< 5 Mosebog 22 >

1 Naar du ser din Broders Okse eller Faar løbe løse om, maa du ikke undlade at tage dig af dem, men du skal bringe dem tilbage til din Broder.
“You do not see the ox of your brother or his sheep driven away, and have hidden yourself from them, you certainly turn them back to your brother;
2 Og hvis din Broder ikke bor i Nærheden af dig, eller du ikke ved, hvis Dyret er, skal du tage det ind i dit Hus, og det skal være hos dig, indtil din Broder spørger efter det; saa skal du give ham det tilbage.
and if your brother [is] not near to you, and you have not known him, then you have removed it to the midst of your house, and it has been with you until your brother seeks it, and you have given it back to him;
3 Paa samme Maade skal du forholde dig med hans Æsel, med hans Klæder og med alt, hvad der bliver borte for din Broder, naar du finder det. Du maa ikke undlade at tage dig af det.
and so you do to his donkey, and so you do to his garment, and so you do to any lost thing of your brother’s, which is lost by him, and you have found it; you are not able to hide yourself.
4 Naar du ser din Broders Okse eller Æsel styrte paa Vejen, maa du ikke undlade at tage dig af dem, men du skal hjælpe ham med at faa dem op.
You do not see the donkey of your brother, or his ox, falling in the way, and have hid yourself from them; you certainly raise [them] up for him.
5 En Kvinde maa ikke bære Mandsdragt, og en Mand maa ikke iføre sig Kvindeklæder; thi enhver, der gør det, er HERREN din Gud en Vederstyggelighed.
Anything of a man is not on a woman, nor does a man put on the garment of a woman, for anyone doing these [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
6 Naar du paa din Vej træffer paa en Fuglerede i et Træ eller paa Jorden med Unger eller Æg, og Moderen ligger paa Ungerne eller Æggene, maa du ikke tage Moderen sammen med Ungerne;
When a bird’s nest comes before you in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, [with] brood or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the brood or on the eggs, you do not take the mother with the young ones;
7 Ungerne kan du tage, men Moderen skal du lade flyve, for at det maa gaa dig vel og du maa faa et langt Liv.
you certainly send the mother away, and take the young ones for yourself, so that it is well with you and you have prolonged days.
8 Naar du bygger et nyt Hus, skal du sætte Rækværk om Taget, for at du ikke skal bringe Blodskyld over dit Hus, hvis nogen falder ned derfra.
When you build a new house, then you have made a parapet for your roof, and you do not put blood on your house when one falls from it.
9 Du maa ikke saa to Slags Sæd i din Vingaard, ellers hjemfalder det hele til Helligdommen, baade Sæden, du saaede, og Udbyttet af Vingaarden.
You do not sow your vineyard [with] two kinds [of seed], lest the fullness of the seed which you sow and the increase of the vineyard be separated.
10 Du maa ikke pløje med en Okse og et Æsel sammen.
You do not plow with an ox and with a donkey together.
11 Du maa ikke bære Tøj, som er vævet baade af Uld og Hør.
You do not put on mixed material, wool and linens together.
12 Du skal sætte Kvaster i de fire Hjørner af din Kappe, som du hyller dig i.
You make fringes for yourself on the four skirts of your covering with which you cover [yourself].
13 Naar en Mand efter at have ægtet en Kvinde og søgt Samkvem med hende faar Uvilje imod hende
When a man takes a wife, and has gone in to her, and hated her,
14 og siger hende skammelige Ting paa og udspreder ondt Rygte om hende, idet han siger: »Jeg tog denne Kvinde til Ægte, men da jeg havde Samkvem med hende, fandt jeg ikke hos hende Tegnet paa, at hun var Jomfru!«
and laid evil deeds of words against her, and brought out an evil name against her, and said, I have taken this woman, and I draw near to her, and I have not found proofs of virginity in her;
15 saa skal den unge Kvindes Forældre bringe Jomfrutegnet hen til Byens Ældste i Byporten;
then the father of the girl, and her mother, have taken and brought out the girl’s proofs of virginity to [the] elderly of the city in the gate,
16 og Pigens Fader skal sige til de Ældste: »Jeg gav denne Mand min Datter til Hustru, men han har faaet Uvilje imod hende,
and the father of the girl has said to the elderly, I have given my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hates her;
17 og nu siger han hende skammelige Ting paa og siger: Jeg har ikke hos din Datter fundet Tegnet paa, at hun var Jomfru! Men her er Jomfrutegnet!« Og dermed skal de brede Klædet ud for Byens Ældste.
and behold, he has laid evil deeds of words, saying, I have not found proofs of virginity for your daughter—and these [are] the proofs of virginity of my daughter! And they have spread out the garment before [the] elderly of the city.
