Deuteronomy 5

1 Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, “Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them.”

١ وَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى جَمِيعَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اسْمَعُوا يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الشَّرَائِعَ وَالأَحْكَامَ الَّتِي أَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْكُمْ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، وَتَعَلَّمُوهَا وَاحْرِصُوا عَلَى مُمَارَسَتِهَا.

2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.

٢ قَطَعَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا مَعَنَا عَهْداً فِي جَبَلِ حُورِيبَ.

3 The LORD did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today.

٣ لَيْسَ مَعَ آبَائِنَا قَطَعَ هَذَا الْعَهْدَ، إِنَّمَا مَعَنَا نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ هُنَا الْيَوْمَ جَمِيعاً أَحْيَاءُ،

4 The LORD spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire,

٤ إِذْ تَكَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ مَعَنَا فِي الْجَبَلِ مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ وَجْهاً لِوَجْهٍ.

5 (I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the LORD’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and did not go up onto the mountain) saying,

٥ وَكُنْتُ أَنَا وَاقِفاً بَيْنَ الرَّبِّ وَبَيْنَكُمْ، لأَنَّكُمْ خِفْتُمْ مِنَ النَّارَ، فَلَمْ تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى الْجَبَلِ. فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ:

6 “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

٦ أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ الَّذِي حَرَّرَكَ مِنْ سِجْنِ الْعُبُودِيَّةِ فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ.

7 “You shall have no other gods before me.

٧ لَا يَكُنْ لَكَ آلِهَةٌ أُخْرَى أَمَامِي.

8 “You shall not make a carved 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.

٨ لَا تَنْحَتْ لَكَ تِمْثَالاً، وَلا صُورَةً مَا مِمَّا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ وَمَا فِي الْمَاءِ تَحْتَ الأَرْضِ.

9 You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me

٩ لَا تَسْجُدْ لَهَا وَلا تَعْبُدْهَا، لأَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَهٌ غَيُورٌ، أَفْتَقِدُ مَعَاصِيَ الآبَاءِ فِي الأَبْنَاءِ حَتَّى الْجِيلِ الثَّالِثِ وَالرَّابِعِ مِنْ مُبْغِضِيَّ.

10 and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.

١٠ وَأُحْسِنُ إِلَى أُلُوفٍ مِنْ مُحِبِّيَّ وَطَائِعِي وَصَايَايَ.

11 “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.

١١ لَا تَنْطِقْ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ بَاطِلاً، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ لَا يُبْرِئُ مَنْ يَنْطِقُ بِاسْمِهِ بَاطِلاً.

12 “Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you.

١٢ احْفَظْ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ مُقَدَّساً كَمَا أَوْصَاكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

13 You shall labor six days, and do all your work;

١٣ سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ تَشْتَغِلُ وَتَقُومُ بِجَمِيعِ أَعْمَالِكَ،

14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, in which you shall not do any work—neither 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.

١٤ وَأَمَّا الْيَوْمُ السَّابِعُ فَيَكُونُ يَوْمَ رَاحَةٍ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لَا تَقُومُ فِيهِ بِأَيِّ عَمَلٍ أَنْتَ وَابْنُكَ وَابْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَثَوْرُكَ وَحِمَارُكَ وَكُلُّ بَهَائِمِكَ، وَالأَجْنَبِيُّ الْمُقِيمُ دَاخِلَ أَبْوَابِكَ، لِيَسْتَرِيحَ عَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ مِثْلَكَ.

15 You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.

١٥ وَتَذَكَّرْ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَبْداً فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، فَأَطْلَقَكَ الرَّبُّ مِنْ هُنَاكَ بِقُدْرَةٍ فَائِقَةٍ وَقُوَّةٍ شَدِيدَةٍ، لِهَذَا أَوْصَاكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَنْ تَرْتَاحَ فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ.

16 “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which the LORD your God gives you.

١٦ أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ كَمَا أَمَرَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، فَتَطُولَ أَيَّامُكَ وَيَكُونَ لَكَ خَيْرٌ عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي يُوَرِّثُهَا لَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

17 “You shall not murder.

١٧ لَا تَقْتُلْ.

18 “You shall not commit adultery.

١٨ لَا تَزْنِ.

19 “You shall not steal.

١٩ لَا تَسْرِقْ.

20 “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

٢٠ لَا تَشْهَدْ عَلَى جَارِكَ شَهَادَةَ زُورٍ.

