申命記 24
1 「人若娶妻以後，見她有甚麼不合理的事，不喜悅她，就可以寫休書交在她手中，打發她離開夫家。
When a man taketh a wife, and marrieth her, it shall be if she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a letter of divorce, and give it into her hand, and send her out of his house.
2 婦人離開夫家以後，可以去嫁別人。
And she shall depart out of his house, and go away, and may become another man's wife.
3 後夫若恨惡她，寫休書交在她手中，打發她離開夫家，或是娶她為妻的後夫死了，
And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a letter of divorce, and give it into her hand, and send her out of his house; or if the latter husband die who took her as his wife;
4 打發她去的前夫不可在婦人玷污之後再娶她為妻，因為這是耶和華所憎惡的；不可使耶和華－你上帝所賜為業之地被玷污了。」
her first husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for it is an abomination before Jehovah; and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
5 「新娶妻之人不可從軍出征，也不可託他辦理甚麼公事，可以在家清閒一年，使他所娶的妻快活。
When a man hath newly taken a wife, he shall not go out with the army, neither shall any kind of business be imposed upon him; he shall be free for his house one year, and shall gladden his wife whom he hath taken.
6 「不可拿人的全盤磨石或是上磨石作當頭，因為這是拿人的命作當頭。
No man shall take the hand-mill or the upper millstone in pledge; for it would be taking life in pledge.
7 「若遇見人拐帶以色列中的一個弟兄，當奴才待他，或是賣了他，那拐帶人的就必治死。這樣，便將那惡從你們中間除掉。
If a man be found who hath stolen one of his brethren of the children of Israel, and who hath treated him as a slave and sold him, that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
8 「在大痲瘋的災病上，你們要謹慎，照祭司利未人一切所指教你們的留意遵行。我怎樣吩咐他們，你們要怎樣遵行。
Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou take great heed, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them shall ye take heed to do.
9 當記念出埃及後，在路上，耶和華－你上帝向米利暗所行的事。
Remember what Jehovah thy God did unto Miriam on the way, after that ye came forth out of Egypt.
10 「你借給鄰舍，不拘是甚麼，不可進他家拿他的當頭。
When thou dost lend thy brother anything, thou shalt not go into his house to secure his pledge.
11 要站在外面，等那向你借貸的人把當頭拿出來交給你。
Thou shalt stand outside, and the man to whom thou hast made a loan shall bring out the pledge to thee without.
12 他若是窮人，你不可留他的當頭過夜。
And if the man be needy, thou shalt not lie down with his pledge;
13 日落的時候，總要把當頭還他，使他用那件衣服蓋着睡覺，他就為你祝福；這在耶和華－你上帝面前就是你的義了。
in any case thou shalt return him the pledge at the going down of the sun, that he may sleep in his own upper garment and bless thee; and it shall be righteousness unto thee before Jehovah thy God.
14 「困苦窮乏的雇工，無論是你的弟兄或是在你城裏寄居的，你不可欺負他。
Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant [who is] poor and needy of thy brethren, or of thy sojourners who are in thy land within thy gates:
15 要當日給他工價，不可等到日落－因為他窮苦，把心放在工價上－恐怕他因你求告耶和華，罪便歸你了。
on his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and his soul yearneth after it; lest he cry against thee to Jehovah, and it be a sin in thee.
16 「不可因子殺父，也不可因父殺子；凡被殺的都為本身的罪。
The fathers shall not be put to death for the sons, neither shall the sons be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17 「你不可向寄居的和孤兒屈枉正直，也不可拿寡婦的衣裳作當頭。
Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, [or] of the fatherless; and thou shalt not take in pledge a widow's garment.
18 要記念你在埃及作過奴僕。耶和華－你的上帝從那裏將你救贖，所以我吩咐你這樣行。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God redeemed thee from thence; therefore I command thee to do this thing.
19 「你在田間收割莊稼，若忘下一捆，不可回去再取，要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。這樣，耶和華－你上帝必在你手裏所辦的一切事上賜福與你。
When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and forgettest a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not return to fetch it; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
20 你打橄欖樹，枝上剩下的，不可再打；要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。
When thou shakest thine olive-tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 你摘葡萄園的葡萄，所剩下的，不可再摘；要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。
When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterwards; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 你也要記念你在埃及地作過奴僕，所以我吩咐你這樣行。
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt; therefore I command thee to do this thing.
