Deuteronomy 23 Free Bible Version
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 No man whose genitals have been damaged or cut off is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
1 NO entrará en la congregación de Jehová el que fuere quebrado, ni el castrado.
2 No one of mixed race is allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, and none of his descendants may do so either, up to the tenth generation.
2 No entrará bastardo en la congregación de Jehová: ni aun en la décima generación entrará en la congregación de Jehová.
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary, up to the tenth generation.
3 No entrará Ammonita ni Moabita en la congregación de Jehová; ni aun en la décima generación entrará en la congregación de Jehová para siempre:
4 For they did not come to meet you with food and water on your journey from Egypt, and they hired Balaam, son of Beor, from Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse you.
4 Por cuanto no os salieron á recibir con pan y agua al camino, cuando salisteis de Egipto; y porque alquiló contra ti á Balaam hijo de Beor de Pethor de Mesopotamia de Siria, para que te maldijese.
5 But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam. The Lord your God turned what was meant to be a curse into a blessing for you because the Lord your God loves you.
5 Mas no quiso Jehová tu Dios oir á Balaam; y Jehová tu Dios te volvió la maldición en bendición, porque Jehová tu Dios te amaba.
6 Don't arrange a peace treaty with them or help them out as long as you live.
6 No procurarás la paz de ellos ni su bien en todos los días para siempre.
7 Don't look down on an Edomite, for they are your relatives. Don't look down on an Egyptian either, because you lived as foreigners in their country.
7 No abominarás al Idumeo, que tu hermano es: no abominarás al Egipcio, que extranjero fuiste en su tierra.
8 The third generation of their children are allowed to enter the Lord's sanctuary.
8 Los hijos que nacieren de ellos, á la tercera generación entrarán en la congregación de Jehová.
9 When you are in an army camp during a war with your enemies, make sure you avoid anything wrong.
9 Cuando salieres á campaña contra tus enemigos, guárdate de toda cosa mala.
10 Any man there who becomes unclean because of a release of semen must leave the camp and remain outside.
10 Cuando hubiere en ti alguno que no fuere limpio por accidente de noche, saldráse del campo, y no entrará en él.
11 Towards the end of the day he must wash himself with water, and at sunset he may return to the camp.
11 Y será que al declinar de la tarde se lavará con agua, y cuando fuere puesto el sol, entrará en el campo.
12 Choose a place outside the camp to be used as a toilet.
12 Y tendrás un lugar fuera del real, y saldrás allá fuera;
13 You need to have a spade as part of your equipment so that you can dig a hole, and then when you're finished you can cover up your excrement.
13 Tendrás también una estaca entre tus armas; y será que, cuando estuvieres [allí] fuera, cavarás con ella, y luego al volverte cubrirás tu excremento:
14 The Lord your God is present with you in your camp to keep you safe and to defeat your enemies. Your camp must be kept holy, because if he sees anything unclean among you, he will leave you.
14 Porque Jehová tu Dios anda por medio de tu campo, para librarte y entregar tus enemigos delante de ti; por tanto será tu real santo: porque él no vea en ti cosa inmunda, y se vuelva de en pos de ti.
15 Don't send a slave back to their master if they have come to you for protection.
15 No entregarás á su señor el siervo que se huyere á ti de su amo:
16 Let the slave live in your country wherever they want, in whatever town they want. Don't mistreat them.
16 More contigo, en medio de ti, en el lugar que escogiere en alguna de tus ciudades, donde bien le estuviere: no le harás fuerza.
17 No Israelite women or men are to be cult prostitutes.
17 No habrá ramera de las hijas de Israel, ni habrá sodomítico de los hijos de Israel.
18 Don't bring into the house of the Lord your God any money from a prostitute, whether a woman or a man, using it to fulfill a promise to the Lord, for both are offensive to the Lord your God.
18 No traerás precio de ramera, ni precio de perro á la casa de Jehová tu Dios por ningún voto; porque abominación es á Jehová tu Dios así lo uno como lo otro.
19 Don't charge a fellow Israelite interest on money, food, or any other kind of loan.
19 No tomarás de tu hermano logro de dinero, ni logro de comida, ni logro de cosa alguna de que se suele tomar.
20 You may charge a foreigner interest, but not an Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless you in everything you do in the country that you are going in to occupy.
20 Del extraño tomarás logro, mas de tu hermano no lo tomarás, porque te bendiga Jehová tu Dios en toda obra de tus manos sobre la tierra á la cual entras para poseerla.
21 If you make a promise to the Lord your God, don't be slow in keeping it, because he will definitely demand that you fulfill it and you will be guilty of sin if you don't.
21 Cuando prometieres voto á Jehová tu Dios, no tardarás en pagarlo; porque ciertamente lo demandará Jehová tu Dios de ti, y habría en ti pecado.
22 If you don't make such promises then you won't be guilty of sin.
22 Mas cuando te abstuvieres de prometer, no habrá en ti pecado.
23 But make sure to carry out what you've said to the Lord your God, because it was you who freely chose to make such a promise.
23 Guardarás lo que tus labios pronunciaren; y harás, como prometiste á Jehová tu Dios, lo que de tu voluntad hablaste por tu boca.
24 When you walk through your neighbor's vineyard, you can eat as many grapes as you want, but you must not collect any to take with you.
24 Cuando entrares en la viña de tu prójimo, comerás uvas hasta saciar tu deseo: mas no pondrás en tu vaso.
25 When you walk through your neighbor's grainfield, you may pick the ears of grain with your hand, but you must not use a sickle to harvest it.
25 Cuando entrares en la mies de tu prójimo, podrás cortar espigas con tu mano; mas no aplicarás hoz á la mies de tu prójimo.
