Exodus 20
1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
Bog je spregovoril vse te besede, rekoč:
2 I am the LORD your God, which have brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
»Jaz sem Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki sem te privedel iz egiptovske dežele, iz hiše sužnosti.
3 You shall have no other gods before me.
Pred menoj ne boš imel nobenih drugih bogov.
4 You shall not make to you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Sebi ne boš naredil nobene rezane podobe ali kakršnekoli podobnosti čemurkoli, kar je zgoraj na nebu ali kar je spodaj na zemlji ali kar je v vodi pod zemljo.
5 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
Ne boš se jim priklanjal niti jim ne boš služil, kajti jaz, Gospod, tvoj Bog, sem ljubosumen Bog, ki obiskujem krivičnost očetov na otrocih do tretjega in četrtega rodu tistih, ki me sovražijo,
6 And showing mercy to thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
izkazujem pa usmiljenje tisočem tistih, ki me ljubijo in varujejo moje zapovedi.
7 You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
Ne boš v prazno vzel imena Gospoda, svojega Boga; kajti Gospod ne bo držal brez krivde tistega, ki v prazno jemlje njegovo ime.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Spominjaj se šabatnega dne, da ga ohraniš svetega.
9 Six days shall you labor, and do all your work:
Šest dni se boš trudil in opravljal vse svoje delo,
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates:
toda sedmi dan je šabat Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu. Na [ta dan] ne boš opravljal nobenega dela, ne ti, niti tvoj sin, niti tvoja hči, [niti] tvoj sluga, niti tvoja dekla, niti tvoja živina, niti tvoj tujec, ki je znotraj tvojih velikih vrat,
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: why the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
kajti v šestih dneh je Gospod naredil nebo in zemljo, morje in vse, kar je v njih, sedmi dan pa je počival. Zato je Gospod blagoslovil šabatni dan in ga posvetil.
12 Honor your father and your mother: that your days may be long on the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Spoštuj svojega očeta in svojo mater, da bodo tvoji dnevi lahko dolgi na zemlji, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog.
13 You shall not kill.
Ne boš ubil.
14 You shall not commit adultery.
Ne boš zagrešil zakonolomstva.
15 You shall not steal.
Ne boš kradel.
16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Ne boš prinašal krivega pričevanja zoper svojega bližnjega.
17 You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is your neighbor’s.
Ne boš hlepel [po] hiši svojega bližnjega, ne boš hlepel [po] ženi svojega bližnjega, niti [po] njegovem slugi, niti [po] njegovi dekli, niti [po] njegovem volu, niti [po] njegovem oslu, niti [po] katerikoli stvari, ki je od tvojega bližnjega!«
18 And all the people saw the thunder, and the lightning, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
In vse ljudstvo je videlo grmenja in bliske, zvok šofarja in kadečo goro. Ko je ljudstvo to videlo, so se odstranili in stali daleč stran.
19 And they said to Moses, Speak you with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
Mojzesu pa so rekli: »Ti govori z nami, mi pa bomo poslušali, toda Bog naj z nami ne govori, da ne bi umrli.«
20 And Moses said to the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that you sin not.
Mojzes je ljudstvu rekel: »Ne bojte se, kajti Bog je prišel, da vas preizkusi in da je njegov strah lahko pred vašimi obrazi, da ne grešite.«
21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was.
Ljudstvo je stalo daleč stran, Mojzes pa se je približal gosti temi, kjer je bil Bog.
22 And the LORD said to Moses, Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, You have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Tako boš rekel Izraelovim otrokom: ›Videli ste, da sem z vami govoril iz nebes.
23 You shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall you make to you gods of gold.
Poleg mene ne boste delali bogov iz srebra niti si ne boste delali bogov iz zlata.
24 An altar of earth you shall make to me, and shall sacrifice thereon your burnt offerings, and your peace offerings, your sheep, and your oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come to you, and I will bless you.
Naredil mi boš oltar iz zemlje in na njem boš žrtvoval svoje žgalne daritve in svoje mirovne daritve, svoje ovce in svoje vole. Na vseh krajih, kjer zapišem svoje ime, bom prišel k tebi in te blagoslovil.
25 And if you will make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stone: for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it.
Če mi hočeš narediti oltar iz kamna, ga ne boš zgradil iz klesanega kamna, kajti če svoje orodje dvigneš nanj, si ga oskrunil.
26 Neither shall you go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness be not discovered thereon.
Niti k mojemu oltarju ne boš šel gor po stopnicah, da na njih ne bo odkrita tvoja nagota.
