Deuteronomy 6
1 These now are the commandements, ordinances, and lawes, which the Lord your God commanded me to teach you, that ye might doe them in the land whither ye go to possesse it:
Haec sunt praecepta, et ceremoniae, atque iudicia, quae mandavit Dominus Deus vester ut docerem vos, et faciatis ea in Terra, ad quam transgredimini possidendam:
2 That thou mightest feare the Lord thy God, and keepe all his ordinances, and his commandements which I commaund thee, thou, and thy sonne, and thy sonnes sonne all the dayes of thy life, euen that thy dayes may be prolonged.
ut timeas Dominum Deum tuum, et custodias omnia mandata et praecepta eius, quae ego praecipio tibi, et filiis, ac nepotibus tuis, cunctis diebus vitae tuae, ut prolongentur dies tui.
3 Heare therefore, O Israel, and take heede to doe it, that it may go well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily in the land that floweth with milke and hony, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee.
Audi Israel, et observa ut facias quae praecepit tibi Dominus, et bene sit tibi, et multipliceris amplius, sicut pollicitus est Dominus Deus patrum tuorum tibi terram lacte et melle manantem.
4 Heare, O Israel, The Lord our God is Lord onely,
Audi Israel, Dominus Deus noster, Deus unus est.
5 And thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy might.
Diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et ex tota anima tua, et ex tota fortitudine tua.
6 And these wordes which I commaund thee this day, shalbe in thine heart.
Eruntque verba haec, quae ego praecipio tibi hodie, in corde tuo:
7 And thou shalt rehearse them continually vnto thy children, and shalt talke of them when thou tariest in thine house, and as thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest downe, and when thou risest vp:
et narrabis ea filiis tuis, et meditaberis in eis sedens in domo tua, et ambulans in itinere, dormiens atque consurgens.
8 And thou shalt binde them for a signe vpon thine hand, and they shalbe as frontlets betweene thine eyes.
Et ligabis ea quasi signum in manu tua, eruntque et movebuntur inter oculos tuos,
9 Also thou shalt write them vpon ye postes of thine house, and vpon thy gates.
scribesque ea in limine, et ostiis domus tuae.
10 And when the Lord thy God hath brought thee into the land, which he sware vnto thy fathers, Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob, to giue to thee, with great and goodly cities which thou buildedst not,
Cumque introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in Terram, pro qua iuravit patribus tuis Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob: et dederit tibi civitates magnas et optimas, quas non aedificasti,
11 And houses full of all maner of goods which thou filledst not, and welles digged which thou diggedst not, vineyards and oliue trees which thou plantedst not, and when thou hast eaten and art full,
domos plenas cunctarum opum, quas non extruxisti, cisternas, quas non fodisti, vineta et oliveta, quae non plantasti,
12 Beware least thou forget the Lord, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
et comederis, et saturatus fueris:
13 Thou shalt feare the Lord thy God, and serue him, and shalt sweare by his Name.
cave diligenter ne obliviscaris Domini, qui eduxit te de Terra Aegypti, de domo servitutis. Dominum Deum tuum timebis, et illi soli servies, ac per nomen illius iurabis.
14 Ye shall not walke after other gods, after any of the gods of the people which are round about you,
Non ibitis post deos alienos cunctarum Gentium, quae in circuitu vestro sunt:
15 (For the Lord thy God is a ielous God among you: ) least the wrath of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from the face of the earth.
quoniam Deus aemulator Dominus Deus tuus in medio tui: nequando irascatur furor Domini Dei tui contra te, et auferat te de superficie terrae.
16 Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye did tempt him in Massah:
Non tentabis Dominum Deum tuum, sicut tentasti in loco tentationis.
17 But ye shall keepe diligently the commandements of the Lord your God, and his testimonies, and his ordinances which he hath commanded thee,
Custodi praecepta Domini Dei tui, ac testimonia et ceremonias, quas praecepit tibi:
18 And thou shalt doe that which is right and good in the sight of the Lord: that thou mayest prosper, and that thou mayest go in, and possesse that good land which the Lord sware vnto thy fathers,
et fac quod placitum est et bonum in conspectu Domini, ut bene sit tibi: et ingressus possideas terram optimam, de qua iuravit Dominus patribus tuis,
19 To cast out all thine enemies before thee, as the Lord hath sayd.
ut deleret omnes inimicos tuos coram te, sicut locutus est.
20 When thy sonne shall aske thee in time to come, saying, What meane these testimonies, and ordinances, and Lawes, which the Lord our God hath commanded you?
Cumque interrogaverit te filius tuus cras, dicens: Quid sibi volunt testimonia haec, et ceremoniae, atque iudicia, quae praecepit Dominus Deus noster nobis?
21 Then shalt thou say vnto thy sonne, We were Pharaohs bondmen in Egypt: but the Lord brought vs out of Egypt with a mightie hand.
dices ei: Servi eramus Pharaonis in Aegypto, et eduxit nos Dominus de Aegypto in manu forti:
22 And the Lord shewed signes and wonders great and euill vpon Egypt, vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his housholde, before our eyes,
fecitque signa atque prodigia magna et pessima in Aegypto contra Pharaonem, et omnem domum illius in conspectu nostro,
23 And brought vs out from thence, to bring vs in, and to giue vs the land which he sware vnto our fathers.
et eduxit nos inde, ut introductis daret Terram, super qua iuravit patribus nostris.
24 Therefore the Lord hath commanded vs, to doe all these ordinances, and to feare the Lord our God, that it may goe euer well with vs, and that he may preserue vs aliue as at this present.
Praecepitque nobis Dominus ut faciamus omnia legitima haec, et timeamus Dominum Deum nostrum, ut bene sit nobis cunctis diebus vitae nostrae, sicut est hodie.
25 Moreouer, this shall be our righteousnes before the Lord our God, if we take heede to keepe all these commandements, as he hath commanded vs.
Eritque nostri misericors, si custodierimus et fecerimus omnia praecepta eius coram Domino Deo nostro, sicut mandavit nobis.
