Piektā Mozus 25
1 Kad starp vīriem ir kāda ķilda un tie ies priekš tiesas, tad soģiem tos būs tiesāt un taisno taisnot un netaisno notiesāt.
“If [two] Israelis have a dispute and they go to a court, the judge will [probably] decide/declare that one of them (is innocent/did not do any wrong) and the other one is guilty.
2 Un ja tas vainīgais sitienus pelnījis, tad lai soģis tam liek mesties zemē, un klāt būdams tam liek sitienus dot ar skaitu pēc viņa vainas.
If the judge says that the guilty person must be punished, he shall command him to lie [with his face] on the ground and be whipped. The number of times he is struck with a whip will depend on [what kind of] crime he committed.
3 Četrdesmit sitienus lai tam liek dot; Ne vairāk, lai, ja to vēl vairāk sistu pāri par to, tavs brālis nekļūst nicināts tavās acīs. -
It is permitted that he be struck as many as 40 times, but no more than that. If he is struck more than 40 times, he would be humiliated publicly.
4 Vērsim, kas labību min, tev nebūs purnu apsiet.-
When your ox is treading/walking on the grain [to separate the chaff from the grain], do not (muzzle it/put a covering on its mouth) [to prevent it from eating some of the grain].
5 Kad brāļi kopā dzīvo un viens no tiem mirst un tam dēla nav, tad tā mirušā sievai nebūs (par sievu) tapt citam kādam svešam vīram, bet tā vīra brālis lai pie viņas ieiet un to ņem par sievu, un tai dara, kas vīra brālim pienākas.
If two brothers live on the same property, and one of them who has no son dies, the man’s widow should not marry someone who is not a member of his family. The dead man’s brother must marry her and have sex [EUP] with her. It is his duty to do that.
6 Un to pirmdzimušo, ko viņa dzemdēs, viņam būs likt sava nomirušā brāļa vārdā, lai viņa vārds no Israēla netop izdeldēts.
If she later gives birth to a son, that son is to be considered [MTY] the son of the man who died, in order that the dead man’s name will not disappear from Israel.
7 Bet ja šim vīram nepatīk ņemt sava brāļa sievu, tad lai tā brāļa sieva iet pie tiem vecajiem vārtos un lai saka: mans vīra brālis liedzās savam brālim celt vārdu iekš Israēla; viņš man negrib darīt, kas vīra brālim pienākas.
“But if the dead man’s brother does not want to marry that woman, she must stand at the (gate/central meeting place) of the town and say to the [town] elders, ‘My husband’s brother will not do (his duty/what he is supposed to do). He refuses to [marry me in order that I may give birth to a son who will] prevent my dead husband’s name from disappearing in Israel.’
8 Tad lai pilsētas vecaji viņu aicina un uz viņu runā; ja tad viņš pastāv un saka: man nepatīk viņu ņemt; -
Then the elders must summon that man and talk to him. If he still refuses to marry that widow,
9 Tad lai viņa brāļa sieva iet pie viņa priekš vecaju acīm, un lai viņam novelk kurpi no kājas un lai viņam spļauj vaigā; un lai viņa atbild un saka: tā lai notiek tam vīram, kas negrib uzcelt sava brāļa namu.
she must go up to him while the elders are watching, and take off one of his sandals [to symbolize/show that he would not receive any of her property], and spit in his face, and say to him, ‘This is what happens to the man who refuses to do what is needed [to allow his dead brother to have a son] in order that our family name does not disappear.’
10 Un viņa vārds iekš Israēla taps nosaukts baskājas nams. -
After that happens, that man’s family will be known as ‘the family of the man whose sandal was pulled off’.
11 Kad vīri viens ar otru kaujās, un tā viena sieva pieiet izglābt savu vīru no viņa sitēja rokas un izstiepj savu roku un sagrābj viņa kaunumu,
When [two] men are fighting with each other, and the one man’s wife comes near to help her husband by grabbing hold of the other man’s genitals,
12 Tad tev to roku viņai būs nocirst, - lai tava acs nežēlo. -
do not act mercifully toward her; cut off her hand.
13 Tev nebūs divējādu svaru turēt savā kulē, lielu un mazu.
“[When you are buying or selling things], do not try to cheat people by having two kinds of weights, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something], and two kinds of measuring baskets, [one which you use when you buy something and one which you use when you sell something].
14 Tev nebūs divējādu pūru turēt savā namā, lielu un mazu.
15 Lai tev ir pilnīgs un taisns svars lai tev ir pilnīgs un taisns mērs, ka tu ilgi dzīvo tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos.
Always use correct weights and correct measuring baskets, in order that Yahweh our God will allow you to live a long time in the land that he is giving to you.
16 Jo ikviens, kas to dara, ikviens, kas netaisni dara, tas Tam Kungam, tavam Dievam, ir negantība. -
Yahweh hates all those who act dishonestly, [and he will punish them].
17 Piemini, ko Amalekieši tev darīja ceļā, kad izgājāt no Ēģiptes zemes.
Continue to remember what the Amalek people-group did to your ancestors when they were coming out of Egypt.
18 Kā viņi tev pretī cēlās ceļā, un tev kāva tos pakaļējus, visus nespēcīgos aiz tevis, kad tu biji piekusis un noguris, un tie nebijās Dievu.
They attacked your ancestors as your ancestors were traveling, when they were weak and exhausted. Those people were not afraid of God at all, so they attacked your ancestors from the rear and killed all those who were unable to walk as fast as the others.
19 Kad nu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev būs devis dusu no visiem taviem ienaidniekiem visapkārt tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos par īpašumu iemantot, tad Amalekiešu piemiņu tev būs izdeldēt no pasaules. Neaizmirsti to.
Therefore, when Yahweh our God has given you the land [that he promised to give you], and when he has enabled you to rest from [fighting] all your enemies around you, kill all the Amalek people-group, with the result that no one will remember them any more. Do not forget [to do this]!”
