व्यवस्था 23

1 लिङ्ग किचिएको वा काटिएको मानिसलाई परमप्रभुको सभामा प्रवेश गर्न निदनू ।

No man injured by crushing or cutting off may enter the assembly of Yahweh.

2 कुनै अवैध बच्‍चा परमप्रभुको सभामा प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन । त्यसको दस पुस्तासम्म त्यसको कोही सन्तान पनि परमप्रभुको सभामा प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन ।

No illegitimate child may belong to the assembly of Yahweh; as far as to the tenth generation of his descendants, none of them may belong to the assembly of Yahweh.

3 अम्मोनी वा मोआबी परमप्रभुको सभामा प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन । त्यसको दस पुस्तासम्म त्यसको कोही सन्तान पनि परमप्रभुको सभामा प्रवेश गर्नुहुँदैन ।

An Ammonite or a Moabite may not belong to the assembly of Yahweh; as far as to the tenth generation of his descendants, none of them may belong to the assembly of Yahweh.

4 किनकि तिमीहरू मिश्रबाट आउँदा बाटोमा तिनीहरूले रोटी र पानी लिएर तिमीहरूलाई भेट्न आएका थिएनन्, र तिमीहरूको विरुद्धमा श्राप दिन तिनीहरूले पतोरमा बस्‍ने बओरका छोरा बालामलाई भाडामा लिएका थिए ।

This is because they did not meet you with bread and with water on the road when you had come out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim, to curse you.

5 तर परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले बालामको कुरा सुन्‍नुभएन । बरु, तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले श्रापलाई आशिष्‌मा परिणत गरिदिनुभयो किनकि तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई प्रेम गर्नुहुन्थ्यो ।

But Yahweh your God would not listen to Balaam; instead, Yahweh your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because Yahweh your God loved you.

6 तिमीहरूका जीवनभर तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूका शान्ति वा उन्‍नतिको खोजी नगर्नू ।

You must never seek their peace or prosperity, during all your days.

7 तिमीहरूले कुनै एदोमीलाई तिरस्कार नगर्नू । कुनै मिश्रीलाई घृणा नगर्नू किनकि तिमीहरू त्यसको देशमा परदेशी थियौ ।

You must not detest an Edomite, for he is your brother; you must not abhor an Egyptian, because you were a foreigner in his land.

8 तिनीहरूबाट जन्मेका तेस्रो पुस्ताका सन्तानहरू परमप्रभुको सभामा पस्‍न सक्छन् ।

The descendants of the third generation that are born to them may belong to the assembly of Yahweh.

9 तिमीहरू आफ्ना शत्रुहरूको विरुद्धमा युद्धमा जाँदा तिमीहरूले आ-आफूलाई दुष्‍ट कुराहरूबाट अलग राख ।

When you march out as an army against your enemies, then you must keep yourselves from every evil thing.

10 तिमीहरूका बिचमा रातम कुनै पुरुष स्वप्‍न-दोषको कारणले गर्दा अशुद्ध भएको छ भने त्यो सेनाको छाउनीबाट बाहिर जाओस् र छाउनीमा फर्केर नआओस् ।

If there is among you any man who is unclean because of what happened to him at night, then he must go out of the army's camp; he must not come back into the camp.

11 साँझ परेपछि त्यसले पानीले नुहाओस् । सूर्य अस्ताएपछि त्यो छाउनीमा आओस् ।

When evening comes, he must bathe himself in water; when the sun goes down, he will come back inside the camp.

12 छाउनीबाहिर तिमीहरूका लागि एउटा ठाउँ हुनुपर्छ ।

You must have a place also outside the camp to which you will go;

13 खन्‍नका लागि तिमीहरूसित सामग्रीहरू हुनुपर्छ । दिसा बसिसकेपछि खाल्डो खनेर दिसा पुरिदिनू ।

and you will have something among your tools to dig with; when you squat down to relieve yourself, you must dig with it and then put back the earth and cover up what has come out from you.

