Deuteronomy 1
1 These [are] the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on this side Jordan in the desert towards the west near the Red Sea, between Pharan Tophol, and Lobon, and Aulon, and the gold works.
以下所记的是摩西在约旦河东的旷野、疏弗对面的亚拉巴—就是巴兰、陀弗、拉班、哈洗录、底撒哈中间—向以色列众人所说的话。（
2 [It is] a journey of eleven days from Choreb to mount Seir as far as Cades Barne.
从何烈山经过西珥山到加低斯·巴尼亚有十一天的路程。）
3 And it came to pass in the forties year, in the eleventh month, on the first [day] of the month, Moses spoke to all the children of Israel, according to all things which the Lord commanded him for them:
出埃及第四十年十一月初一日，摩西照耶和华借着他所吩咐以色列人的话都晓谕他们。
4 after he had struck Seon king of the Amorites who lived in Esebon, and Og the king of Basan who lived in Astaroth and in Edrain;
那时，他已经击杀了住希实本的亚摩利王西宏和住以得来、亚斯他录的巴珊王噩。
5 beyond Jordan in the land of Moab, Moses began to declare this law, saying,
摩西在约旦河东的摩押地讲律法说：
6 The Lord your God spoke to us in Choreb, saying, Let it suffice you to have lived [so long] in this mountain.
“耶和华—我们的 神在何烈山晓谕我们说：你们在这山上住的日子够了；
7 Turn you and depart and enter into the mountain of the Amorites, and [go] to all that dwell near about Araba, to the mountain and the plain and to the south, and the land of the Chananites near the sea, and Antilibanus, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates.
要起行转到亚摩利人的山地和靠近这山地的各处，就是亚拉巴、山地、高原、南地，沿海一带迦南人的地，并黎巴嫩山又到幼发拉底大河。
8 Behold, [God] has delivered the land before you; go in and inherit the land, which I sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob, to give it to them and to their seed after them.
如今我将这地摆在你们面前；你们要进去得这地，就是耶和华向你们列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各起誓应许赐给他们和他们后裔为业之地。”
9 And I spoke to you at that time, saying, I shall not be able by myself to bear you.
“那时，我对你们说：‘管理你们的重任，我独自担当不起。
10 The Lord your God has multiplied you, and, behold, you are today as the stars of heaven for multitude.
耶和华—你们的 神使你们多起来。看哪，你们今日像天上的星那样多。
11 The Lord God of your fathers add to you a thousand-fold more than you are, and bless you as he has spoken to you.
惟愿耶和华—你们列祖的 神使你们比如今更多千倍，照他所应许你们的话赐福与你们。
12 How shall I alone be able to bear your labour, and your burden, and your gainsayings?
但你们的麻烦，和管理你们的重任，并你们的争讼，我独自一人怎能担当得起呢？
13 Take to yourselves wise and understanding and prudent men for your tribes, and I will set your leaders over you.
你们要按着各支派选举有智慧、有见识、为众人所认识的，我立他们为你们的首领。’
14 And you answered me and said, The thing which you have told us [is] good to do.
你们回答我说：‘照你所说的行了为妙。’
15 So I took of you wise and understanding and prudent men, and I set them to rule over you as rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, and rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens, and officers to your judges.
我便将你们各支派的首领，有智慧、为众人所认识的，照你们的支派，立他们为官长、千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长，管理你们。
16 And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear [causes] between your brethren, and judge rightly between a man and [his] brother, and the stranger that is with him.
“当时，我嘱咐你们的审判官说：‘你们听讼，无论是弟兄彼此争讼，是与同居的外人争讼，都要按公义判断。
17 You shall not have respect to persons in judgement, you shall judge small and great equally; you shall not shrink from before the person of a man, for the judgement is God's; and whatever matter shall be too hard for you, you shall bring it to me, and I will hear it.
审判的时候，不可看人的外貌；听讼不可分贵贱，不可惧怕人，因为审判是属乎 神的。若有难断的案件，可以呈到我这里，我就判断。’
18 And I charged upon you at that time all the commands which you shall perform.
那时，我将你们所当行的事都吩咐你们了。”
19 And we departed from Choreb, and went through all that great wilderness and terrible, which you saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite, as the Lord our God charged us, and we came as far as Cades Barne.
“我们照着耶和华—我们 神所吩咐的从何烈山起行，经过你们所看见那大而可怕的旷野，往亚摩利人的山地去，到了加低斯·巴尼亚。
20 And I said to you, You have come as far as the mountain of the Amorite, which the Lord our God gives to you:
我对你们说：‘你们已经到了耶和华—我们 神所赐给我们的亚摩利人之山地。
21 behold, the Lord your God has delivered to us the land before you: go up and inherit it as the Lord God of your fathers said to you; fear not, neither be afraid.
看哪，耶和华—你的 神已将那地摆在你面前，你要照耶和华—你列祖的 神所说的上去得那地为业；不要惧怕，也不要惊惶。’
22 And you all came to me, and said, Let us send men before us, and let them go up to the land for us; and let them bring back to us a report of the way by which we shall go up, and of the cities into which we shall enter.
