Deuteronomy 24

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 "When a man, after marrying a woman and having relations with her, is later displeased with her because he finds in her something indecent, and therefore he writes out a bill of divorce and hands it to her, thus dismissing her from his house:	1 Si acceperit homo uxorem et habuerit eam, et non invene rit gratiam ante oculos eius propter aliquam foeditatem, et scripserit libellum repudii dederitque in manu illius et dimiserit eam de domo sua,
2 if on leaving his house she goes and becomes the wife of another man,	2 cumque egressa alterius uxor facta fuerit,
3 and the second husband, too, comes to dislike her and dismisses her from his house by handing her a written bill of divorce; or if this second man who has married her, dies;	3 et ille quoque oderit eam dederitque ei libellum repudii et dimiserit de domo sua, vel mortuus fuerit,
4 then her former husband, who dismissed her, may not again take her as his wife after she has become defiled. That would be an abomination before the LORD, and you shall not bring such guilt upon the land which the LORD, your God, is giving you as a heritage.	4 non poterit prior maritus recipere eam in uxorem, quia polluta est; hoc esset abominatio coram Domino. Ne peccare facias terram tuam, quam Dominus Deus tuus tradiderit tibi possidendam.
5 "When a man is newly wed, he need not go out on a military expedition, nor shall any public duty be imposed on him. He shall be exempt for one year for the sake of his family, to bring joy to the wife he has married.	5 Cum acceperit homo nuper uxorem, non procedet ad bellum, nec ei quippiam necessitatis iniungetur publicae, sed vacabit liber domui suae, ut uno anno laetetur cum uxore sua.
6 "No one shall take a hand mill or even its upper stone as a pledge for debt, for he would be taking the debtor's sustenance as a pledge.	6 Non accipies loco pignoris molam vel superiorem lapidem molarem, quia animam suam apposuit tibi.
7 "If any man is caught kidnaping a fellow Israelite in order to enslave him and sell him, the kidnaper shall be put to death. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.	7 Si deprehensus fuerit homo rapiens unum de fratribus suis de filiis Israel et, vendito eo, accipiens pretium, interficietur; et auferes malum de medio tui.
8 "In an attack of leprosy you shall be careful to observe exactly and to carry out all the directions of the levitical priests. Take care to act in accordance with the instructions I have given them.	8 Observa diligenter, si incurras plagam leprae, quaecumque docuerint vos sacerdotes levitici generis; quod praecepi eis, implete sollicite.
9 Remember what the LORD, your God, did to Miriam on the journey after you left Egypt.	9 Memento, quae fecerit Dominus Deus tuus Mariae in via, cum egrederemini de Aegypto.
10 "When you make a loan of any kind to your neighbor, you shall not enter his house to receive a pledge from him,	10 Cum mutuam dabis proximo tuo rem aliquam, non ingredieris domum eius, ut pignus auferas,
11 but shall wait outside until the man to whom you are making the loan brings his pledge outside to you.	11 sed stabis foris, et ille tibi pignus proferet, quod habuerit.
12 If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep in the mantle he gives as a pledge,	12 Sin autem pauper est, non pernoctabit apud te pignus,
13 but shall return it to him at sunset that he himself may sleep in it. Then he will bless you, and it will be a good deed of yours before the LORD, your God.	13 sed statim reddes ei ad solis occasum, ut dormiens in vestimento suo benedicat tibi, et habeas iustitiam coram Domino Deo tuo.
14 "You shall not defraud a poor and needy hired servant, whether he be one of your own countrymen or one of the aliens who live in your communities.	14 Non negabis mercedem indigentis et pauperis ex fratribus tuis sive advenis, qui tecum morantur in terra intra portas tuas,
15 You shall pay him each day's wages before sundown on the day itself, since he is poor and looks forward to them. Otherwise he will cry to the LORD against you, and you will be held guilty.	15 sed eadem die reddes ei pretium laboris sui ante solis occasum, quia pauper est, et illud desiderat anima sua; ne clamet contra te ad Dominum, et reputetur tibi in peccatum.
16 "Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children for their fathers; only for his own guilt shall a man be put to death.	16 Non occidentur patres pro filiis, nec filii pro patribus, sed unusquisque pro peccato suo morietur.
17 "You shall not violate the rights of the alien or of the orphan, nor take the clothing of a widow as a pledge.	17 Non pervertes iudicium advenae et pupilli nec auferes pignoris loco viduae vestimentum.
18 For, remember, you were once slaves in Egypt, and the LORD, your God, ransomed you from there; that is why I command you to observe this rule.	18 Memento quod servieris in Aegypto, et eruerit te Dominus Deus tuus inde; idcirco praecipio tibi, ut facias hanc rem.
19 "When you reap the harvest in your field and overlook a sheaf there, you shall not go back to get it; let it be for the alien, the orphan or the widow, that the LORD, your God, may bless you in all your undertakings.	19 Quando messueris segetem in agro tuo et oblitus manipulum reliqueris, non reverteris, ut tollas eum, sed advenam et pupillum et viduam auferre patieris, ut benedicat tibi Dominus Deus tuus in omni opere manuum tuarum.
20 When you knock down the fruit of your olive trees, you shall not go over the branches a second time; let what remains be for the alien, the orphan and the widow.	20 Si fruges collegeris olivarum, quidquid remanserit in arboribus, non reverteris, ut colligas, sed relinques advenae, pupillo ac viduae.
21 When you pick your grapes, you shall not go over the vineyard a second time; let what remains be for the alien, the orphan, and the widow.	21 Si vindemiaveris vineam tuam, non colliges remanentes racemos, sed cedent in usus advenae, pupilli ac viduae.
22 For remember that you were once slaves in Egypt; that is why I command you to observe this rule.	22 Memento quod et tu servieris in Aegypto; et idcirco praecipio tibi, ut facias hanc rem.
