< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 If there be a controversy between men, and they resort to judgment, and they judge [their case]; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
मानिसहरूका बिचमा झैझगडा भयो र तिनीहरू अदालतमा गए भने न्यायकर्ताहरूले तिनीहरूको न्याय गरून् अनि धर्मीलाई छाडिदिएर दुष्‍टलाई दोषी ठहराऊन् ।
2 And it shall be if the wicked man have deserved to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and be beaten before his face, according to the measure of his wickedness with a certain number [of stripes].
दोषी मानिसले पिटाइ खानुपर्छ भने न्याकर्ताले त्यसलाई लम्पसार पर्न लगाएर न्यायकर्ताको उपस्थितिमा त्यसको अपराधअनुसार त्यसलाई कोर्रा हानोस् ।
3 With forty [stripes] shall they beat him; they shall not exceed, lest, if they continue to beat him with many stripes above these, thy brother become despicable in thine eyes.
न्यायकर्ताले त्यसलाई चालिस कोर्रा लगाउन सक्छ, तर त्यसभन्दा बढीचाहिँ होइन । किनकि त्यसभन्दा बढी कोर्रा लगाए तिमीहरूको इस्राएली भाइ तिमीहरूको दृष्‍टिमा अपमानित हुने छ ।
4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the corn].
दाइँ गर्दा गोरुलाई महला नलागाओ ।
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not marry a stranger abroad: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him as wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
सँगसँगै बसेका दाजुभाइमध्ये कुनै छोरो नजन्माई एउटाको मृत्यु भयो भने मरेको मानिसकी पत्‍नीलाई परिवारभन्दा बाहिर विवाहको लागि नदिइयोस् । बरु, मर्नेको दाजु वा भाइले त्यसलाई आफ्नी पत्‍नी तुल्याओस्, र मृत लोग्‍नेको दाजु वा भाइले आफ्नो कर्तव्य पुरा गरोस् ।
6 And it shall be, that the firstborn that she beareth shall stand in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name be not blotted out from Israel.
स्‍त्रीले जन्माउने पहिलो छोरोलाई मरेको व्यक्तिको नाउँ दिइयोस् ताकि त्यसको नाउँ इस्राएलबाट नमेटियोस् ।
7 But if the man like not to take his brother's wife, his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel: he will not perform for me the duty of a husband's brother.
तर देवरले आफ्नी भाउजुलाई राख्‍ने इच्छा गरेन भने मुल ढोकामा गई भाउजुले धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई यसो भनोस्, 'मेरो देवरले इस्राएलमा त्यसको दाजुको नाउँ राख्‍न इन्कार गर्छ । त्यसले मसित देवरले गर्नुपर्ने कर्तव्य गर्दैन ।'
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak unto him; and if he stand to it and say, I like not to take her;
तब त्यसको सहरका धर्म-गुरुहरूले त्यसलाई बोलाएर त्यससित कुराकानी गरून् । तर त्यसले 'म भाउजुलाई राख्‍न चाहन्‍नँ' भनी जिद्दी गर्‍यो भने
9 then shall his brother's wife come near to him before the eyes of the elders, and draw his sandal from his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that will not build up his brother's house.
भाउजु धर्म-गुरुहरूको उपस्थितिमा देवरकहाँ आई उसले त्यसको खुट्टाबाट जुत्ता फुकालेर त्यसको मुखमा थुकिदेओस् । भाउजुले यसो भनोस्, 'आफ्नो दाजुको घर निर्माण नगर्ने मानिसलाई यसै गरिन्छ ।'
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe drawn off.
इस्राएलमा त्यसको नाउँलाई 'जुत्ता फुकालिएको घर' भनिने छ ।
11 When men fight together one with another, and the wife of the one come near to rescue her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and stretch out her hand, and seize him by his secret parts,
मानिसहरू एक-अर्कासित झगदा गर्दा एक जनाकी पत्‍नी आएर आफ्नो पतिलाई बचाउन विरोधीको गुप्‍ताङ्ग अँठ्याई भने
12 thou shalt cut off her hand; thine eye shall not spare.
त्यसको हात काटिदिनू । त्यसलाई नटिठ्याउनू ।
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
तिमीहरूले आफ्नो झोलामा एउटै तौलको लागि कम र ज्यादा ओजन भएका ढकहरू नराख्‍नू ।
14 Thou shalt not have in thy house divers ephahs, a great and a small.
तिमीहरूको घरमा पनि एउटै नापको लागि फरक किसिमका माना-पाथी नहोऊन् ।
15 A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just ephah shalt thou have; that thy days may be prolonged in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
तिमीहरूसित सिद्ध र ठिक तौलका ढकसातै माना-पाथीहरू हुनुपर्छ ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुने देशमा तिमीहरूका आयु लामो होस् ।
16 For every one that doeth such things, every one that doeth unrighteousness, is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
किनकि यस्ता कुराहरू गर्ने अर्थात् बेइमानीपूर्वक काम गर्ने सबै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको लागि घृणित हुन् ।
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt;
तिमीहरू मिश्रबाट आउँदा बाटोमा अमालेकीहरूले गरेको कुरो याद राख्‍नू ।
18 how he met thee on the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all the feeble that lagged behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary, and he feared not God.
तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई बाटोमा भेटे र थाकेर हैरान भएकाहरू सबैलाई तिनीहरूले आक्रमण गरे । तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरको आदर गरेनन् ।
19 And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall have given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens; thou shalt not forget it.
त्यसकारण, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अधिकार गर्ने देशमा ल्याउनुहुँदा तिमीहरूका वरिपरि भएका तिमीहरूका सबै शत्रुबाट तिमीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुभएपछि आकाशमुनि अमालेकीहरूको नाउँनिशानै मेटिदिन नभुल्नू ।
