< Exodus 22 >

1 "If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and kills it, or sells 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 the thief is found breaking in, and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no guilt of bloodshed 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 has risen on him, there shall be guilt of bloodshed for him; he shall make restitution. If he has 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 stolen property is found in his hand alive, whether it is ox, donkey, 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 causes a field or vineyard to be eaten, and lets his animal loose, and it grazes in another man's field, he shall make restitution from his own field according to his produce; and if he shall have grazed over the whole field, he shall make restitution from the best of his own field, and from the best of his own vineyard.
“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 breaks out, and catches in thorns so that the shocks of grain, or the standing grain, or the field are consumed; he who 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 delivers to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it is stolen out of the man's house; if the thief is 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 isn't found, then the master of the house shall come near to God, to find out if he hasn't put his hand to his neighbor'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 donkey, for sheep, for clothing, or for any kind of lost thing, about which one says, 'This is mine,' the cause of both parties shall come before God. He whom God condemns shall pay double to his neighbor.
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 delivers to his neighbor a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any animal to keep, and it dies or is injured, 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 God shall be between them both, whether he hasn't put his hand to his neighbor's goods; and its owner 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 is stolen from him, he shall make restitution to its owner.
Naye bw’eneemubbibwangako, anaagiriwanga.
13 If it is torn in pieces, let him bring it for evidence. 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 "If a man borrows anything of his neighbor's, and it is injured, or dies, its owner 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 its owner is with it, he shall not make it good. If it is a leased thing, it came for its lease.
Naye nannyini yo bw’anaabangawo, taaliyirwenga. Ensolo ng’ebadde epangisibbwa bupangisibwa, omuwendo ogugipangisizza gunaamalanga mu kugisasulira.
16 "If a man entices a virgin who isn't pledged to be married, and lies 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 refuses to give her to 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 "You shall not allow a sorceress to live.
“Omukazi omulogo omuttanga bussi.
19 "Whoever has sex with an animal shall surely be put to death.
“Omuntu akola eby’ensonyi n’ensolo ateekwanga kuttibwa.
20 "He who sacrifices to another god, except to the LORD only, shall be utterly destroyed.
“Omuntu atwalanga ssaddaaka eri katonda omulala, atali nze Mukama, azikirizibwenga.
21 "You shall not wrong a foreigner, neither shall you oppress him, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
“Bannamawanga temubayisanga bubi, so temubanyigirizanga, kubanga nammwe mwali bannaggwanga mu nsi y’e Misiri.
22 "You shall not take advantage of any widow or fatherless child.
“Nnamwandu ne mulekwa temubajooganga.
23 If you take advantage of them at all, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry;
Bwe munaabajooganga ne bankaabira, nnaabawulirizanga.
24 and my wrath will grow 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 you lend money to any of my people with you who is poor, you shall not be to him as a creditor; neither shall you charge 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 you take your neighbor's garment as collateral, you shall restore it to him before the sun goes 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. What would he sleep in? It will happen, when he cries to 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 "You shall not blaspheme God, nor curse a ruler of your people.
“Tovumanga Katonda, wadde okwogera obubi ku bafuzi bammwe.
29 "You shall not delay to offer from your harvest and from the outflow of your presses. "You shall give the firstborn of your sons to me.
“Tolwangawo kuwaayo ku bibala ebibereberye nga byengedde. “Mutabani wo omubereberye onoomumpanga.
30 You shall do likewise with your cattle and with your sheep. Seven days it shall be with its mother, then on the eighth day you shall give it to me.
Ente zo n’endiga zo nazo onookolanga bw’otyo. Onoozirekeranga bannyina baazo okumala ennaku musanvu; onoozimpanga ku lunaku olw’omunaana.
31 "You shall be holy men to me, therefore you shall not eat any flesh that is torn by animals in the field. You shall cast it to the dogs.
“Mujjanga kuba bantu bange batukuvu. Noolwekyo temuulyenga nnyama ya nsolo etaaguddwataaguddwa ebisolo eby’omu nsiko. Munaagirekeranga mbwa.
