Deuteronomio 24

1 Cuando alguno tomare mujer y se casare con ella, si después no le agradare por haber hallado en ella alguna cosa torpe, escribirle ha carta de repudio, y dársela ha en su mano, y enviarla ha de su casa.

When a man has taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favor in his eyes, because he has found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorce, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.

2 Y salida de su casa, irse ha, y casarse ha con otro varón.

And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife.

3 Y si la aborreciere el varón postrero, y le escribiere carta de repudio, y se la diere en su mano, y la enviare de su casa, o si muriere el varón postrero, que la tomó para sí por mujer;

And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorce, and gives it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;

4 No podrá su marido el primero, que la envió, volverla a tomar, para que sea su mujer, después que fue inmunda, porque es abominación delante de Jehová, y no contaminarás la tierra, que Jehová tu Dios te da por heredad.

Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and you shall not cause the land to sin, which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance.

5 Cuando tomare alguno mujer nueva, no saldrá a la guerra, ni pasará sobre él alguna cosa: libre será en su casa por un año para alegrar a su mujer que tomó.

When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he has taken.

6 No tomarás por prenda la muela de abajo y la muela de arriba; porque es prendar la vida.

No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he takes a man’s life to pledge.

7 Cuando fuere hallado alguno que haya hurtado persona de sus hermanos los hijos de Israel, y hubiere mercadeado con ella, o la hubiere vendido, el tal ladrón morirá, y quitarás el mal de en medio de ti.

If a man be found stealing any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and makes merchandise of him, or sells him; then that thief shall die; and you shall put evil away from among you.

8 Guárdate de llaga de lepra, guardando mucho, y haciendo según todo lo que os enseñaren los sacerdotes Levitas; como les he mandado lo guardaréis para hacer.

Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so you shall observe to do.

9 Acuérdate de lo que hizo Jehová tu Dios a María en el camino, después que salisteis de Egipto.

Remember what the LORD your God did to Miriam by the way, after that you were come forth out of Egypt.

10 Cuando dieres a tu prójimo alguna cosa emprestada, no entrarás en su casa para tomarle prenda:

When you do lend your brother any thing, you shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge.

11 Fuera estarás, y el hombre a quien prestaste te sacará a fuera la prenda.

You shall stand abroad, and the man to whom you do lend shall bring out the pledge abroad to you.

12 Y si fuere hombre pobre, no duermas con su prenda.

And if the man be poor, you shall not sleep with his pledge:

13 Volviendo le volverás la prenda cuando el sol se ponga, porque duerma en su ropa; y bendecirte ha, y a ti será justicia delante de Jehová tu Dios.

In any case you shall deliver him the pledge again when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless you: and it shall be righteousness to you before the LORD your God.

14 No hagas violencia al jornalero pobre y menesteroso así de tus hermanos como de tus extranjeros, que están en tu tierra en tus ciudades.

You shall not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of your brothers, or of your strangers that are in your land within your gates:

15 En su día le darás su jornal, y el sol no se pondrá sobre él, porque pobre es, y con el sustenta su vida: porque no clame contra ti a Jehová, y sea en ti pecado.

At his day you shall give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down on it; for he is poor, and sets his heart on it: lest he cry against you to the LORD, and it be sin to you.

16 Los padres no morirán por los hijos, ni los hijos por los padres, cada uno morirá por su pecado.

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.

17 No torcerás el derecho del peregrino y del huérfano: ni tomarás por prenda la ropa de la viuda.

You shall not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow’s raiment to pledge:

18 Mas acuérdate que fuiste siervo en Egipto, y de allí te rescató Jehová tu Dios: por tanto yo te mando que hagas esto.

But you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you there: therefore I command you to do this thing.

19 Cuando segares tu segada en tu campo, y olvidares alguna gavilla en el campo, no volverás a tomarla: del extranjero, o del huérfano, o de la viuda será: porque te bendiga Jehová tu Dios en toda obra de tus manos.

When you cut down your harvest in your field, and have forgot a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.

20 Cuando sacudieres tus olivas, no ramonearás tras ti: del extranjero, y del huérfano, y de la viuda será:

When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

21 Cuando vendimiares tu viña, no rebuscarás tras ti, del extranjero, y del huérfano, y de la viuda será.

When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

22 Y acuérdate que fuiste siervo en tierra de Egipto: por tanto yo te mando que hagas esto.

And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt: therefore I command you to do this thing.
