Deteronòm 22
1 Lè nou jwenn bèf osinon kabrit yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou ki kase kòd, pa fè tankou nou pa wè. Se pou nou pran l' mennen l' tounen ba li.
If you see your brother's ox or his sheep wandering, do not go by without helping, but take them back to your brother.
2 Men, si mèt bèt la rete twò lwen, osinon si nou pa konnen pou ki moun li ye, n'a pran l', n'a mennen l' lakay nou. N'a kenbe l' lakay nou jouk mèt li va vin chache l'. Lè sa a n'a renmèt li li.
If their owner is not near, or if you are not certain who he is, then take the beast to your house and keep it till its owner comes in search of it, and then you are to give it back to him.
3 N'a fè menm jan an tou pou bourik, rad osinon nenpòt bagay yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou ta rive pèdi epi se nou ki ta jwenn li. Pa fè tankou nou pa wè sa.
Do the same with his ass or his robe or anything which has gone from your brother's keeping and which you have come across: do not keep it to yourself.
4 Lè nou wè bourik osinon bèf yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou kouche nan chemen, pa fè tankou nou pa wè sa. Se pou nou ride l' fè l' kanpe ankò.
If you see your brother's ox or his ass falling down on the road, do not go by without giving him help in lifting it up again.
5 Fanm pa gen dwa mete rad gason sou yo. Gason pa gen dwa mete rad fanm sou yo. Seyè a, Bondye nou an, pa vle wè moun k'ap fè bagay konsa.
It is not right for a woman to be dressed in man's clothing, or for a man to put on a woman's robe: whoever does such things is disgusting to the Lord your God.
6 Si sou chemen nou, nou jwenn yon nich zwazo, swa sou yon pyebwa, swa atè avèk manman zwazo a kouche sou pitit li yo, osinon sou ze l'ap kouve, piga nou pran manman zwazo a sou nich la.
If by chance you see a place which a bird has made for itself in a tree or on the earth, with young ones or eggs, and the mother bird seated on the young ones or on the eggs, do not take the mother bird with the young:
7 N'a kite manman zwazo a vole ale, n'a pran ti zwazo yo sèlman. Se konsa Bondye va fè tout zafè nou mache byen, l'a fè nou viv lontan.
See that you let the mother bird go, but the young ones you may take; so it will be well for you and your life will be long.
8 Lè n'ap bati yon kay nèf, n'a mete balistrad pou moun pa sot tonbe sou teras twati a. Konsa yo p'ap ka rann nou reskonsab si yon moun ta rive tonbe epi li mouri lakay nou.
If you are building a house, make a railing for the roof, so that the blood of any man falling from it will not come on your house.
9 Pa janm plante ankenn lòt kalite grenn nan jaden rezen nou. Si nou fè sa, nou p'ap ka sèvi ni avèk rezen yo ni avèk rekòt lòt grenn nou te plante yo.
Do not have your vine-garden planted with two sorts of seed: or all of it may become a loss, the seed you have put in as well as the increase.
10 Piga nou mete bèf ak bourik ansanm pou rale chari.
Do not do your ploughing with an ox and an ass yoked together.
11 Piga nou janm mete sou nou rad ki fèt ak divès kalite lenn ak twal fin blan tise ansanm.
Do not have clothing made of two sorts of thread, wool and linen together.
12 N'a mete yon ponpon nan kat kwen rad nou mete sou nou.
On the four edges of your robe, with which your body is covered, put ornaments of twisted threads.
13 Sipoze yon nonm pran yon fanm pou madanm li, li kouche avè l', epi apre sa, li vin pa renmen l' ankò.
If any man takes a wife, and having had connection with her, has no delight in her,
14 Lè sa a, li ba l' tout kalite defo ki genyen, li avili l' devan tout moun, li di: Fanm sa a pa di m' anyen ankò, paske lè m' marye avè l', lè nou vin ansanm, mwen te jwenn li pa t' tifi.
And says evil things about her and gives her a bad name, saying, I took this woman, and when I had connection with her it was clear to me that she was not a virgin:
15 Enben, lè sa a, papa ak manman jenn madanm lan va pran dra maryaj la ki gen prèv madanm lan te tifi, y'a pote l' nan tribinal bò pòtay lavil la, y'a moutre chèf fanmi lavil yo li.
Then let the girl's father and mother put before the responsible men of the town, in the public place, signs that the girl was a virgin:
16 Epi, papa jenn ti madanm lan va di chèf fanmi yo: mwen te bay nonm sa a pitit fi mwen pou madanm. Koulye a, li pa renmen l' ankò,
And let the girl's father say to the responsible men, I gave my daughter to this man for his wife, but he has no love for her;
17 li pretann di madanm lan plen defo, l'ap di: O wi, mwen pa jwenn madanm lan tifi, men mwen pote ban nou prèv li te tifi. Epi l'a louvri dra a devan tout chèf fanmi lavil la.
