Deuteronomy 23
1 “No one wounded, bruised, or cut in the genitals enters into the assembly of YHWH;
凡外腎受傷或被閹割的人，不得進入上主的集會。
2 a bastard does not enter into the assembly of YHWH; even a tenth generation of him does not enter into the assembly of YHWH.
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 An Ammonite and a Moabite do not enter into the assembly of YHWH; even a tenth generation of them do not enter into the assembly of YHWH—for all time,
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 that they have not come before you with bread and with water in the way, in your coming out from Egypt, and because he has hired against you Balaam son of Beor, of Pethor of Aram-Naharaim, to revile you;
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 and your God YHWH has not been willing to listen to Balaam, and your God YHWH turns the reviling to a blessing for you, because your God YHWH has loved you;
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 you do not seek their peace and their good all your days—for all time.
你一生永遠不要為他們謀安寧和幸福。
7 You do not detest an Edomite, for he [is] your brother; you do not detest an Egyptian, for you have been a sojourner 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 sons who are begotten of them, a third generation of them, enter into the assembly of YHWH.
他們所生的子孫到了第三代，即能進入上主的集會。
9 When a camp goes out against your enemies, then you have kept from every evil thing.
幾時你出征紮營，攻打你的仇敵，應避免一切惡事。
10 When there is a man who is not clean in you, from an accident at night, then he has gone out to the outside of the camp; he does not come into the midst of the camp;
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 and it has been, at the turning of the evening, he bathes with water, and at the going in of the sun he comes into the midst of the camp.
傍晚時，應用水洗澡，日落時，才能進營。
12 And you have a station at the outside of the camp, and you have gone out there outside;
在營外應有廁所，你應去那裏便溺。
13 and you have a peg on your staff, and it has been, in your sitting outside, that you have dug with it, and turned back, and covered your filth.
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 your God YHWH is walking up and down in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and to give your enemies before you, and your camp has been holy, and He does not see the nakedness of anything in you, and has turned back from after you.
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 You do not shut up a servant to his lord, who escapes to you from his lord;
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 dwells with you in your midst, in the place which he chooses within one of your gates, where it is pleasing to him; you do not oppress 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 is not a whore among the daughters of Israel, nor is there a whoremonger among the sons 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 you do not bring the wage of a whore or the price of a dog into the house of your God YHWH for any vow; for even both of them [are] an abomination [to] your God YHWH.
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 You do not lend in usury to your brother—usury of money, usury of food, usury of anything which is lent on usury.
借給你兄弟銀錢、食物，或任何能生利之物，你不可取利。
20 You may lend in usury to a stranger, but you do not lend in usury to your brother, so that your God YHWH blesses you in every putting forth of your hand on the land to where you go in to possess 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 you vow a vow to your God YHWH, you do not delay to complete it; for your God YHWH certainly requires it from you, lest it has been sin in you.
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 And when you refrain to vow, it is not sin in you.
如果你不許願，你就沒有罪。
23 You keep and have done the utterance of your lips, as you have vowed to your God YHWH, a free-will offering which you have spoken with your 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 you come into the vineyard of your neighbor, then you have eaten grapes according to your desire, your sufficiency, but you do not put [any] into your vessel.
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 you come in among the standing grain of your neighbor, then you have plucked the ears with your hand, but you do not wave a sickle over the standing grain of your neighbor.”
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。
