Deuteronomium 22

VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Non videbis bovem fratris tui, aut ovem errantem, et præteribis : sed reduces fratri tuo,	1 "You shall not see your kinsman's ox or sheep driven astray without showing concern about it; see to it that it is returned to your kinsman.
2 etiamsi non est propinquus frater tuus, nec nosti eum : duces in domum tuam, et erunt apud te quamdiu quærat ea frater tuus, et recipiat.	2 If this kinsman does not live near you, or you do not know who he may be, take it to your own place and keep it with you until he claims it; then give it back to him.
3 Similiter facies de asino, et de vestimento, et de omni re fratris tui, quæ perierit : si inveneris eam, ne negligas quasi alienam.	3 You shall do the same with his ass, or his garment, or anything else which your kinsman loses and you happen to find; you may not be unconcerned about them.
4 Si videris asinum fratris tui aut bovem cecidisse in via, non despicies, sed sublevabis cum eo.	4 You shall not see your kinsman's ass or ox foundering on the road without showing concern about it; see to it that you help him lift it up.
5 Non induetur mulier veste virili, nec vir utetur veste feminea : abominabilis enim apud Deum est qui facit hæc.	5 "A woman shall not wear an article proper to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman's dress; for anyone who does such things is an abomination to the LORD, your God.
6 Si ambulans per viam, in arbore vel in terra nidum avis inveneris, et matrem pullis vel ovis desuper incubantem : non tenebis eam cum filiis,	6 "If, while walking along, you chance upon a bird's nest with young birds or eggs in it, in any tree or on the ground, and the mother bird is sitting on them, you shall not take away the mother bird along with her brood;
7 sed abire patieris, captos tenens filios : ut bene sit tibi, et longo vivas tempore.	7 you shall let her go, although you may take her brood away. It is thus that you shall have prosperity and a long life.
8 Cum ædificaveris domum novam, facies murum tecti per circuitum : ne effundatur sanguis in domo tua, et sis reus labente alio, et in præceps ruente.	8 "When you build a new house, put a parapet around the roof; otherwise, if someone falls off, you will bring bloodguilt upon your house.
9 Non seres vineam tuam altero semine : ne et sementis quam sevisti, et quæ nascuntur ex vinea, pariter sanctificentur.	9 "You shall not sow your vineyard with two different kinds of seed; if you do, its produce shall become forfeit, both the crop you have sown and the yield of the vineyard.
10 Non arabis in bove simul et asino.	10 You shall not plow with an ox and an ass harnessed together.
11 Non indueris vestimento, quod ex lana linoque contextum est.	11 You shall not wear cloth of two different kinds of thread, wool and linen, woven together.
12 Funiculos in fimbriis facies per quatuor angulos pallii tui, quo operieris.	12 "You shall put twisted cords on the four corners of the cloak that you wrap around you.
13 Si duxerit vir uxorem, et postea odio habuerit eam,	13 "If a man, after marrying a woman and having relations with her, comes to dislike her,
14 quæsieritque occasiones quibus dimittat eam, objiciens ei nomen pessimum, et dixerit : Uxorem hanc accepi, et ingressus ad eam non inveni virginem :	14 and makes monstrous charges against her and defames her by saying, 'I married this woman, but when I first had relations with her I did not find her a virgin,'
15 tollent eam pater et mater ejus, et ferent secum signa virginitatis ejus ad seniores urbis qui in porta sunt :	15 the father and mother of the girl shall take the evidence of her virginity and bring it to the elders at the city gate.
16 et dicet pater : Filiam meam dedi huic uxorem : quam quia odit,	16 There the father of the girl shall say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter to this man in marriage, but he has come to dislike her,
17 imponit ei nomen pessimum, ut dicat : Non inveni filiam tuam virginem : et ecce hæc sunt signa virginitatis filiæ meæ. Expandent vestimentum coram senioribus civitatis :	17 and now brings monstrous charges against her, saying: I did not find your daughter a virgin. But here is the evidence of my daughter's virginity!' And they shall spread out the cloth before the elders of the city.
18 apprehendentque senes urbis illius virum, et verberabunt illum,	18 Then these city elders shall take the man and chastise him,
19 condemnantes insuper centum siclis argenti, quos dabit patri puellæ, quoniam diffamavit nomen pessimum super virginem Israël : habebitque eam uxorem, et non poterit dimittere eam omnibus diebus vitæ suæ.	19 besides fining him one hundred silver shekels, which they shall give to the girl's father, because the man defamed a virgin in Israel. Moreover, she shall remain his wife, and he may not divorce her as long as he lives.
20 Quod si verum est quod objicit, et non est in puella inventa virginitas,	20 "But if this charge is true, and evidence of the girl's virginity is not found,
21 ejicient eam extra fores domus patris sui, et lapidibus obruent viri civitatis illius, et morietur : quoniam fecit nefas in Israël, ut fornicaretur in domo patris sui : et auferes malum de medio tui.	21 they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her father's house and there her townsmen shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father's house. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.
22 Si dormierit vir cum uxore alterius, uterque morietur, id est, adulter et adultera : et auferes malum de Israël.	22 "If a man is discovered having relations with a woman who is married to another, both the man and the woman with whom he has had relations shall die. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.
23 Si puellam virginem desponderit vir, et invenerit eam aliquis in civitate, et concubuerit cum ea,	23 "If within the city a man comes upon a maiden who is betrothed, and has relations with her,
24 educes utrumque ad portam civitatis illius, et lapidibus obruentur : puella, quia non clamavit, cum esset in civitate : vir, quia humiliavit uxorem proximi sui : et auferes malum de medio tui.	24 you shall bring them both out to the gate of the city and there stone them to death: the girl because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbor's wife. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst.
25 Sin autem in agro repererit vir puellam, quæ desponsata est, et apprehendens concubuerit cum ea, ipse morietur solus :	25 "If, however, it is in the open fields that a man comes upon such a betrothed maiden, seizes her and has relations with her, the man alone shall die.
26 puella nihil patietur, nec est rea mortis : quoniam sicut latro consurgit contra fratrem suum, et occidit animam ejus, ita et puella perpessa est.	26 You shall do nothing to the maiden, since she is not guilty of a capital offense. This case is like that of a man who rises up against his neighbor and murders him:
27 Sola erat in agro : clamavit, et nullus affuit qui liberaret eam.	27 it was in the open fields that he came upon her, and though the betrothed maiden may have cried out for help, there was no one to come to her aid.
28 Si invenerit vir puellam virginem, quæ non habet sponsum, et apprehendens concubuerit cum illa, et res ad judicium venerit :	28 "If a man comes upon a maiden that is not betrothed, takes her and has relations with her, and their deed is discovered,
29 dabit qui dormivit cum ea, patri puellæ quinquaginta siclos argenti, et habebit eam uxorem, quia humiliavit illam : non poterit dimittere eam cunctis diebus vitæ suæ.	29 the man who had relations with her shall pay the girl's father fifty silver shekels and take her as his wife, because he has deflowered her. Moreover, he may not divorce her as long as he lives.
30 Non accipiet homo uxorem patris sui, nec revelabit operimentum ejus.
