Deuteronomii 23
1 Non intravit eunuchus attritis vel amputatis testiculis et abscisso veretro, ecclesiam Domini.
He that is wounded in the testicles, or hath his privy member cut, shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.
2 Non ingredietur mamzer, hoc est, de scorto natus, in ecclesiam Domini, usque ad decimam generationem.
One born from prohibited connections shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord; even the tenth generation of him shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.
3 Ammonites et Moabites etiam post decimam generationem non intrabunt ecclesiam Domini, in aeternum:
An 'Ammonite and a Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord; even the tenth generation of him shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord, for ever;
4 quia noluerunt vobis occurrere cum pane et aqua in via quando egressi estis de Aegypto: et quia conduxerunt contra te Balaam filium Beor de Mesopotamia Syriae, ut malediceret tibi:
For the reason, that they met you not with bread and with water on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because he hired against thee Bil'am the son of Beor of Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse thee;
5 et noluit Dominus Deus tuus audire Balaam, vertitque maledictionem eius in benedictionem tuam, eo quod diligeret te.
But the Lord thy God would not hearken unto Bil'am; and the Lord thy God changed unto thee the curse into a blessing, because the Lord thy God loved thee.
6 Non facies cum eis pacem, nec quaeras eis bona cunctis diebus vitae tuae in sempiternum.
Thou shalt not seek their peace and their welfare all thy days, for ever.
7 Non abominaberis Idumaeum, quia frater tuus est: nec Aegyptium, quia advena fuisti in terra eius.
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.
8 Qui nati fuerint ex eis, tertia generatione intrabunt in ecclesiam Domini.
The children that are born unto them in the third generation, may enter of them into the congregation of the Lord.
9 Quando egressus fueris adversus hostes tuos in pugnam, custodies te ab omni re mala.
When thou goest forth into camp against thy enemies, then keep thyself from every evil thing.
10 Si fuerit inter vos homo, qui nocturno pollutus sit somnio, egredietur extra castra,
If there be among thee any man, that is not clean by reason of an occurrence by night; then shall he go abroad to without the camp, he shall not come within the camp;
11 et non revertetur, priusquam ad vesperam lavetur aqua: et post solis occasum regredietur in castra.
But it shall be, that toward evening he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun goeth down, he may come into the midst of the camp.
12 Habebis locum extra castra, ad quem egrediaris ad requisita naturae,
And a place shalt thou have without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:
13 gerens paxillum in balteo. cumque sederis, fodies per circuitum, et egesta humo operies
And a spade shalt thou have with thy weapons: and it shall be, when thou sittest abroad, that thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt afterward cover that which cometh from thee;
14 quo revelatus es (Dominus enim Deus tuus ambulat in medio castrorum, ut eruat te, et tradat tibi inimicos tuos) et sint castra tua sancta, et nihil in eis appareat foeditatis ne derelinquat te.
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 see no unseemly thing in thee, and turn away from thee.
15 Non trades servum Domino suo, qui ad te confugerit.
Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant who may escape unto thee from his master;
16 habitabit tecum in loco, qui ei placuerit, et in una urbium tuarum requiescet: ne contristes eum.
With thee shall he dwell, in the midst of thee, in the place which he may choose in any one of thy gates, where it seemeth best to him: thou shalt not oppress him.
17 Non erit meretrix de filiabus Israel, nec scortator de filiis Israel.
There shall not be a prostitute of the daughters of Israel, and there shall not be a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18 Non offeres mercedem prostibuli, nec pretium canis in domo Domini Dei tui, quidquid illud est quod voveris: quia abominatio est utrumque apud Dominum Deum tuum.
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 both of these are equally an abomination unto the Lord thy God.
19 Non foenerabis fratri tuo ad usuram pecuniam, nec fruges, nec quamlibet aliam rem:
Thou shalt not take interest from thy brother, interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of any thing that is lent upon interest:
20 sed alieno. Fratri autem tuo absque usura id, quo indiget, commodabis: ut benedicat tibi Dominus Deus tuus in omni opere tuo in Terra, ad quam ingredieris possidendam.
From an alien thou mayest take interest; but from thy brother thou shalt not take interest; in order that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the acquisition of thy hand, in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
21 Cum votum voveris Domino Deo tuo, non tardabis reddere: quia requiret illud Dominus Deus tuus. et si moratus fueris, reputabitur tibi in peccatum.
When thou makest a vow unto the Lord thy God, thou shalt not delay to pay it; for the Lord thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22 Si nolueris polliceri, absque peccato eris.
But if thou forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
23 Quod autem semel egressum est de labiis tuis, observabis, et facies sicut promisisti Domino Deo tuo, et propria voluntate et ore tuo locutus es.
What is gone out of thy lips shalt thou keep and perform, as thou hast vowed unto the Lord thy God voluntarily, as thou hast spoken with thy mouth.
24 Ingressus vineam proximi tui, comede uvas quantum tibi placuerit: foras autem ne efferas tecum.
When thou comest into thy neighbor's vineyard, thou mayest eat grapes at thy own pleasure, till thou have enough; but into thy vessel shalt thou not put any.
25 Si intraveris in segetem amici tui, franges spicas, et manu conteres: falce autem non metes.
When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbor, thou mayest pluck ears with thy hand; but a sickle shall thou not move over thy neighbor's standing corn.
