Deuteronomy 24
1 When a man takes a wife and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a certificate of divorce, put it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
Naar en Mand tager en Hustru og ægter hende, og hun ikke finder Naade for hans Øjne, fordi han fandt ublu Handel hos hende, og han da skriver hende et Skilsmissebrev og giver det i hendes Haand og lader hende fare bort fra sit Hus,
2 When she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.
og hun da gaar ud af hans Hus og gaar bort og bliver en anden Mands,
3 If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a certificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife;
og den samme anden Mand faar Had til hende og skriver hende et Skilsmissebrev og giver i hendes Haand og lader hende fare bort fra sit Hus; eller om den anden Mand dør, som tog hende til Hustru:
4 her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled; for that would be an abomination to Yahweh. You shall not cause the land to sin, which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance.
Da maa ikke hendes første Mand, som lod hende fare, atter tage hende til sin Hustru, siden hun er bleven uren, thi det er en Vederstyggelighed for Herrens Ansigt; og du skal ikke gøre det Land syndigt, som Herren din Gud giver dig til Arv.
5 When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be assigned any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.
Naar en Mand nylig har taget en Hustru, skal han ikke drage ud i Striden, og man skal ingen Tynge lægge paa ham; han skal være fri i sit Hus eet Aar og være glad med sin Hustru, som han har taget.
6 No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone as a pledge, for he takes a life in pledge.
Man skal ikke tage begge Møllestene eller den øverste Møllesten til Pant; thi saa tager man Livet til Pant.
7 If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So you shall remove the evil from among you.
Om nogen findes, som stjæler en Person af sine Brødre af Israels Børn og driver Handel med ham eller sælger ham, da skal samme Tyv dø, og du skal borttage den onde fra dig.
8 Be careful in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently and do according to all that the Levitical priests teach you. As I commanded them, so you shall observe to do.
Tag dig i Vare for Spedalskheds Plage, saa at du tager vel Vare paa og gør efter alt det, som Præsterne, Leviterne skulle lære eder; eftersom jeg har budet dem, skulle I tage Vare paa at gøre.
9 Remember what Yahweh your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.
Kom i Hu, hvad Herren, din Gud gjorde ved Maria paa Vejen, der I droge ud af Ægypten.
10 When you lend your neighbor any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge.
Dersom du udlaaner til din Næste noget Laan, da skal du ikke gaa ind i hans Hus og tage hans Pant.
11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge outside to you.
Du skal staa udenfor, og den Mand, hvem du har laant noget, skal bære Pantet ud til dig udenfor.
12 If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep with his pledge.
Men dersom han er en nødlidende Mand, da skal du ikke lægge dig til Hvile med hans Pant.
13 You shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment and bless you. It shall be righteousness to you before Yahweh your God.
Men du skal give ham Pantet tilbage, naar Solen gaar ned, at han kan lægge sig i sit Klædebon og velsigne dig; og det skal være dig en Retfærdighed for Herren din Guds Ansigt.
14 You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who are in your land within your gates.
Du skal ikke gøre en nødlidende og en fattig Daglønner Uret, være sig af dine Brødre eller af dine fremmede, som ere i dit Land inden dine Porte.
15 In his day you shall give him his wages, neither shall the sun go down on it, for he is poor and sets his heart on it, lest he cry against you to Yahweh, and it be sin to you.
Du skal give ham hans Løn paa hans Dag, og Solen skal ikke gaa ned derover; thi han er nødlidende, og til den sætter han sin Hu; at han ikke skal raabe over dig til Herren, og det skal være dig til Synd.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers. Every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
Forældre skulle ikke dødes for Børn, og Børn skulle ikke dødes for Forældrene; de skulle dødes hver for sin Synd.
17 You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, nor take a widow’s clothing in pledge;
Du skal ikke bøje Retten for den fremmede, den faderløse, og ej tage en Enkes Klædebon til Pant.
18 but you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
Og du skal komme i Hu, at du var en Træl i Ægypten, og Herren din Gud udløste dig derfra; derfor byder jeg dig at gøre denne Gerning.
19 When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
Naar du høster din Høst paa din Ager og har glemt et Neg paa Ageren, da skal du ikke vende tilbage at tage det; det skal høre den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken til, paa det at Herren din Gud maa velsigne dig i al dine Hænders Gerning.
20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Naar du ryster dit Olietræ, da skal du ikke siden efter gennemsøge Grenene; det skal høre den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken til.
21 When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean it after yourselves. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
Naar du plukker din Vingaard, da skal du ikke siden eftersanke; det skal høre den fremmede, den faderløse og Enken til.
22 You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command you to do this thing.
Og du skal komme i Hu, at du var en Træl i Ægyptens Land, derfor byder jeg dig at gøre denne Gerning.
