Deuteronomy 25

Raha misy olona manana ady ka mankeo amin'ny fitsarana ary tsarain'ny mpitsara, dia aoka hohamarininy izay marina ary hohelohiny kosa izay meloka.

If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.

Ary raha tokony hokapohina ny meloka, dia aoka hampandrin'ny mpitsara izy ka hokapohina eo anatrehany, ary hatao araka ny helony no isan'ny kapoka hatao aminy.

And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.

Hatramin'ny efa-polo no kapoka azo hatao aminy, fa tsy hatao mihoatra; fandrao raha mihoatra noho izany, dia ho toy ny tsinontsinona eo imasonao ny rahalahinao.

Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.

Aza manakombona ny vavan'ny omby mively vary.

Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.

Raha misy mpirahalahy miara-monina, ary maty momba ny anankiray, dia aoka tsy hanambady vahiny any ivelany ny vadin'ny maty; fa ny rahalahin'ny vadiny ihany no aoka hanambady azy ka hitondra loloha azy.

If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her.

Ary ny lahimatoa izay haterany dia hitondra ny anaran'ilay rahalahy izay efa maty, mba tsy ho faty maso eo amin'ny Isiraely izy.

And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.

Ary raha tsy sitra-dralehilahy ny hitondra loloha ny vadin-drahalahiny, dia aoka hankeo amin'ny vavahady ho eo amin'ny loholona ravehivavy ka hanao hoe: Ny rahalahin'ny vadiko tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny, fa tsy mety mitondra loloha ahy.

And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then let his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's brother.

Dia hantsoin'ny loholona amin'ny tanàna ralehilahy ka hadininy; ary raha mikiry izy ka manao hoe: Tsy sitrako ny hanambady azy,

Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand to it, and say, I like not to take her;

dia hanatona azy eo anatrehan'ny loholona ny vadin-drahalahiny ka hanala ny kapa amin'ny tongo-dralehilahy, dia handrora amin'ny tavany ka hiteny hoe: Toy izany no hatao amin'izay olona tsy mety mamelo-maso ny rahalahiny.

Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house.

Ary ny anaran-dralehilahy dia hatao eo amin'ny Isiraely hoe: Fianakavian'ilay nalan-kapa.

And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.

Raha misy olona miady, ary ny vadin'ny anankiray manatona hamonjy ny vadiny amin'ny tànan'izay mamely azy, ary maninjitra ny tànany ka mandray azy an-kasarotana,

When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets:

dia hotapahinao ny tànany; tsy hiantra azy ny masonao.

Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.

Aoka tsy hisy vato mahery sy reraka ao an-kitaponao.

Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.

Aoka tsy hisy famarana mihoatra sy latsaka ao an-tranonao.

Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small.

Vato feno lanja sady marina ary famarana tonga ohatra sady marina no aoka hotananao, mba ho maro andro ianao any amin'ny tany izay omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao.

But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

Fa fahavetavetana eo imason'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao izay rehetra manao izany zavatra izany, dia izay rehetra manao ny tsy marina.

For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.

Tsarovy izay nataon'ny Amalekita taminao teny an-dalana tamin'ny nandehananareo avy tany Egypta,

Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt;

dia ny nitsenany anao teny an-dalana sy ny namelezany ny vodi-lalanao, dia izay rehetra tsy afaka teo aorianao, raha reraka sy sasatra ianao; fa tsy natahotra an'Andriamanitra izy.

How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.

Ary rehefa omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao fitsaharana amin'ny fahavalonao rehetra manodidina ianao any amin'ny tany izay omen'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao ho lovanao, dia hovonoinao ny fahatsiarovana ny Amalekita tsy ho eo ambanin'ny lanitra intsony: aza hadinoinao izany.

Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it.
