Deuteronomy 21
1 If one be found slain in the land which Yhwh thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath slain him:
Ie zoeñe mibabòke an-kivoke ey, an-tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo, ho rambese’o t’indaty, ie tsy fohiñe te ia ty nanjevoñ’ aze,
2 Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain:
le hiavotse mb’eo o androanavi’oo naho o mpizaka’oo hanjehe pak’amo rova mañohoke i nañohofan-dozaio.
3 And it shall be, that the city which is next unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
Ie oniñe ty rova marine’ i vinonoy le o androanavi’ i rovaio ro handrambe kiloa mbe tsy nampitoloñeñe, mbe tsy nitari-joka,
4 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a rough valley, which is neither eared nor sown, and shall strike off the heifer’s neck there in the valley:
le hendese’ o androanavi’ i rovaio hizotso mb’ am-bavatane aman-torahañe tsy mai-drano mb’ an-toetse tsy nirokafeñe tsy nitongiseñe mb’eo i kiloay vaho ho folahe’ iereo ty loha’ i kiloay am-bavatane eo;
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them Yhwh thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in the name of Yhwh; and by their word shall every controversy and every stroke be tried:
le hitotoke mb’eo amy zao o mpisoroñe ana’ i Levio, amy t’ie jinobo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hitoroñe aze naho hitata ami’ ty tahina’ Iehovà, vaho mahavoa zaka amy ze ali-vava naho lafa ty saontsi’ iareo;
6 And all the elders of that city, that are next unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded in the valley:
le hanasa fitàñe ambone’ i kiloa finola-doha am-bavataney i androanavi’ i rova marine i vinonoy rey;
7 And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
le ty hoe ty ho lañona’ iareo: Tsy nampiorike ty lio tiañe o fità’aio vaho tsy niisam-pihaino’ay.
8 Be merciful, O Yhwh, unto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay not innocent blood unto thy people of Israel’s charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
Apoho ondati’o Israele nijebañe’oo ry Iehovà vaho ko apo’o añivo’ondati’o Israeleo ty hakeon-dio-màliñe. Le ho hahàñe am’ iereo i lioy.
9 So shalt thou put away the guilt of innocent blood from among you, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of Yhwh.
Izay ty hamongora’o ama’o ty lio-màliñe, ihe mitolon-kavantañañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà.
10 When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies, And Yhwh thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou hast taken them captive,
Ie mionjoñe hialy amo rafelahi’oo mb’eo, naho atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o am-pità’o ao iereo vaho asese’o mb’eo o tsinepakeo,
11 And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife;
le zoe’o amo mirohio ty ampela maintelè, naho harinea’o, vaho te handrambe aze ho vali’o;
12 Then thou shalt bring her home to thine house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
le hasese’o mb’ añ’ akiba’o mb’eo naho ho hitsife’e ty volo’e vaho ho tomore’e o hoho’eo,
13 And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
le hafaha’e ama’e i fisikim-pandrohizañey naho hitobok’ añ’anjomba’o ao re handala an-drae’e naho an-drene’e volañe raike do’e, modo izay le mete himoak’ ama’e rehe hanambaly aze vaho ie ty ho tañamjomba’o.
14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not make merchandise of her, because thou hast humbled her.
Ie amy zay he malaiñ’ aze rehe, apoho handeha mb’an-tsatrie’e mb’eo; f’ie tsy haleta’o drala, vaho tsy ampisoañeñe fa narè’o.
15 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated:
Ie mampirafe roe t’indaty, le tea’e ty raike naho heje’e ty raike, vaho songa mampipok’ anake ho aze i kokoa’ey naho i heje’ey; aa naho amy heje’ey i tañoloñoloña’ey,
16 Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the firstborn:
le ie amy andro ampandova’e o ana’eo o fanaña’eoy le tsy mete hatao’e valohan’ ana’e ty ana-dahi’ i vali-iso’ey hasolo i ana-dahim-baly heje’ey, ie toe tañoloñoloña’e.
17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.
Tsy mahai-tsy iantofe’e ho tañoloñoloña’e ty ana-dahi’ i heje’ey, am-panolorañe ama’e ty anjara roe amy ze hene fanaña’e; amy te ie ty valohan-tolin-kaozara’e, vaho aze ty zon-tañoloñoloñañe.
18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
Naho eo ty manañ’ana-dahy miola, naho manjehatse tsy mañaoñe ty fiarañanañan-drae’e ndra ty fiarañanañan-drene’e, mbore tsy haoñe’e ty fandilova’ iareo aze,
19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
le ho rambese’ ty rae naho i rene’e, naho hasese mb’amo roandria’ i rovaio mb’andalambei’ i tanà’ey mb’eo;
20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
le hanao ty hoe amo roandria’ i rovaio: Manjehatse naho miola ty ana-dahi’ay toy, tsy mañaoñe anay fa màhake naho jike.
21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
Le ho retsahe’ o hene lahilahi’ i rova’eio vato hañohofan-doza ama’e. Izay ty hamongora’o ty hatserehañe ama’o; le ho janjiñe’ Israele iaby vaho ho hembañe.
22 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:
Naho eo t’indaty voa zaka ami’ty hakeo mahafate vaho vonoeñe, aa ie aradorado’o an-katae,
23 His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; ( for he that is hanged is accursed of God; ) that thy land be not defiled, which Yhwh thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
asoao tsy hapok’ amy hataey ampara’ te porea’ ty maraindray i fañova’ey; tsy mete tsy haleve’o amy àndroy avao fa onjitse aman’ Añahare ze ampiradoradoeñe an-katae, tsy handeora’o ty tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo ho lova.