And now he has put shame on her, saying that she is not a virgin; but here is the sign that she is a virgin. Then they are to put her clothing before the responsible men of the town.
18 Lè sa a chèf fanmi lavil yo va pran mari a, y'a bat li byen bat.
Then the responsible men of the town are to give the man his punishment;
19 Y'a fè l' peye yon amann, y'a fè l' bay san pyès ajan, y'a renmèt bay papa jenn fanm lan, paske li te pale yon jenn tifi moun Izrayèl yo mal. Lèfini l'a blije rete ak fanm lan, li p'ap janm ka divòse avè l', jouk li menm li mouri.
They will take from him a hundred shekels of silver, which are to be given to the father of the girl, because he has given an evil name to a virgin of Israel: she will go on being his wife, he may never put her away all his life.
20 Men, si sa mari a te di a se te vre, kifè yo pa t' kapab bay prèv madanm lan te tifi,
But if what he has said is true, and she is seen to be not a virgin,
21 y'a pran ti madanm lan, y'a mennen l' deyò devan lakay papa l', epi tout gason ki rete nan lavil la va kalonnen l' wòch jouk li mouri, paske li te fè yon wont nan peyi Izrayèl la, li te lage kò l' nan dezòd antan li te lakay papa l'. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
Then they are to make the girl come to the door of her father's house and she will be stoned to death by the men of the town, because she has done evil and put shame on Israel, by acting as a loose woman in her father's house: so you are to put away evil from among you.
22 Si nou bare yon nonm ap kouche ak yon madan marye, yo tou de fèt pou mouri, ni nèg ki te kouche ak fanm lan ni fanm lan tou. Se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
If a man is taken in the act of going in to a married woman, the two of them, the man as well as the woman, are to be put to death: so you are to put away the evil from Israel.
23 Si yon jenn fi tifi fiyanse ak yon nonm epi yon lòt nèg kontre avè l' nan yon lavil, li kouche avè l' epi moun bare yo, n'a kalonnen yo wòch jouk yo mouri. Jenn fi a va mouri paske se nan mitan yon lavil li ye, li ta ka rele mande sekou.
If a young virgin has given her word to be married to a man, and another man meeting her in the town, has connection with her;
24 Nèg la va mouri tou paske li te avili yon fi ki te fiyanse ak yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li. Wi, se konsa n'a wete bagay mal k'ap fèt nan mitan nou.
Then you are to take the two of them to the doorway of the town, and have them stoned to death; the young virgin, because she gave no cry for help, though it was in the town, and the man, because he has put shame on his neighbour's wife: so you are to put away evil from among you.
25 Men, si se andeyò lwen kay moun nèg la te kontre ak jenn fi fiyanse a, epi li kenbe l', li kouche avè l', se nèg la sèlman ki pou mouri.
But if the man, meeting such a virgin in the open country, takes her by force, then only the man is to be put to death;
26 Yo pa gen dwa fè jenn fi a anyen, paske li pa fè anyen la a pou li ta merite lanmò. Se menm jan si se te yon nonm ki atake yon lòt epi li touye l'.
Nothing is to be done to the virgin, because there is no cause of death in her: it is the same as if a man made an attack on his neighbour and put him to death:
27 Nèg la te kontre avè l' andeyò lwen kay. Jenn fi a te ka rele, men pa t' gen pesonn pou pote l' sekou.
For he came across her in the open country, and there was no one to come to the help of the virgin in answer to her cry.
28 Si yon nonm kontre ak yon jenn fi ki tifi lakay papa l', ki poko fiyanse, epi li kenbe l', li fòse l' kouche avè l', si yo bare yo,
If a man sees a young virgin, who has not given her word to be married to anyone, and he takes her by force and has connection with her, and discovery is made of it;
29 nèg ki te kouche avèk fi a va gen pou l' bay papa fi a senkant pyès ajan. Li va pran fi a pou madanm li, paske li te fòse l' kouche avè l'. Li p'ap janm ka divòse avè l' jouk li mouri.
Then the man will have to give the virgin's father fifty shekels of silver and make her his wife, because he has put shame on her; he may never put her away all his life.
30 Yon nonm pa gen dwa kouche ak madanm papa l'. Li pa gen dwa avili papa l' konsa.
A man may not take his father's wife or have sex relations with a woman who is his father's.
