Deuteronomy 24
1 And if any one should take a wife, and should dwell with her, then it shall come to pass if she should not have found favour before him, because he has found some unbecoming thing in her, that he shall write for her a bill of divorcement, and give it into her hands, and he shall send her away out of his house.
Cuando alguno tomare mujer y se casare con ella, si después no le agradare por haber hallado en ella alguna cosa torpe, le escribirá carta de repudio, y se la entregará en su mano, y la despedirá de su casa.
2 And [if] she should go away and be married to another man;
Y salida de su casa, podrá ir y casarse con otro varón.
3 and the last husband should hate her, and write for her a bill of divorcement; and should give it into her hands, and send her away out of his house, and the last husband should die, who took her to himself for a wife;
Y si la aborreciere el postrer varón, y le escribiere carta de repudio, y se la entregare en su mano, y la despidiere de su casa; o si muriere el postrer varón que la tomó para sí por mujer,
4 the former husband who sent her away shall not be able to return and take her to himself for a wife, after she has been defiled; because it is an abomination before the Lord your God, and you shall not defile the land, which the Lord your God gives you to inherit.
no podrá su primer marido, que la despidió, volverla a tomar para que sea su mujer, después que fue inmunda; porque es abominación delante del SEÑOR, y no contaminarás la tierra que el SEÑOR tu Dios te da por heredad.
5 And if any one should have recently taken a wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall any thing be laid upon him; he shall be free in his house; for one year he shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
Cuando tomare alguno mujer nueva, no saldrá a la guerra, ni en ninguna cosa se le ocupará; libre estará en su casa por un año, para alegrar a su mujer que tomó.
6 You shall not take for a pledge the under millstone, nor the upper millstone; for he who does so takes life for a pledge.
No tomarás en prenda la muela de molino, ni la de abajo ni la de arriba, porque sería prendar la vida.
7 And if a man should be caught stealing one of his brethren of the children of Israel, and having overcome him he should sell him, that thief shall die; so shall you remove that evil one from yourselves.
Cuando fuere hallado alguno que haya hurtado persona de sus hermanos los hijos de Israel, y hubiere mercadeado con ella, o la hubiere vendido, el tal ladrón morirá, y quitarás el mal de en medio de ti.
8 Take heed to yourself in [regard of] the plague of leprosy: you shall take great heed to do according to all the law, which the priests the Levites shall report to you; take heed to do, as I have charged you.
Guárdate de llaga de lepra, guardando diligentemente, y haciendo según todo lo que os enseñaren los sacerdotes levitas; cuidaréis de hacer como les he mandado.
9 Remember all that the Lord your God did to Mariam in the way, when you were going out of Egypt.
Acuérdate de lo que hizo el SEÑOR tu Dios a María en el camino, después que salisteis de Egipto.
10 If your neighbour owe you a debt, any debt whatever, you shall not go into his house to take his pledge:
Cuando dieres a tu prójimo alguna cosa prestada, no entrarás en su casa para tomarle prenda.
11 you shall stand without, and the man who is in your debt shall bring the pledge out to you.
Fuera estarás, y el hombre a quien prestaste, te sacará afuera la prenda.
12 And if the man be poor, you shall not sleep with his pledge.
Y si fuere hombre pobre, no duermas con su prenda.
13 You shall surely restore his pledge at sunset, and he shall sleep in his garment, and he shall bless you; and it shall be mercy to you before the Lord your God.
Sin falta le devolverás la prenda cuando el sol se ponga, para que duerma en su ropa, y te bendiga; y te será justicia delante del SEÑOR tu Dios.
14 You shall not unjustly withhold the wages of the poor and needy of your brethren, or of the strangers who are in your cities.
No hagas violencia al jornalero pobre y menesteroso, así de tus hermanos como de tus extranjeros que están en tu tierra en tus ciudades.
15 You shall pay him his wages the same day, the sun shall not go down upon it, because he is poor and he trusts in it; and he shall cry against you to the Lord, and it shall be sin in you.
En su día le darás su jornal, y el sol no se pondrá sobre él; pues es pobre, y con él sustenta su vida; para que no clame contra ti al SEÑOR, y sea en ti pecado.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, and the sons shall not be put to death for the fathers; every one shall be put to death for his own sin.
Los padres no morirán por los hijos, ni los hijos por los padres; cada uno morirá por su pecado.
17 You shall not wrest the judgement of the stranger and the fatherless, and widow; you shall not take the widow's garment for a pledge.
No torcerás el derecho del extranjero ni del huérfano; ni tomarás por prenda la ropa de la viuda;
18 And you shall remember that you were a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God redeemed you from thence; therefore I charge you to do this thing.
mas acuérdate que fuiste siervo en Egipto, y de allí te rescató el SEÑOR tu Dios; por tanto, yo te mando que hagas esto.
19 And when you shall have reaped corn in your field, and shall have forgotten a sheaf in your field, you shall not return to take it; it shall be for the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the works of your hands.
Cuando segares tu mies en tu tierra, y olvidares alguna gavilla en el campo, no volverás a tomarla; del extranjero, o del huérfano, o de la viuda será; para que te bendiga el SEÑOR tu Dios en toda obra de tus manos.
20 And if you should gather your olives, you shall not return to collect the remainder; it shall be for the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, and you shall remember that you were a bondman in the land of Egypt; therefore I command you to do this thing.
Cuando sacudieres tus olivas, no recorrerás las ramas tras ti; del extranjero, del huérfano, y de la viuda será.
21 And when soever you shall gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not glean what you have left; it shall be for the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow:
Cuando vendimiares tu viña, no rebuscarás tras ti; del extranjero, del huérfano, y de la viuda será.
22 and you shall remember that you were a bondman in the land of Egypt; therefore I command you to do this thing.
Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en tierra de Egipto; por tanto, yo te mando que hagas esto.
