Deuteronomy 23

1 He that is wounded or mutilated in his secrets, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

١ «لَا يَدْخُلْ مَخْصِيٌّ بِٱلرَّضِّ أَوْ مَجْبُوبٌ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

2 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

٢ لَا يَدْخُلِ ٱبْنُ زِنًى فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. حَتَّى ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلْعَاشِرِ لَا يَدْخُلْ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:

٣ لَا يَدْخُلْ عَمُّونِيٌّ وَلَا مُوآبِيٌّ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. حَتَّى ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلْعَاشِرِ لَا يَدْخُلْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ،

4 Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth from Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.

٤ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُلَاقُوكُمْ بِٱلْخُبْزِ وَٱلْمَاءِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِكُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ، وَلِأَنَّهُمُ ٱسْتَأْجَرُوا عَلَيْكَ بَلْعَامَ بْنَ بَعُورَ مِنْ فَتُورِ أَرَامِ ٱلنَّهْرَيْنِ لِكَيْ يَلْعَنَكَ.

5 Nevertheless, the LORD thy God would not hearken to Balaam: but the LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing to thee, because the LORD thy God loved thee.

٥ وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَشَإِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ لِبَلْعَامَ، فَحَوَّلَ لِأَجْلِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱللَّعْنَةَ إِلَى بَرَكَةٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدْ أَحَبَّكَ.

6 Thou shalt not seek their peace, nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.

٦ لَا تَلْتَمِسْ سَلَامَهُمْ وَلَا خَيْرَهُمْ كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

7 Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite, for he [is] thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian, because thou wast a stranger in his land.

٧ لَا تَكْرَهْ أَدُومِيًّا لِأَنَّهُ أَخُوكَ. لَا تَكْرَهْ مِصْرِيًّا لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ نَزِيلًا فِي أَرْضِهِ.

8 The children that are begotten by them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.

٨ ٱلْأَوْلَادُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُولَدُونَ لَهُمْ فِي ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلثَّالِثِ يَدْخُلُونَ مِنْهُمْ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

9 When the host goeth forth against thy enemies, then keep thee from every wicked thing.

٩ «إِذَا خَرَجْتَ فِي جَيْشٍ عَلَى أَعْدَائِكَ فَٱحْتَرِزْ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ رَدِيءٍ.

10 If there shall be among you any man that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chanceth to him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:

١٠ إِنْ كَانَ فِيكَ رَجُلٌ غَيْرَ طَاهِرٍ مِنْ عَارِضِ ٱللَّيْلِ، يَخْرُجُ إِلَى خَارِجِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. لَا يَدْخُلْ إِلَى دَاخِلِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ.

11 But it shall be, when evening cometh on, he shall wash [himself] with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp [again].

١١ وَنَحْوَ إِقْبَالِ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يَغْتَسِلُ بِمَاءٍ، وَعِنْدَ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ يَدْخُلُ إِلَى دَاخِلِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ.

12 Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:

١٢ وَيَكُونُ لَكَ مَوْضِعٌ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ لِتَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِ خَارِجًا.

13 And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon: and it shall be when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig with it, and shalt turn back, and cover that which cometh from thee:

١٣ وَيَكُونُ لَكَ وَتَدٌ مَعَ عُدَّتِكَ لِتَحْفِرَ بِهِ عِنْدَمَا تَجْلِسُ خَارِجًا وَتَرْجِعُ وَتُغَطِّي بِرَازَكَ.

14 For the LORD thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thy enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he may see no unclean thing in thee, and turn away from thee.

١٤ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ سَائِرٌ فِي وَسَطِ مَحَلَّتِكَ، لِكَيْ يُنْقِذَكَ وَيَدْفَعَ أَعْدَاءَكَ أَمَامَكَ. فَلْتَكُنْ مَحَلَّتُكَ مُقَدَّسَةً، لِئَلَّا يَرَى فِيكَ قَذَرَ شَيْءٍ فَيَرْجِعَ عَنْكَ.

15 Thou shalt not deliver to his master the servant who hath escaped from his master to thee:

١٥ «عَبْدًا أَبَقَ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ مَوْلَاهُ لَا تُسَلِّمْ إِلَى مَوْلَاهُ.

16 He shall dwell with thee, [even] among you in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates where it pleaseth him best: thou shalt not oppress him.

١٦ عِنْدَكَ يُقِيمُ فِي وَسَطِكَ، فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ فِي أَحَدِ أَبْوَابِكَ حَيْثُ يَطِيبُ لَهُ. لَا تَظْلِمْهُ.

17 There shall be no harlot of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.

١٧ «لَا تَكُنْ زَانِيَةٌ مِنْ بَنَاتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلَا يَكُنْ مَأْبُونٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

18 Thou shalt not bring the hire of a harlot, or the price of a dog into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these [are] abomination to the LORD thy God.

١٨ لَا تُدْخِلْ أُجْرَةَ زَانِيَةٍ وَلَا ثَمَنَ كَلْبٍ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ عَنْ نَذْرٍ مَّا، لِأَنَّهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا رِجْسٌ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ.

19 Thou shalt not lend upon interest to thy brother; interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of any thing that is lent upon interest:

١٩ «لَا تُقْرِضْ أَخَاكَ بِرِبًا، رِبَا فِضَّةٍ، أَوْ رِبَا طَعَامٍ، أَوْ رِبَا شَيْءٍ مَّا مِمَّا يُقْرَضُ بِرِبًا،

20 To a stranger thou mayest lend upon interest; but to thy brother thou shalt not lend upon interest; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thy hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

٢٠ لِلْأَجْنَبِيِّ تُقْرِضُ بِرِبًا، وَلَكِنْ لِأَخِيكَ لَا تُقْرِضْ بِرِبًا، لِكَيْ يُبَارِكَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا.

21 When thou shalt vow a vow to the LORD thy God, thou shalt not defer to pay it: for the LORD thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.

٢١ «إِذَا نَذَرْتَ نَذْرًا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ فَلَا تُؤَخِّرْ وَفَاءَهُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَطْلُبُهُ مِنْكَ فَتَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ خَطِيَّةٌ.

22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.

٢٢ وَلَكِنْ إِذَا ٱمْتَنَعْتَ أَنْ تَنْذُرَ لَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ خَطِيَّةٌ.

23 That which is uttered by thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; [even] a free-will-offering, according as thou hast vowed to the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.

٢٣ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ شَفَتَيْكَ ٱحْفَظْ وَٱعْمَلْ، كَمَا نَذَرْتَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ تَبَرُّعًا، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ فَمُكَ.

24 When thou comest into thy neighbor's vineyard, then thou mayest satisfy thy appetite with grapes at thy own pleasure; but thou shalt not put [any] in thy vessel.

٢٤ «إِذَا دَخَلْتَ كَرْمَ صَاحِبِكَ فَكُلْ عِنَبًا حَسَبَ شَهْوَةِ نَفْسِكَ، شَبْعَتَكَ. وَلَكِنْ فِي وِعَائِكَ لَا تَجْعَلْ.

25 When thou comest into the standing-corn of thy neighbor, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thy hand: but thou shalt not move a sickle to thy neighbor's standing-corn.

٢٥ إِذَا دَخَلْتَ زَرْعَ صَاحِبِكَ فَٱقْطِفْ سَنَابِلَ بِيَدِكَ، وَلَكِنْ مِنْجَلًا لَا تَرْفَعْ عَلَى زَرْعِ صَاحِبِكَ.
