Ponovljeni zakon 6
1 Ovo su zapovijedi, zakoni i uredbe koje mi Jahve, Bog vaš, zapovjedi da vas u njima poučim, kako biste ih vršili u zemlji u koju odlazite da je zaposjednete;
And these [are] the commands, and the ordinances, and the judgements, as many as the Lord our God gave commandment to teach you to do so in the land on which you enter to inherit it.
2 da se svega svog vijeka bojiš Jahve, Boga svoga, ti, sin tvoj i sin tvoga sina, vršeći sve zakone njegove i sve zapovijedi njegove što ti ih danas propisujem, pa da imaš dug život.
That you may fear the Lord your God, keep you all his ordinances, and his commandments, which I command you today, you, and your sons, and your sons' sons, all the days of your life, that you may live many days.
3 Slušaj, Izraele, drži ih i vrši da ti dobro bude i da se razmnožiš u zemlji kojom teče med i mlijeko, kao što ti je obećao Jahve, Bog otaca tvojih.
Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do them, that it may be well with you, and that you may be greatly multiplied, as the Lord God of your fathers said that he would give you a land flowing with milk and honey: and these [are] the ordinances, and the judgements, which the Lord commanded the children of Israel in the wilderness, when they had gone forth from the land of Egypt.
4 Čuj, Izraele! Jahve je Bog naš, Jahve je jedan!
Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord.
5 Zato ljubi Jahvu, Boga svoga, svim srcem svojim, svom dušom svojom i svom snagom svojom!
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your mind, and with all your soul, and all your strength.
6 Riječi ove što ti ih danas naređujem neka ti se urežu u srce.
And these words, all that I command you this day, shall be in your heart and in your soul.
7 Napominji ih svojim sinovima. Govori im o njima kad sjediš u svojoj kući i kad ideš putem; kad liježeš i kad ustaješ.
And you shall teach them to your children, and you shall speak of them sitting in the house, and walking by the way, and lying down, and rising up.
8 Priveži ih na svoju ruku za znak i neka ti budu kao zapis među očima!
And you shall fasten them for a sign upon your hand, and it shall be immoveable before your eyes.
9 Ispiši ih na dovratnicima kuće svoje i na vratima svojim!
And you shall write them on the lintels of your houses and of your gates.
10 A kad te Jahve, Bog tvoj, dovede u zemlju za koju se zakleo tvojim ocima, Abrahamu, Izaku i Jakovu, da će je tebi dati - u velike i lijepe gradove kojih nisi zidao;
And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land which he sware to your fathers, to Abraam, and to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you great and beautiful cities which you did not build,
11 u kuće pune svakog dobra kojih nisi punio; na iskopane čatrnje kojih nisi kopao; u vinograde i maslinike kojih nisi sadio - i sit se najedeš:
houses full of all good things which you did not fill, wells dug in the rock which you did not dig, vineyards and olive yards which you did not plant, then having eaten and been filled,
12 pazi da ne zaboraviš Jahvu koji te izveo iz zemlje egipatske, iz kuće ropstva.
beware lest you forget the Lord your God that brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
13 Boj se Jahve, Boga svoga; njemu iskazuj štovanje; njegovim imenom polaži prisegu.
You shall fear the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve; and you shall cleave to him, and by his name you shall swear.
14 Ne idite za drugim bogovima između bogova drugih naroda što su oko vas.
Go you not after other gods of the gods of the nations round about you;
15 Jer je Jahve, Bog tvoj, što stoji u sredini tvojoj, ljubomoran Bog; gnjev bi Jahve, Boga tvoga, usplamtio protiv tebe i istrijebio te sa zemlje.
for the Lord your God in the midst of you [is] a jealous God, lest the Lord your God be very angry with you, and destroy you from off the face of the earth.
16 Ne iskušavajte Jahvu, Boga svoga, kao što ste ga iskušavali kod Mase.
You shall not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted him in the temptation.
17 Točno vršite zapovijedi Jahve, Boga svoga, upute njegove i zakone njegove koje je izdao.
You shall by all means keep the commands of the Lord your God, the testimonies, and the ordinances, which he commanded you.
18 Čini što je pravo i dobro u očima Jahve da ti dobro bude i da se domogneš dobre zemlje za koju se Jahve zakleo tvojim ocima
And you shall do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord your God, that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and inherit the good land, which the Lord sware to your fathers,
19 da će iz nje protjerati sve tvoje neprijatelje ispred tebe; tako je obećao Jahve.
to chase all your enemies from before your face, as the Lord said.
20 A kad te sutra zapita tvoj sin: što su te upute, zakoni i uredbe što ih je Jahve, Bog naš, vama propisao -
And it shall come to pass when your son shall ask you at a future time, saying, What are the testimonies, and the ordinances, and the judgements, which the Lord our God has commanded us?
21 kaži svome sinu: 'Bili smo faraonovi robovi u Egiptu, ali nas je Jahve izveo iz Egipta jakom rukom.
Then shall you say to your son, We were slaves to Pharao in the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought us forth thence with a mighty hand, and with a high arm.
22 Na naše je oči Jahve učinio velike i strašne znakove i čudesa protiv Egipta, protiv faraona i protiv svega doma njegova,
And the Lord wrought signs and great and grievous wonders in Egypt, on Pharao and on his house before us.
23 a nas je odande izveo da nas dovede i dade nam zemlju koju je zakletvom obećao ocima našim.
And he brought us out thence to give us this land, which he sware to give to our fathers.
24 I naredio nam je Jahve da sve ove naredbe vršimo u strahopoštovanju prema Jahvi, Bogu svome, da bismo uvijek bili sretni i da živimo kao što je to danas.'
And the Lord charged us to observe all these ordinances; to fear the Lord our God, that it may be well with us for ever, that we may live, as even today.
25 Naša će, dakle, pravednost biti: držati i vršiti sve ove zapovijedi pred Jahvom, Bogom našim, kako nam je naredio.
And there shall be mercy to us, if we take heed to keep all these commands before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us.
