< Exodus 22 >

1 If a man steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it, he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
“Omuntu bw’anabbanga ente ya munne, oba endiga, n’agitta oba n’agitunda; anazzangawo ente ttaano olw’emu gy’abbye, n’endiga nnya olw’endiga emu.
2 If a thief be found breaking in, and be smitten so that he dieth, there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him.
“Omubbi bw’anaakwatibwanga ng’amenya ennyumba, n’akubibwa emiggo n’afa; amukubye taabengako musango olw’okuyiwa omusaayi gw’omubbi oyo;
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be bloodguiltiness for him — he shall make restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
naye singa ebyo bigwawo ng’enjuba emaze okuvaayo, anaabangako omusango olw’okuyiwa omusaayi ogwo. Omubbi anaateekwanga okuliwa; naye bw’abanga talina kantu, anaatundibwanga alyoke asasulire bye yabba.
4 If the theft be found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep, he shall pay double.
“Omubbi singa akwatibwa lubona nga n’ensolo gy’abbye agirina nnamu, oba nte, oba ndogoyi oba ndiga, anazzangawo bbiri bbiri.
5 If a man cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall let his beast loose, and it feed in another man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
“Omuntu bw’anaabanga alunda ebisolo bye mu ddundiro lye oba mu nnimiro ye ey’emizabbibu, ensolo ze n’azireka ne zigenda ziriira mu nnimiro y’omuntu omulala; anaasasulanga ku bibala ebisinga obulungi n’ezabbibu ebiva omumwe.
6 If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the shocks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field are consumed; he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
“Omuliro bwe gunaalandanga ne guyita mu bisaka ne gukwata ennimiro y’omuntu, ne gwokya ebinywa by’eŋŋaano, oba eŋŋaano ekyakula, oba ne guzikiriza ennimiro ye yonna; eyakumye omuliro ogwo anaasasuliranga byonna ebyonoonese.
7 If a man deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house; if the thief be found, he shall pay double.
“Omuntu bw’anaateresanga munne ensimbi oba ebintu bye ebirala, ne bamala babibbira mu nnyumba ye; omubbi bw’anaakwatibwanga anaaliwanga emirundi ebiri.
8 If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall come near unto God, to see whether he have not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
Naye omubbi bw’ataakwatibwenga, nannyini nnyumba ateekwa agende eri abalamuzi, basalewo obanga ebintu bya munne ye yabitutte.
9 For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, whereof one saith: 'This is it,' the cause of both parties shall come before God; he whom God shall condemn shall pay double unto his neighbour.
Mu buli misango gyonna egy’okubeera n’ebintu mu ngeri emenya amateeka, ng’okubeera n’ente, oba endogoyi, oba endiga, oba ekyambalo, oba ekintu ekirala kyonna ekinaabanga kibuze, omuntu n’amala akyogerako nti, ‘Kino kyange,’ omuntu akirina n’oyo akiyita ekikye banaatwalanga ensonga zaabwe eri abalamuzi. Oyo abalamuzi gwe banaasaliranga nti gumusinze, anaddizangawo munne emirundi ebiri.
10 If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep, and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it;
“Omuntu bw’anaateresanga munne endogoyi, oba ente, oba endiga, oba ensolo endala yonna; n’emala efa, oba n’erumizibwa, oba n’etwalibwa nga tekitegeerekese agitutte,
11 the oath of the LORD shall be between them both, to see whether he have not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner thereof shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.
ensonga zaabwe zinaagonjoolwanga nga eyatereka alayidde mu maaso ga Mukama nti ensolo eyo si ye yagibba. Nannyini nsolo ateekwanga okukkiriza ekirayiro ekyo, era taasasulwenga kintu kyonna.
12 But if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.
Naye bw’eneemubbibwangako, anaagiriwanga.
13 If it be torn in pieces, let him bring it for witness; he shall not make good that which was torn.
Bw’eneebanga erumbiddwa ensolo enkambwe n’etaagulwataagulwa, anaaleetanga ebitundutundu byayo ebisigaddewo ng’obujulizi; taaliwenga nsolo etaaguddwataaguddwa.
