< Deuteronomy 23 >

1 “Any man whose testicles are crushed or whose penis is cut off shall not be (included as one of/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people.
Saan a maibilang iti gimong ni Yahweh ti siasinoman a lalaki a nadadael wenno naputed ti mabagbagina.
2 “No (illegitimate person/person whose mother and father were not married), or descendant of that person, extending to the tenth generation, shall be included as one of Yahweh’s people.
Awan iti bastardo nga anak iti maibilang iti gimong ni Yahweh; agingga iti maikasangapulo a henerasion dagiti kaputotanna, awan kadakuada iti maibilang iti gimong ni Yahweh.
3 “No one from the Ammon or Moab people-groups shall be (included as one of/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people, extending to the tenth generation.
Saan a maibilang iti gimong ni Yahweh iti Ammonita wenno Moabita; agingga iti maikasangapulo a henerasion dagiti kaputotanna, awan kadakuada iti maibilang iti gimong ni Yahweh.
4 One reason is that their [leaders] refused to give your ancestors food and water when they were traveling from Egypt [to Canaan]. Another reason is that they wanted to pay Balaam, the son of Beor from Pethor [town] in Mesopotamia, to curse you Israelis.
Daytoy ket gapu ta saandakayo a sinabat iti dalan nga inyawatan iti tinapay ken danum idi rimmuarkayo iti Egipto, ken gapu ta tinangdananda a maibusor kadakayo ni Balaam nga anak ni Beor a taga-Peor idiay Aram Naharim a mangilunod kadakayo.
5 But Yahweh our God did not pay attention to Balaam; instead, he caused Balaam to bless your ancestors, because Yahweh loved them.
Ngem saan a dumngeg ni Yahweh a Diosyo kenni Balaam; ngem ketdi, pinagbalin ni Yahweh a Diosyo a bendision iti lunod para kadakayo, gapu ta ay-ayatennakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo.
6 As long as Israel is a nation, you must not do anything to cause things to go well for those two people-groups or enable them to prosper.
Nasken a saankayo nga agaramid ti aniaman a banag a mangted ti pagimbagan wenno pagrang-ayanda, bayat iti amin nga al-aldawyo.
7 “But do not despise anyone from the Edom people-group, because they are [descendants of your ancestor Jacob], just like you are. And do not despise people from Egypt, because [they treated your ancestors well when] they first lived in Egypt.
Nasken a saanyo a guraen ti maysa nga Edomita, ta padayo isuna nga Israelita; saanyo nga umsien iti maysa nga Egipcio, gapu ta ganggannaetkayo iti dagana.
8 The children and grandchildren of people from Edom and Egypt [who live among you] may be (included among/allowed to worship with) Yahweh’s people.”
Maibilangto iti gimong ni Yahweh dagiti kaputotan iti maikatlo a henerasion nga agtaud kadakuada.
9 “When your soldiers are living in tents at a time of fighting your enemies, they must avoid doing things that would make them unacceptable to God.
No makigubatkayo kadagiti kabusoryo a kas soldado, masapul ngarud nga a liklikanyo dagiti amin a dakes a banag.
10 If any soldier becomes unacceptable to God because semen comes out of his body during the night, [the next morning] he must go outside the camp and stay there during that day.
No adda kadakayo ti narugit gapu iti napasamak kenkuana iti rabii, masapul a rumuar isuna iti kampo ti armada; nasken a saan nga agsubli isuna iti uneg ti kampo.
11 But in the evening of that day, he must bathe himself, and at sunset he is allowed to come back into the camp.
Inton rumabii, nasken nga agdigus isuna; no lumnek ti init, agsublinto isuna iti uneg ti kampo.
12 “Your soldiers must have a toilet area outside the camp where you can go [when you need to].
Nasken nga adda met iti maysa a disso iti ruar ti kampo a papananyo;
13 [When you go to fight against your enemies], carry a stick along with your weapons, in order that when you need to defecate [EUP], you can dig a hole with the stick, and then cover up the hole [when you have finished defecating].
ken masapul nga adda iti maysa a banag kadagiti igamyo a pagkali; no agiblengkayo, masapul nga agkalikayo, kalpasanna gabburanyo met laeng ti inyeblengyo.
