¹“You shall not spread a false report. Don’t join your hand with the wicked to be a malicious witness.

¹ Ni ma si tangari baaru sambu ka dede. Ni ma si me haw da boro laalo hala ni ma ciya seedako kaŋ ga zamba.

²“You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; neither shall you testify in court to side with a multitude to pervert justice;

² Ni ma si jama gana goy laalo teeyaŋ se. Ma si seeda no mo ciiti ra ka kamba jama ganayaŋ se ka asariya* siirandi.

³neither shall you favor a poor man in his cause.

³ Ni ma si rongome talka se d'i kand'a kalima.

⁴“If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.

⁴ Da ni gar ni ibare yeeji wala a farka te boŋdaray, daahir kala ni ma kond'a a se.

⁵If you see the donkey of him who hates you fallen down under his burden, don’t leave him, you shall surely help him with it.

⁵ Da ni di ni ibare farka go ga kani nga jarawo cire, ni goono ga miila mo ni ma wangu k'a gaa, daahir kala ni m'a gaa ka zumandi.

⁶“You shall not deny justice to your poor people in their lawsuits.

⁶ Ni ma si ciiti siirandi ni talka se saaya kaŋ a kande nga kalima.

⁷“Keep far from a false charge, and don’t kill the innocent and righteous: for I will not justify the wicked.

⁷ Ma mooru tangari sanni. Ma si boro kaŋ sinda taali wala adilante* wi mo, zama ay si boro laalo adilandi* bo.

⁸“You shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds those who have sight and perverts the words of the righteous.

⁸ Ni ma si me-daabu ta mo, zama me-daabu ga boro kaŋ ga di din ciya danaw, a ga adilantey sanney barmay mo.

⁹“You shall not oppress an alien, for you know the heart of an alien, since you were aliens in the land of Egypt.

⁹ Ni ma si yaw gurzugandi, zama araŋ ga yawtaray daa bay, za kaŋ araŋ mo na yawtaray te Misira laabo ra.

¹⁰“For six years you shall sow your land, and shall gather in its increase,

¹⁰ Jiiri iddu no ni ga ni laabo duma, ni m'a fari albarka margu mo.

¹¹but the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, that the poor of your people may eat; and what they leave the animal of the field shall eat. In the same way, you shall deal with your vineyard and with your olive grove.

¹¹ Amma jiiri iyyanta ra ni ga naŋ a ma fulanzam, ni ma s'a duma. Ni borey ra alfukaarey ga ŋwa a jarawo gaa. Haŋ kaŋ cindi mo, ganji hamey ma ŋwa. Yaadin no ni ga te da ni reyzin* kalo da ni zeytun* nyaŋey mo.

¹²“Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest, that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your handmaid, and the alien may be refreshed.

¹² Jirbi iddu no ni ga goy. Zaari iyyanta ni ga fulanzam, zama ni yeejo da ni farka ma du fulanzamay, ni koŋŋa izey da yaw mo ma du fulanzamay.

¹³“Be careful to do all things that I have said to you; and don’t invoke the name of other gods, neither let them be heard out of your mouth.

¹³ Haŋ kaŋ ay ci araŋ se kulu, araŋ m'a haggoy. Araŋ ma si de-koy fooyaŋ maa ce, i ma si maa r'ey ni me ra mo.

¹⁴“You shall observe a feast to me three times a year.

¹⁴ Jiiro ra sorro hinza no ni ga sududuyaŋ batu haggoy ay se.

¹⁵You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib (for in it you came out from Egypt), and no one shall appear before me empty.

¹⁵ Buuru kaŋ sinda dalbu sududuyaŋ bato, ni ga haggoy d'a. Jirbi iyye no ni ga buuru kaŋ sinda dalbu ŋwa, danga mate kaŋ cine ay na ni lordi* nd'a, alwaato kaŋ ay daŋ ni se handu sintina ra, zama a ra no ni fun Misira. Boro kulu ma si bangay ay jine mo kambe koonu.

¹⁶And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you sow in the field: and the feast of harvest, at the end of the year, when you gather in your labors out of the field.

