< Deuteronomy 5 >

1 And Moses calleth unto all Israel, and saith unto them, 'Hear, Israel, the statutes and the judgments which I am speaking in your ears to-day, and ye have learned them, and have observed to do them.
Vocavitque Moyses omnem Israelem, et dixit ad eum: Audi Israel ceremonias atque iudicia, quæ ego loquor in auribus vestris hodie: discite ea, et opere complete.
2 Jehovah our God made with us a covenant in Horeb;
Dominus Deus noster pepigit nobiscum fœdus in Horeb.
3 not with our fathers hath Jehovah made this covenant, but with us; we — these — here to-day — all of us alive.
Non cum patribus nostris iniit pactum, sed nobiscum qui in præsentiarum sumus, et vivimus.
4 Face to face hath Jehovah spoken with you, in the mount, out of the midst of the fire;
Facie ad faciem locutus est nobis in monte de medio ignis.
5 I am standing between Jehovah and you, at that time, to declare to you the word of Jehovah, for ye have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and ye have not gone up into the mount; saying:
Ego sequester et medius fui inter Dominum et vos in tempore illo, ut annunciarem vobis verba eius. timuistis enim ignem, et non ascendistis in montem, et ait:
6 'I Jehovah [am] thy God, who hath brought thee out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.
Ego Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de Terra Ægypti de domo servitutis.
7 'Thou hast no other gods in My presence.
Non habebis deos alienos in conspectu meo.
8 'Thou dost not make to thee a graven image, any similitude which [is] in the heavens above, and which [is] in the earth beneath, and which [is] in the waters under the earth;
Non facies tibi sculptile, nec similitudinem omnium, quæ in cælo sunt desuper, et quæ in terra deorsum, et quæ versantur in aquis sub terra.
9 thou dost not bow thyself to them nor serve them, for I Jehovah thy God [am] a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on a third [generation], and on a fourth, to those hating Me;
Non adorabis ea, et non coles. Ego enim sum Dominus Deus tuus: Deus æmulator, reddens iniquitatem patrum super filios in tertiam et quartam generationem his qui oderunt me,
10 and doing kindness to thousands, to those loving Me, and to those keeping My commands.
et faciens misericordiam in multa millia diligentibus me, et custodientibus præcepta mea.
11 'Thou dost not take up the Name of Jehovah thy God for a vain thing, for Jehovah doth not acquit him who taketh up His Name for a vain thing.
Non usurpabis nomen Domini Dei tui frustra: quia non erit impunitus qui super re vana nomen eius assumpserit.
12 'Observe the day of the sabbath — to sanctify it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee;
Observa diem Sabbati, ut sanctifices eum, sicut præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus.
13 six days thou dost labour, and hast done all thy work,
Sex diebus operaberis, et facies omnia opera tua.
14 and the seventh day [is] a sabbath to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not do any work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and thine ox, and thine ass, and all thy cattle, and thy sojourner who [is] within thy gates; so that thy man-servant, and thy handmaid doth rest like thyself;
Septimus dies Sabbati est, id est, requies Domini Dei tui. Non facies in eo quidquam operis tu, et filius tuus, et filia, servus et ancilla, et bos, et asinus, et omne iumentum tuum, et peregrinus qui est intra portas tuas: ut requiescat servus tuus, et ancilla tua, sicut et tu.
15 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God is bringing thee out thence by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm; therefore hath Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the day of the sabbath.
Memento quod et ipse servieris in Ægypto, et eduxerit te inde Dominus Deus tuus in manu forti, et brachio extento. Idcirco præcepit tibi ut observares diem Sabbati.
16 'Honour thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee, so that thy days are prolonged, and so that it is well with thee, on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.
Honora patrem tuum et matrem, sicut præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus, ut longo vivas tempore, et bene sit tibi in Terra, quam Dominus Deus tuus daturus est tibi.
17 'Thou dost not murder.
Non occides.
18 'Thou dost not commit adultery.
Neque mœchaberis.
19 'Thou dost not steal.
Furtumque non facies.
20 'Thou dost not answer against thy neighbour — a false testimony.
Nec loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
21 'Thou dost not desire thy neighbour's wife; nor dost thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, and his man-servant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his ass, and anything which [is] thy neighbour's.
Non concupisces uxorem proximi tui: non domum, non agrum, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum, et universa quæ illius sunt.
22 'These words hath Jehovah spoken unto all your assembly, in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness — a great voice; and He hath not added, and He writeth them on two tables of stone, and giveth them unto me.
Hæc verba locutus est Dominus ad omnem multitudinem vestram in monte de medio ignis et nubis, et caliginis, voce magna, nihil addens amplius: et scripsit ea in duabus tabulis lapideis, quas tradidit mihi.
23 'And it cometh to pass as ye hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness, and of the mountain burning with fire, that ye come near unto me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders,
Vos autem postquam audistis vocem de medio tenebrarum, et montem ardere vidistis, accessistis ad me omnes principes tribuum et maiores natu, atque dixistis:
24 and say, Lo, Jehovah our God hath shewed us His honour, and His greatness; and His voice we have heard out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God doth speak with man — and he hath lived.
Ecce ostendit nobis Dominus Deus noster maiestatem et magnitudinem suam. vocem eius audivimus de medio ignis, et probavimus hodie quod loquente Deo cum homine, vixerit homo.
25 'And, now, why do we die? for consume us doth this great fire — if we add to hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more — then we have died.
Cur ergo moriemur, et devorabit nos ignis hic maximus? Si enim audierimus ultra vocem Domini Dei nostri, moriemur.
26 For who of all flesh [is] he who hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us — and doth live?
Quid est omnis caro, ut audiat vocem Dei viventis, qui de medio ignis loquitur sicut nos audivimus, et possit vivere?
27 Draw near thou, and hear all that which Jehovah our God saith, and thou, thou dost speak unto us all that which Jehovah our God speaketh unto thee, and we have hearkened, and done it.
Tu magis accede: et audi cuncta quæ dixerit Dominus Deus noster tibi: loquerisque ad nos, et nos audientes faciemus ea.
28 'And Jehovah heareth the voice of your words, in your speaking unto me, and Jehovah saith unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken unto thee; they have done well [in] all that they have spoken.
Quod cum audisset Dominus, ait ad me: Audivi vocem verborum populi huius quæ locuti sunt tibi: bene omnia sunt locuti.
29 O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me, and to keep My commands all the days, that it may be well with them, and with their sons — to the age!
Quis det talem eos habere mentem, ut timeant me, et custodiant universa mandata mea in omni tempore, ut bene sit eis et filiis eorum in sempiternum?
30 'Go, say to them, Turn back for yourselves, to your tents;
Vade et dic eis: Revertimini in tentoria vestra.
31 and thou here stand thou with Me, and let Me speak unto thee all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which thou dost teach them, and they have done in the land which I am giving to them to possess it.
Tu vero hic sta mecum, et loquar tibi omnia mandata mea, et ceremonias atque iudicia: quæ docebis eos, ut faciant ea in Terra, quam dabo illis in possessionem.
32 'And ye have observed to do as Jehovah your God hath commanded you, ye turn not aside — right or left;
Custodite igitur et facite quæ præcepit Dominus Deus vobis: non declinabitis neque ad dexteram, neque ad sinistram:
33 in all the way which Jehovah your God hath commanded you ye walk, so that ye live, and [it is] well with you, and ye have prolonged days in the land which ye possess.
sed per viam, quam præcepit Dominus Deus vester, ambulabitis, ut vivatis, et bene sit vobis, et protelentur dies in terra possessionis vestræ.
