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.
Si yon moun vòlò yon bèf osinon yon mouton, si li touye l' epi li vann li, li gen pou l' bay senk bèf pou bèf li pran an osinon kat mouton pou mouton li pran an.
2 If the thief is found breaking in, and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no guilt of bloodshed for him.
Si yo bare yon vòlè ap kase yon kay epi yo touye l', moun ki touye l' la pa koupab.
3 If the sun has risen on him, he is guilty of bloodshed. He shall make restitution. If he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
Men, si sa rive apre solèy fin leve, moun ki touye l' la koupab. Li gen pou l' peye pou li, wè pa wè. Si li pa gen anyen, y'a vann li pou yo ka peye pou sa l' te vòlò a.
4 If the stolen property is found in his hand alive, whether it is ox, donkey, or sheep, he shall pay double.
Men, si yo jwenn bèt li te vòlò a vivan nan men l' toujou, kit se bèf, kit se kabrit, kit se bourik, l'a renmèt de pou yonn.
5 “If a man causes a field or vineyard to be eaten by letting his animal loose, and it grazes in another man’s field, he shall make restitution from the best of his own field, and from the best of his own vineyard.
Si yon moun kite bèt li manje nan jaden yon lòt, osinon nan jaden rezen li, si yon moun kite bèt li lage pou yo fè kont dega nan jaden yon lòt moun, li gen pou l' dedonmaje lòt moun lan. L'a ba li pi bon bagay li gen nan jaden pa l' la osinon nan jaden rezen l' yo.
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.
Si yon dife pran yon kote, li tonbe nan zèb chèch epi li rive boule danre ki nan depo, osinon grenn ki fin keyi, ou ankò yon jaden tou plante, moun ki lakòz dife a va peye yon dedomajman.
7 “If a man delivers to his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it is stolen out of the man’s house, if the thief is found, he shall pay double.
Si yon moun pran lajan l' osinon yon bagay ki gen anpil valè, li bay yon lòt moun sere l' pou li, si yo rive vòlò bagay sa yo nan kay moun ki te sere yo a, si yo jwenn vòlè a, vòlè a va gen pou renmèt de fwa lavalè.
8 If the thief isn’t found, then the master of the house shall come near to God, to find out whether or not he has put his hand on his neighbour’s goods.
Men, si yo pa jwenn vòlè a, y'a mennen mèt kay kote bagay yo te sere a devan lòtèl Bondye a, pou yo wè si se pa li menm ki te pran bagay lòt moun lan.
9 For every matter of trespass, whether it is 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 neighbour.
Si yon moun pèdi yon bagay, kit se yon bèf, osinon yon bourik, ou ankò yon mouton, kit se yon rad ou nenpòt lòt bagay, si lè yo jwenn sak te pèdi a yon lòt moun pretann di se pou li li ye, y'a mennen yo tou de devan lòtèl Bondye a pou regle sa. Moun Bondye va kondannen an va gen pou l' bay lòt la de fwa lavalè pou dedomajman.
10 “If a man delivers to his neighbour a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any animal to keep, and it dies or is injured, or driven away, no man seeing it;
Si yon moun bay yon frè parèy li gade yon bourik, yon bèf, yon mouton, ou ankò nenpòt ki lòt bèt pou li, si bèt la mouri osinon si malè rive l' ou ankò si piyajè pran l' san pesonn pa wè sa,
11 the oath of the LORD shall be between them both, he has not put his hand on his neighbour’s goods; and its owner shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.
lè sa a, y'a mande ni mèt bèt la ni gadò a pou yo fè sèman devan lòtèl Bondye a. Moun ki t'ap gade bèt la va deklare se pa li menm ki te pran bèt lòt moun lan. Lè sa a, mèt bèt la va asepte pèt la. Gadò a p'ap gen ankenn dedomajman pou l' bay.
12 But if it is stolen from him, the one who stole shall make restitution to its owner.
Men si se vòlò yo te vòlò bèt la nan men l', l'a gen pou l' peye mèt la kichòy.
