< Deuteronômio 24 >

1 Quando algum tomar mulher e se casar com ela, se não lhe agradar por haver achado nela alguma coisa ofensiva, lhe escreverá carta de divórcio, e a entregará em sua mão, e a despedirá de sua casa.
“Suppose a man marries a woman and later decides that he does not want her because there is something about her that he doesn’t like. And suppose he writes on paper that he is divorcing her, and he gives the paper to her [SYN] and sends her away from his house.
2 E saída de sua casa, poderá ir e casar-se com outro homem.
Then suppose that she goes and marries another man,
3 E se a aborrecer este último, e lhe escrever carta de divórcio, e a entregar em sua mão, e a despedir de sua casa; ou se morrer o posterior homem que a tomou para si por mulher,
and that man [later also] decides that he does not like her, and he also writes on paper that he is divorcing her, and he sends her away from his house. Or, suppose that the second husband dies.
4 Não poderá seu primeiro marido, que a despediu, trazê-la de volta a tomar para que seja sua mulher, depois que foi contaminada; porque é abominação diante do SENHOR, e não hás de perverter a terra que o SENHOR teu Deus te dá por herança.
If either of those things happens, her first husband must not marry her again. He must consider that she has become unacceptable to Yahweh. Yahweh would consider it to be disgusting [if he married her again]. You must not sin [MTY] by doing that in the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you.”
5 Quando tomar alguém mulher nova, não sairá à guerra, nem em nenhuma coisa se lhe ocupará; livre estará em sua casa por ano, para alegrar à sua mulher que tomou.
“When some man has recently become married, he must not [be required to] become a soldier in the army or be required to do any other work [for the government] for one year [after being married]. He should stay happily at home with his wife for that year.
6 Não tomarás em penhor a pedra de moinho, nem a de baixo nem a de cima: porque seria penhorar a vida.
“Anyone who lends money to someone else [is allowed to require that person to give him something] to guarantee [that he will pay back the money that he borrowed. But] he must not take from him his (millstone/stone for grinding grain). That would be taking [the millstone that his family needs to grind the grain to make the bread] they need to stay alive.
7 Quando for achado alguém que tenha furtado pessoa de seus irmãos os filhos de Israel, e houver comercializado com ela, ou a houver vendido, o tal ladrão morrerá, e tirarás o mal do meio de ti.
“If someone kidnaps/steals a fellow Israeli to cause that person to become his slave or to sell him [to become someone else’s slave], you must execute the person who did that. By doing that, you will get rid of this evil among you.
8 Guarda-te de chaga de lepra, observando com empenho, e fazendo segundo tudo o que vos ensinarem os sacerdotes levitas: cuidareis de fazer como lhes mandei.
“If you are suffering from (leprosy/a dreaded skin disease), be sure to do everything that the priests, who are from the tribe of Levi, tell you to do. Obey carefully the instructions that I have given to them.
9 Lembra-te do que fez o SENHOR teu Deus a Miriã no caminho, depois que saístes do Egito.
Do not forget what Yahweh our God did to Miriam, [when she became a leper], after your ancestors left Egypt.
10 Quando deres a teu próximo alguma coisa emprestada, não entrarás em sua casa para tomar-lhe penhor:
“When you lend something to someone, do not go into his house to take the cloak that he says that he will give you to guarantee [that he will return what he has borrowed].
11 Fora estarás, e o homem a quem emprestaste, te tirará fora o penhor.
Stand outside his house, and the man to whom you are lending something will bring the cloak out to you.
12 E se for homem pobre, não durmas com seu penhor:
But if he is poor, do not keep that cloak all night.
13 Precisamente lhe devolverás o penhor quando o sol se ponha, para que durma em sua roupa, e te bendiga: e te será justiça diante do SENHOR teu Deus.
When the sun sets, take the cloak back to him, in order that he may wear it while he sleeps. If you do that, he will [ask God to] bless you, and Yahweh our God will be pleased with you.
14 Não faças injustiça ao empregado pobre e necessitado, tanto de teus irmãos como de teus estrangeiros que estão em tua terra em tuas cidades:
“Do not mistreat any servants whom you have hired who are poor and needy [DOU], whether they are Israelis or foreigners who are living in your town.
15 Em seu dia lhe darás seu salário, e não se porá o sol sem o dar a ele: pois é pobre, e com ele sustenta sua vida: para que não clame contra ti ao SENHOR, e seja em ti pecado.
Every day, before sunset, you must pay/give them the money that they have earned. They are poor and they need to get their pay. If you do not pay them right away, they will cry out against you to Yahweh, and he will punish [MTY] you for having sinned like that.
16 Os pais não morrerão pelos filhos, nem os filhos pelos pais; cada um morrerá por seu pecado.
“Parents must not be executed for crimes that their children have committed, and children must not be executed for crimes that their parents have committed. People should be executed only for the crimes that they themselves have committed.
17 Não distorcerás o direito do peregrino e do órfão; nem tomarás por penhor a roupa da viúva:
“You must [LIT] do for foreigners [who live] among you and for orphans what the laws state must be done for them. And [if you lend something to] a widow, do not take her coat from her as a guarantee [that she will return it].
18 Mas lembra-te que foste servo no Egito, e dali te resgatou o SENHOR teu Deus: portanto, eu te mando que faças isto.
Do not forget that [you had great hardships/troubles when] you were slaves in Egypt, and Yahweh our God rescued you from there. That is why I am commanding you [to help others who have troubles].
19 Quando colheres tua plantação em teu campo, e esqueceres algum feixe no campo, não voltarás a tomá-lo: para o estrangeiro, para o órfão, e para a viúva será; para que te abençoe o SENHOR teu Deus em toda obra de tuas mãos.
“When you harvest your crops, if you have forgotten [that you left] one bundle in the field, do not go back to get it. [Leave it there] for foreigners, orphans, and widows. If you do that, Yahweh will bless you in everything that you do.
20 Quando sacudires tuas olivas, não recorrerás os ramos atrás de ti: para o estrangeiro, para o órfão, e para a viúva será.
And when you have harvested/picked all your olives from the trees once, do not go back [to pick the ones that are still] on the trees.
21 Quando vindimares tua vinha, não coletarás os restos de atrás de ti: para o estrangeiro, para o órfão, e para a viúva será.
[Similarly], when you pick the grapes in your vineyard, do not go back a second time [to try to find more]. Leave them for the foreigners, orphans, and widows [among you].
22 E lembra-te que foste servo na terra do Egito: portanto, eu te mando que faças isto.
Do not forget that [Yahweh was kind to you when] you were slaves in Egypt. That is why I am commanding you [to be kind to those who are needy].”
