Deuteronomy 22

1 Thou shalt not see the ox of thy brother or his sheep, going astray, and turn away from them, —thou shalt, bring them back unto thy brother.

١ «لَا تَنْظُرْ ثَوْرَ أَخِيكَ أَوْ شَاتَهُ شَارِدًا وَتَتَغَاضَى عَنْهُ، بَلْ تَرُدُّهُ إِلَى أَخِيكَ لَا مَحَالَةَ.

2 And, if thy brother be not nigh unto thee or thou know him not, then shalt thou make room for it within thee own shed and it shall be with thee, until thy brother seek after it, when thou shalt return it unto him.

٢ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَخُوكَ قَرِيبًا مِنْكَ أَوْ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهُ، فَضُمَّهُ إِلَى دَاخِلِ بَيْتِكَ. وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَكَ حَتَّى يَطْلُبَهُ أَخُوكَ، حِينَئِذٍ تَرُدُّهُ إِلَيْهِ.

3 And, so, shalt thou do with his ass, and, so, shalt thou do with his mantle and, so, shalt thou do with any lost thing of thy brother’s, which shall go astray from him and thou shalt find, —thou mayest not turn away.

٣ وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِحِمَارِهِ، وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِثِيَابِهِ، وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ بِكُلِّ مَفْقُودٍ لِأَخِيكَ يُفْقَدُ مِنْهُ وَتَجِدُهُ. لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَتَغَاضَى.

4 Thou shalt not see the ass of thy brother or his ox fallen in the way, and turn away from them, —thou shalt, raise, them with him.

٤ لَا تَنْظُرْ حِمَارَ أَخِيكَ أَوْ ثَوْرَهُ وَاقِعًا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَتَتَغَافَلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ تُقِيمُهُ مَعَهُ لَا مَحَالَةَ.

5 A woman shall not have on the wearing apparel of a man, nor shall a man put on the mantle of a woman; for an abomination to Yahweh thy God, is any one who doeth these things.

٥ «لَا يَكُنْ مَتَاعُ رَجُلٍ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةٍ، وَلَا يَلْبَسْ رَجُلٌ ثَوْبَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ ذَلِكَ مَكْرُوهٌ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ.

6 When a bird’s-nest chanceth to be before thee, —in the way, in any tree or upon the ground, whether with nestlings or eggs, and, the mother, be sitting upon the nestlings or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the mother upon the young;

٦ «إِذَا ٱتَّفَقَ قُدَّامَكَ عُشُّ طَائِرٍ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ فِي شَجَرَةٍ مَّا أَوْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فِيهِ فِرَاخٌ أَوْ بَيْضٌ، وَٱلْأُمُّ حَاضِنَةٌ ٱلْفِرَاخَ أَوِ ٱلْبَيْضَ، فَلَا تَأْخُذِ ٱلْأُمَّ مَعَ ٱلْأَوْلَادِ.

7 thou shalt, let go, the mother, and then, her young, mayest thou take for thyself, —that it may go well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.

٧ أَطْلِقِ ٱلْأُمَّ وَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱلْأَوْلَادَ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ خَيْرٌ وَتُطِيلَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ.

8 When thou buildest a new house, then shalt thou make a parapet to thy roof, so shalt thou not treasure up blood-guiltiness against thy house, for he that is in danger of falling might fall therefrom.

٨ «إِذَا بَنَيْتَ بَيْتًا جَدِيدًا، فَٱعْمَلْ حَائِطًا لِسَطْحِكَ لِئَلَّا تَجْلِبَ دَمًا عَلَى بَيْتِكَ إِذَا سَقَطَ عَنْهُ سَاقِطٌ.

9 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with two sorts of seed, —lest the fulness of the seed which thou sowest, and the increase of thy vineyard be profaned.