13 If it is torn in pieces, let him bring it for evidence. He shall not make good that which was torn.
Si se bèt nan bwa ki devore bèt la, l'a pote rès la pou mèt bèt la ka wè ak de je l' se pa manti l'ap ba li. Li p'ap gen anyen pou l' peye pou sa.
14 “If a man borrows anything of his neighbour’s, and it is injured, or dies, its owner not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.
Si yon moun prete yon bèt nan men yon frè parèy li, epi malè rive bèt la, osinon li mouri an absans mèt li, se pou l' peye mèt bèt la kichòy.
15 If its owner is with it, he shall not make it good. If it is a leased thing, it came for its lease.
Men, si mèt la te la lè malè a rive, moun lan pa gen anyen pou l' peye. Si se yon bèt li te lwe, se pri li te lwe l' la ase pou li bay.
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.
Si yon nonm pran tèt yon jenn fi ki poko fiyanse, epi li kouche avè l', li gen pou l' peye lajan yo konn bay pou yon maryaj, epi se pou l' marye ak jenn fi a.
17 If her father utterly refuses to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Men, si papa jenn fi a refize kite l' marye avè l', tout jan se pou msye peye lajan yo bay lè yo pral marye ak yon fi ki tifi.
18 “You shall not allow a sorceress to live.
Se pou nou touye tout fanm k'ap fè maji.
19 “Whoever has sex with an animal shall surely be put to death.
Se pou yo touye tout moun ki kwaze ak zannimo.
20 “He who sacrifices to any god, except to the LORD only, shall be utterly destroyed.
Si yon moun ofri bèt pou yo touye pou lòt bondye pase Seyè a, se pou yo disparèt li tankou bèt y'ap ofri bay Bondye.
21 “You shall not wrong an alien or oppress him, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt.
Piga nou maltrete moun lòt nasyon ki vin rete nan peyi nou. Piga nou peze yo non plis, paske nou menm, chonje nou te etranje tou nan peyi Lejip.
22 “You shall not take advantage of any widow or fatherless child.
Piga nou maltrete ni vèv yo, ni timoun san papa yo.
23 If you take advantage of them at all, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry;
Si nou malmennen yo, m'ap reponn yo lè y'a rele mande m' sekou.
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.
m'a fache, m'a fè nou mouri nan lagè. Konsa, madanm nou yo ap vin vèv tou, pitit nou yo ap rete san papa tou.
25 “If you lend money to any of my people with you who is poor, you shall not be to him as a creditor. You shall not charge him interest.
Si nou prete yonn nan frè parèy nou yo lajan, yonn nan pòv ki nan mitan nou yo, piga nou fè tankou moun k'ap bay ponya pou nou egzije l' peye enterè.
26 If you take your neighbour’s garment as collateral, you shall restore it to him before the sun goes down,
Si yon nonm plane levit li lakay ou pou ou prete l' yon ti kòb, se pou ou renmèt li rad li anvan solèy kouche.
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.
Paske, se sèl rad li gen pou l' mete sou li pou fredi pa bat li. Kisa pou l' mete sou li pou l' kouvri aswè? Si li rele mande m' sekou, m'a reponn li paske mwen gen bon kè.
28 “You shall not blaspheme God, nor curse a ruler of your people.
Piga nou pale Bondye mal. Piga nou bay chèf pèp la madichon.
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.
Pa pran reta pou n' ofri m' sa pou n' ofri m' nan rekòt danre nou yo ak nan diven nou. n'a ban mwen premye pitit gason nou yo.
30 You shall do likewise with your cattle and with your sheep. It shall be with its mother seven days, then on the eighth day you shall give it to me.
N'a ban mwen tou premye pitit bèf nou yo ak premye pitit mouton nou yo. Ti bèt la va pase sèt jou avèk manman l'. Sou wityèm jou a n'a ofri l' ban mwen.
31 “You shall be holy men to me, therefore you shall not eat any meat that is torn by animals in the field. You shall cast it to the dogs.
Se pou nou mache tankou moun k'ap viv apa pou mwen. Pa manje vyann bèt nou jwenn lòt bèt nan bwa devore. Vyann konsa se chen pou nou jete l' bay.
