Deotoronomia 22
1 Raha hitanao mania ny omby na ny ondrin’ ny rahalahinao, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany, fa avereno any amin’ ny rahalahinao mihitsy izany.
“If you see your brother’s ox or sheep wander astray, you shall not pass by. Instead, you shall lead them back to your brother.
2 Ary raha tsy akaiky anao, na tsy fantatrao, ny rahalahinao, dia ento mody any aminao ilay nania, ary aoka hitoetra aminao mandra-pitadin’ ny rahalahinao azy, dia haverinao any aminy.
But if your brother is not near, or you do not know him, you shall lead them to your house, and they shall be with you until your brother seeks them and receives them.
3 Ary toy izany koa no hataonao amin’ ny borikiny, na ny fitafiany, na ny zavatry ny rahalahinao, na inona na inona izay very ka hitanao; fa aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany.
You shall act in a similar manner with his donkey, and his clothing, and all the belongings of your brother that have been lost. If you find it, you shall not neglect it, as if it belonged to a stranger.
4 Ary raha hitanao ny borikin’ ny rahalahinao, na ny ombiny, potraka any an-dalana, dia aza atao tsy ho raharahanao izany; fa manampia ny rahalahinao hanarina azy.
If you see that your brother’s donkey or ox has fallen along the way, you shall not disregard it. Instead, you shall lift it up with him.
5 Aoka ny vehivavy tsy hitafy ny fitafian-dehilahy; ary aoka ny lehilahy tsy hitafy ny fitafiam-behivavy; fa fahavetavetana eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany.
A woman shall not be clothed with manly apparel, nor shall a man make use of feminine apparel. For whoever does these things is abominable with God.
6 Raha sendra mahita akanim-borona eo anoloanao eny an-dalana ianao, na amin’ ny efa foy, na mbola atodiny, ary ny reniny manomba ny efa foy, na mikotrika ny atodiny, dia aza maka ny reniny mbamin’ ny zanany.
If, as you are walking along the way, you find a bird’s nest, in a tree or on the ground, and the mother is nurturing the young or the eggs, you shall not take her with her young.
7 Alefaso mihitsy ny reniny, fa ny zanany ihany no alao ho anao, mba hahita soa ianao ka ho maro andro.
Instead, you shall permit her to go, retaining the young that you have caught, so that it may be well with you, and you may live for a long time.
8 Raha manao trano vaovao ianao, dia asio aro-fanina ny tampony, fandrao hisy olona hianjera eny, ka hahatonga heloka ny amin’ ny rà ho ao an-tranonao ianao.
When you build a new house, you shall make a wall around the roof. Otherwise, someone may slip and fall down violently, and so blood would be shed at your house, and you would be guilty.
9 Aza fafazana voan-javatra roa karazana mifangaroharo ny taninao, fandrao samy ho lasa ho sazy ny vokatry ny voan-javatra nafafinao sy ny vokatry ny tanim-boalobokao.
You shall not sow your vineyard with another seed, lest both the seed that you have sown and what springs forth from the vineyard be sanctified together.
10 Aza mampikambana omby sy boriky hiasa tany.
You shall not till with an ox and a donkey at the same time.
11 Aza mitafy lamba volon’ ondry sy rongony mifamahofaho.
You shall not wear a vestment which has been woven from both wool and linen.
12 Asio somotraviaviny ny zorony efatra amin’ ny lambanao izay itafianao.
You shall make strings along the hem, at the four corners of your cloak, which covers you.
13 Raha misy lehilahy mampaka-bady ary mandry aminy, ka tsy tiany indray ravehivavy,
If a man takes a wife, and afterwards he has hatred for her,
14 dia haratsiny sy alàny baraka ka ataony hoe: Efa nampakatra ity vehivavy ity aho, nefa raha nandry taminy, dia tsy hitako ny famantarana azy ho virijina:
and so he seeks opportunities to dismiss her, imputing a very wicked name to her by saying, ‘I received this woman as a wife, and upon entering to her, I found her not to be a virgin,’
15 dia halain’ ny ray aman-drenin-drazazavavy ny famantarana azy ho virijina ka ho entiny ho eo amin’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna eo am-bavahady.
then her father and mother shall take her, and they shall bring with them the signs of her virginity, to the elders of the city who are at the gate.
