Deuteronômio 24

1 When a man takes a wife and marries her, then it shall be, if she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a certificate of divorce, put it in her hand, and send her out of his house. 2 When she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man’s wife. 3 If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a certificate of divorce, puts it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife; 4 her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she is defiled; for that would be an abomination to Yahweh. You shall not cause the land to sin, which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance. 5 When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be assigned any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.

6 No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone as a pledge, for he takes a life in pledge.

7 If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the children of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave, or sells him, then that thief shall die. So you shall remove the evil from among you.

8 Be careful in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently and do according to all that the Levitical priests teach you. As I commanded them, so you shall observe to do. 9 Remember what Yahweh your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.

10 When you lend your neighbor any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge. 11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge outside to you. 12 If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep with his pledge. 13 You shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment and bless you. It shall be righteousness to you before Yahweh your God.

14 You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who are in your land within your gates. 15 In his day you shall give him his wages, neither shall the sun go down on it, for he is poor and sets his heart on it, lest he cry against you to Yahweh, and it be sin to you.

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 You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, nor take a widow’s clothing in pledge; 18 but you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing.

19 When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

21 When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean it after yourselves. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow. 22 You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Therefore I command you to do this thing.

Te Wehenga me te Mārena anō

1 Ki te tango te tangata i te wahine, ā, ka mārena i a ia, nā, ki te kore ia e manakohia e ia, nō te mea kua kitea e ia tētahi hē ōna, me tuhituhi e ia he pukapuka whakarere ki a ia, ka hoatu ki tōna ringa, ā, ka tono atu i a ia ki waho o tōna whare. 2 Ā, ka puta ia i tōna whare, ka āhei ia te haere ā, ka riro hei wahine mā tētahi atu. 3 Ā, ki te kino tō muri tahu ki a ia, ā, ka tuhituhia e ia he pukapuka whakarere ki a ia, ka hoatu hoki ki tōna ringa, ka tono atu anō hoki i a ia i roto i tōna whare (ki te mate rānei tō muri tahu i tango nei i a ia hei wahine māna); 4 e kore e āhei i te tahu tuatahi, nāna nei ia i tono atu, te tango anō i a ia hei wahine māna i muri i tōna whakapokenga; he mea whakarihariha hoki tēnā ki te aroaro o Ihowā. Kaua anō hoki e mea kia whai hara te whenua i hoatu nei e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, ki a koe hei kāinga tupu.

He Ture Momo Kē

5 Ki te tango te tangata i te wahine hou, kaua ia e haere ki te whawhai, kaua anō hoki tētahi mahi e whakaritea māna. Me noho noa ia i tōna whare kia kotahi tau, whakahari ai i te ngākau o tāna wahine i tango ai.

6 Kaua e tangohia e te tangata tō raro kōhatu, tō runga kōhatu rānei o te mira, hei taunaha. He tango hoki tēnā i te oranga o te tangata hei taunaha.

7 Ki te mau tētahi tangata e tāhae ana i tētahi o ōna tēina o ngā tama a Īharaira, hei pononga māna, hei hoko rānei māna, me mate taua tāhae. Ā, ka whakakorea atu e koe te kino i roto i a koe.

8 Kia mahara, i ngā pānga mai o te repera, kia whakaritea mārietia, kia mahia ngā mea katoa e ako ai ngā tohunga, ngā Rīwaiti, ki a koutou; kia mahara kia mahia tāku i whakahau ai ki a rātou. 9 Maharatia tā Ihowā, tā tōu Atua, i mea ai ki a Miriama i te ara, i tō koutou haerenga mai i Īhipa.

10 Ki te whakatārewa atu koe i tētahi mea ki tōu hoa, kaua e haere ki roto ki tōna whare ki te tiki atu i tāna taunaha. 11 Me tū atu koe i waho, ā, mā te tangata i a ia nei tāu mea, e kawe mai te taunaha ki a koe ki waho. 12 Otiia, mehemea he rawakore taua tangata, kei moe koe me te takoto tahi mai tāna taunaha; 13 me tino whakahoki atu e koe te taunaha ki a ia ina toene te rā, kia moe ai ia i roto i tōna kākahu, ā, ka manaaki i a koe. Ā, ka waiho hei tika mōu ki te aroaro o Ihowā, o tōu Atua.

14 Kei tūkinotia e koe te kaimahi, he rawakore, he mate, ahakoa nō ōu tuākana, nō ōu tāngata iwi kē rānei i tōu whenua, i roto i ōu kūwaha. 15 Me hoatu e koe tōna utu i tōna rā, kei tō te rā me te takoto anō taua mea; he rawakore hoki ia, ā, e ōkaka ana tōna ngākau ki taua mea. Kei karanga ia ki a Ihowā mō tōu kino, ā, ka waiho hei hara mōu.

16 E kore e whakamatea ngā mātua mō te hē o ngā tamariki, e kore anō hoki e whakamatea ngā tamariki mō te hē o ngā mātua; mō tōna ake hara anō e whakamatea ai tēnā tangata, tēnā.

17 Kei whakapeaua kētia e koe te whakawā mō te manene, mō te pani rānei; kaua anō hoki e tangohia te kākahu o te pouaru hei taunaha. 18 Engari kia mahara he pononga koe i Īhipa, ā, nā Ihowā, nā tōu Atua, koe i whakaora mai i reira; koia ahau i whakahau ai i a koe ki te mea i tēnei mea.

19 Ka kotia e koe āu hua i tāu māra, ā, ka wareware tētahi paihere i te māra, kei hoki koe ki te tiki; waiho mā te manene, mā te pani, mā te pouaru; kia manaakitia ai koe e Ihowā, e tōu Atua, i ngā meatanga katoa a ōu ringa. 20 E tāia e koe tāu ōriwa, kaua e hoki anō ki ngā manga ketu ai; waiho mā te manene, mā te pani, mā te pouaru. 21 E whakia e koe ngā karepe o tāu māra wāina, kaua e hamua i muri i a koe; waiho mā te manene, mā te pani, mā te pouaru. 22 Me mahara anō hoki koe he pononga koe i te whenua o Īhipa; koia ahau i whakahau ai i a koe kia mea i tēnei mea.
