Deuteronomio 26

1 Y será que cuando hubieres entrado en la tierra que Jehová tu Dios te da por heredad, y la poseyeres, y habitares en ella;

It shall be, when you have come in to the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, possess it, and dwell in it,

2 Entonces tomarás de las primicias de todos los frutos de la tierra, que trajeres de tu tierra, que Jehová tu Dios te da, y pondrás en un canastillo, e irás al lugar que Jehová tu Dios escogiere, para hacer habitar allí su nombre:

that you shall take some of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that the LORD your God gives you. You shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.

3 Y vendrás al sacerdote que fuere en aquellos días, y decirle has: Confieso hoy a Jehová tu Dios, que yo he entrado en la tierra que juró Jehová a nuestros padres que nos había de dar.

You shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and tell him, “I profess today to the LORD your God, that I have come to the land which the LORD swore to our fathers to give us.”

4 Y el sacerdote tomará el canastillo de tu mano, y ponerlo ha delante del altar de Jehová tu Dios.

The priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the LORD your God’s altar.

5 Y responderás, y dirás delante de Jehová tu Dios: El Siro mi padre pereciendo de hambre descendió a Egipto, y peregrinó allá con pocos hombres, y allí creció en gente grande, fuerte, y mucha.

You shall answer and say before the LORD your God, “My father was a Syrian ready to perish. He went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number. There he became a great, mighty, and populous nation.

6 Y los Egipcios nos maltrataron, y nos afligieron, y pusieron sobre nosotros dura servidumbre.

The Egyptians mistreated us, afflicted us, and imposed hard labour on us.

7 Y clamamos a Jehová Dios de nuestros padres, y oyó Jehová nuestra voz, y vio nuestra aflicción, y nuestro trabajo, y nuestra opresión:

Then we cried to the LORD, the God of our fathers. The LORD heard our voice, and saw our affliction, our toil, and our oppression.

8 Y sacónos Jehová de Egipto con mano fuerte y con brazo extendido, y con espanto grande, y con señales y con milagros.

The LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, with great terror, with signs, and with wonders;

9 Y trájonos a este lugar, y diónos esta tierra, tierra que corre leche y miel.

and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

10 Y ahora, he aquí, he traído las primicias del fruto de la tierra que me diste, oh Jehová. Y dejarlo has delante de Jehová tu Dios, e inclinarte has delante de Jehová tu Dios.

Now, behold, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, the LORD, have given me.” You shall set it down before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God.

11 Y alegrarte has con todo el bien que Jehová tu Dios te hubiere dado a ti y a tu casa, tú y el Levita y el extranjero que está en medio de ti.

You shall rejoice in all the good which the LORD your God has given to you, and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is amongst you.

12 Cuando hubieres acabado de diezmar todo el diezmo de tus frutos en el año tercero, el año del diezmo, darás también al Levita, al extranjero, al huérfano, y a la viuda, y comerán en tus villas, y hartarse han.

When you have finished tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates and be filled.

13 Y dirás delante de Jehová tu Dios: Yo he sacado la santidad de casa, y también la he dado al Levita, y al extranjero, y al huérfano, y a la viuda, conforme a todos tus mandamientos que me mandaste: no he pasado de tus mandamientos, ni me he olvidado.

You shall say before the LORD your God, “I have put away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandment which you have commanded me. I have not transgressed any of your commandments, neither have I forgotten them.

14 No he comido de ella en mi luto, ni he sacado de ella en inmundicia, ni he dado de ella para mortuorio: obedecido he a la voz de Jehová mi Dios, hecho he conforme a todo lo que me has mandado.

I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor given of it for the dead. I have listened to the LORD my God’s voice. I have done according to all that you have commanded me.

15 Mira desde la morada de tu santidad, desde el cielo, y bendice a tu pueblo Israel, y a la tierra que nos has dado, como juraste a nuestros padres, tierra que corre leche y miel.

Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.”

16 Jehová tu Dios te manda hoy, que hagas estos estatutos y derechos: guarda pues que los hagas con todo tu corazón, y con toda tu alma.

Today the LORD your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances. You shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart and with all your soul.

17 A Jehová has ensalzado hoy para ser a ti por Dios, y para andar en sus caminos, y para guardar sus estatutos y sus mandamientos, y sus derechos, y para oír su voz.

You have declared today that the LORD is your God, and that you would walk in his ways, keep his statutes, his commandments, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice.

18 Y Jehová te ha ensalzado hoy para ser a él por pueblo singular, como él te lo ha dicho, y para guardar todos sus mandamientos:

The LORD has declared today that you are a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments.

19 Y para ponerte alto sobre todas las gentes que hizo para loor, y fama, y gloria: y para que seas pueblo santo a Jehová tu Dios, como él ha dicho.

He will make you high above all nations that he has made, in praise, in name, and in honour, and that you may be a holy people to the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
