina amiko izy, dia hohenoiko, fa mamindra fo Aho.

28 You may not say evil of the judges, or put a curse on the ruler of your people.

Aza miteny ratsy an’ Andriamanitra ianao, na manozona ny mpanapaka ny firenenao.

29 Do not keep back your offerings from the wealth of your grain and your vines. The first of your sons you are to give to me.

Aza atao ela vao manatitra ny santatry ny vokatrao sy ny fisotronao; ny matoa amin’ ny zanakao-lahy dia omeo Ahy.

30 In the same way with your oxen and your sheep: for seven days let the young one be with its mother; on the eighth day give it to me.

Izao no hataonao amin’ ny ombinao sy ny ondry aman’ osinao; hafitoana no hitoerany ao amin’ ny reniny; ary amin’ ny andro fahavalo no hanateranao azy ho Ahy.

31 You are to be holy men to me: the flesh of no animal whose death has been caused by the beasts of the field may be used for your food; it is to be given to the dogs.

Ary ho olona masìna ho Ahy ianareo, koa izay hena voaviraviram-biby any an-tsaha dia tsy hohaninareo; fa harianareo ho an’ ny amboa izany.