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 neighbor’s.”

٢١ لَا تَشْتَهِ امْرَأَةَ غَيْرِكَ وَلا بَيْتَهُ وَلا حَقْلَهُ وَلا عَبْدَهُ وَلا أَمَتَهُ وَلا ثَوْرَهُ وَلا حِمَارَهُ وَلا أَيَّاً مِمَّا لَهُ.

22 The LORD 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 wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.

٢٢ إِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ أَعْلَنَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ لِكُلِّ جَمَاعَتِكُمْ فِي الْجَبَلِ مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ وَالسَّحَابِ وَلَمْ يَزِدْ. وَنَقَشَهَا عَلَى لَوْحَيْنِ مِنْ حَجَرٍ وَأَعْطَانِي إِيَّاهَا.

23 When you heard 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;

٢٣ فَلَمَّا سَمِعْتُمُ الصَّوْتَ مِنْ وَسَطِ الظَّلامِ، وَالْجَبَلُ يَشْتَعِلُ بِالنَّارِ، أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ جَمِيعُ قَادَةِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ وَشُيُوخِكُمْ،

24 and you said, “Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives.

٢٤ وَقَالُوا: قَدْ أَظْهَرَ الرَّبُّ لَنَا مَجْدَهُ وَعَظَمَتَهُ، وَسَمِعْنَا صَوْتَهُ مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ، وَرَأَيْنَا فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ أَنَّ اللهَ يُخَاطِبُ الإِنْسَانَ فَلا يَمُوتُ.

25 Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the LORD our God’s voice any more, then we shall die.

٢٥ وَلَكِنِ الآنَ، إِنْ عُدْنَا نَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ النَّارَ الْعَظِيمَةَ تَلْتَهِمُنَا. فَلِمَاذَا نَمُوتُ؟

26 For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?

٢٦ إِذْ أَيُّ بَشَرِيٍّ سَمِعَ صَوْتَ اللهِ الْحَيِّ يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ مِثْلَنَا وَعَاشَ؟

27 Go near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say, and tell us all that the LORD our God tells you; and we will hear it, and do it.”

٢٧ فَتَقَدَّمْ أَنْتَ وَاسْتَمِعْ كُلَّ مَا يَنْطِقُ بِهِ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، وَخَاطِبْنَا بِجَمِيعِ مَا يُكَلِّمُكَ بِهِ، فَنَسْتَمِعَ وَنُطِيعَ.

28 The LORD heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and the LORD said to me, “I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have well said all that they have spoken.

٢٨ فَسَمِعَ الرَّبُّ حَدِيثَكُمْ حِينَ كَلَّمْتُمُونِي، وَقَالَ لِي: لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ حَدِيثَ الشَّعْبِ الَّذِي كَلَّمُوكَ بِهِ. وَقَدْ أَحْسَنُوا فِي كُلِّ مَا قَالُوهُ.

29 Oh that there were such a 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 forever!

٢٩ يَا لَيْتَ قَلْبَهُمْ يَظَلُّ مُتَعَلِّقاً بِي حَتَّى يَتَّقُونِي وَيُطِيعُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَايَ دَائِماً، لِكَيْ يَتَمَتَّعُوا هُمْ وَأَوْلادُهُمْ بِالْخَيْرِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

30 “Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’

٣٠ اذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: ارْجِعُوا إِلَى خِيَامِكُمْ.

31 But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.”

٣١ وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَامْثُلْ هُنَا أَمَامِي، فَأُكَلِّمَكَ بِجَمِيعِ الْوَصَايَا وَالشَّرَائِعِ وَالأَحْكَامِ لِتُعَلِّمَهَا لَهُمْ فَيَعْمَلُوا بِها فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لَهُمْ لِيَمْتَلِكُوهَا.

32 You shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away to the right hand or to the left.

٣٢ فَاحْرِصُوا عَلَى الْعَمَلِ بِكُلِّ مَا أَمَرَكُمْ بِهِ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، لَا تَحِيدُوا يَمِيناً أَوْ شِمَالاً.

33 You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded 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.

٣٣ وَاسْلُكُوا فِي كُلِّ الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أَوْصَاكُمْ بِها الرَّبُّ لِتَحْيَوْا وَتَزْدَهِرُوا وَتَمْكُثُوا طَوِيلاً فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي تَرِثُونَهَا.
