Deuteronomii 23
1 Non intravit eunuchus attritis vel amputatis testiculis et abscisso veretro, ecclesiam Domini.
He that is wounded in the stones, or has his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
2 Non ingredietur mamzer, hoc est, de scorto natus, in ecclesiam Domini, usque ad decimam generationem.
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
3 Ammonites et Moabites etiam post decimam generationem non intrabunt ecclesiam Domini, in æternum:
An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:
4 quia noluerunt vobis occurrere cum pane et aqua in via quando egressi estis de Ægypto: et quia conduxerunt contra te Balaam filium Beor de Mesopotamia Syriæ, ut malediceret tibi:
Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when you came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
5 et noluit Dominus Deus tuus audire Balaam, vertitque maledictionem eius in benedictionem tuam, eo quod diligeret te.
Nevertheless the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God loved you.
6 Non facies cum eis pacem, nec quæras eis bona cunctis diebus vitæ tuæ in sempiternum.
You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days for ever.
7 Non abominaberis Idumæum, quia frater tuus est: nec Ægyptium, quia advena fuisti in terra eius.
You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother: you shall not abhor an Egyptian; because you were a stranger in his land.
8 Qui nati fuerint ex eis, tertia generatione intrabunt in ecclesiam Domini.
The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.
9 Quando egressus fueris adversus hostes tuos in pugnam, custodies te ab omni re mala.
When the host goes forth against your enemies, then keep you from every wicked thing.
10 Si fuerit inter vos homo, qui nocturno pollutus sit somnio, egredietur extra castra,
If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chances him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
11 et non revertetur, priusquam ad vesperam lavetur aqua: et post solis occasum regredietur in castra.
But it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall wash himself with water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again.
12 Habebis locum extra castra, ad quem egrediaris ad requisita naturæ,
You shall have a place also without the camp, where you shall go forth abroad:
13 gerens paxillum in balteo. Cumque sederis, fodies per circuitum, et egesta humo operies
And you shall have a paddle on your weapon; and it shall be, when you will ease yourself abroad, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn back and cover that which comes from you:
14 quo revelatus es (Dominus enim Deus tuus ambulat in medio castrorum, ut eruat te, et tradat tibi inimicos tuos) et sint castra tua sancta, et nihil in eis appareat fœditatis ne derelinquat te.
For the LORD your God walks in the middle of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore shall your camp be holy: that he see no unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
15 Non trades servum domino suo, qui ad te confugerit.
You shall not deliver to his master the servant which is escaped from his master to you:
16 Habitabit tecum in loco, qui ei placuerit, et in una urbium tuarum requiescet: ne contristes eum.
He shall dwell with you, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of your gates, where it likes him best: you shall not oppress him.
17 Non erit meretrix de filiabus Israel, nec scortator de filiis Israel.
There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18 Non offeres mercedem prostibuli, nec pretium canis in domo Domini Dei tui, quidquid illud est quod voveris: quia abominatio est utrumque apud Dominum Deum tuum.
You shall not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow: for even both these are abomination to the LORD your God.
19 Non fœnerabis fratri tuo ad usuram pecuniam, nec fruges, nec quamlibet aliam rem:
You shall not lend on usury to your brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent on usury:
20 sed alieno. Fratri autem tuo absque usura id, quo indiget, commodabis: ut benedicat tibi Dominus Deus tuus in omni opere tuo in Terra, ad quam ingredieris possidendam.
To a stranger you may lend on usury; but to your brother you shall not lend on usury: that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you set your hand to in the land where you go to possess it.
21 Cum votum voveris Domino Deo tuo, non tardabis reddere: quia requiret illud Dominus Deus tuus. Et si moratus fueris, reputabitur tibi in peccatum.
When you shall vow a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not slack to pay it: for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
22 Si nolueris polliceri, absque peccato eris.
But if you shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in you.
23 Quod autem semel egressum est de labiis tuis, observabis, et facies sicut promisisti Domino Deo tuo, et propria voluntate et ore tuo locutus es.
That which is gone out of your lips you shall keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as you have vowed to the LORD your God, which you have promised with your mouth.
24 Ingressus vineam proximi tui, comede uvas quantum tibi placuerit: foras autem ne efferas tecum.
When you come into your neighbor’s vineyard, then you may eat grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your vessel.
25 Si intraveris in segetem amici tui, franges spicas, et manu conteres: falce autem non metes.
When you come into the standing corn of your neighbor, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle to your neighbor’s standing corn.
