Deuteronomy 23
1 None that is hurt by bursting, or that hath his priuie member cut off, shall enter into the Congregation of the Lord.
凡外腎受傷或被閹割的人，不得進入上主的集會。
2 A bastard shall not enter into the Congregation of the Lord: euen to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the Congregation of the Lord.
私生子不得進入上主的集會；他的後代即便到了第十代，也不得進入上主的集會。
3 The Ammonites and the Moabites shall not enter into the Congregation of the Lord: euen to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the Congregation of the Lord for euer,
阿孟人和摩阿布人不得進入上主的集會；他們的後代，即便到第十代，也永不得進入上主的集會；
4 Because they met you not with bread and water in the way, when yee came out of Egypt, and because they hyred against thee Balaam the sonne of Beor, of Pethor in Aram-naharaim, to curse thee.
因為當你們出離埃及時，他們沒有帶食物和水，在路上前來迎接你們；又因他們從美索不達米亞的培托爾，雇了貝熬爾的兒子巴郎來咒罵你；
5 Neuerthelesse, the Lord thy God would not hearken vnto Balaam, but the Lord thy God turned the curse to a blessing vnto thee, because the Lord thy God loued thee.
但是上主你的天主不但不願聽從巴郎，上主你的天主反而將咒罵變為你的祝福，因為上主你的天主愛你。
6 Thou shalt not seeke their peace nor their prosperitie all thy dayes for euer.
你一生永遠不要為他們謀安寧和幸福。
7 Thou shalt not abhorre an Edomite: for he is thy brother, neither shalt thou abhorre an Egyptian, because thou wast a strager in his land.
你不可憎恨厄東人，因為他是你的兄弟；也不可憎恨埃及人，因為你曾在他們國內做過僑民。
8 The children that are begotten of them in their thirde generation, shall enter into the Congregation of the Lord.
他們所生的子孫到了第三代，即能進入上主的集會。
9 When thou goest out with the host against thine enemies, keepe thee then from all wickednesse.
幾時你出征紮營，攻打你的仇敵，應避免一切惡事。
10 If there be among you any that is vncleane by that which commeth to him by night, he shall goe out of the hoste, and shall not enter into the hoste,
你中間如有人夜間夢遺，即成為不潔，應走出營外，不可進入營內；
11 But at euen he shall wash him selfe with water, and when the sunne is downe, he shall enter into the hoste.
傍晚時，應用水洗澡，日落時，才能進營。
12 Thou shalt haue a place also without the hoste whither thou shalt resort,
在營外應有廁所，你應去那裏便溺。
13 And thou shalt haue a paddle among thy weapons, and when thou wouldest sit downe without, thou shalt shalt digge therewith, and returning thou shalt couer thine excrements.
在你的武器中；應有一把鏟；當你在外便溺時，用它來掘坑，然後用以剷土掩蓋糞便。
14 For the Lord thy God walketh in the mids of thy campe to deliuer thee, and to giue thee thine enemies before thee: therefore thine hoste shalbe holy, that he see no filthie thing in thee and turne away from thee.
因為上主你的天主在你營中往來，為救護你，將你的仇人交給你，所以你的營地應當聖潔，免得他在你那裏見到討厭的事，而離棄你。
15 Thou shalt not deliuer the seruant vnto his master, which is escaped from his master vnto thee.
凡由主人逃到你這裏來的奴僕，你不應將他交給他的主人；
16 He shall dwell with thee, euen among you, in what place he shall chuse, in one of thy cities where it liketh him best: thou shalt not vexe him.
他應在你中間與你同住，住在他自己所選的地方，住在他喜歡的一座城內；你不可欺負他。
17 There shalbe no whore of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a whore keeper of the sonnes of Israel.
以色列婦女中不可有人當廟妓，以色列男人中亦不可有人作廟倡。
18 Thou shalt neyther bring the hyre of a whore, nor the price of a dogge into the house of the Lord thy God for any vow: for euen both these are abomination vnto the Lord thy God.
你不可賣淫的酬金和賣狗的代價，帶到上主你天主的殿內，還任何誓願，因為這兩樣於上主你的天主都是可憎惡的。
19 Thou shalt not giue to vsurie to thy brother: as vsurie of money, vsurie of meate, vsurie of any thing that is put to vsurie.
借給你兄弟銀錢、食物，或任何能生利之物，你不可取利。
20 Vnto a stranger thou mayest lend vpon vsurie, but thou shalt not lend vpon vsurie vnto thy brother, that the Lord thy God may blesse thee in all that thou settest thine hand to, in the land whither thou goest to possesse it.
對外方人你可取利，對你兄弟卻不可取利，好使上主你的天主在你要去佔領的地上，祝福你進行的一切事業。
21 When thou shalt vowe a vowe vnto the Lord thy God, thou shalt not be slacke to paye it: for the Lord thy God will surely require it of thee, and so it should be sinne vnto thee.
幾時你向上主你的天主許願，不要遲延還願，因為上主你的天主必向你追討，你就不免有罪了。
22 But when thou absteinest from vowing, it shalbe no sinne vnto thee.
如果你不許願，你就沒有罪。
23 That which is gone out of thy lippes, thou shalt keepe and performe, as thou hast vowed it willingly vnto the Lord thy God: for thou hast spoken it with thy mouth.
凡你口中說出來的，你應遵守；凡你親口說出向上主你的天主所許的願，你應執行。
24 When thou commest vnto thy neighbours vineyard, then thou mayest eate grapes at thy pleasure, as much as thou wilt: but thou shalt put none in thy vessell.
幾時你進入你鄰人的葡萄園，你可隨意摘食葡萄，可以吃飽，但不可裝入你的器皿內。
25 When thou commest into thy neighbours corne thou mayest plucke the eares with thine hand, but thou shalt not moue a sickle to thy neighbours corne.
幾時你進入你鄰人的麥田，可以伸手摘麥穗，但不可在你鄰人的麥田內動鐮刀。
