Liber Deuteronomii

Deuteronomii, chapter 22, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 22 Vulgate

   1 Non videbis bovem fratris tui aut ovem errantem et praeteribis, sed reduces fratri tuo;
   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 Similiter facies de asino et de vestimento et de omni re fratris tui, quae perierit: si inveneris eam, ne subtrahas te.
   4 Si videris asinum fratris tui aut bovem cecidisse in via, non subtrahes te, sed sublevabis cum eo.
   5 Non induetur mulier veste virili, nec vir utetur veste feminea: abominabilis enim apud Dominum Deum tuum est omnis, qui facit haec.
   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 sed abire patieris matrem tenens filios, ut bene sit tibi, et longo vivas tempore.
   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 Non seres vineam tuam altero semine, ne et sementis, quam sevisti, et quae nascuntur ex vinea, pariter sanctificentur.
   10 Non arabis in bove simul et asino.
   11 Non indueris vestimento, quod ex lana linoque contextum est.
   12 Funiculos facies per quattuor angulos pallii tui, quo operieris.
   13 Si duxerit vir uxorem et intraverit ad eam et postea odio habuerit eam
   14 imputaveritque ei obiciens ei nomen pessimum et dixerit: "Uxorem hanc accepi et ingressus ad eam non inveni virginem"
   15 tollent pater et mater eius et ferent secum signa virginitatis eius ad seniores urbis, qui in porta sunt,
   16 et dicet pater: "Filiam meam dedi huic uxorem, quam, quia odit,
   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 Apprehendentque senes urbis illius virum et verberabunt illum
   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 Quod si verum est, quod obicit, et non est in puella inventa virginitas,
   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 Si inventus fuerit vir dormiens cum uxore alterius, uterque morietur, id est adulter et adultera; et auferes malum de Israel.
   23 Si puellam virginem desponsatam viro invenerit aliquis in civitate et concubuerit cum illa,
   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 Sin autem in agro reppererit vir puellam, quae desponsata est, et apprehendens concubuerit cum illa, ipse morietur solus;
   26 puella nihil patietur nec est rea mortis, quoniam sicut vir consurgit contra fratrem suum et occidit eum, ita et puella perpessa est:
   27 sola erat in agro, clamavit puella desponsata, et nullus affuit, qui liberaret eam.
   28 Si invenerit vir puellam virginem, quae non habet sponsum, et apprehendens concubuerit cum ea, et res ad iudicium venerit,
   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.

King James Version

   1 Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them again unto thy brother.
   2 And if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or if thou know him not, then thou shalt bring it unto thine own house, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it to him again.
   3 In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his raiment; and with all lost thing of thy brother's, which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise: thou mayest not hide thyself.
   4 ¶ Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.
   5 ¶ The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
   6 ¶ If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the dam with the young:
   7 But thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, and take the young to thee; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.
   8 ¶ When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thou bring not blood upon thine house, if any man fall from thence.
   9 ¶ Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled.
   10 ¶ Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
   11 ¶ Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together.
   12 ¶ Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself.
   13 ¶ If any man take a wife, and go in unto her, and hate her,
   14 And give occasions of speech against her, and bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid:
   15 Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders of the city in the gate:
   16 And the damsel's father shall say unto the elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
   17 And, lo, he hath given occasions of speech against her, saying, I found not thy daughter a maid; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.
   18 And the elders of that city shall take that man and chastise him;
   19 And they shall amerce him in an hundred shekels of silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought up an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
   20 But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
   21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.
   22 ¶ If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away evil from Israel.
   23 ¶ If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto an husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her;
   24 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.
   25 ¶ But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:
   26 But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so is this matter:
   27 For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.
   28 ¶ If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
   29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.
   30 ¶ A man shall not take his father's wife, nor discover his father's skirt.
