Par laulībām un šķiršanos
1 Ja kāds ņem sievu un laulājas ar to, bet vēlāk tā zaudē viņa vēlību, jo viņš pie tās atradis ko netīkamu, un viņš raksta tai šķiršanās rakstu, dod to viņai un sūta to projām no sava nama 2 un ja tā aiziet no viņa mājas un iet pie cita par sievu, 3 un arī nākamais vīrs sāk viņu nīst un raksta tai šķiršanās rakstu, dod to viņai un sūta projām no sava nama vai ja nākamais vīrs, kas to ņēmis par sievu, nomirst, 4 tad viņas iepriekšējais vīrs, kas viņu bija sūtījis projām, nevar atkal ņemt viņu par sievu, jo viņa ir kļuvusi nešķīsta. Tas Kungam ir pretīgi, neapgrēcini to zemi, ko Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod par mantojumu.
5 Ja vīrs apņem jaunu sievu, tad lai viņš neiet karā un netiek nodarbināts ar kādu darbu, gadu lai viņš ir tikai savam namam, lai priecē sievu, ko apņēmis.
Dažādi sadzīves likumi
6 Neviens lai neņem par ķīlu rokas dzirnas vai dzirnakmeni, jo tad viņš ņemtu ķīlā dzīvību!
7 Ja pieķer vīru, kas nolaupījis kādu no saviem brāļiem, Israēla dēliem, apgājies ar to kā ar vergu un pārdevis, tad laupītājs lai mirst, izsvel ļaunumu no sava vidus!
8 Piesargies no spitālības sērgas un sargies ļoti, dari visu, kā norādīs levītu priesteri, kā es tiem esmu pavēlējis, – ievērojiet un pildiet to!
9 Atceries, ko Kungs, tavs Dievs, darīja Mirjāmai, kad jūs nācāt no Ēģiptes!
10 Kad tu ko aizdod savam tuvākajam kā aizdevumu, tad neej viņa namā, lai ņemtu ķīlu. 11 Paliec ārpusē, un tas, kam tu aizdevi, lai iznes tev ķīlu ārā. 12 Ja tas vīrs ir nabags, nepaturi viņa ķīlu pa nakti. 13 Noteikti atdod viņam ķīlu līdz saules rietam, lai viņš var gulēt savās drānās un svētīt tevi, un tu būsi taisnīgs Kunga, sava Dieva, priekšā. 14 Neapspied algādzi, kas ir nabags un trūcīgs, ne savu brāli, ne svešinieku, kas tavā zemē un tavos vārtos. 15 Tajā pašā dienā dod viņam algu, kamēr saule nav norietējusi, jo viņš ir nabadzīgs un cer uz to no visas dvēseles, – ka viņš nebrēc par tevi uz Kungu, tas tev būs grēks.
16 Tēvi lai netiek nonāvēti par dēlu grēkiem, un dēli lai netiek nonāvēti par tēvu grēkiem, katrs lai tiek nonāvēts par savu grēku!
17 Nesagrozi svešinieka un bāreņa tiesu un neņem par ķīlu atraitnes drānas. 18 Atceries, ka tu biji vergs Ēģiptē un Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi no turienes ir izpircis, tādēļ es tev pavēlu visu šo ievērot.
19 Kad tu savā laukā novāc ražu un kādu kūlīti esi aizmirsis uz lauka, neej atpakaļ, lai to paņemtu, tas lai tiek svešiniekam, bārenim un atraitnei, lai Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētītu it visā, ko tu dari! 20 Kad tu lasīsi olīvas, tad nepārlasi, lai paliek svešiniekam, bārenim un atraitnei!
21 Kad novāksi vīnadārzu, tad nepārlasi, lai paliek svešiniekam, bārenim un atraitnei! 22 Atceries, ka tu biji vergs Ēģiptes zemē, tādēļ es tev pavēlu visu šo ievērot!
1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. 2 And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife . 3 And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife; 4 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 thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
5 ¶ When a man hath 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 hath taken.
6 ¶ No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he taketh a man’s life to pledge.
7 ¶ If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.
8 ¶ Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do. 9 Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way, after that ye were come forth out of Egypt.
10 ¶ When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into his house to fetch his pledge. 11 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee. 12 And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge: 13 In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God.
14 ¶ Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within thy gates: 15 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto thee. 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.
17 ¶ Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow’s raiment to pledge: 18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
19 ¶ When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands. 20 When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow. 21 When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow. 22 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