14 You must keep the camp acceptable to Yahweh our God, because he is with you in your camp to protect you and to enable you to defeat your enemies. Do not do anything disgraceful/indecent that would cause Yahweh to abandon you.”
Ta magmagna ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti tengnga ti kampoyo tapno pagballigiennakayo ken tapno ipaimana kadakayo dagiti kabusoryo. Nasken ngarud a nasantoan ti kampoyo, tapno awan ti makitana nga aniaman a narugit a banag kadakayo ket baybay-annakayo.
15 “If slaves who escape from their masters come to you [and request you to protect them], do not send them back to their masters.
Nasken a saanyo nga isubli ti tagabu a naglibas iti amona.
16 Allow them to stay/live among you, in whatever town they choose, and do not mistreat them.
Bay-anyo a makipagnaed isuna kadakayo, iti aniaman nga ili a pillienna. Saanyo nga idadanes isuna.
17 “Do not [allow] any Israeli man or woman [to] become a prostitute at the temple.
Nasken nga awan ti agbalin a balangkantis kadagiti annak a babai ti Israel, wenno agbalin a balangkantis kadagiti annak a lalaki ti Israel.
18 Also, do not allow any people who earned money from being a prostitute to bring any of that money into the temple of Yahweh our God, even if they solemnly promised to pay that money to Yahweh. Yahweh hates those who are prostitutes.
Nasken a saanyo nga ipan dagiti tangdan ti babai a balangkantis, wenno ti tangdan ti lalaki a balangkantis, iti balay ni Yahweh a Diosyo a panangtungpal ti aniaman a sapata; ta agpada dagitoy a makarimon kenni Yahweh a Diosyo.
19 “When you lend money or food or anything else to a fellow Israeli, do not charge them interest.
Nasken a saanyo a paanakan ti impabulodyo kadagiti padayo nga Israelita—anak ti kuarta, anak ti taraon, wenno ti anak ti tunggal banag a naipabulodyo a pinaanakam.
20 You are allowed to charge interest when you lend money to foreigners [who live in your land], but not when you lend money to Israelis. Do this in order that Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
Mabalinmo a paanakan ti ipabulodmo iti ganggannaet; ngem nasken a saanka nga agpabulod iti adda anakna kadagiti padayo nga Israelita, tapno bendisionannakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadagiti amin nga aramidenyo, iti daga a serkenyo a tagikuaen.
21 “When you vow to give something to Yahweh your God [or to do something for him], do it as soon as you can. Yahweh expects you to do what you promised, and if you do not do it, you will be committing a sin.
No agsapatakayo kenni Yahweh a Diosyo, nasken a saanyo nga itantan ti panangipatungpal iti daytoy, ta pudno a dawaten ni Yahweh a Diosyo daytoy kadakayo; agbalin a basolyo daytoy no saanyo a tungpalen.
22 But if you [SYN] do not vow [to do something], that is not sinful.
Ngem no saankayo nga agsapata, saan nga agbalin a basolyo daytoy.
23 But if you voluntarily promise to do something, you must do it.
Nasken a tungpalen ken aramidenyo ti imbalikas dagiti bibigyo; segun iti insapatayo kenni Yahweh a Diosyo, aniaman a banag a siwayawaya nga inkari ti ngiwatyo.
24 “When you walk through someone else’s vineyard, you are allowed to [pick and] eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not [cut some from a vine and carry them away] in a container.
No mapankayo iti kaubasan ti kaarrubayo, mabalinyo ti mangan kadagiti ubas iti kaykayatyo, ngem saankayo a mangikabil iti aniaman iti labbayo.
25 When you walk [along a path] in someone else’s field of grain, you are allowed to pluck/pick some of the grain and eat it, but you must not cut any grain with a sickle [and take it with you].”
No mapankayo iti katrigoan ti kaarrubayo, mabalinyo ti agpuros kadagiti bukel, ngem saankayo nga agaramat iti kumpay iti katrigoan ti kaarrubayo.
