Deuteronomy 21
1 “When there will have been found in the land, which the Lord your God will give to you, the corpse of a man who has been killed, and it is not known who is guilty of the murder,
Kad atrod kādu nokautu tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos iemantot, un tas guļ uz lauka, un neviens nezin, kas to nokāvis,
2 your judges and those greater by birth shall go out and measure, from the place of the corpse, the distance to each of the surrounding cities.
Tad taviem vecajiem un taviem soģiem būs iziet ārā un mērot līdz tām pilsētām, kas ir ap to nokauto.
3 And in whichever one they perceive to be closer than the others, the elders shall take a calf from the herd, one which has not pulled with a yoke, nor tilled with a plow.
Kura pilsēta nu tam nokautam tā tuvākā, tās pilsētas vecaji lai ņem no liellopiem teli, ar ko vēl nav strādāts, kas nekādu jūgu vēl nav vilkusi.
4 And they shall lead it into a rough and stony valley, one which has never been tilled or sown. And in that place, they shall cut the neck of the calf.
Un tās pilsētas vecajiem būs novest to teli tekošas upes ielejā, kur netop ne strādāts, ne sēts, un tiem tur upes ielejā tai telei būs lauzt kaklu.
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall approach, those whom the Lord your God has chosen to minister to him, and to bless in his name, and to decide every controversy by their word, and to judge which things are clean and which are unclean.
Tad priesteriem, Levja bērniem, būs pieiet, jo Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tos ir izredzējis, Viņam kalpot un svētīt Tā Kunga Vārdā, un lai pēc viņu vārdiem ikviena ķilda un ikviena vaina top izlīdzināta.
6 And those greater by birth of that city, nearest to the one who was slain, shall go and shall wash their hands over the calf that was killed in the valley.
Un visiem šīs pilsētas vecajiem, kas tam nokautam ir tie tuvākie, būs mazgāt savas rokas pār to teli, kam kakls lauzts upes ielejā.
7 And they shall say: ‘Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it.
Un tiem būs dot liecību un sacīt: mūsu rokas nav izlējušas šās asinis un mūsu acis nav redzējušas.
8 Be merciful to your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, O Lord, and do not charge them with innocent blood in the midst of your people Israel.’ And so the guilt of the blood will be taken away from them.
Piedod Saviem Israēla ļaudīm, ko Tu, Kungs, esi atpestījis, un nepielīdzini nenoziedzīgas asinis Saviem Israēla ļaudīm - tad tie būs salīdzināti par šīm asinīm.
9 Then you will be free from the blood that was shed against the innocent, when you will have done as the Lord has instructed you.
Tā Tu izdeldēsi tās nenoziedzīgās asinis no Sava vidus, darīdams, kas ir tiesa Tā Kunga acīs. -
10 If you have gone out to fight against your enemies, and the Lord your God has delivered them into your hand, and if, as you are leading away the captives,
Kad tu iesi karā pret saviem ienaidniekiem, un Tas Kungs viņus nodos tavā rokā, ka tu gūstītus no viņiem pārvedi cietumā,
11 you see among the number of the captives a beautiful woman, and you love her, and you are willing to have her as a wife:
Un tu redzēsi starp tiem gūstītiem skaistu sievu, un tu viņas iegribies un to ņem sev par sievu,
12 then you shall lead her into your house. And she shall shave off her hair, and cut her nails short,
Tad tev to būs vest savā namā un lai viņa savu galvu apcērp un savus nagus apgraiza,
13 and remove the garment in which she was captured. And she shall sit in your house and weep for her father and mother, for one month. And after that, you shall enter to her and sleep with her, and she shall be your wife.
Un noliek savas cietuma drēbes un sēž tavā namā un apraud savu tēvu un savu māti vienu mēnesi un pēc tam ej pie viņas un esi viņai par vīru, un viņa lai ir tev par sievu.
14 But if afterwards she does not sit well in your mind, you shall set her free. You cannot sell her for money, nor can you oppress her by force. For you have humiliated her.
Un ja viņa tev nepatīk, tad atlaid viņu, kur viņa grib, bet par naudu tev to nebūs pārdot, nedz turēt verdzībā, tāpēc ka tu to esi pazemojis.
15 If a man has two wives, one beloved and the other hated, and they have produced children by him, and if the son of the hated wife is the firstborn,
Kad kādam vīram ir divas sievas, viena mīlēta un otra neieredzēta, un tā mīlētā kā tā neieredzētā dzemdē viņam dēlus, un tas pirmdzimtais ir no tās neieredzētās, -
16 and if he wishes to divide his substance among his sons: he cannot make the son of the beloved wife the firstborn, and so prefer him before the son of the hated wife.
Un kad viņš saviem dēliem savu mantu dalīs, tad tās mīlētās dēlu viņš nevar uzņemt par pirmdzimto, tās neieredzētās dēla vietā, kas tas pirmdzimtais.
17 Instead, he shall acknowledge the son of the hated wife as the firstborn, and he shall give to him a double portion of all that he has. For he is the first among his children, and the rights of the firstborn are owed to him.
Bet viņam būs atzīt tās neieredzētās dēlu par pirmdzimto, un tam dot divkārtīgu tiesu no visa, kas tam ir; jo tas ir viņa spēka pirmdzimtais, - tam pieder pirmdzimtības tiesa. -
18 If a man produces a disobedient and reckless son, who will not listen to the orders of his father or mother, and, having been corrected, shows contempt for obedience:
Kad kādam vīram ir stūrgalvīgs un neklausīgs dēls, kas neklausa sava tēva un savas mātes balsij, un tie viņu ir pārmācījuši, un viņš tomēr tiem neklausa,
19 they shall take him and lead him to the elders of the city and to the gate of judgment.
Tad viņa tēvam un mātei to būs sagrābt un izvest pie savas pilsētas vecajiem un pie savas pilsētas vārtiem,
20 And they shall say to them: ‘This our son is reckless and disobedient. He shows contempt when listening to our admonitions. He occupies himself with carousing, and self-indulgence, and feasting.’
Un tiem būs sacīt uz savas pilsētas vecajiem: šis mūsu dēls ir stūrgalvīgs un neklausīgs, viņš neklausa mūsu balsij, viņš ir rijējs un dzērājs.
21 Then the people of the city shall stone him to death. And he shall die, so that you may take away the evil from your midst. And so may all of Israel, upon hearing it, be very afraid.
Tad visiem viņa pilsētas ļaudīm to būs akmeņiem nomētāt, ka mirst. Tā tev būs izdeldēt to ļaunumu no tava vidus, ka viss Israēls to dzird un bīstas. -
22 When a man will have sinned in a matter which is punished by death, and, having been judged unto death, he has been hanged on a gallows:
Un ja kas darījis kādu grēku, ar ko tas nāvi pelnījis, un top nonāvēts un tu to pakar pie koka,
23 his corpse shall not remain on the tree. Instead, he shall be buried on the same day. For he who hangs from a tree has been cursed by God, and you shall not defile your land, which the Lord your God will give to you as a possession.”
Tad lai viņa miesas nepaliek par nakti pie koka, bet aproc tās tai pašā dienā; jo tas pakārtais ir Dieva lāsts; tā tev šo zemi nebūs apgānīt, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod par īpašumu.