¹⁶ Woodin banda, heemar sududuyaŋ bato, ni fari dumi izey kaŋ ni duma fari boŋ-jina. Da mo wiyaŋ banda sududuyaŋ bato jiiro bananta wano, saaya kaŋ ni na ni fari dumi izey kulu wi ka jisi.

¹⁷Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Yahweh.

¹⁷ Sorro hinza din jiiro ra no ni alborey kulu ma kaa Rabbi Irikoy jine.

¹⁸“You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread, neither shall the fat of my feast remain all night until the morning.

¹⁸ Ni ma si ay sarga kuro salle nda buuru dalbukoy a banda. I ma si naŋ mo ay sarga maano ma kani kala susuba.

¹⁹The first of the first fruits of your ground you shall bring into the house of Yahweh your God. “You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.

¹⁹ Ni laabo wane boŋ-jina, sintinay wano, ni ga kand'a Rabbi ni Irikoyo windo ra. Ni ma si hincin ize hina mo nga nyaŋo wa ra.

²⁰“Behold, I send an angel before you, to keep you by the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.

²⁰ Guna, ay ga malayka donton ni jine kaŋ ga ni haggoy fonda ra, a ma konda nin nango kaŋ ay soola.

²¹Pay attention to him, and listen to his voice. Don’t provoke him, for he will not pardon your disobedience, for my name is in him.

²¹ Araŋ ma laakal d'a, araŋ ma hanga jeeri a sanno se, araŋ ma si wang'a se mo, zama a si araŋ hartayaŋey yaafa bo, zama ay maa go a ra.

²²But if you indeed listen to his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.

²² Amma da day ni na hanga jeeri a sanney kulu se, ni maa hay kulu kaŋ ay ci, kal ay ma ciya ibare ni ibarey se, yanjekaari mo ni yanjekaarey se.

²³For my angel shall go before you, and bring you in to the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I will cut them off.

²³ Zama ay malayka ga furo ni jine ka konda nin hala Amorancey, da Hittancey, da Perizancey, da Kanaanancey, da Hibancey, da Yebusancey do, ay g'i tuusu mo.

²⁴You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor follow their practices, but you shall utterly overthrow them and demolish their pillars.

²⁴ Ni ma si sombu i de-koyey se, ni ma si may i se, ni ma si i teerey dondon mo, amma ni ma si jaŋ k'i halaci pat! Ma si jaŋ k'i toorey bagu-bagu mo.

²⁵You shall serve Yahweh your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from your midst.

²⁵ Araŋ ma may Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo se. Nga mo ga ni ŋwaaro da ni haro albarkandi, ay ma doori sombu ka kaa ni gaa mo.

²⁶No one will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will fulfill the number of your days.

²⁶ Gunda hasaraw koy si te, waygunu si te ni laabo ra. Ay ga ni jirbey kubandi ni se mo.

²⁷I will send my terror before you, and will confuse all the people to whom you come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.

²⁷ Ay g'ay humburkuma samba ni jine, ay ma dumi cindey kulu laakaley tunandi, ngey kaŋ yaŋ do ni goono ga koy. Ay ma naŋ ni ibarey ma banda bare ni se.

²⁸I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.

²⁸ Ay ga cebeeri-hawlandi zugula samba ni jine, kaŋ yaŋ ga Hibancey da Kanaanancey da Hittancey gaaray ni jine.

²⁹I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the animals of the field multiply against you.

²⁹ Ay si i gaaray ni jine mo jiiri folloŋ ra bo, zama laabo ma si goro koonu, ganji hamey mo ma baa ka bisa nin gaabi.

³⁰Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and inherit the land.

³⁰ Kayna-kayna no ay g'i gaaray ni jine, hala waati kaŋ ni ga tonton ka laabo tubu.

³¹I will set your border from the Red Sea or, Sea of Reeds even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.

³¹ Ay ga ni hirro daŋ za Teeku Cira gaa kala Filistancey teeko gaa, za saaji beero gaa mo kala isa me gaa, zama ay ga laabo borey daŋ ni kamba ra. Ni g'i gaaray mo ni jine.

³²You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.

³² Ni ma si sappe nd'ey wala nd'i toorey.

³³They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”

³³ I ma si goro ni laabo ra, zama i ma si ni daŋ ni ma zunubi te ay se. Zama da ni may i de-koyey se, daahir a ga ciya ni se hirrimi.
