Deuteronomy 6
1 Now this is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that you might do them in the land where you go over to possess it;
haec sunt praecepta et caerimoniae atque iudicia quae mandavit Dominus Deus vester ut docerem vos et faciatis ea in terra ad quam transgredimini possidendam
2 that you might fear the LORD your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you, you, and your son, and your son's son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.
ut timeas Dominum Deum tuum et custodias omnia mandata et praecepta eius quae ego praecipio tibi et filiis ac nepotibus tuis cunctis diebus vitae tuae ut prolongentur dies tui
3 Hear therefore, Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
audi Israhel et observa ut facias et bene sit tibi et multipliceris amplius sicut pollicitus est Dominus Deus patrum tuorum tibi terram lacte et melle manantem
4 Hear, Israel: the LORD is our God, the LORD is one.
audi Israhel Dominus Deus noster Dominus unus est
5 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo et ex tota anima tua et ex tota fortitudine tua
6 These words, which I command you this day, shall be on your heart;
eruntque verba haec quae ego praecipio tibi hodie in corde tuo
7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
et narrabis ea filiis tuis et meditaberis sedens in domo tua et ambulans in itinere dormiens atque consurgens
8 You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.
et ligabis ea quasi signum in manu tua eruntque et movebuntur inter oculos tuos
9 You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates.
scribesque ea in limine et ostiis domus tuae
10 It shall be, when the LORD your God shall bring you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities, which you did not build,
cumque introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in terram pro qua iuravit patribus tuis Abraham Isaac et Iacob et dederit tibi civitates magnas et optimas quas non aedificasti
11 and houses full of all good things, which you did not fill, and cisterns dug out, which you did not dig, vineyards and olive trees, which you did not plant, and you shall eat and be full;
domos plenas cunctarum opum quas non extruxisti cisternas quas non fodisti vineta et oliveta quae non plantasti
12 then beware lest you forget the LORD, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
et comederis et saturatus fueris
13 You shall fear the LORD your God; and you shall serve him only, and you shall cling to him, and take oaths by his name.
cave diligenter ne obliviscaris Domini qui eduxit te de terra Aegypti de domo servitutis Dominum Deum tuum timebis et ipsi servies ac per nomen illius iurabis
14 You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who are around you;
non ibitis post deos alienos cunctarum gentium quae in circuitu vestro sunt
15 for the LORD your God in the midst of you is a jealous God; lest the anger of the LORD your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.
quoniam Deus aemulator Dominus Deus tuus in medio tui nequando irascatur furor Domini Dei tui contra te et auferat te de superficie terrae
16 Do not test the LORD your God, as you tested him at Massah.
non temptabis Dominum Deum tuum sicut temptasti in loco temptationis
17 You shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded you.
custodi praecepta Domini Dei tui ac testimonia et caerimonias quas praecepit tibi
18 You shall do that which is right and good in the sight of the LORD; that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land which the LORD swore to your fathers,
et fac quod placitum est et bonum in conspectu Domini ut bene sit tibi et ingressus possideas terram optimam de qua iuravit Dominus patribus tuis
19 to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as the LORD has spoken.
ut deleret omnes inimicos tuos coram te sicut locutus est
20 When your son asks you in time to come, saying, "What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the ordinances, which the LORD our God has commanded you mean?"
cum interrogaverit te filius tuus cras dicens quid sibi volunt testimonia haec et caerimoniae atque iudicia quae praecepit Dominus Deus noster nobis
21 then you shall tell your son, "We were Pharaoh's bondservants in Egypt: and the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;
dices ei servi eramus Pharaonis in Aegypto et eduxit nos Dominus de Aegypto in manu forti
22 and the LORD showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;
fecitque signa atque prodigia magna et pessima in Aegypto contra Pharaonem et omnem domum illius in conspectu nostro
23 and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.
et eduxit nos inde ut introductis daret terram super qua iuravit patribus nostris
24 The LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as at this day.
praecepitque nobis Dominus ut faciamus omnia legitima haec et timeamus Dominum Deum nostrum et bene sit nobis cunctis diebus vitae nostrae sicut est hodie
25 It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all this commandment before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us."
eritque nostri misericors si custodierimus et fecerimus omnia praecepta eius coram Domino Deo nostro sicut mandavit nobis
