Deuteronomy 17

Aza vonoina hatao fanatitra ho an'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay misy kilema maharatsy azy, na omby na ondry na, fa fahavetavetana eo imason'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ny manao izany.

Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the LORD thy God any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness: for that is an abomination unto the LORD thy God.

Raha misy hita ao aminao ao an-tanànanao, izay omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao, na lehilahy na vehivavy manao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ka mivadika ny fanekeny

If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,

ka lasa mandeha manompo andriamani-kafa ary mivavaka aminy na amin'ny masoandro, na amin'ny volana, na amin'ny kintana, izay zavatra efa nandrarako azy,

And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;

ka voalaza aminao izany, ary efa renao, dia diniho tsara, ka indro, raha nisy marina tokoa izany zavatra izany, ka natao teo amin'ny Isiraely izany fahavetavetana izany:

And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:

dia avoahy ho eo am-bavahadinao izay lehilahy na vehivavy efa nanao izany zava-dratsy izany, ka torahy vato ho faty.

Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.

Amin'ny tenin'ny vavolombelona roa na telo no hamonoana izay tokony ho faty; fa ny tenin'ny vavolombelona iray monja dia tsy hahafaty azy.

At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.

Ny tanan'ny vavolombelona no ho voalohany hamono azy, dia vao ny tanan'ny vahoaka rehetra; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo aminao ny fanao ratsy.

The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou shalt put the evil away from among you.

Raha misy teny sarotra loatra amin'ny fitsarana ka tsy efanao, na ny amin'ny mahafaty aina, na ny ady na ny vonoana, izay iadiana ao an-tanànanao, dia miaingà ianao, ka miakara any amin'ny tany izay hofidin'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao.

If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;

ary mankanesa amin'ireo Levita mpisorona sy amin'ny anankiray izay mpitsara amin'izany andro izany, ka manontania, dia hambarany aminao ny teny fitsarana.

And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and enquire; and they shall shew thee the sentence of judgment:

Ary araho ny teny izay hambarany aminao eo amin'ny tany izay hofidin'i Jehovah, ka mitandrema hanao araka izay rehetra hatorony anao.

And thou shalt do according to the sentence, which they of that place which the LORD shall choose shall shew thee; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform thee:

Araka ny lalàna izay hatorony anao sy araka ny fitsarana izay holazainy aminao no hataonao; aza mivily miala amin'ny teny izay hambarany aminao, na ho amin'ny ankavanana, na ho amin'ny ankavia.

According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.

Fa ny olona izay miavonavona ka tsy mihaino ny mpisorona izay mitsangana hanao fanompoam-pivavahana eo anatrehan'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, na ny mpitsara, dia aoka ho faty izany olona izany; ka dia hofongoranao tsy ho eo amin'ny Isiraely ny fanao ratsy.

And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.

Ary ny vahoaka rehetra handre, dia hatahotra ka tsy hiavonavona intsony.

And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.

Rehefa tonga any amin'ny tany izay omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao ianao ka mandova azy sy monina eo ary manao hoe: Hanangana mpanjaka ho ahy aho, mba ho tahaka ny firenena rehetra izay manodidina ahy,

When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that are about me;

dia izay hofidin'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ihany no hatsanganao ho mpanjakanao: anankiray amin'ny rahalahinao no hatsanganao ho mpanjakanao, fa tsy mahazo mifidy olona hafa firenena izay tsy avy amin'ny rahalahinao ianao.

Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.

Kanefa aoka tsy hanana soavaly maro izy, na hampiverina ny olona ho any Egypta mba hahazoany soavaly maro, satria hoy Jehovah taminareo: Aza miverina amin'izany lalana izany intsony.

But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.

Ary aoka tsy hamporafy maro izy, fandrao hivily ny fony; ary aoka tsy hamory volafotsy na volamena be ho azy izy.

Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.

Ary rehefa mipetraka eo ambonin'ny sezam-panjakany izy, dia aoka hadikany ho azy amin'ny boky izao lalàna izao ka hataony araka ilay tehirizin'ireo Levita mpisorona.

And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:

Ary ho ao aminy izany ka hovakiny amin'ny andro rehetra hiainany, mba hianarany hatahotra an'i Jehovah Andriamaniny ka hitandrina ny teny rehetra amin'izao lalàna izao sy ireto didy ireto hankatoavany azy,

And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:

mba tsy hiavonavonan'ny fony amin'ny rahalahiny, ary mba tsy hiviliany hiala amin'ny lalàna, na ho amin'ny ankavanana, na ho amin'ny ankavia, mba ho maro andro amin'ny fanjakany eo amin'ny Isiraely; izy sy ny taranany.

That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.
