Ulangan 25
1 Misalkan dua orang Israel pergi ke pengadilan untuk mengadukan suatu perkara, lalu yang seorang dinyatakan tidak bersalah, dan yang lain bersalah.
If there be a controversy between men, and they come nigh unto a court of justice, and they judge them; and they justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked:
2 Kalau yang bersalah dijatuhi hukuman cambuk, hakim harus menyuruh dia menelungkup. Jumlah cambukan tergantung dari kejahatan yang telah dilakukannya,
Then shall it be, if the guilty man deserve to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to the degree of his fault, by a [certain] number.
3 tetapi tidak boleh lebih dari empat puluh kali. Kalau lebih, berarti orang itu dihina di depan umum.
Forty stripes may he give him, not more; so that he shall not exceed to have him beaten above these with too many stripes, and thy brother be thus rendered vile before thy eyes.
4 Jangan memberangus mulut sapi yang sedang menebah gandum."
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he thresheth out the corn.
5 "Kalau orang-orang yang bersaudara tinggal bersama, lalu salah seorang dari mereka mati tanpa meninggalkan anak laki-laki, maka jandanya tak boleh kawin dengan orang lain di luar keluarga mendiang suaminya. Saudara almarhum wajib kawin dengan janda itu.
If brothers dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child: then shall the wife of the dead not be married abroad, unto a stranger; her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to himself for wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
6 Anak laki-laki sulung mereka harus dianggap anak saudara yang mati itu, supaya ia mempunyai keturunan di antara bangsa Israel.
And it shall be, that the first-born whom she may bear shall succeed in the name of his brother who is dead; so that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
7 Kalau orang itu tidak mau kawin dengan istri mendiang saudaranya, wanita itu harus pergi menghadap para pemuka kota dan berkata, 'Ipar saya tidak mau melakukan kewajibannya memberi kepada saudaranya seorang keturunan di antara bangsa Israel.'
And if the man have no desire to take his sister-in-law: then shall his sister-in-law go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel, he will not perform on me the duty of a husband's brother.
8 Lalu para pemuka kota harus memanggil orang itu dan bicara dengan dia. Kalau ia tetap menolak,
Then shall the elders of his city call him, and speak unto him; and if he persist, and say, I have no desire to take her:
9 istri mendiang saudaranya harus mendekati dia di depan para pemuka kota, mencabut sandal orang itu, meludahi mukanya dan berkata, 'Begini harus diperlakukan orang yang tak mau memberi keturunan kepada saudaranya.'
Then shall his sister-in-law come nigh unto him in the presence of the elders, and pull his shoe from off his foot, and spit out before him, and shall commence and say, Thus shall be done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house.
10 Keluarga orang itu akan dikenal di Israel sebagai 'Keluarga orang yang dicabut sandalnya.'"
And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of the barefooted.
11 "Kalau dua orang laki-laki sedang berkelahi dan istri yang seorang berusaha menolong suaminya dengan meremas kemaluan lawan suaminya,
When men strive together one with the other, and the wife of the one draweth near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets:
12 potonglah tangan wanita itu dan jangan kasihani dia.
Then shalt thou cut off her hand, thy eye shall not have pity.
13 Jangan menipu dengan memakai timbangan dan takaran yang tidak betul.
Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Thou shalt not have in thy house divers measures, a great and a small.
15 Pakailah timbangan dan takaran yang tepat supaya kamu panjang umur di negeri yang diberikan TUHAN Allahmu kepadamu.
A perfect and just weight shalt thou have, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have; in order that thy days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee;
16 TUHAN Allahmu benci kepada orang yang suka menipu."
For an abomination of the Lord thy God is every one that doth such things, every one that acteth unrighteously.
17 "Ingatlah bagaimana orang Amalek memperlakukan kamu pada waktu kamu dalam perjalanan keluar dari Mesir.
Remember what 'Amalek did unto thee, by the way, at your coming forth out of Egypt;
18 Mereka tidak takut kepada Allah dan menyerang kamu dari belakang ketika kamu sedang kelelahan dan kehabisan tenaga, lalu membunuh semua orang-orangmu yang dengan susah payah berjalan di belakang.
How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all that were feeble behind thee, when thou was faint and weary; and he feared not God.
19 Oleh sebab itu, kalau TUHAN Allahmu sudah memberi negeri itu kepadamu dan kamu aman dari semua musuh yang tinggal di sekelilingmu, semua orang Amalek itu harus kamu bunuh sehingga mereka tidak diingat lagi. Jangan lupa!"
And it shall come to pass, when the Lord thy God giveth thee rest from all thy enemies round about, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of 'Amalek from under the heavens: thou shalt not forget.