你们都就近我来说：‘我们要先打发人去，为我们窥探那地，将我们上去该走何道，必进何城，都回报我们。’
23 And the saying pleased me: and I took of you twelve men, one man of a tribe.
这话我以为美，就从你们中间选了十二个人，每支派一人。
24 And they turned and went up to the mountain, and they came as far as the valley of the cluster, and surveyed it.
于是他们起身上山地去，到以实各谷，窥探那地。
25 And they took in their hands of the fruit of the land, and brought it to you, and said, The land is good which the Lord our God gives us.
他们手里拿着那地的果子下来，到我们那里，回报说：‘耶和华—我们的 神所赐给我们的是美地。’
26 Yet you would not go up, but rebelled against the words of the Lord our God.
“你们却不肯上去，竟违背了耶和华—你们 神的命令，
27 And you murmured in your tents, and said, Because the Lord hated us, he has brought us out of the land of Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us.
在帐棚内发怨言说：‘耶和华因为恨我们，所以将我们从埃及地领出来，要交在亚摩利人手中，除灭我们。
28 Whither do we go up? and your brethren drew away your heart, saying, [It is a] great nation and populous, and mightier than we; and [there are] cities great and walled up to heaven: moreover we saw there the sons of the giants.
我们上哪里去呢？我们的弟兄使我们的心消化，说那地的民比我们又大又高，城邑又广大又坚固，高得顶天，并且我们在那里看见亚衲族的人。’
29 And I said to you, Fear not, neither be you afraid of them;
我就对你们说：‘不要惊恐，也不要怕他们。
30 the Lord your God who goes before your face, he shall fight against them together with you effectually, according to all that he wrought for you in the land of Egypt;
在你们前面行的耶和华—你们的 神必为你们争战，正如他在埃及和旷野，在你们眼前所行的一样。
31 and in this wilderness which you saw, by the way of the mountain of the Amorite; how the Lord your God will bear you as a nursling, as if any man should nurse his child, through all the way which you have gone until you came to this place.
你们在旷野所行的路上，也曾见耶和华—你们的 神抚养你们，如同人抚养儿子一般，直等你们来到这地方。’
32 And in this matter you believed not the Lord our God,
你们在这事上却不信耶和华—你们的 神。
33 who goes before you in the way to choose you a place, guiding you in fire by night, showing you the way by which you go, and a cloud by day.
他在路上，在你们前面行，为你们找安营的地方；夜间在火柱里，日间在云柱里，指示你们所当行的路。”
34 And the Lord heard the voice of your words, and being greatly provoked he sware, saying,
“耶和华听见你们这话，就发怒，起誓说：
35 Not one of these men shall see this good land, which I sware to their fathers,
‘这恶世代的人，连一个也不得见我起誓应许赐给你们列祖的美地；
36 except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, he shall see it; and to him I will give the land on which he went up, and to his sons, because he attended to the things of the Lord.
惟有耶孚尼的儿子迦勒必得看见，并且我要将他所踏过的地赐给他和他的子孙，因为他专心跟从我。’
37 And the Lord was angry with me for your sake, saying, Neither shall you by any means enter therein.
耶和华为你的缘故也向我发怒，说：‘你必不得进入那地。
38 Joshua the son of Naue, who stands by you, he shall enter in there; do you strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
伺候你、嫩的儿子约书亚，他必得进入那地；你要勉励他，因为他要使以色列人承受那地为业。
39 And every young child who this day knows not good or evil, —they shall enter therein, and to them I will give it, and they shall inherit it.
并且你们的妇人孩子，就是你们所说、必被掳掠的，和今日不知善恶的儿女，必进入那地。我要将那地赐给他们，他们必得为业。
40 And you turned and marched into the wilderness, in the way by the Red Sea.
至于你们，要转回，从红海的路往旷野去。’
41 And you answered and said, We have sinned before the Lord our God; we will go up and fight according to all that the Lord our God has commanded us: and having taken every one his weapons of war, and being gathered together, you went up to the mountain.
“那时，你们回答我说：‘我们得罪了耶和华，情愿照耶和华—我们 神一切所吩咐的上去争战。’于是你们各人带着兵器，争先上山地去了。
42 And the Lord said to me, Tell them, You shall not go up, neither shall you fight, for I am not with you; thus shall you not be destroyed before your enemies.
耶和华吩咐我说：‘你对他们说：不要上去，也不要争战；因我不在你们中间，恐怕你们被仇敌杀败了。’
43 And I spoke to you, and you did not listen to me; and you transgressed the commandment of the Lord; and you forced your way and went up into the mountain.
我就告诉了你们，你们却不听从，竟违背耶和华的命令，擅自上山地去了。
44 And the Amorite who lived in that mountain came out to meet you, and pursued you as bees do, and wounded you from Seir to Herma.
住那山地的亚摩利人就出来攻击你们，追赶你们，如蜂拥一般，在西珥杀退你们，直到何珥玛。
45 And you sat down and wept before the Lord our God, and the Lord listened not to your voice, neither did he take heed to you.
你们便回来，在耶和华面前哭号；耶和华却不听你们的声音，也不向你们侧耳。
46 And you lived in Cades many days, as many days as you lived [there].
于是你们在加低斯住了许多日子。”
