Deuteronomy 22
1 “If you see some Israeli’s ox or sheep that has strayed away, do not act as though you did not see it. Take it back [to its owner].
汝の兄弟の牛または羊の迷ひをるを見てこれを見すて置べからず必ずこれを汝の兄弟に牽ゆきて歸すべし
2 But if the owner does not live near you, or if you do not know who the owner is, take the animal to your house. [It can stay with you] until the owner comes, searching for it. Then you must give the animal to him.
汝の兄弟もし汝に近からざるか又は汝かれを知ざる時はこれを汝の家に牽ゆきて汝の許におき汝の兄弟の尋ねきたるに及びて之を彼に還すべし
3 You must do the same thing if you see a donkey, or a piece of clothing, or anything else that someone has lost. Do not refuse to do what you should do.
汝の兄弟の驢馬におけるも是のごとく爲しまたその衣服におけるも斯なすべし凡て汝の兄弟の失ひたる遺失物を得たる時も汝かく爲べし之を見すておくべからず
4 “And if you see a fellow Israeli’s donkey or cow that has fallen down on the road, do not act as though you did not see it. Help the owner to lift the animal up [so that it can stand on its feet again].
また汝の兄弟の驢馬または牛の途に踣れをるを見て見すておくべからず必ずこれを助け起すべし
5 “Women must not wear men’s clothes, and men must not wear women’s clothes. Yahweh our God hates people who do things like that.
女は男の衣服を纒ふべからずまた男は女の衣裳を著べからず凡て斯する者は汝の神ヱホバこれを憎みたまふなり
6 “If you happen to find a bird’s nest in a tree or on the ground, and the mother bird is sitting in the nest on its eggs or with the baby birds, do not take the mother bird [and kill it].
汝鳥の巣の路の頭または樹の上または土の上にあるを見んに雛または卵その中にありて母鳥その雛または卵の上に伏をらばその母鳥を雛とともに取べからず
7 You are permitted to take the baby birds, but you must allow the mother bird to fly away. Do this in order that things will go well for you and that you will live for a long time.
かならずその母鳥を去しめ唯その雛のみをとるべし然せば汝福祉を獲かつ汝の日を永うすることを得ん
8 “If you build a new house, you must put a (railing/low wall) around the edge of the roof. If you do that, and if someone falls off the roof [and dies], (you will not be guilty of causing that person to die/his death [MTY] will not be your fault).
汝新しき家を建る時はその屋蓋の周圍に欄杆を設くべし是は人その上より堕てこれが血の汝の家に歸すること無らんためなり
9 “Do not plant any crop in the area where your grapevines are growing. If you do, you are not allowed to harvest the crops that you have planted or to harvest the grapes [to make wine from them].
汝菓物園に異類の種を混て播べからず然せば汝が播たる種より產する物および汝の菓物園より出る菓物みな聖物とならん
10 “Do not hitch together an ox and a donkey [for plowing your fields].
汝牛と驢馬とを耦せて耕すことを爲べからず
11 “Do not wear clothing that is made by weaving together (wool and linen/two different kinds of thread).
汝毛と麻とをまじへたる衣服を著べからず
12 “[Twist threads together to] make tassels and sew/fasten them on the four bottom corners of your cloak.
汝が上に纒ふ衣服の裾の四方に繸をつくべし
13 “Suppose a man marries a young woman and has sex with her and later decides that he does not want her any more,
人もし妻を娶り之とともに寝て後これを嫌ひ
14 and he says false things about her, and claims that she was not a virgin when he married her.
我この婦人を娶りしが之と寝たる時にその處女なるを見ざりしと言て誹謗の辭抦を設けこれに惡き名を負せなば
15 If that happens, the young woman’s parents must take the sheet that was on the bed when that man and their daughter were married, which still has bloodstains on it, and show it to the elders of the city at the (gate of/central meeting place in) the city.
その女の父と母その女の處女なる證跡を取り門にをる邑の長老等にこれを差出し
16 Then the father of the young woman must say to the elders, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife. But now he says that he doesn’t want her any more.
