< Deuteronomy 25 >
1 If there be a controversy between men, and they call upon the judges: they shall give the prize of justice to him whom they perceive to be just: and him whom they find to be wicked, they shall condemn of wickedness.
मानिसहरूका बिचमा झैझगडा भयो र तिनीहरू अदालतमा गए भने न्यायकर्ताहरूले तिनीहरूको न्याय गरून् अनि धर्मीलाई छाडिदिएर दुष्टलाई दोषी ठहराऊन् ।
2 And if they see that the offender be worthy of stripes: they shall lay him down, and shall cause him to be beaten before them. According to the measure of the sin shall the measure also of the stripes be:
दोषी मानिसले पिटाइ खानुपर्छ भने न्याकर्ताले त्यसलाई लम्पसार पर्न लगाएर न्यायकर्ताको उपस्थितिमा त्यसको अपराधअनुसार त्यसलाई कोर्रा हानोस् ।
3 Yet so, that they exceed not the number of forty: lest thy brother depart shamefully torn before thy 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 that treadeth out thy corn on the floor.
दाइँ गर्दा गोरुलाई महला नलागाओ ।
5 When brethren dwell together, and one of them dieth without children, the wife of the deceased shall not marry to another: but his brother shall take her, and raise up seed for his brother:
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 the first son he shall have of her he shall call by his name, that his name be not abolished out of Israel.
स्त्रीले जन्माउने पहिलो छोरोलाई मरेको व्यक्तिको नाउँ दिइयोस् ताकि त्यसको नाउँ इस्राएलबाट नमेटियोस् ।
7 But if he will not take his brother’s wife, who by law belongeth to him, the woman shall go to the gate of the city, and call upon the ancients, and say: My husband’s brother refuseth to raise up his brother’s name in Israel: and will not take me to wife.
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 And they shall cause him to be sent for forthwith, and shall ask him. If he answer: I will not take her to wife:
तब त्यसको सहरका धर्म-गुरुहरूले त्यसलाई बोलाएर त्यससित कुराकानी गरून् । तर त्यसले 'म भाउजुलाई राख्न चाहन्नँ' भनी जिद्दी गर्यो भने
9 The woman shall come to him before the ancients, and shall take off his shoe from his foot, and spit in his face, and say: So shall it be done to 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 the unshod.
इस्राएलमा त्यसको नाउँलाई 'जुत्ता फुकालिएको घर' भनिने छ ।
11 If two men have words together, and one begin to fight against the other, and the other’s wife willing to deliver her husband out of the hand of the stronger, shall put forth her hand, and take him by the secrets,
मानिसहरू एक-अर्कासित झगदा गर्दा एक जनाकी पत्नी आएर आफ्नो पतिलाई बचाउन विरोधीको गुप्ताङ्ग अँठ्याई भने
12 Thou shalt cut off her hand, neither shalt thou be moved with any pity in her regard.
त्यसको हात काटिदिनू । त्यसलाई नटिठ्याउनू ।
13 Thou shalt not have divers weights in thy bag, a greater and a less:
तिमीहरूले आफ्नो झोलामा एउटै तौलको लागि कम र ज्यादा ओजन भएका ढकहरू नराख्नू ।
14 Neither shall there be in thy house a greater bushel and a less.
तिमीहरूको घरमा पनि एउटै नापको लागि फरक किसिमका माना-पाथी नहोऊन् ।
15 Thou shalt have a just and a true weight, and thy bushel shall be equal and true: that thou mayest live a long time upon the land which the Lord thy God shall give thee.
तिमीहरूसित सिद्ध र ठिक तौलका ढकसातै माना-पाथीहरू हुनुपर्छ ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुने देशमा तिमीहरूका आयु लामो होस् ।
16 For the Lord thy God abhorreth him that doth these things, and he hateth all injustice.
किनकि यस्ता कुराहरू गर्ने अर्थात् बेइमानीपूर्वक काम गर्ने सबै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको लागि घृणित हुन् ।
17 Remember what Amalec did to thee in the way when thou camest out of Egypt:
तिमीहरू मिश्रबाट आउँदा बाटोमा अमालेकीहरूले गरेको कुरो याद राख्नू ।
18 How he met thee: and slew the hindmost of the army, who sat down, being weary, when thou wast spent with hunger and labour, and he feared not God.
तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई बाटोमा भेटे र थाकेर हैरान भएकाहरू सबैलाई तिनीहरूले आक्रमण गरे । तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको आदर गरेनन् ।
19 Therefore when the Lord thy God shall give thee rest, and shall have subdued all the nations round about in the land which he hath promised thee: thou shalt blot out his name from under heaven. See thou forget it not.
त्यसकारण, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अधिकार गर्ने देशमा ल्याउनुहुँदा तिमीहरूका वरिपरि भएका तिमीहरूका सबै शत्रुबाट तिमीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुभएपछि आकाशमुनि अमालेकीहरूको नाउँनिशानै मेटिदिन नभुल्नू ।