14 किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई विजय दिन र तिमीहरूका शत्रुहरूलाई तिमीहरूका हातमा दिन उहाँ तिमीहरूको छाउनीको बिचमा हिँडडुल गर्नुहुन्छ । त्यसकारण, तिमीहरूको छाउनी पवित्र हुनुपर्छ ताकि तिमीहरूका बिचमा कुनै अशुद्ध कुरा देखेर उहाँ तिमीहरूका बिचबाट तर्केर नजानुभएको होस् ।

For Yahweh your God walks in the midst of your camp to give you victory and to give your enemies into your hand. Therefore your camp must be holy, so that he may not see any unclean thing among you and turn away from you.

15 आफ्नो मालिकबाट भागेर आएको कमारालाई त्यसको मालिककहाँ नफर्काउनू ।

You must not give back to his master a slave who has escaped from his master.

16 त्यसले जुनसुकै सहर छाने तापनि त्यसलाई तिमीहरूसँगै बस्‍न दिनू । त्यसलाई थिचोमिचो नगर्नू ।

Let him live with you, in whatever town he chooses. Do not oppress him.

17 इस्राएलीका छोरीहरू र छोराहरूका बिचमा कसैले पनि मन्दिरको वेश्यावृत्तिमा काम नगरोस् ।

There must be no cultic prostitute among any of the daughters of Israel, neither must there be a cultic prostitute among the sons of Israel.

18 तिमीहरूले कुनै भाकलको निम्ति वेश्यावृत्तिको ज्याला वा कुकुरको ज्याला परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरको भवनमा नल्याउनू । किनकि यी दुवै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरका लागि घृणित कुराहरू हुन् ।

You must not bring the wages of a prostitute or the wages of a dog into the house of Yahweh your God for any vow; for both these are abominations to Yahweh your God.

19 ब्याज प्राप्‍त गर्न सकिने रुपियाँ-पैसा, भोजन वा अन्य कुनै पनि कुरो आफ्नो इस्राएली भाइलाई ऋणस्वरूप दिँदा त्यसबाट ब्याज नलिनू ।

You must not lend on interest to your fellow Israelite—interest of money, interest of food, or the interest of anything that is lent on interest.

20 परदेशीबाट भने तिमीहरूले ब्याज लिन सक्छौ । तर आफ्नो इस्राएली भाइबाट भने तिमीहरूले ब्याज लिनुहुँदैन । यसरी परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अधिकार गर्न लागेको देशमा तिमीहरूको हात परेको हरेक थोकमा आशिष् दिनुभएको होस् ।

To a foreigner you may lend on interest; but to your fellow Israelite you must not lend on interest, so that Yahweh your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land which you are going in to possess.

21 तिमीहरूले परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई भाकल गर्दा यसलाई पुरा गर्न विलम्ब नगर किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूबाट यो चाहनुहुन्छ । भाकल पुरा नगर्नु पाप हो ।

When you make a vow to Yahweh your God, you must not be slow in fulfilling it, for Yahweh your God will surely require it of you; it would be sin for you not to fulfill it.

22 तर भाकलै गरेका छैनौ भने यो तिमीहरूका लागि पाप हुँदैन ।

But if you will refrain from making a vow, it will be no sin for you.

23 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई तिमीहरूले भाकल गरेअनुसार वा तिमीहरूका मुखले स्वैच्छापूर्वक प्रतिज्ञा गरेअनुसार तिमीहरूका मुखबाट निस्केको कुरा पुरा गर्नुपर्छ ।

That which has gone out from your lips you must observe and do; according as you have vowed to Yahweh your God, anything that you have freely promised with your mouth.

24 तिमीहरू आफ्नो छिमेकीको दाखबारीमा जाँदा इच्छा लागेअनुसार चाहेजति दाख खान सक्छौ, तर आफ्नो टोकरीमा भने नहाल ।

When you go into your neighbor's vineyard, you may eat as many grapes as you desire, but do not put any in your basket.

25 तिमीहरू आफ्नो छिमेकीको अन्‍न पाकेको खेतमा जाँदा तिमीहरूले आफ्ना हातले अन्‍नका बाला टिप्‍न सक्छौ, तर पाकेको बालीमा हँसिया नलगाओ ।

When you go into your neighbor's ripe grain, you may pluck the heads of grain with your hand, but do not put a sickle to your neighbor's ripe grain.
