Второзаконие 25

1 Аще же будет пря между человеки, и приидут на суд, и да судят, и оправдят праваго, и осудят нечестиваго:

If there is a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, and the judges judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked;

2 и будет, аще достоин есть ран нечестивый, да поставиши его пред судиями, и да биют его пред ними по нечестию его:

and it shall be if the wicked man deserves to be beaten, that the judge shall make him lie down and be beaten in his presence with a number of stripes, according to his guilt.

3 и числом четыредесять ран да наложат ему, и да не приложат к сему: аще же приложат паче ран сих бити его множае, срам будет брату твоему пред тобою.

He may give him forty stripes and no more. Otherwise, if he should go on and beat him with more stripes than these, your brother will be humiliated in your eyes.

4 Да не обротиши вола молотяща.

You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the grain.

5 Аше же живут братия вкупе, и умрет един от них, семене же не будет ему, да не будет жена умершаго иному мужу несродну: брат мужа ея да внидет к ней и поймет ю себе в жену, и да поживет с нею:

If brothers dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in to her, and take her to him as wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother to her.

6 и будет очроча, еже аще родится, да поставится во имя умершаго, и не погибнет имя его от Израиля.

It shall be, that the firstborn whom she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.

7 Аще же не восхощет человек пояти жены брата своего, да приидет жена ко вратом пред старейшины и речет: не хощет брат мужа моего возставити имя брата своего во Израили, не восхоте брат мужа моего:

If the man doesn't want to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, "My husband's brother refuses to raise up to his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother to me."

8 и да призовут его старейшины града того и рекут ему, и став речет: не хощу пояти ю:

Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him: and if he stand, and say, "I do not want to take her";

9 и приступивши жена брата его к нему пред старейшины, и изует сапог его един от ноги его, и да плюнет на лице его, и отвещавши речет: сице да сотворят человеку, иже не созиждет дому брата своего во Израили:

then his brother's wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, "So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother's house."

10 и прозовется имя его во Израили дом изутаго из сапога.

His name shall be called in Israel, The house of him who has his shoe untied.

11 Аще же биются человека два вкупе, человек с братом своим, и приступит жена единаго от них отяти мужа своего от руки биющаго и, и простерши руку свою, имет за ятра его,

When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who strikes him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the private parts;

12 да отсечеши руку ея: да не пощадит око твое ея.

then you shall cut off her hand, your eye shall have no pity.

13 Да не будет во влагалищи твоем мерило и мерило, великое и малое,

You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, a great and a small.

14 да не будет в дому твоем мера и мера, велика и мала:

You shall not have in your house diverse measures, a great and a small.

15 мерило истинно и праведно да будет тебе, и мера истинна и праведна да будет тебе, да многи дни будеши на земли, юже Господь Бог твой дает тебе в жребий,

You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which Jehovah your God gives you.

16 яко мерзость Господеви Богу твоему всяк творяй сия, всяк творяй неправду.

For all who do such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to Jehovah your God.

17 Помяни, елика тебе сотвори Амалик на пути, исходящу тебе из Египта:

Remember what Amalek did to you by the way as you came forth out of Egypt;

18 како сопротивоста тебе на пути и посече задний полк твой утружден за тобою: ты же алчен был еси и утружден: и не убояся Бога:

how he met you by the way, and struck the hindmost of you, all who lagged behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he did not fear God.

19 и будет егда упокоит тя Господь Бог твой от всех враг твоих, иже окрест тебе на земли, юже Господь Бог твой дает тебе в жребий, еже наследити ю, да погубиши имя Амаликово от земли, яже под небесем, и да не забудеши.

Therefore it shall be, when Jehovah your God has given you rest from all your enemies all around, in the land which Jehovah your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky; you shall not forget.
