Deuteronomy 10
1 After that the Lord told me, “Cut out two stone tablets just like the first ones, make an Ark out of wood, and come up to me on the mountain.
In tempore illo dixit Dominus ad me: Dola tibi duas tabulas lapideas, sicut priores fuerunt, et ascende ad me in montem: faciesque arcam ligneam,
2 I will write same the words on the tablets that were on the first ones, which you broke. Then put them in the Ark.”
et scribam in tabulis verba quæ fuerunt in his qui ante confregisti: ponesque eas in arca.
3 I made an Ark out of acacia wood, cut out two stone tablets like the first ones, and went up the mountain carrying them.
Feci igitur arcam de lignis setim. Cumque dolassem duas tabulas lapideas instar priorum, ascendi in montem, habens eas in manibus.
4 The Lord wrote what he had before on the tablets, the Ten Commandments that he'd told you when he spoke from the fire on the mountain when we were all assembled there. The Lord gave them to me,
Scripsitque in tabulis, juxta id quod prius scripserat, verba decem, quæ locutus est Dominus ad vos in monte de medio ignis, quando populus congregatus est: et dedit eas mihi.
5 and I went back down the mountain and put them in the Ark I'd made following the Lord's instructions. They have been there ever since.
Reversusque de monte, descendi, et posui tabulas in arcam, quam feceram, quæ hucusque ibi sunt, sicut mihi præcepit Dominus.
6 The Israelites went from the wells of the people of Jaakan to Moserah. Aaron died there and was buried, and Eleazar his son took over as priest.
Filii autem Israël moverunt castra ex Beroth filiorum Jacan in Mosera, ubi Aaron mortuus ac sepultus est, pro quo sacerdotio functus est Eleazar filius ejus.
7 From there they moved on to Gudgodah, and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land that had many streams.
Inde venerunt in Gadgad: de quo loco profecti, castrametati sunt in Jetebatha, in terra aquarum atque torrentium.
8 At this time the Lord put the tribe of Levi in charge of carrying the Ark of the Lord's Agreement, as well as serving the Lord by standing in his presence, and of pronouncing blessings in his name, as they continue to do to this day.
Eo tempore separavit tribum Levi, ut portaret arcam fœderis Domini, et staret coram eo in ministerio, ac benediceret in nomine illius usque in præsentem diem.
9 That's why the tribe of Levi has no land allowance or share among the other tribes. The Lord provides what they need, just as the Lord your God promised.
Quam ob rem non habuit Levi partem, neque possessionem cum fratribus suis: quia ipse Dominus possessio ejus est, sicut promisit ei Dominus Deus tuus.
10 I remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights as before, and during that time the Lord listened to my prayers once more and agreed not to destroy you.
Ego autem steti in monte, sicut prius, quadraginta diebus ac noctibus: exaudivitque me Dominus etiam hac vice, et te perdere noluit.
11 Then the Lord told me, “Get ready and continue your journey leading the people so they may enter and take over the land that I promised their forefathers to give them.”
Dixitque mihi: Vade, et præcede populum, ut ingrediatur, et possideat terram, quam juravi patribus eorum ut traderem eis.
12 People of Israel, what does the Lord your God want from you? He wants you to respect the Lord your God by following all his ways. He wants you to love him. He wants you to worship the Lord your God with all your mind and with all your being,
Et nunc Israël, quid Dominus Deus tuus petit a te, nisi ut timeas Dominum Deum tuum, et ambules in viis ejus, et diligas eum, ac servias Domino Deo tuo in toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua:
13 He wants you to keep the commandments and regulations of the Lord that I am giving you today for your own good.
custodiasque mandata Domini, et cæremonias ejus, quas ego hodie præcipio tibi, ut bene sit tibi?
14 Look! Everything belongs to the Lord your God: the heavens, the highest heavens, and the earth and all that is there.
En Domini Dei tui cælum est, et cælum cæli, terra, et omnia quæ in ea sunt:
15 But Lord was attracted to your forefathers and he loved them. He has also chosen you, their descendants, above any other people, even up till today.
et tamen patribus tuis conglutinatus est Dominus, et amavit eos, elegitque semen eorum post eos, id est, vos, de cunctis gentibus, sicut hodie comprobatur.
16 Dedicate yourselves to God. Don't be stubborn and hard-hearted anymore.
Circumcidite igitur præputium cordis vestri, et cervicem vestram ne induretis amplius:
17 For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords. He is the great, powerful, and awesome God. He shows no favoritism and accepts no bribes.
quia Dominus Deus vester ipse est Deus deorum, et Dominus dominantium, Deus magnus, et potens, et terribilis, qui personam non accipit, nec munera.
18 He makes sure that orphans and widows receive justice, and he loves the foreigners, providing them with food and clothing.
Facit judicium pupillo et viduæ; amat peregrinum, et dat ei victum atque vestitum.
19 You too must love the foreigner because you yourselves were once foreigners in Egypt.
Et vos ergo amate peregrinos, quia et ipsi fuistis advenæ in terra Ægypti.
20 You must respect the Lord your God and worship him. Hold onto him and make your promises in his name.
Dominum Deum tuum timebis, et ei soli servies: ipsi adhærebis, jurabisque in nomine illius.
21 He is the one you should praise and he is your God, who has carried out for you these incredible and awesome miracles that you've seen with your own eyes.
Ipse est laus tua, et Deus tuus, qui fecit tibi hæc magnalia et terribilia, quæ viderunt oculi tui.
22 When your forefathers went to Egypt there were only seventy of them in total, but now God has increased your numbers so much that there are as many of you as there are stars in the sky.
In septuaginta animabus descenderunt patres tui in Ægyptum, et ecce nunc multiplicavit te Dominus Deus tuus sicut astra cæli.