18 Da skal Byens Ældste tage Manden og revse ham;
And [the] elderly of that city have taken the man, and discipline him,
19 og de skal paalægge ham en Bøde paa hundrede Sekel Sølv og give den unge Kvindes Fader dem, fordi han udspredte ondt Rygte om en Jomfru i Israel. Og han skal beholde hende som Hustru og har ikke Lov til at skille sig fra hende, saa længe han lever.
and fined him one hundred pieces of silver, and given [them] to the father of the girl, because he has brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she is to him for a wife—he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
20 Men hvis Beskyldningen er sand, hvis den unge Kvindes Jomfrutegn ikke findes,
And if this thing has been truth—proofs of virginity have not been found for the girl—
21 skal man føre hende hen foran hendes Faders Husdør, og Mændene i hendes By skal stene hende til Døde, fordi hun har begaaet en Udaad i Israel ved at bedrive Hor i sin Faders Hus. Saaledes skal du udrydde det onde af din Midte.
then they have brought out the girl to the opening of her father’s house, and the men of her city have stoned her with stones and she has died, for she has done folly in Israel, to go whoring [in] her father’s house; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
22 Naar en Mand gribes i Samleje med en gift Kvinde, skal de begge dø, baade Manden, der laa hos Kvinden, og Kvinden selv. Saaledes skal du udrydde det onde af Israel.
When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them have died—the man who is lying with the woman, and the woman; and you have put away evil out of Israel.
23 Naar en Mand inde i Byen træffer en Jomfru, der er trolovet med en anden, og har Samleje med hende,
When there is a girl, a virgin, betrothed to a man, and a man has found her in a city and lain with her,
24 skal I føre dem begge ud til Byens Port og stene dem til Døde, Pigen fordi hun ikke skreg om Hjælp i Byen, og Manden, fordi han krænkede sin Næstes Brud. Saaledes skal du udrydde det onde af din Midte.
then you have brought them both out to the gate of that city, and stoned them with stones, and they have died: the girl, because that she has not cried in a city; and the man, because that he has humbled his neighbor’s wife; and you have put away evil out of your midst.
25 Men hvis Manden træffer den trolovede Pige ude i det fri og tiltvinger sig Samleje med hende, skal kun Manden, der havde Samleje med hende, dø.
And if the man finds the girl who is betrothed in a field, and the man has laid hold on her, and lain with her, then the man who has lain with her has died alone;
26 Pigen derimod skal du ikke gøre noget; hun har ikke begaaet nogen Synd, som fortjener Døden; thi dermed er det, som naar en overfalder sin Næste og slaar ham ihjel;
and you do not do anything to the girl—the girl has no deadly sin; for as a man rises against his neighbor and has murdered him, [taking] a life, so [is] this thing;
27 han traf hende jo ude i det fri, og den trolovede Pige skreg, men ingen kom hende til Hjælp.
for he found her in a field, [and when] she has cried—the girl who is betrothed—then she has no savior.
28 Naar en Mand træffer en Jomfru, der ikke er trolovet, og tiltvinger sig Samleje med hende, og de gribes paa fersk Gerning,
When a man finds a girl, a virgin who is not betrothed, and has caught her, and lain with her, and they have been found,
29 skal den Mand, der havde Samleje med hende, give Pigens Fader halvtredsindstyve Sekel Sølv og tage hende til Ægte, fordi han krænkede hende; og han har ikke Ret til at skille sig fra hende, saa længe han lever.
then the man who is lying with her has given fifty pieces of silver to the father of the girl, and she is to him for a wife; because that he has humbled her, he is not able to send her away [for] all his days.
30 Ingen maa ægte sin Faders Hustru eller løfte sin Faders Tæppe.
A man does not take his father’s wife, nor uncover his father’s skirt.”
