اَلتَّثْنِيَة 5
| وَدَعَا مُوسَى جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اِسْمَعْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ ٱلْفَرَائِضَ وَٱلْأَحْكَامَ ٱلَّتِي أَتَكَلَّمُ بِهَا فِي مَسَامِعِكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ، وَتَعَلَّمُوهَا وَٱحْتَرِزُوا لِتَعْمَلُوهَا. | ١ 1 |
Moses [Drawn out] called to all Israel [God prevails], and said to them, “Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, Israel [God prevails], the statutes and the judgments which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them.”
| اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا قَطَعَ مَعَنَا عَهْدًا فِي حُورِيبَ. | ٢ 2 |
Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] made a covenant with us in Horeb [Desert].
| لَيْسَ مَعَ آبَائِنَا قَطَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدَ، بَلْ مَعَنَا نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ هُنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ جَمِيعُنَا أَحْيَاءٌ. | ٣ 3 |
Adonai didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today.
| وَجْهًا لِوَجْهٍ تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَنَا فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ. | ٤ 4 |
Adonai spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire,
| أَنَا كُنْتُ وَاقِفًا بَيْنَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَبَيْنَكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ لِكَيْ أُخْبِرَكُمْ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّكُمْ خِفْتُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلنَّارِ، وَلَمْ تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ. فَقَالَ: | ٥ 5 |
(I stood between Adonai and you at that time, to show you Adonai’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto the mountain) saying,
| أَنَا هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجَكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ. | ٦ 6 |
“I am Yahweh [He sustains breathing] your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], out of the house of bondage.
| لَا يَكُنْ لَكَ آلِهَةٌ أُخْرَى أَمَامِي. | ٧ 7 |
“You shall have no other deities before me.
| لَا تَصْنَعْ لَكَ تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا صُورَةً مَّا مِمَّا فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ وَمَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ وَمَا فِي ٱلْمَاءِ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٨ 8 |
“You shall not make an engraved image for yourself, any likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
| لَا تَسْجُدْ لَهُنَّ وَلَا تَعْبُدْهُنَّ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَهٌ غَيُورٌ، أَفْتَقِدُ ذُنُوبَ ٱلْآبَاءِ فِي ٱلْأَبْنَاءِ وَفِي ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلثَّالِثِ وَٱلرَّابِعِ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَنِي، | ٩ 9 |
You shall not hawa ·bow low, prostrate· yourself down to them, nor abad ·serve· them; for I, Yahweh [He sustains breathing], your God, am El Kana' [Jealous God], visiting the depravity (moral evil) of the fathers on the children, and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me;
| وَأَصْنَعُ إِحْسَانًا إِلَى أُلُوفٍ مِنْ مُحِبِّيَّ وَحَافِظِي وَصَايَايَ. | ١٠ 10 |
and showing chesed ·loving-kindness· to thousands of those who 'ahav ·affectionately love· me and keep my mitzvot ·instructions·.
| لَا تَنْطِقْ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ بَاطِلًا، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَا يُبْرِئُ مَنْ نَطَقَ بِٱسْمِهِ بَاطِلًا. | ١١ 11 |
“You shall not use את the name of Adonai your God worthlessly: for Adonai את will not hold him guiltless who takes את his name in vain.
| اِحْفَظْ يَوْمَ ٱلسَّبْتِ لِتُقَدِّسَهُ كَمَا أَوْصَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ١٢ 12 |
“Observe the Shabath ·Intermission· day, to keep it holy, as Adonai your God enjoined you.
| سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ تَشْتَغِلُ وَتَعْمَلُ جَمِيعَ أَعْمَالِكَ، | ١٣ 13 |
You shall labor six days, and do all your work;
| وَأَمَّا ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلسَّابِعُ فَسَبْتٌ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لَا تَعْمَلْ فِيهِ عَمَلًا مَّا أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُكَ وَٱبْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَثَوْرُكَ وَحِمَارُكَ وَكُلُّ بَهَائِمِكَ، وَنَزِيلُكَ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكَ لِكَيْ يَسْتَرِيحَ، عَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ مِثْلَكَ. | ١٤ 14 |
but the seventh day is a Shabath ·Intermission· to Adonai your God, in which you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.
| وَٱذْكُرْ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَبْدًا فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَأَخْرَجَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ بِيَدٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ مَمْدُودَةٍ. لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَوْصَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَنْ تَحْفَظَ يَوْمَ ٱلسَّبْتِ. | ١٥ 15 |
You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and Adonai your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore Adonai your God enjoined you to keep the Shabath ·Intermission· day.
| أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ كَمَا أَوْصَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، لِكَيْ تَطُولَ أَيَّامُكَ، وَلِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ خَيْرٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ١٦ 16 |
“Honor your father and your mother, as Adonai your God enjoined you; that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you, in the land which Adonai your God gives you.
| لَا تَقْتُلْ، | ١٧ 17 |
“You shall not murder.
| وَلَا تَزْنِ، | ١٨ 18 |
“You shall not commit adultery.
