اَلتَّثْنِيَة 22

١ 1 «لَا تَنْظُرْ ثَوْرَ أَخِيكَ أَوْ شَاتَهُ شَارِدًا وَتَتَغَاضَى عَنْهُ، بَلْ تَرُدُّهُ إِلَى أَخِيكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ.

You shall not see your brother's ox or his sheep go astray, and hide yourself from them: you shall surely bring them again to your brother.

٢ 2 وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَخُوكَ قَرِيبًا مِنْكَ أَوْ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهُ، فَضُمَّهُ إِلَى دَاخِلِ بَيْتِكَ. وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَكَ حَتَّى يَطْلُبَهُ أَخُوكَ، حِينَئِذٍ تَرُدُّهُ إِلَيْهِ.

If your brother isn't near to you, or if you do not know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother seek after it, and you shall restore it to him.

٣ 3 وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِحِمَارِهِ، وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِثِيَابِهِ، وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِكُلِّ مَفْقُودٍ لِأَخِيكَ يُفْقَدُ مِنْهُ وَتَجِدُهُ. لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَتَغَاضَى.

So you shall do with his donkey; and so you shall do with his garment; and so you shall do with every lost thing of your brother's, which he has lost, and you have found: you may not hide yourself.

٤ 4 لَا تَنْظُرْ حِمَارَ أَخِيكَ أَوْ ثَوْرَهُ وَاقِعًا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَتَتَغَافَلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ تُقِيمُهُ مَعَهُ لَا مَحَالَةَ.

You shall not see your brother's donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and hide yourself from them: you shall surely help him to lift them up again.

٥ 5 «لَا يَكُنْ مَتَاعُ رَجُلٍ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةٍ، وَلَا يَلْبَسْ رَجُلٌ ثَوْبَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ ذَلِكَ مَكْرُوهٌ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ.

A woman shall not wear men's clothing, neither shall a man put on women's clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to YHWH your God.

٦ 6 «إِذَا ٱتَّفَقَ قُدَّامَكَ عُشُّ طَائِرٍ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ فِي شَجَرَةٍ مَّا أَوْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فِيهِ فِرَاخٌ أَوْ بَيْضٌ، وَٱلْأُمُّ حَاضِنَةٌ ٱلْفِرَاخَ أَوِ ٱلْبَيْضَ، فَلَا تَأْخُذِ ٱلْأُمَّ مَعَ ٱلْأَوْلَادِ.

If a bird's nest chance to be before you in the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the hen sitting on the young, or on the eggs, you shall not take the hen with the young:

٧ 7 أَطْلِقِ ٱلْأُمَّ وَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱلْأَوْلَادَ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ خَيْرٌ وَتُطِيلَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ.

you shall surely let the hen go, but the young you may take to yourself; that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days.

٨ 8 «إِذَا بَنَيْتَ بَيْتًا جَدِيدًا، فَٱعْمَلْ حَائِطًا لِسَطْحِكَ لِئَلَّا تَجْلِبَ دَمًا عَلَى بَيْتِكَ إِذَا سَقَطَ عَنْهُ سَاقِطٌ.

When you build a new house, then you shall make a battlement for your roof, that you do not bring blood on your house, if any man fall from there.

٩ 9 «لَا تَزْرَعْ حَقْلَكَ صِنْفَيْنِ، لِئَلَّا يَتَقَدَّسَ ٱلْمِلْءُ: ٱلزَّرْعُ ٱلَّذِي تَزْرَعُ وَمَحْصُولُ ٱلْحَقْلِ.

You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited, the seed which you have sown, and the increase of the vineyard.

١٠ 10 لَا تَحْرُثْ عَلَى ثَوْرٍ وَحِمَارٍ مَعًا.

You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.

١١ 11 لَا تَلْبَسْ ثَوْبًا مُخْتَلَطًا صُوفًا وَكَتَّانًا مَعًا.

You shall not wear a mixed stuff, wool and linen together.

١٢ 12 «اِعْمَلْ لِنَفْسِكَ جَدَائِلَ عَلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَطْرَافِ ثَوْبِكَ ٱلَّذِي تَتَغَطَّى بِهِ.

You shall make yourselves fringes on the four borders of your cloak, with which you cover yourself.

١٣ 13 «إِذَا ٱتَّخَذَ رَجُلٌ ٱمْرَأَةً وَحِينَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبْغَضَهَا،

If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, and hates her,

١٤ 14 وَنَسَبَ إِلَيْهَا أَسْبَابَ كَلَامٍ، وَأَشَاعَ عَنْهَا ٱسْمًا رَدِيًّا، وَقَالَ: هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱتَّخَذْتُهَا وَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْهَا لَمْ أَجِدْ لَهَا عُذْرَةً.

and accuses her of shameful things, and brings up an evil name on her, and says, "I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I did not find in her the tokens of virginity";

١٥ 15 يَأْخُذُ ٱلْفَتَاةَ أَبُوهَا وَأُمُّهَا وَيُخْرِجَانِ عَلَامَةَ عُذْرَتِهَا إِلَى شُيُوخِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى ٱلْبَابِ،

then shall the father of the young woman, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the young woman's virginity to the elders of the city in the gate;

