Deuteronomy 22

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 “If you see your brother’s ox or sheep wander astray, you shall not pass by. Instead, you shall lead them back to your brother.	1 Non videbis bovem fratris tui aut ovem errantem et praeteribis, sed reduces fratri tuo;
2 But if your brother is not near, or you do not know him, you shall lead them to your house, and they shall be with you until your brother seeks them and receives them.	2 si autem non est prope frater tuus nec nosti eum, duces in domum tuam, et erunt apud te quamdiu quaerat ea frater tuus et recipiat.
3 You shall act in a similar manner with his donkey, and his clothing, and all the belongings of your brother that have been lost. If you find it, you shall not neglect it, as if it belonged to a stranger.	3 Similiter facies de asino et de vestimento et de omni re fratris tui, quae perierit: si inveneris eam, ne subtrahas te.
4 If you see that your brother’s donkey or ox has fallen along the way, you shall not disregard it. Instead, you shall lift it up with him.	4 Si videris asinum fratris tui aut bovem cecidisse in via, non subtrahes te, sed sublevabis cum eo.
5 A woman shall not be clothed with manly apparel, nor shall a man make use of feminine apparel. For whoever does these things is abominable with God.	5 Non induetur mulier veste virili, nec vir utetur veste feminea: abominabilis enim apud Dominum Deum tuum est omnis, qui facit haec.
6 If, as you are walking along the way, you find a bird’s nest, in a tree or on the ground, and the mother is nurturing the young or the eggs, you shall not take her with her young.	6 Si ambulans per viam, in arbore vel in terra nidum avis inveneris et matrem pullis vel ovis desuper incubantem, non sumes eam de filiis,
7 Instead, you shall permit her to go, retaining the young that you have caught, so that it may be well with you, and you may live for a long time.	7 sed abire patieris matrem tenens filios, ut bene sit tibi, et longo vivas tempore.
8 When you build a new house, you shall make a wall around the roof. Otherwise, someone may slip and fall down violently, and so blood would be shed at your house, and you would be guilty.	8 Cum aedificaveris domum novam, facies murum tecto tuo per circuitum, ne adducas sanguinem super domum tuam et sis reus, labente aliquo in praeceps ruente.
9 You shall not sow your vineyard with another seed, lest both the seed that you have sown and what springs forth from the vineyard be sanctified together.	9 Non seres vineam tuam altero semine, ne et sementis, quam sevisti, et quae nascuntur ex vinea, pariter sanctificentur.
10 You shall not till with an ox and a donkey at the same time.	10 Non arabis in bove simul et asino.
11 You shall not wear a vestment which has been woven from both wool and linen.	11 Non indueris vestimento, quod ex lana linoque contextum est.
12 You shall make strings along the hem, at the four corners of your cloak, which covers you.	12 Funiculos facies per quattuor angulos pallii tui, quo operieris.
13 If a man takes a wife, and afterwards he has hatred for her,	13 Si duxerit vir uxorem et intraverit ad eam et postea odio habuerit eam
14 and so he seeks opportunities to dismiss her, imputing a very wicked name to her by saying, ‘I received this woman as a wife, and upon entering to her, I found her not to be a virgin,’	14 imputaveritque ei obiciens ei nomen pessimum et dixerit: “Uxorem hanc accepi et ingressus ad eam non inveni virginem”,
15 then her father and mother shall take her, and they shall bring with them the signs of her virginity, to the elders of the city who are at the gate.	15 tollent pater et mater eius et ferent secum signa virginitatis eius ad seniores urbis, qui in porta sunt,
16 And the father shall say: ‘I gave my daughter to this man as a wife. And because he hates her,	16 et dicet pater: “Filiam meam dedi huic uxorem, quam, quia odit,
17 he accuses her with a very wicked name, by saying: “I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.” But behold, these are the signs of my daughter’s virginity.’ And they shall spread the clothing before the elders of the city.	17 imponit ei nomen pessimum, ut dicat: Non inveni filiam tuam virginem; et ecce haec sunt signa virginitatis filiae meae”. Expandent vestimentum coram se nioribus civitatis.
18 And the elders of that city shall apprehend that man and beat him.	18 Apprehendentque senes urbis illius virum et verberabunt illum
19 Moreover, they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, which he will give to the father of the girl, because he has committed slander, with a very wicked name, against a virgin of Israel. And he shall have her as a wife, and he cannot dismiss her throughout all the days of his life.	19 condemnantes insuper centum siclis argenti, quos dabunt patri puellae, quoniam diffamavit nomen pessimum super virginem Israel; habebitque eam uxorem et non poterit dimittere eam omnibus diebus vitae suae.
20 But if what he has claimed is true and virginity is not found in the girl,	20 Quod si verum est, quod obicit, et non est in puella inventa virginitas,
21 then they shall throw her down, outside the doors of her father’s house, and the men of that city shall stone her to death, and she shall die. For she has acted wickedly in Israel, in that she fornicated in her father’s house. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.	21 educent eam ad fores domus patris sui, et lapidibus obruent viri civitatis eius, et morietur, quoniam fecit nefas in Israel, ut fornicaretur in domo patris sui; et auferes malum de medio tui.
22 If a man sleeps with the wife of another, then they shall both die, that is, the adulterer and the adulteress. And so shall you take away the evil from Israel.	22 Si inventus fuerit vir dormiens cum uxore alterius, uterque morietur, id est adulter et adultera; et auferes malum de Israel.
23 If a man has betrothed a girl who is a virgin, and if someone finds her in the city and he lies with her,	23 Si puellam virginem desponsatam viro invenerit aliquis in civitate et concubuerit cum illa,
24 then you shall lead them both out to the gate of that city, and they shall be stoned to death: the girl, because she did not cry out though she was in the city; the man, because he has humiliated the wife of his neighbor. And so shall you take away the evil from your midst.	24 educetis utrumque ad portam civitatis illius et lapidibus obruetis, et morientur: puella quia non clamavit, cum esset in civitate, vir quia humiliavit uxorem proximi sui; et auferes malum de medio tui.
25 But if a man discovers, in the countryside, a girl who has been betrothed, and, apprehending her, he lies with her, then he alone shall die.	25 Sin autem in agro reppererit vir puellam, quae desponsata est, et apprehendens concubuerit cum illa, ipse morietur solus;
26 The girl shall suffer nothing, nor is she guilty unto death. For just as a robber rises up against his brother and slays his life, so also did the girl suffer greatly.	26 puella nihil patietur nec est rea mortis, quoniam sicut vir consurgit contra fratrem suum et occidit eum, ita et puella perpessa est:
27 She was alone in the field. She cried out, and there was no one nearby, who might deliver her.	27 sola erat in agro, clamavit puella desponsata, et nullus affuit, qui liberaret eam.
28 If a man find a girl who is a virgin, who does not have a betrothal, and, taking her, he lies with her, and the matter is brought to judgment,	28 Si invenerit vir puellam virginem, quae non habet sponsum, et apprehendens concubuerit cum ea, et res ad iudicium venerit,
29 then he who slept with her shall give to the father of the girl fifty shekels of silver, and he shall have her as a wife, because he has humiliated her. He cannot dismiss her, throughout all the days of his life.	29 dabit, qui dormivit cum ea, patri puellae quinquaginta siclos argenti et habebit eam uxorem, quia humiliavit illam: non poterit dimittere eam cunctis diebus vitae suae.
30 No man shall take his father’s wife, nor remove her covering.”
