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。
Should a man marry a woman, but then isn't pleased with her because he finds out something shameful about her, he is allowed to write out a certificate of divorce for her, give it to her, and send her out of his house.
2 婦人離開夫家以後，可以去嫁別人。
Suppose that after leaving his house, she goes marries another man,
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 suppose the second man also ends up hating her, writes out a certificate of divorce for her, gives it to her, and sends her out of his house—or he may happen to die.
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。」
The first husband who divorced her is not permitted to marry her again after she was shamed, for that offends the Lord. You are not bring guilt upon the land that the Lord your God is giving you to own.
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。
If a man has just got married, he is not to be sent to war or made to do any other duties. He is free to stay at home for one year and make his wife happy.
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。
Don't accept a pair of millstones, or even just an upper millstone, as security for a debt, because that would put the borrower's life in danger.
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。
Anyone caught kidnapping a fellow Israelite must be executed, whether the kidnapper makes him a slave or sells him. You must eliminate the evil from among you.
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。
When it comes to infectious skin diseases, make sure you follow carefully all the instructions of the Levitical priests. Be careful to follow the orders I've given them.
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 the Lord your God did to Miriam on the journey out of Egypt.
10 「你借給鄰舍，不拘是甚麼，不可進他家拿他的當頭。
If you lend anything to someone, don't go into their house to take some kind of security.
11 要站在外面，等那向你借貸的人把當頭拿出來交給你。
Stand outside while they go inside and bring the security out to you.
12 他若是窮人，你不可留他的當頭過夜。
If he is a poor man he may give his cloak as security, but you must not keep it when you go to sleep.
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。
Make sure you give it back by sunset, so that he can sleep in his own cloak and thank you, and you will be counted as doing good by the Lord your 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。
Don't mistreat a paid servant who is poor and needy, whether he's an Israelite or a foreigner living in one of your towns.
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。
Pay his wages every day before sunset, because he is poor and is relying on them. If you don't he may complain to the Lord about you, and you will be found guilty of sin.
16 「不可因子殺父，也不可因父殺子；凡被殺的都為本身的罪。
Fathers are not to be executed because of their children, and children are not to be executed because of their fathers. Each person is to be executed because of their 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。
Don't treat foreigners or orphans unjustly; don't take a widow's cloak as security.
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。
Remember that you were once slaves in Egypt, and the Lord your God rescued you from that place. That's why I'm ordering you to do this.
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。
If when you're harvesting in your field you forget a sheaf there, don't go back for it. Leave it for the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do.
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 you shake the olive trees to knock down the olives, don't go over the branches again. What's left is for the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows.
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。

22 你也要記念你在埃及地作過奴僕，所以我吩咐你這樣行。
Remember you were once slaves in Egypt. That's why I'm ordering you to do this.
