Is taking money from the exchange company where I work as an accountant, as a loan without the owners' knowledge, with the intention of returning it and deducting a portion of my salary to repay it, considered forbidden and a betrayal of trust, and categorized among the actions of hypocrites, and what should I do in this situation, knowing that informing them might lead to my dismissal from work?

What you did is clear treachery, and it is not permissible for you to take the company's money without the permission of its owners. You must repent sincerely and return what you wrongfully took to its rightful owners. Since you fear dismissal, return what you took in installments according to your ability, and strive to perfect your work and benefit the company's owners.
