< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 “If [two] Israelis have a dispute and they go to a court, the judge will [probably] decide/declare that one of them (is innocent/did not do any wrong) and the other one is guilty.
Dunu da sia: ga gegesea, ilia da amo gegesu fofada: musa: fofada: su sogebi amoga ahoasea amola fofada: su dunu da fofada: lalu, wadela: i hame hamosu dunu hahawane halegale masa: ne sia: sea be wadela: i hamosu dunu amo se imunusa: sia: sea,
2 If the judge says that the guilty person must be punished, he shall command him to lie [with his face] on the ground and be whipped. The number of times he is struck with a whip will depend on [what kind of] crime he committed.
fofada: sea, wadela: i hamosu dunu da fegasuga famusa: ilia da ilegesea, fofada: su dunu da amo dunu diasa: imusa: sia: sea, e da fegasu fasu idi ea wadela: i hou amo defele lamu.
3 It is permitted that he be struck as many as 40 times, but no more than that. If he is struck more than 40 times, he would be humiliated publicly.
Be fofada: su dunu da amo dunuma efegasuga fasu idi amo 40baligi hame imunu. E da fegasuga fasu 40baligi lasea, dilia fi dunu da dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.
4 When your ox is treading/walking on the grain [to separate the chaff from the grain], do not (muzzle it/put a covering on its mouth) [to prevent it from eating some of the grain].
Bulamagau da gagoma oso fadegama: ne, gagoma fai amoma osa: la ahoasea, amo e da gagoma mae moma: ne, ea lafi mae la: gilisima.
5 If two brothers live on the same property, and one of them who has no son dies, the man’s widow should not marry someone who is not a member of his family. The dead man’s brother must marry her and have sex [EUP] with her. It is his duty to do that.
Olalali aduna da soge afae amoga esalea, afae da dunu mano mae lalelegele bogosea, ea didalo da sosogo fi eno dunu amoga hame fima: mu. Be egoa ola o eya da amo didalo lale ea esoa: ea hou ema hamomu.
6 If she later gives birth to a son, that son is to be considered [MTY] the son of the man who died, in order that the dead man’s name will not disappear from Israel.
Amasea, ea magobo mano da egoa bogoi amo ea dio lale, ea dio da Isala: ili fi amoga hame fisimu.
7 “But if the dead man’s brother does not want to marry that woman, she must stand at the (gate/central meeting place) of the town and say to the [town] elders, ‘My husband’s brother will not do (his duty/what he is supposed to do). He refuses to [marry me in order that I may give birth to a son who will] prevent my dead husband’s name from disappearing in Israel.’
Be dunu da yolalali didalo amo lamu higasea, amo didalo da asigilai dunu moilai logo holeiga esala amoga asili amane sia: mu, ‘Nagoa yolaliya da yolalali amo ea dio Isala: ili fi amo ganodini dialumu higasa. E da nama bae sia: mu higasa.’
8 Then the elders must summon that man and talk to him. If he still refuses to marry that widow,
Amasea, moilai asigilai da amo dunu ilima misa: ne sia: sea, ema sia: mu. Be e da amo hou mae fisili, ‘Amo uda na da hame lamu,’ sia: sea,
9 she must go up to him while the elders are watching, and take off one of his sandals [to symbolize/show that he would not receive any of her property], and spit in his face, and say to him, ‘This is what happens to the man who refuses to do what is needed [to allow his dead brother to have a son] in order that our family name does not disappear.’
Yolalalia didalo da asigilai dunu ba: ma: ne, ea emo salasu afae fadegale, ea odagi amoga defo aduga: le, amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia da dunu da yolalali fi hame hamosa ilima agoane hamosa.’
10 After that happens, that man’s family will be known as ‘the family of the man whose sandal was pulled off’.
Amasea, amo dunu ea fi Isala: ili soge amo ganodini ilia da ‘Emo Salasu Fadegai Fi’ ilima sia: mu.
11 When [two] men are fighting with each other, and the one man’s wife comes near to help her husband by grabbing hold of the other man’s genitals,
Dunu aduna da gegesea amola dunu afae ea uda da egoa fidimusa: , eno dunu ea gulusu gaguba: sea,
12 do not act mercifully toward her; cut off her hand.
ema mae asigima. Ea lobo damuni fasima.
13 “[When you are buying or selling things], do not try to cheat people by having two kinds of weights, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something], and two kinds of measuring baskets, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something].
Dilia da dioi ilegei o hano defei ilegei hamosea, mae ogogoma.
15 Always use correct weights and correct measuring baskets, in order that Yahweh our God will allow you to live a long time in the land that he is giving to you.
Be moloidafa defei amola ilegei hamoma. Bai agoane hamosea, dilia da ode bagohame soge amo dilia Hina Gode da dilima iaha amo ganodini esalumu.
16 Yahweh hates all those who act dishonestly, [and he will punish them].
Dilia Hina Gode da nowa dunu da ogogosu o moloihame hou hamosea, bagadewane higasa.
17 Continue to remember what the Amalek people-group did to your ancestors when they were coming out of Egypt.
Musa: dilia da Idibidi soge yolesili, logoga ahoanoba, A:malege dunu da dilima wadela: le hamosu. Amo bu dawa: ma!
18 They attacked your ancestors as your ancestors were traveling, when they were weak and exhausted. Those people were not afraid of God at all, so they attacked your ancestors from the rear and killed all those who were unable to walk as fast as the others.
Dilia da da: i dioi amola bagade helei galea, ilia da dunu helebeba: le fa: no bobogei, amo hedofai. Ilia da Godema beda: su hou hame dawa: i.
19 Therefore, when Yahweh our God has given you the land [that he promised to give you], and when he has enabled you to rest from [fighting] all your enemies around you, kill all the Amalek people-group, with the result that no one will remember them any more. Do not forget [to do this]!”
Mae gogolema! Dilia Hina Gode da soge E da dili gesowale fima: ne iaha, amo ganodini dilima ha lai huluane hasali dagoiba: le, dilia helefisu ba: sea, amo A: malege dunu huluane fane legema. Amasea, fa: no dunu fi da ilia dio hamedafa dawa: mu.