١٦ 16 وَيَقُولُ أَبُو ٱلْفَتَاةِ لِلشُّيُوخِ: أَعْطَيْتُ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلَ ٱبْنَتِي زَوْجَةً فَأَبْغَضَهَا.

and the young woman's father shall tell the elders, "I gave my daughter to this man to wife, and he hates her;

١٧ 17 وَهَا هُوَ قَدْ جَعَلَ أَسْبَابَ كَلَامٍ قَائِلًا: لَمْ أَجِدْ لِبِنْتِكَ عُذْرَةً. وَهَذِهِ عَلَامَةُ عُذْرَةِ ٱبْنَتِي. وَيَبْسُطَانِ ٱلثَّوْبَ أَمَامَ شُيُوخِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ.

and look, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, 'I did not find in your daughter the tokens of virginity;' and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity." They shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.

١٨ 18 فَيَأْخُذُ شُيُوخُ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلرَّجُلَ وَيُؤَدِّبُونَهُ

The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him;

١٩ 19 وَيُغْرِمُونَهُ بِمِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَيُعْطُونَهَا لِأَبِي ٱلْفَتَاةِ، لِأَنَّهُ أَشَاعَ ٱسْمًا رَدِيًّا عَنْ عَذْرَاءَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَتَكُونُ لَهُ زَوْجَةً. لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِهِ.

and they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the young woman, because he has brought up an evil name on a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.

٢٠ 20 «وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ صَحِيحًا، لَمْ تُوجَدْ عُذْرَةٌ لِلْفَتَاةِ.

But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young woman;

٢١ 21 يُخْرِجُونَ ٱلْفَتَاةَ إِلَى بَابِ بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا، وَيَرْجُمُهَا رِجَالُ مَدِينَتِهَا بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ حَتَّى تَمُوتَ، لِأَنَّهَا عَمِلَتْ قَبَاحَةً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِزِنَاهَا فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ.

then they shall bring out the young woman to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father's house: so you shall put away the evil from the midst of you.

٢٢ 22 «إِذَا وُجِدَ رَجُلٌ مُضْطَجِعًا مَعَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ زَوْجَةِ بَعْلٍ، يُقْتَلُ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ: ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمُضْطَجِعُ مَعَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman: so you shall put away the evil from Israel.

٢٣ 23 «إِذَا كَانَتْ فَتَاةٌ عَذْرَاءُ مَخْطُوبَةً لِرَجُلٍ، فَوَجَدَهَا رَجُلٌ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا،

If there is a young woman who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;

٢٤ 24 فَأَخْرِجُوهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا إِلَى بَابِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَٱرْجُمُوهُمَا بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ حَتَّى يَمُوتَا. ٱلْفَتَاةُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَصْرُخْ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَٱلرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ أَذَلَّ ٱمْرَأَةَ صَاحِبِهِ. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ.

then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the woman, because she did not cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbor's wife: so you shall put away the evil from the midst of you.

٢٥ 25 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ وَجَدَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْفَتَاةَ ٱلْمَخْطُوبَةَ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَأَمْسَكَهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا، يَمُوتُ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا وَحْدَهُ.

But if the man find the woman who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her; then the man only who lay with her shall die:

٢٦ 26 وَأَمَّا ٱلْفَتَاةُ فَلَا تَفْعَلْ بِهَا شَيْئًا. لَيْسَ عَلَى ٱلْفَتَاةِ خَطِيَّةٌ لِلْمَوْتِ، بَلْ كَمَا يَقُومُ رَجُلٌ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ وَيَقْتُلُهُ قَتْلًا. هَكَذَا هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ.

but to the woman you shall do nothing; there is in the woman no sin worthy of death: for as when a man rises against his neighbor, and kills him, even so is this matter;

٢٧ 27 إِنَّهُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَجَدَهَا، فَصَرَخَتِ ٱلْفَتَاةُ ٱلْمَخْطُوبَةُ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَنْ يُخَلِّصُهَا.

for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married woman cried, and there was none to save her.

٢٨ 28 «إِذَا وَجَدَ رَجُلٌ فَتَاةً عَذْرَاءَ غَيْرَ مَخْطُوبَةٍ، فَأَمْسَكَهَا وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا، فَوُجِدَا.

If a man find a woman who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;

٢٩ 29 يُعْطِي ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا لِأَبِي ٱلْفَتَاةِ خَمْسِينَ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَتَكُونُ هِيَ لَهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَذَلَّهَا. لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِهِ.

then the man who lay with her shall give to the woman's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has humbled her; he may not put her away all his days.

٣٠ 30 «لَا يَتَّخِذْ رَجُلٌ ٱمْرَأَةَ أَبِيهِ، وَلَا يَكْشِفْ ذَيْلَ أَبِيهِ.

A man shall not take his father's wife, and shall not uncover his father's skirt.