| وَلَا تَسْرِقْ، | ١٩ 19 |
“You shall not steal.
| وَلَا تَشْهَدْ عَلَى قَرِيبِكَ شَهَادَةَ زُورٍ، | ٢٠ 20 |
“You shall not give false witness against your neighbor.
| وَلَا تَشْتَهِ ٱمْرَأَةَ قَرِيبِكَ، وَلَا تَشْتَهِ بَيْتَ قَرِيبِكَ وَلَا حَقْلَهُ وَلَا عَبْدَهُ وَلَا أَمَتَهُ وَلَا ثَوْرَهُ وَلَا حِمَارَهُ وَلَا كُلَّ مَا لِقَرِيبِكَ. | ٢١ 21 |
“You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your wrote neighbor’s.”
| هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتُ كَلَّمَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ جَمَاعَتِكُمْ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ وَٱلسَّحَابِ وَٱلضَّبَابِ، وَصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ وَلَمْ يَزِدْ. وَكَتَبَهَا عَلَى لَوْحَيْنِ مِنْ حَجَرٍ وَأَعْطَانِي إِيَّاهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Adonai spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.
| «فَلَمَّا سَمِعْتُمُ ٱلصَّوْتَ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلظَّلَامِ، وَٱلْجَبَلُ يَشْتَعِلُ بِٱلنَّارِ، تَقَدَّمْتُمْ إِلَيَّ، جَمِيعُ رُؤَسَاءِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ وَشُيُوخُكُمْ | ٢٣ 23 |
When you sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
| وَقُلْتُمْ: هُوَذَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا قَدْ أَرَانَا مَجْدَهُ وَعَظَمَتَهُ، وَسَمِعْنَا صَوْتَهُ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ. هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ قَدْ رَأَيْنَا أَنَّ ٱللهَ يُكَلِّمُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَيَحْيَا. | ٢٤ 24 |
and you said, “Behold, Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] has shown us his kavod ·weighty glory· and his greatness, and we have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives.
| وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَلِمَاذَا نَمُوتُ؟ لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ تَأْكُلُنَا. إِنْ عُدْنَا نَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَيْضًا نَمُوتُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Now therefore why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we sh'ma ·hear obey· Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God]’s voice any more, then we shall die.
| لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ هُوَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَشَرِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعَ صَوْتَ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ مِثْلَنَا وَعَاشَ؟ | ٢٦ 26 |
For who is there of all flesh, that has sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the voice of the Elohim Chayim [Living God] speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
| تَقَدَّمْ أَنْتَ وَٱسْمَعْ كُلَّ مَا يَقُولُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، وَكَلِّمْنَا بِكُلِّ مَا يُكَلِّمُكَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، فَنَسْمَعَ وَنَعْمَلَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Go near, and sh'ma ·hear obey· all that Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] shall say, and tell us all that Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God] tells you; and we will sh'ma ·hear obey· it, and do it.”
| فَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ صَوْتَ كَلَامِكُمْ حِينَ كَلَّمْتُمُونِي وَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ كَلَامِ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمُوكَ بِهِ. قَدْ أَحْسَنُوا فِي كُلِّ مَا تَكَلَّمُوا. | ٢٨ 28 |
Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the voice of your words, when you spoke to me; and Adonai said to me, “I have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken to you. They have well said all that they have spoken.
| يَا لَيْتَ قَلْبَهُمْ كَانَ هَكَذَا فِيهِمْ حَتَّى يَتَّقُونِي وَيَحْفَظُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَايَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَهُمْ وَلِأَوْلَادِهِمْ خَيْرٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Oh that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my mitzvot ·instructions· always, that it might be well with them, and with their children forever!
| اِذْهَبْ قُلْ لَهُمْ: ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَى خِيَامِكُمْ. | ٣٠ 30 |
“Go tell them, ‘Teshuvah ·Completely return· to your tents.’
| وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَقِفْ هُنَا مَعِي فَأُكَلِّمَكَ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلْوَصَايَا وَٱلْفَرَائِضِ وَٱلْأَحْكَامِ ٱلَّتِي تُعَلِّمُهُمْ فَيَعْمَلُونَهَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُعْطِيهِمْ لِيَمْتَلِكُوهَا. | ٣١ 31 |
But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the mitzvot ·instructions·, 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.”
| فَٱحْتَرِزُوا لِتَعْمَلُوا كَمَا أَمَرَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. لَا تَزِيغُوا يَمِينًا وَلَا يَسَارًا. | ٣٢ 32 |
You shall observe to do therefore as Adonai your God has enjoined you. You shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
| فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَاكُمْ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ تَسْلُكُونَ، لِكَيْ تَحْيَوْا وَيَكُونَ لَكُمْ خَيْرٌ وَتُطِيلُوا ٱلْأَيَّامَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي تَمْتَلِكُونَهَا. | ٣٣ 33 |
You shall walk in all the way which Adonai your God has enjoined you, that you may live, and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