٩ «لَا تَزْرَعْ حَقْلَكَ صِنْفَيْنِ، لِئَلَّا يَتَقَدَّسَ ٱلْمِلْءُ: ٱلزَّرْعُ ٱلَّذِي تَزْرَعُ وَمَحْصُولُ ٱلْحَقْلِ.

10 Thou shalt not plough with an ox and an ass together,

١٠ لَا تَحْرُثْ عَلَى ثَوْرٍ وَحِمَارٍ مَعًا.

11 Thou shalt not put on linsey-woolsey, of wool and flax together.

١١ لَا تَلْبَسْ ثَوْبًا مُخْتَلَطًا صُوفًا وَكَتَّانًا مَعًا.

12 Tassels, shalt thou make thee, —on the four corners of thy vesture, wherewith thou dost cover thyself.

١٢ «اِعْمَلْ لِنَفْسِكَ جَدَائِلَ عَلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَطْرَافِ ثَوْبِكَ ٱلَّذِي تَتَغَطَّى بِهِ.

13 When a man taketh a wife, —and goeth in unto her and hateth her;

١٣ «إِذَا ٱتَّخَذَ رَجُلٌ ٱمْرَأَةً وَحِينَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبْغَضَهَا،

14 and raiseth against her occasions of speech, and bringeth upon her an evil name, and saith—This woman, I took, and approached her, and found not that she had the tokens of virginity,

١٤ وَنَسَبَ إِلَيْهَا أَسْبَابَ كَلَامٍ، وَأَشَاعَ عَنْهَا ٱسْمًا رَدِيًّا، وَقَالَ: هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱتَّخَذْتُهَا وَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْهَا لَمْ أَجِدْ لَهَا عُذْرَةً.

15 then shall the father of the damsel and her mother take and bring forth the tokens of the virginity of the damsel, unto the elders of the city, in the gate;

١٥ يَأْخُذُ ٱلْفَتَاةَ أَبُوهَا وَأُمُّهَا وَيُخْرِجَانِ عَلَامَةَ عُذْرَتِهَا إِلَى شُيُوخِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى ٱلْبَابِ،

16 and the father of the damsel shall say unto the elders, —My daughter, gave I unto this man to wife and he hated her;

١٦ وَيَقُولُ أَبُو ٱلْفَتَاةِ لِلشُّيُوخِ: أَعْطَيْتُ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلَ ٱبْنَتِي زَوْجَةً فَأَبْغَضَهَا.

17 and lo! he, hath raised occasions of speech, saying—I found not that thy daughter had the tokens of virginity and yet, these, are the tokens of the virginity of my daughter. And they shall spread out the garment before the elders of the city.

١٧ وَهَا هُوَ قَدْ جَعَلَ أَسْبَابَ كَلَامٍ قَائِلًا: لَمْ أَجِدْ لِبِنْتِكَ عُذْرَةً. وَهَذِهِ عَلَامَةُ عُذْرَةِ ٱبْنَتِي. وَيَبْسُطَانِ ٱلثَّوْبَ أَمَامَ شُيُوخِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ.

18 Then shall the elders of that city take the man, and chastise him;

١٨ فَيَأْخُذُ شُيُوخُ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلرَّجُلَ وَيُؤَدِّبُونَهُ

19 and fine him a hundred [shekels] of silver and give unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought an evil name upon a virgin of Israel, and she shall remain his wife, he may not put her away, all his days.

١٩ وَيُغْرِمُونَهُ بِمِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَيُعْطُونَهَا لِأَبِي ٱلْفَتَاةِ، لِأَنَّهُ أَشَاعَ ٱسْمًا رَدِيًّا عَنْ عَذْرَاءَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَتَكُونُ لَهُ زَوْجَةً. لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِهِ.

20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found with the damsel,

٢٠ «وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ صَحِيحًا، لَمْ تُوجَدْ عُذْرَةٌ لِلْفَتَاةِ.

21 then shall they bring forth the damsel into the entrance of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die, because she hath wrought wickedness in Israel, by committing unchastity in her father’s house, —so shalt thou consume the wicked thing out of thy midst.

