申命記 24
1 人妻を取てこれを娶れる後恥べき所のこれにあるを見てこれを好まずなりたらば離縁状を書てこれが手に交しこれをその家より出すべし
When a man takes a wife and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favour in his eyes because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a certificate of divorce, put it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
2 その婦これが家より出たる後往て他の人に嫁ぐことをせんに
When she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.
3 後の夫もこれを嫌ひ離縁状を書てその手にわたして之を家より出し又はこれを妻にめとれるその後の夫死るあるも
If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a certificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife;
4 是は已に身を汚玷したるに因て之を出したるその先の夫ふたたびこれを妻にめとるべからず是ヱホバの憎みたまふ事なればなり汝の神ヱホバの汝に與へて產業となさしめたまふ地に汝罪を負すなかれ
her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled; for that would be an abomination to the LORD. You shall not cause the land to sin, which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance.
5 人あらたに妻を娶りたる時は之を軍に出すべからずまた何の職務をもこれに任すべからずその人は一年家に間居してその娶れる妻を慰むべし
When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be assigned any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
6 人その磨礱を質におくべからず是その生命をつなぐ物を質におくなればなり
No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone as a pledge, for he takes a life in pledge.
7 イスラエルの子孫の中なるその兄弟を拐帶してこれを使ひまたはこれを賣る人あるを見ばその拐帶者を殺し然して汝らの中より惡を除くべし
If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So you shall remove the evil from amongst you.
8 汝癩病を愼み凡て祭司たるレビ人が汝らに敎ふる所を善く守りて行ふべし即ち我が彼らに命ぜしごとくに汝ら守りて行ふべし
Be careful in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently and do according to all that the Levitical priests teach you. As I commanded them, so you shall observe to do.
9 汝らがエジプトより出きたれる路にて汝の神ヱホバがミリアムに爲たまひしところの事を誌えよ
Remember what the LORD your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.
10 凡て汝の鄰に物を貸あたふる時は汝みづからこれが家にいりてその質物を取べからず
When you lend your neighbour any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge.
11 汝は外に立をり汝が貸たる人その質物を外に持いだして汝に付すべし
You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge outside to you.
12 その人もし困苦者ならば之が質物を留おきて睡眠に就べからず
If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep with his pledge.
13 かならず日の入る頃その質物を之に還すべし然せばその人おのれの上衣をまとふて睡眠につくことを得て汝を祝せん是汝の神ヱホバの前において汝の義となるべし
You shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment and bless you. It shall be righteousness to you before the LORD your God.
14 困苦る貧き傭人は汝の兄弟にもあれ又は汝の地にてなんぢの門の内に寄寓る他國の人にもあれ之を虐ぐべからず
You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who are in your land within your gates.
15 當日にこれが値をはらふべし日の入るまで延すべからず其は貧き者にてその心にこれを慕へばなり恐らくは彼ヱホバに汝を訴ふるありて汝罪を獲ん
In his day you shall give him his wages, neither shall the sun go down on it, for he is poor and sets his heart on it, lest he cry against you to the LORD, and it be sin to you.
16 父はその子等の故によりて殺さるべからず子等はその父の故によりて殺さるべからず各人おのれの罪によりて殺さるべきなり
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers. Every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17 汝他國の人または孤子の審判を曲べからずまた寡婦の衣服を質に取べからず
You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, nor take a widow’s clothing in pledge;
18 汝誌ゆべし汝はエジプトに奴隸たりしが汝の神ヱホバ汝を其處より贖ひいだしたまへり是をもて我この事をなせと汝に命ずるなり
but you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
19 汝田野にて穀物を刈る時もしその一束を田野に忘れおきたらば返りてこれを取べからず他國の人と孤子と寡婦とにこれを取すべし然せば汝の神ヱホバ凡て汝が手に作ところの事に祝福を降したまはん
When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
20 汝橄欖を打落す時は再びその枝をさがすべからずその遺れる者を他國の人と孤子と寡婦とに取すべし
When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 また葡萄園の葡萄を摘とる時はその遺れる者を再びさがすべからず他國の人と孤子と寡婦とにこれを取すべし
When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean it after yourselves. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 汝誌ゆべし汝はエジプトの國に奴隸たりしなり是をもて我この事を爲せと汝に命ず
You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
