申命記 23
1 「凡外腎受傷的，或被閹割的，不可入耶和華的會。
No man injured by crushing or cutting off may enter the assembly of Yahweh.
2 「私生子不可入耶和華的會；他的子孫，直到十代，也不可入耶和華的會。
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 「亞捫人或是摩押人不可入耶和華的會；他們的子孫，雖過十代，也永不可入耶和華的會。
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 因為你們出埃及的時候，他們沒有拿食物和水在路上迎接你們，又因他們雇了美索不達米亞的毗奪人比珥的兒子巴蘭來咒詛你們。
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 然而耶和華－你的上帝不肯聽從巴蘭，卻使那咒詛的言語變為祝福的話，因為耶和華－你的上帝愛你。
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 你一生一世永不可求他們的平安和他們的利益。
You must never seek their peace or prosperity, during all your days.
7 「不可憎惡以東人，因為他是你的弟兄。不可憎惡埃及人，因為你在他的地上作過寄居的。
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 他們第三代子孫可以入耶和華的會。」
The descendants of the third generation that are born to them may belong to the assembly of Yahweh.
9 「你出兵攻打仇敵，就要遠避諸惡。
When you march out as an army against your enemies, then you must keep yourselves from every evil thing.
10 「你們中間，若有人夜間偶然夢遺，不潔淨，就要出到營外，不可入營；
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 到傍晚的時候，他要用水洗澡，及至日落了才可以入營。
When evening comes, he must bathe himself in water; when the sun goes down, he will come back inside the camp.
12 「你在營外也該定出一個地方作為便所。
You must have a place also outside the camp to which you will go;
13 在你器械之中當預備一把鍬，你出營外便溺以後，用以鏟土，轉身掩蓋。
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 因為耶和華－你的上帝常在你營中行走，要救護你，將仇敵交給你，所以你的營理當聖潔，免得他見你那裏有污穢，就離開你。」
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 「若有奴僕脫了主人的手，逃到你那裏，你不可將他交付他的主人。
You must not give back to his master a slave who has escaped from his master.
16 他必在你那裏與你同住，在你的城邑中，要由他選擇一個所喜悅的地方居住；你不可欺負他。
Let him live with you, in whatever town he chooses. Do not oppress him.
17 「以色列的女子中不可有妓女；以色列的男子中不可有孌童。
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 娼妓所得的錢，或孌童所得的價，你不可帶入耶和華－你上帝的殿還願，因為這兩樣都是耶和華－你上帝所憎惡的。
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 「你借給你弟兄的，或是錢財或是糧食，無論甚麼可生利的物，都不可取利。
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 借給外邦人可以取利，只是借給你弟兄不可取利。這樣，耶和華－你上帝必在你所去得為業的地上和你手裏所辦的一切事上賜福與你。
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 「你向耶和華－你的上帝許願，償還不可遲延；因為耶和華－你的上帝必定向你追討，你不償還就有罪。
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 你若不許願，倒無罪。
But if you will refrain from making a vow, it will be no sin for you.
23 你嘴裏所出的，就是你口中應許甘心所獻的，要照你向耶和華－你上帝所許的願謹守遵行。
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 「你進了鄰舍的葡萄園，可以隨意吃飽了葡萄，只是不可裝在器皿中。
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 你進了鄰舍站着的禾稼，可以用手摘穗子，只是不可用鐮刀割取禾稼。」
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.