٢١ يُخْرِجُونَ ٱلْفَتَاةَ إِلَى بَابِ بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا، وَيَرْجُمُهَا رِجَالُ مَدِينَتِهَا بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ حَتَّى تَمُوتَ، لِأَنَّهَا عَمِلَتْ قَبَاحَةً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِزِنَاهَا فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ.

22 When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then shall, both, of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman, so shalt thou consume the wicked thing out of Israel.

٢٢ «إِذَا وُجِدَ رَجُلٌ مُضْطَجِعًا مَعَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ زَوْجَةِ بَعْلٍ، يُقْتَلُ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ: ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمُضْطَجِعُ مَعَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

23 When a damsel that is a virgin is betrothed to a husband, —and a man findeth her in the city, and lieth with her,

٢٣ «إِذَا كَانَتْ فَتَاةٌ عَذْرَاءُ مَخْطُوبَةً لِرَجُلٍ، فَوَجَدَهَا رَجُلٌ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا،

24 then shall ye bring them, both, out unto the gate of that city, and stone them with stones that they die, the damsel, because she made not an outcry in the city, and the man because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife, —so shalt thou consume the wicked thing out of thy midst.

٢٤ فَأَخْرِجُوهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا إِلَى بَابِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَٱرْجُمُوهُمَا بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ حَتَّى يَمُوتَا. ٱلْفَتَاةُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَصْرُخْ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَٱلرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ أَذَلَّ ٱمْرَأَةَ صَاحِبِهِ. فَتَنْزِعُ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ.

25 But if in the field, the man find the betrothed damsel and the man force her and lie with her, then shall the man that lay with her die he alone;

٢٥ وَلَكِنْ إِنْ وَجَدَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْفَتَاةَ ٱلْمَخْطُوبَةَ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَأَمْسَكَهَا ٱلرَّجُلُ وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا، يَمُوتُ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا وَحْدَهُ.

26 but, unto the damsel, shalt thou do nothing, the damsel, is not guilty of a sin worthy of death, for as when a man riseth up against his neighbour, and smiteth him so as to take away life, so, is this matter;

٢٦ وَأَمَّا ٱلْفَتَاةُ فَلَا تَفْعَلْ بِهَا شَيْئًا. لَيْسَ عَلَى ٱلْفَتَاةِ خَطِيَّةٌ لِلْمَوْتِ، بَلْ كَمَا يَقُومُ رَجُلٌ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ وَيَقْتُلُهُ قَتْلًا. هَكَذَا هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ.

27 for in the field, he found her, —the betrothed damsel, made an outcry, and there was none to save her.

٢٧ إِنَّهُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَجَدَهَا، فَصَرَخَتِ ٱلْفَتَاةُ ٱلْمَخْطُوبَةُ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَنْ يُخَلِّصُهَا.

28 When a man findeth a damsel that is a virgin who is not betrothed, and layeth hold of her and lieth with her, and they are found,

٢٨ «إِذَا وَجَدَ رَجُلٌ فَتَاةً عَذْرَاءَ غَيْرَ مَخْطُوبَةٍ، فَأَمْسَكَهَا وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا، فَوُجِدَا.

29 then shall the man who lay with her give unto the damsel’s father fifty shekels of silver, —and she shall be, his, wife, because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away, all his days.

٢٩ يُعْطِي ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا لِأَبِي ٱلْفَتَاةِ خَمْسِينَ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَتَكُونُ هِيَ لَهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَذَلَّهَا. لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَهَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِهِ.

30 A man shall not take his father’s wife, —neither shall he turn aside his father’s coverlet.

٣٠ «لَا يَتَّخِذْ رَجُلٌ ٱمْرَأَةَ أَبِيهِ، وَلَا يَكْشِفْ ذَيْلَ أَبِيهِ.
