< 5 Mosebog 22 >

1 Du skal ikke se din Broders Okse eller hans Lam farende vild og undslaa dig for at tage dig af dem; men du skal føre dem tilbage til din Broder.
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.
2 Men dersom din Broder ikke er nær hos dig, og du ikke kender ham, da skal du tage det ind i dit Hus, og det skal være hos dig, indtil din Broder søger derefter, da skal du give ham det tilbage.
If your brother isn’t near to you, or if you don’t know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother comes looking for it, and you shall restore it to him.
3 Og saaledes skal du gøre med hans Asen, og saaledes skal du gøre med hans Klæder, og saaledes skal du gøre med alt det, som din Broder har tabt, med hvad der er tabt af ham, og som du finder; du maa ikke undslaa dig derfor.
So you shall do with his donkey. So you shall do with his garment. 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.
4 Du skal ikke se din Broders Asen eller hans Okse falde paa Vejen og undslaa dig for at tage dig af dem; du skal rejse dem op med ham.
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.
5 Der skal intet Mandstøj være paa en Kvinde, og en Mand skal ikke føre sig i Kvindeklæder; thi hver den, som gør disse Ting, er en Vederstyggelighed for Herren din Gud.
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 the LORD your God.
6 Naar du finder en Fuglerede paa Vejen, i et Træ eller paa Jorden, og der er Unger eller Æg, og Moderen ligger paa Ungerne eller paa Æggene, da skal du ikke tage Moderen med Ungerne.
If you come across a bird’s nest on 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.
7 Men du skal lade Moderen fare og tage Ungerne til dig, at det maa gaa dig vel, og du maa forlænge dine Dage.
You shall surely let the hen go, but the young you may take for yourself, that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days.
8 Naar du bygger et nyt Hus, da skal du gøre et Rækværk om dit Tag, at du ikke skal bringe Blodskyld over dit Hus, hvis nogen falder ned derfra.
When you build a new house, then you shall make a railing around your roof, so that you don’t bring blood on your house if anyone falls from there.
9 Du skal ikke saa din Vingaard med to Slags, at din Sæds Fylde, som du saar, og Vingaardens Afgrøde ikke skal hjemfalde til Helligdommen.
You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest all the fruit be defiled, the seed which you have sown, and the increase of the vineyard.
10 Du skal ikke pløje med en Okse og med et Asen sammen.
You shall not plough with an ox and a donkey together.
11 Du skal ikke iføre dig Klæder, vævede af uldent og Linned sammen.
You shall not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together.
12 Du skal gøre dig Snore paa de fire Flige af dit Klædebon, som du skjuler dig med.
You shall make yourselves fringes on the four corners of your cloak with which you cover yourself.
13 Naar en Mand tager en Hustru og kommer ind til hende, men faar Had til hende
If any man takes a wife, and goes in to her, hates her,
14 og tillægger hende skammelige Ting og fører ondt Rygte ud om hende og siger: Denne Kvinde tog jeg og holdt mig nær til hende, og jeg fandt ikke Jomfrudom hos hende:
accuses her of shameful things, gives her a bad name, and says, “I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I didn’t find in her the tokens of virginity;”
15 Da skal Pigens Fader og hendes Moder tage og bringe Pigens jomfruelige Tegn ud til Stadens Ældste til Porten.
then the young lady’s father and mother shall take and bring the tokens of the young lady’s virginity to the elders of the city in the gate.
16 Og Pigens Fader skal sige til de Ældste: Jeg gav denne Mand min Datter til Hustru, og han har faaet Had til hende.
The young lady’s father shall tell the elders, “I gave my daughter to this man as his wife, and he hates her.
17 Og se, han tillægger hende skammelige Ting og siger: Jeg har ikke fundet din Datters Jomfrudom, skønt disse ere min Datters jomfruelige Tegn; saa skulle de udbrede Klædet for de Ældste af Staden.
Behold, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, ‘I didn’t 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.
18 Og de Ældste af Staden skulle tage Manden og revse ham.
The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him.
19 Og de skulle straffe ham paa hundrede Sekel Sølv og give Pigens Fader dem, fordi han har ført ondt Rygte ud om en Jomfru i Israel; saa skal han have hende til Hustru, han maa ikke nogensinde lade hende fare.
They shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the young lady, because he has given a bad name to a virgin of Israel. She shall be his wife. He may not put her away all his days.
20 Men dersom det Ord har været Sandhed, at Pigens Jomfrudom ikke fandtes:
But if this thing is true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young lady,
21 Da skulle de føre Pigen ud til Døren af hendes Faders Hus, og Mændene af hendes Stad skulle stene hende med Stene, og hun skal dø, fordi hun gjorde en Daarlighed i Israel ved at bedrive Hor i sin Faders Hus; og du skal borttage den onde af din Midte.
then they shall bring out the young lady 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 remove the evil from amongst you.
22 Dersom en Mand findes at ligge hos en Kvinde, som er en Mands Ægtehustru, da skulle de begge tilsammen dø, Manden, som laa hos Kvinden, og Kvinden; og du skal borttage den onde af Israel.
If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both die, the man who lay with the woman and the woman. So you shall remove the evil from Israel.
23 Naar en Pige, en Jomfru, er trolovet med en Mand, og en Mand finder hende i Staden og ligger hos hende:
If there is a young lady who is a virgin pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her,
24 Da skulle I føre dem begge ud til samme Stads Port og stene dem med Stene, og de skulle dø, Pigen for den Sags Skyld, at hun ikke raabte i Staden, og Manden for den Sags Skyld, at han krænkede sin Næstes Hustru; og du skal borttage den onde af din Midte.
then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn’t cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has humbled his neighbour’s wife. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.
25 Men dersom Manden finder den trolovede Pige paa Marken, og Manden holder fast paa hende og ligger hos hende, da skal alene Manden, som laa hos hende, dø.
But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die;
26 Men Pigen skal du ikke gøre noget, for Pigen er det ingen Dødssynd; thi ligesom en vil rejse sig imod sin Næste og slaa ham ihjel, saa er og denne Handel.
but to the lady you shall do nothing. There is in the lady no sin worthy of death; for as when a man rises against his neighbour and kills him, even so is this matter;
27 Thi han fandt hende paa Marken; den trolovede Pige raabte, og der var ingen, som frelste hende.
for he found her in the field, the pledged to be married lady cried, and there was no one to save her.
28 Naar nogen finder en Pige, en Jomfru, som ikke er trolovet, og tager fat paa hende og ligger hos hende, og de findes:
If a man finds a lady who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, grabs her and lies with her, and they are found,
29 Da skal den Mand, som laa hos hende, give Pigens Fader halvtredsindstyve Sekel Sølv, og hun skal være hans Hustru for den Sags Skyld, at han krænkede hende; han maa ikke nogensinde lade hende fare.
then the man who lay with her shall give to the lady’s father fifty shekels of silver. She shall be his wife, because he has humbled her. He may not put her away all his days.
30 En Mand skal ikke tage sin Faders Hustru og ej opslaa sin Faders Flig.
A man shall not take his father’s wife, and shall not uncover his father’s skirt.