16 Dia hiteny amin’ ny loholona ny rain-drazazavavy hoe: Ny zanako-vavy nomeko ho vadin’ io lehilahy io, kanefa tsy tiany indray izy;
And the father shall say: ‘I gave my daughter to this man as a wife. And because he hates her,
17 ary indro fa efa noharatsiny izy ka nataony hoe: Tsy hitako ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina; kanefa indreto ny famantarana ny zanakao-vavy ho virijina. Dia hamelatra ny lamba eo anatrehan’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izy mivady.
he accuses her with a very wicked name, by saying: “I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.” But behold, these are the signs of my daughter’s virginity.’ And they shall spread the clothing before the elders of the city.
18 Ary halain’ ny loholona amin’ ny tanàna izany lehilahy izany ka hofaizany.
And the elders of that city shall apprehend that man and beat him.
19 Dia hosaziny sekely volafotsy zato koa izy, ka homeny ny rain-drazazavavy izany, satria nahafa-baraka ny virijina anankiray tamin’ ny Isiraely ralehilahy; nefa dia ho vadiny ihany razazavavy ka tsy azony hisaorana amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.
Moreover, they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, which he will give to the father of the girl, because he has committed slander, with a very wicked name, against a virgin of Israel. And he shall have her as a wife, and he cannot dismiss her throughout all the days of his life.
20 Fa raha marina kosa izany lazainy izany, ka tsy hita ny famantarana an-drazazavavy ho virijina,
But if what he has claimed is true and virginity is not found in the girl,
21 dia ho entiny mivoaka ho eo anoloan’ ny varavaran’ ny tranon-drainy razazavavy ka hotorahan’ ny mponina amin’ ny tanànany vato ho faty, satria nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin’ ny Isiraely izy ka nijangajanga tao an-tranon-drainy; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.
then they shall throw her down, outside the doors of her father’s house, and the men of that city shall stone her to death, and she shall die. For she has acted wickedly in Israel, in that she fornicated in her father’s house. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.
22 Raha misy lehilahy azo mandry amim-behivavy vadin’ olona, dia samy hatao maty izy roroa, na ralehilahy izay nandry tamin-dravehivavy, na ravehivavy koa; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo amin’ ny Isiraely ny fanao ratsy.
If a man sleeps with the wife of another, then they shall both die, that is, the adulterer and the adulteress. And so shall you take away the evil from Israel.
23 Raha misy zazavavy virijina voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misy lehilahy mahita azy eo an-tanàna ka mandry aminy,
If a man has betrothed a girl who is a virgin, and if someone finds her in the city and he lies with her,
24 dia ho entinareo mivoaka ho eo amin’ ny vavahadin’ izany tanàna izany izy roroa ka hotorahanareo vato ho faty: razazavavy moa, satria tsy niantso, nefa tao an-tanàna ihany; ary ralehilahy koa, satria nandry tamin’ ny vadin’ ny namany; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.
then you shall lead them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned to death: the girl, because she did not cry out though she was in the city; the man, because he has humiliated the wife of his neighbor. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.
25 Fa raha any an-tsaha kosa no ahitan-dralehilahy an-drazazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ary misavika azy ralehilahy ka mandry aminy, dia ralehilahy izay nandry taminy ihany no hatao maty.
But if a man discovers, in the countryside, a girl who has been betrothed, and, apprehending her, he lies with her, then he alone shall die.
26 Fa ravehivavy dia tsy hasianao na inona na inona; fa tsy misy ota tokony hahafaty azy; fa tahaka ny olona mitsangana hamely ny namany ka mahafaty azy no hevitr’ izany zavatra izany.
The girl shall suffer nothing, nor is she guilty unto death. For just as a robber rises up against his brother and slays his life, so also did the girl suffer greatly.
27 Fa tany an-tsaha no nahitany azy; ary niantso ihany razazavavy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, nefa tsy nisy hamonjy azy.
She was alone in the field. She cried out, and there was no one nearby, who might deliver her.
28 Raha misy lehilahy mahita zazavavy virijina, izay tsy voafofo ho vadin’ olona, ka misavika azy sady mandry aminy, koa hita izy roroa,
If a man finds a girl who is a virgin, who does not have a betrothal, and, taking her, he lies with her, and the matter is brought to judgment,
29 dia hanome sekely volafotsy dimam-polo ho an’ ny rain-drazazavavy ralehilahy izay nandry taminy; ary hovadiny izy, satria efa nosavihiny sady nandriany; ary tsy azony hisaorana izy amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainany.
then he who slept with her shall give to the father of the girl fifty shekels of silver, and he shall have her as a wife, because he has humiliated her. He cannot dismiss her, throughout all the days of his life.
30 Tsy mahazo maka ny vadin-drainy ny olona, na maniry amin’ izay nandrian-drainy.
No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove her covering.”