14 And if a man borrow aught of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.
“Omuntu bw’aneeyazikanga ensolo ku muliraanwa we, n’erumizibwa, oba n’emufaako nga nnyini yo taliiwo, anaateekwanga okugisasulira.
15 If the owner thereof be with it, he shall not make it good; if it be a hireling, he loseth his hire.
Naye nannyini yo bw’anaabangawo, taaliyirwenga. Ensolo ng’ebadde epangisibbwa bupangisibwa, omuwendo ogugipangisizza gunaamalanga mu kugisasulira.
16 And if a man entice a virgin that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.
“Omusajja bw’anaasendasendanga omuwala omuto akyali embeerera, ne yeebaka naye, atwalengayo ebintu ebyobuko, amuwase.
17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Naye singa kitaawe w’omuwala agaanira ddala okumumuwa, era asasulangayo omuwendo gw’ensimbi ogwenkanankana n’eby’obuko ebiweebwayo ku mbeerera.
18 Thou shalt not suffer a sorceress to live.
“Omukazi omulogo omuttanga bussi.
19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
“Omuntu akola eby’ensonyi n’ensolo ateekwanga kuttibwa.
20 He that sacrificeth unto the gods, save unto the LORD only, shall be utterly destroyed.
“Omuntu atwalanga ssaddaaka eri katonda omulala, atali nze Mukama, azikirizibwenga.
21 And a stranger shalt thou not wrong, neither shalt thou oppress him; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
“Bannamawanga temubayisanga bubi, so temubanyigirizanga, kubanga nammwe mwali bannaggwanga mu nsi y’e Misiri.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
“Nnamwandu ne mulekwa temubajooganga.
23 If thou afflict them in any wise — for if they cry at all unto Me, I will surely hear their cry —
Bwe munaabajooganga ne bankaabira, nnaabawulirizanga.
24 My wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
Obusungu bwange ne bubuubuuka, mmwe ne mbatta n’ekitala. Bakyala bammwe ne bafuuka bannamwandu n’abaana bammwe bamulekwa.
25 If thou lend money to any of My people, even to the poor with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a creditor; neither shall ye lay upon him interest.
“Bw’owolanga ensimbi omu ku bantu bange abali mu mmwe, ng’ali mu kwetaaga, teweeyisanga ng’abawozi b’ensimbi abalala; tomusasuzanga magoba.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbour's garment to pledge, thou shalt restore it unto him by that the sun goeth down;
Bw’otwalanga ekyambalo ky’omuntu ng’akakalu, kimuddize ng’enjuba egenda okugwa;
27 for that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin; wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto Me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
kubanga ekyambalo kye ekyo kye ky’okwebikka kye kyokka ky’alina. Kale bw’otokimuddiza olwo asule mu ki? Bw’anankaabiriranga nzijanga kumuwuliriza, kubanga ndi wa kisa.
28 Thou shalt not revile God, nor curse a ruler of thy people.
“Tovumanga Katonda, wadde okwogera obubi ku bafuzi bammwe.
29 Thou shalt not delay to offer of the fulness of thy harvest, and of the outflow of thy presses. The first-born of thy sons shalt thou give unto Me.
“Tolwangawo kuwaayo ku bibala ebibereberye nga byengedde. “Mutabani wo omubereberye onoomumpanga.
30 Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep; seven days it shall be with its dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it Me.
Ente zo n’endiga zo nazo onookolanga bw’otyo. Onoozirekeranga bannyina baazo okumala ennaku musanvu; onoozimpanga ku lunaku olw’omunaana.
31 And ye shall be holy men unto Me; therefore ye shall not eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
“Mujjanga kuba bantu bange batukuvu. Noolwekyo temuulyenga nnyama ya nsolo etaaguddwataaguddwa ebisolo eby’omu nsiko. Munaagirekeranga mbwa.