而してその女の父長老等に言べし我この人にわが女子を與へて妻となさしめしにこの人これを嫌ひ
17 And he has falsely said that she was not a virgin when he married her. But look! Here is what proves that my daughter was a virgin! Look at the bloodstains on the sheet where they slept the night that they were married!’ And he will show the sheet to the elders.
誹謗の辭抦を設けて言ふ我なんぢの女子の處女なるを見ざりしと然るに吾女子の處女なりし證跡は此にありと斯いひてその父母かの布を邑の長老等の前に展べし
18 Then the elders of that city must take that man and whip him.
然る時は邑の長老等その人を執へてこれを鞭ち
19 They shall require that he pay a fine of 100 pieces of silver and give the money to the father of the young woman, because the man caused an Israeli young woman to be disgraced. Also, that woman must continue to live with him; she is his wife. He is not allowed to divorce her during the rest of his life.
又これに銀百シケルを罰してその女の父に償はしむべし其はイスラエルの處女に惡き名を負せたればなり斯てその人はこれを妻とすべし一生これを去ことを得ず
20 “But if what the man said is true, and there is nothing to prove that she was a virgin when he married her,
然どこの事もし眞にしてその女の處女なる證跡あらざる時は
21 they must take that young woman to the door of her father’s house. Then the men of that city must execute her by throwing stones at her. They must do that because she has done something in Israel that is very disgraceful, by having sex with some man [while she was still living] in her father’s house. By executing her like that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.
その女をこれが父の家の門に曳いだしその邑の人々石をもてこれを撃ころすべし其は彼その父の家にて淫なる事をなしてイスラエルの中に惡をおこなひたればなり汝かく惡事を汝らの中より除くべし
22 “If a man is caught while he is having sex with another man’s wife, both of them must be executed. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice in Israel.
もし夫に適し婦と寝る男あるを見ばその婦と寝たる男と其婦とをともに殺し斯して惡事をイスラエルの中より除くべし
23 “Suppose in some town a man sees a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married to another man, and he is caught having sex with [EUP] her.
處女なる婦人すでに夫に適の約をなせる後ある男これに邑の内に遇てこれを犯さば
24 You must take both of them to the (gate of/central meeting place in) that town. There you must execute them both by throwing stones at them. You must execute the young woman because she did not shout for help even though she was in the town. And the man must be executed because he had sex [EUP] with someone who was already engaged/promised to be married. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil practice among you.
汝らその二人を邑の門に曳いだし石をもてこれを撃ころすべし是その女は邑の内にありながら叫ぶことをせざるに因りまたその男はその鄰の妻を辱しめたるに因てなり汝かく惡事を汝らの中より除くべし
25 “But suppose out in the open countryside a man meets a young woman who is engaged/promised to be married, and he rapes her. If that happens, only that man must be executed.
然ど男もし人に適の約をなしし女に野にて遇ひこれを強て犯すあらば之を犯しし男のみを殺すべし
26 You must not punish the young woman, because she did not do anything for which she deserves to be executed. This case is like when one man attacks another man [in the countryside] and murders him,
その女には何をも爲べからず女には死にあたる罪なし人その鄰人に起むかひてこれを殺せるとその事おなじ
27 because the man who raped her saw her when she was in the open countryside, and even though she called out for help, there was no one there who could rescue her.
其は男野にてこれに遇たるが故にその人に適の約をなしし女叫びたれども拯ふ者なかりしなり
28 “If a man rapes a young woman who is not engaged/promised to be married, if someone sees him while he is doing that,
男もし未だ人に適の約をなさざる處女なる婦に遇ひこれを執へて犯すありてその二人見あらはされなば
29 that man must pay 50 pieces of silver to the young woman’s father, and he must marry her, because he forced her to have sex with him. He is not allowed to divorce her for the rest of his life.
これを犯せる男その女の父に銀五十シケルを與へて之を己の妻とすべし彼その女を辱しめたれば一生これを去るべからざるなり
30 “man must not disgrace his father by having sex with any of his father’s wives.”
人その父の妻を娶るべからずその父の被を掀開べからず
