< Deuteronomii 5 >

1 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.
And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that all of you may learn them, and keep, and do them.
2 Dominus Deus noster pepigit nobiscum fœdus in Horeb.
The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Non cum patribus nostris iniit pactum, sed nobiscum qui in præsentiarum sumus, et vivimus.
The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
4 Facie ad faciem locutus est nobis in monte de medio ignis.
The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
5 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:
(I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the word of the LORD: for all of you were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount; ) saying,
6 Ego Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de Terra Ægypti de domo servitutis.
I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7 Non habebis deos alienos in conspectu meo.
You shall have no other gods before me.
8 Non facies tibi sculptile, nec similitudinem omnium, quæ in cælo sunt desuper, et quæ in terra deorsum, et quæ versantur in aquis sub terra.
You shall not make you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
9 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,
You shall not bow down yourself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
10 et faciens misericordiam in multa millia diligentibus me, et custodientibus præcepta mea.
And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Non usurpabis nomen Domini Dei tui frustra: quia non erit impunitus qui super re vana nomen eius assumpserit.
You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
12 Observa diem Sabbati, ut sanctifices eum, sicut præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus.
Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD your God has commanded you.
13 Sex diebus operaberis, et facies omnia opera tua.
Six days you shall labour, and do all your work:
14 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.
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates; that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you.
15 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.
And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD your God brought you out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.
16 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.
Honour your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you; that your days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with you, in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
17 Non occides.
You shall not kill.
18 Neque mœchaberis.
Neither shall you commit adultery.
19 Furtumque non facies.
Neither shall you steal.
20 Nec loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
Neither shall you bear false witness against your neighbour.
21 Non concupisces uxorem proximi tui: non domum, non agrum, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum, et universa quæ illius sunt.
Neither shall you desire your neighbour's wife, neither shall you covet your neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is your neighbour's.
22 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.
These words the LORD spoke unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
23 Vos autem postquam audistis vocem de medio tenebrarum, et montem ardere vidistis, accessistis ad me omnes principes tribuum et maiores natu, atque dixistis:
And it came to pass, when all of you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire, ) that all of you came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24 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.
And all of you said, Behold, the LORD our God has showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God does talk with man, and he lives.
25 Cur ergo moriemur, et devorabit nos ignis hic maximus? Si enim audierimus ultra vocem Domini Dei nostri, moriemur.
Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.
26 Quid est omnis caro, ut audiat vocem Dei viventis, qui de medio ignis loquitur sicut nos audivimus, et possit vivere?
For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
27 Tu magis accede: et audi cuncta quæ dixerit Dominus Deus noster tibi: loquerisque ad nos, et nos audientes faciemus ea.
Go you near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say: and speak you unto us all that the LORD our God shall speak unto you; and we will hear it, and do it.
28 Quod cum audisset Dominus, ait ad me: Audivi vocem verborum populi huius quæ locuti sunt tibi: bene omnia sunt locuti.
And the LORD heard the voice of your words, when all of you spoke unto me; and the LORD said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto you: they have well said all that they have spoken.
29 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?
O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
30 Vade et dic eis: Revertimini in tentoria vestra.
Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
31 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.
But as for you, stand you here by me, and I will speak unto you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32 Custodite igitur et facite quæ præcepit Dominus Deus vobis: non declinabitis neque ad dexteram, neque ad sinistram:
All of you shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you: all of you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
33 sed per viam, quam præcepit Dominus Deus vester, ambulabitis, ut vivatis, et bene sit vobis, et protelentur dies in terra possessionis vestræ.
All of you shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God has commanded you, that all of you may live, and that it may be well with you, and that all of you may prolong your days in the land which all of you shall possess.
