Deuteronomy 24
1 'When a man doth take a wife, and hath married her, and it hath been, if she doth not find grace in his eyes (for he hath found in her nakedness of anything), and he hath written for her a writing of divorce, and given [it] into her hand, and sent her out of his house,
「人若娶妻以後，見她有甚麼不合理的事，不喜悅她，就可以寫休書交在她手中，打發她離開夫家。
2 and she hath gone out of his house, and hath gone and been another man's,
婦人離開夫家以後，可以去嫁別人。
3 and the latter man hath hated her, and written for her a writing of divorce, and given [it] into her hand, and sent her out of his house, or when the latter man dieth, who hath taken her to himself for a wife:
後夫若恨惡她，寫休書交在她手中，打發她離開夫家，或是娶她為妻的後夫死了，
4 'Her former husband who sent her away is not able to turn back to take her to be to him for a wife, after that she hath become defiled; for an abomination it [is] before Jehovah, and thou dost not cause the land to sin which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance.
打發她去的前夫不可在婦人玷污之後再娶她為妻，因為這是耶和華所憎惡的；不可使耶和華－你上帝所賜為業之地被玷污了。」
5 'When a man taketh a new wife, he doth not go out into the host, and [one] doth not pass over unto him for anything; free he is at his own house one year, and hath rejoiced his wife whom he hath taken.
「新娶妻之人不可從軍出征，也不可託他辦理甚麼公事，可以在家清閒一年，使他所娶的妻快活。
6 'None doth take in pledge millstones, and rider, for life it [is] he is taking in pledge.
「不可拿人的全盤磨石或是上磨石作當頭，因為這是拿人的命作當頭。
7 'When a man is found stealing a person, of his brethren, of the sons of Israel, and hath tyrannized over him, and sold him, then hath that thief died, and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst.
「若遇見人拐帶以色列中的一個弟兄，當奴才待他，或是賣了他，那拐帶人的就必治死。這樣，便將那惡從你們中間除掉。
8 'Take heed, in the plague of leprosy, to watch greatly, and to do according to all that the priests, the Levites, teach you; as I have commanded them ye observe to do;
「在大痲瘋的災病上，你們要謹慎，照祭司利未人一切所指教你們的留意遵行。我怎樣吩咐他們，你們要怎樣遵行。
9 remember that which Jehovah thy God hath done to Miriam in the way, in your coming out of Egypt.
當記念出埃及後，在路上，耶和華－你上帝向米利暗所行的事。
10 'When thou liftest up on thy brother a debt of anything, thou dost not go in unto his house to obtain his pledge;
「你借給鄰舍，不拘是甚麼，不可進他家拿他的當頭。
11 at the outside thou dost stand, and the man on whom thou art lifting [it] up is bringing out unto thee the pledge at the outside.
要站在外面，等那向你借貸的人把當頭拿出來交給你。
12 'And if he is a poor man, thou dost not lie down with his pledge;
他若是窮人，你不可留他的當頭過夜。
13 thou dost certainly give back to him the pledge at the going in of the sun, and he hath lain down in his own raiment, and hath blessed thee; and to thee it is righteousness before Jehovah thy God.
日落的時候，總要把當頭還他，使他用那件衣服蓋着睡覺，他就為你祝福；這在耶和華－你上帝面前就是你的義了。
14 'Thou dost not oppress a hireling, poor and needy, of thy brethren or of thy sojourner who is in thy land within thy gates;
「困苦窮乏的雇工，無論是你的弟兄或是在你城裏寄居的，你不可欺負他。
15 in his day thou dost give his hire, and the sun doth not go in upon it, for he [is] poor, and unto it he is lifting up his soul, and he doth not cry against thee unto Jehovah, and it hath been in thee — sin.
要當日給他工價，不可等到日落－因為他窮苦，把心放在工價上－恐怕他因你求告耶和華，罪便歸你了。
16 'Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers — each for his own sin, they are put to death.
「不可因子殺父，也不可因父殺子；凡被殺的都為本身的罪。
17 'Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of a fatherless sojourner, nor take in pledge the garment of a widow;
「你不可向寄居的和孤兒屈枉正直，也不可拿寡婦的衣裳作當頭。
18 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God doth ransom thee from thence; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.
要記念你在埃及作過奴僕。耶和華－你的上帝從那裏將你救贖，所以我吩咐你這樣行。
19 'When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgotten a sheaf in a field, thou dost not turn back to take it; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is; so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hands.
「你在田間收割莊稼，若忘下一捆，不可回去再取，要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。這樣，耶和華－你上帝必在你手裏所辦的一切事上賜福與你。
20 'When thou beatest thine olive, thou dost not examine the branch behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is.
你打橄欖樹，枝上剩下的，不可再打；要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。
21 'When thou cuttest thy vineyard, thou dost not glean behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is;
你摘葡萄園的葡萄，所剩下的，不可再摘；要留給寄居的與孤兒寡婦。
22 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.
你也要記念你在埃及地作過奴僕，所以我吩咐你這樣行。
