< व्यवस्था 25 >
1 मानिसहरूका बिचमा झैझगडा भयो र तिनीहरू अदालतमा गए भने न्यायकर्ताहरूले तिनीहरूको न्याय गरून् अनि धर्मीलाई छाडिदिएर दुष्टलाई दोषी ठहराऊन् ।
'When there is a strife between men, and they have come nigh unto the judgment, and they have judged, and declared righteous the righteous, and declared wrong the wrong-doer,
2 दोषी मानिसले पिटाइ खानुपर्छ भने न्याकर्ताले त्यसलाई लम्पसार पर्न लगाएर न्यायकर्ताको उपस्थितिमा त्यसको अपराधअनुसार त्यसलाई कोर्रा हानोस् ।
then it hath come to pass, if the wrong-doer is to be smitten, that the judge hath caused him to fall down, and [one] hath smitten him in his presence, according to the sufficiency of his wrong-doing, by number;
3 न्यायकर्ताले त्यसलाई चालिस कोर्रा लगाउन सक्छ, तर त्यसभन्दा बढीचाहिँ होइन । किनकि त्यसभन्दा बढी कोर्रा लगाए तिमीहरूको इस्राएली भाइ तिमीहरूको दृष्टिमा अपमानित हुने छ ।
forty [times] he doth smite him — he is not adding, lest, he is adding to smite him above these — many stripes, and thy brother is lightly esteemed in thine eyes.
4 दाइँ गर्दा गोरुलाई महला नलागाओ ।
'Thou dost not muzzle an ox in its threshing.
5 सँगसँगै बसेका दाजुभाइमध्ये कुनै छोरो नजन्माई एउटाको मृत्यु भयो भने मरेको मानिसकी पत्नीलाई परिवारभन्दा बाहिर विवाहको लागि नदिइयोस् । बरु, मर्नेको दाजु वा भाइले त्यसलाई आफ्नी पत्नी तुल्याओस्, र मृत लोग्नेको दाजु वा भाइले आफ्नो कर्तव्य पुरा गरोस् ।
'When brethren dwell together, and one of them hath died, and hath no son, the wife of the dead is not without to a strange man; her husband's brother doth go in unto her, and hath taken her to him for a wife, and doth perform the duty of her husband's brother;
6 स्त्रीले जन्माउने पहिलो छोरोलाई मरेको व्यक्तिको नाउँ दिइयोस् ताकि त्यसको नाउँ इस्राएलबाट नमेटियोस् ।
and it hath been, the first-born which she beareth doth rise for the name of his dead brother, and his name is not wiped away out of Israel.
7 तर देवरले आफ्नी भाउजुलाई राख्ने इच्छा गरेन भने मुल ढोकामा गई भाउजुले धर्म-गुरुहरूलाई यसो भनोस्, 'मेरो देवरले इस्राएलमा त्यसको दाजुको नाउँ राख्न इन्कार गर्छ । त्यसले मसित देवरले गर्नुपर्ने कर्तव्य गर्दैन ।'
'And if the man doth not delight to take his brother's wife, then hath his brother's wife gone up to the gate, unto the elders, and said, My husband's brother is refusing to raise up to his brother a name in Israel; he hath not been willing to perform the duty of my husband's brother;
8 तब त्यसको सहरका धर्म-गुरुहरूले त्यसलाई बोलाएर त्यससित कुराकानी गरून् । तर त्यसले 'म भाउजुलाई राख्न चाहन्नँ' भनी जिद्दी गर्यो भने
and the elders of his city have called for him, and spoken unto him, and he hath stood and said, I have no desire to take her;
9 भाउजु धर्म-गुरुहरूको उपस्थितिमा देवरकहाँ आई उसले त्यसको खुट्टाबाट जुत्ता फुकालेर त्यसको मुखमा थुकिदेओस् । भाउजुले यसो भनोस्, 'आफ्नो दाजुको घर निर्माण नगर्ने मानिसलाई यसै गरिन्छ ।'
'Then hath his brother's wife drawn nigh unto him, before the eyes of the elders, and drawn his shoe from off his foot, and spat in his face, and answered and said, Thus it is done to the man who doth not build up the house of his brother;
10 इस्राएलमा त्यसको नाउँलाई 'जुत्ता फुकालिएको घर' भनिने छ ।
and his name hath been called in Israel — The house of him whose shoe is drawn off.
11 मानिसहरू एक-अर्कासित झगदा गर्दा एक जनाकी पत्नी आएर आफ्नो पतिलाई बचाउन विरोधीको गुप्ताङ्ग अँठ्याई भने
'When men strive together, one with another, and the wife of the one hath drawn near to deliver her husband out of the hand of his smiter, and hath put forth her hand, and laid hold on his secrets,
12 त्यसको हात काटिदिनू । त्यसलाई नटिठ्याउनू ।
then thou hast cut off her hand, thine eye doth not spare.
13 तिमीहरूले आफ्नो झोलामा एउटै तौलको लागि कम र ज्यादा ओजन भएका ढकहरू नराख्नू ।
'Thou hast not in thy bag a stone and a stone, a great and a small.
14 तिमीहरूको घरमा पनि एउटै नापको लागि फरक किसिमका माना-पाथी नहोऊन् ।
Thou hast not in thy house an ephah and an ephah, a great and a small.
15 तिमीहरूसित सिद्ध र ठिक तौलका ढकसातै माना-पाथीहरू हुनुपर्छ ताकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुने देशमा तिमीहरूका आयु लामो होस् ।
Thou hast a stone complete and just, thou hast an ephah complete and just, so that they prolong thy days on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee;
16 किनकि यस्ता कुराहरू गर्ने अर्थात् बेइमानीपूर्वक काम गर्ने सबै परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको लागि घृणित हुन् ।
for the abomination of Jehovah thy God [is] any one doing these things, any one doing iniquity.
17 तिमीहरू मिश्रबाट आउँदा बाटोमा अमालेकीहरूले गरेको कुरो याद राख्नू ।
'Remember that which Amalek hath done to thee in the way, in your going out from Egypt,
18 तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई बाटोमा भेटे र थाकेर हैरान भएकाहरू सबैलाई तिनीहरूले आक्रमण गरे । तिनीहरूले परमेश्वरको आदर गरेनन् ।
that he hath met thee in the way, and smiteth in all those feeble behind thee (and thou wearied and fatigued), and is not fearing God.
19 त्यसकारण, परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले अधिकार गर्ने देशमा ल्याउनुहुँदा तिमीहरूका वरिपरि भएका तिमीहरूका सबै शत्रुबाट तिमीहरूलाई विश्राम दिनुभएपछि आकाशमुनि अमालेकीहरूको नाउँनिशानै मेटिदिन नभुल्नू ।
And it hath been, in Jehovah thy God's giving rest to thee, from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance to possess it — thou dost blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens — thou dost not forget.
