Deuteronomy 11
1 “And you have loved your God YHWH, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, [for] all the days;
Ama itaque Dominum Deum tuum, et observa præcepta eius et ceremonias, iudicia atque mandata omni tempore.
2 and you have known today—for it is not your sons who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of your God YHWH, His greatness, His strong hand, and His outstretched arm;
Cognoscite hodie quæ ignorant filii vestri, qui non viderunt disciplinam Domini Dei vestri, magnalia eius et robustam manum, extentumque brachium,
3 and His signs and His doings which He has done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to all his land;
signa et opera quæ fecit in medio Ægypti Pharaoni regi, et universæ terræ eius,
4 and that which He has done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He has caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and YHWH destroys them, to this day;
omnique exercitui Ægyptiorum, et equis ac curribus: quo modo operuerint eos aquæ Maris Rubri, cum vos persequerentur, et deleverit eos Dominus usque in præsentem diem:
5 and that which He has done to you in the wilderness until your coming to this place;
vobisque quæ fecerit in solitudine donec veniretis ad hunc locum:
6 and that which He has done to Dathan and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth has opened her mouth and swallows them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that lives which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel—
et Dathan atque Abiron filiis Eliab, qui fuit filius Ruben: quos aperto ore suo terra absorbuit cum domibus et tabernaculis, et universa substantia eorum, quam habebant in medio Israel.
7 but [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of YHWH which He has done.
Oculi vestri viderunt opera Domini magna quæ fecit,
8 And you have kept all the command which I am commanding you today, so that you are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land to where you are passing over to possess it,
ut custodiatis universa mandata illius, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis, et possitis introire, et possidere Terram, ad quam ingredimini,
9 and so that you prolong days on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed—a land flowing with milk and honey.
multoque in ea vivatis tempore: quam sub iuramento pollicitus est Dominus patribus vestris, et semini eorum, lacte et melle manantem.
10 For the land to where you are going in to possess it is not as the land of Egypt from where you have come out, where you sow your seed and have watered with your foot, as a garden of the green herb;
Terra enim, ad quam ingrederis possidendam, non est sicut Terra Ægypti, de qua existi, ubi iacto semine in hortorum morem aquæ ducuntur irriguæ:
11 but the land to where you are passing over to possess it [is] a land of hills and valleys—it drinks water of the rain of the heavens—
sed montuosa est et campestris, de cælo expectans pluvias.
12 a land which your God YHWH is searching; the eyes of your God YHWH [are] continually on it, from the beginning of the year even to the latter end of the year.
Quam Dominus Deus tuus semper invisit, et oculi illius in ea sunt a principio anni usque ad finem eius.
13 And it has been, if you listen diligently to My commands which I am commanding you today, to love your God YHWH, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Si ergo obedieritis mandatis meis, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis, ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum, et serviatis ei in toto corde vestro, et in tota anima vestra:
14 then I have given the rain of your land in its season—autumn rain and spring rain—and you have gathered your grain, and your new wine, and your oil,
dabit pluviam terræ vestræ temporaneam et serotinam, ut colligatis frumentum, et vinum, et oleum,
15 and I have given herbs in your field for your livestock, and you have eaten and been satisfied.
fœnumque ex agris ad pascenda iumenta, et ut ipsi comedatis ac saturemini.
16 Take heed to yourselves lest your heart be enticed, and you have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,
Cavete ne forte decipiatur cor vestrum, et recedatis a Domino, serviatisque diis alienis, et adoretis eos:
17 and the anger of YHWH has burned against you, and He has restrained the heavens and there is no rain, and the ground does not give her increase, and you have perished quickly from off the good land which YHWH is giving to you.
iratusque Dominus claudat cælum, et pluviæ non descendant, nec terra det germen suum, pereatisque velociter de Terra optima, quam Dominus daturus est vobis.
18 And you have placed these words of mine on your heart and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;
Ponite hæc verba mea in cordibus et in animis vestris, et suspendite ea pro signo in manibus, et inter oculos vestros collocate.
19 and you have taught them to your sons by speaking of them in your sitting in your house, and in your going in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,
Docete filios vestros ut illa meditentur, quando sederis in domo tua, et ambulaveris in via, et accubueris atque surrexeris.
20 and have written them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
Scribes ea super postes et ianuas domus tuæ:
21 so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
ut multiplicentur dies tui, et filiorum tuorum in Terra, quam iuravit Dominus patribus tuis, ut daret eis quamdiu cælum imminet terræ.
22 For if you diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you to do—to love your God YHWH, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him—
Si enim custodieritis mandata quæ ego præcipio vobis, et feceritis ea, ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum, et ambuletis in omnibus viis eius, adhærentes ei,
23 then YHWH has dispossessed all these nations from before you, and you have possessed nations greater and mightier than you.
disperdet Dominus omnes gentes istas ante faciem vestram, et possidebitis eas, quæ maiores et fortiores vobis sunt.
24 Every place on which the sole of your foot treads is yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the Euphrates River, even to the Western Sea, is your border.
Omnis locus, quem calcaverit pes vester, vester erit. A deserto, et a Libano, a flumine magno Euphrate usque ad mare occidentale erunt termini vestri.
25 No man stations himself in your presence; your God YHWH puts your dread and your fear on the face of all the land on which you tread, as He has spoken to you.
Nullus stabit contra vos: terrorem vestrum et formidinem dabit Dominus Deus vester super omnem terram quam calcaturi estis, sicut locutus est vobis.
26 See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a reviling:
En propono in conspectu vestro hodie benedictionem et maledictionem:
27 the blessing when you listen to the commands of your God YHWH which I am commanding you today;
benedictionem, si obedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis:
28 and the reviling if you do not listen to the commands of your God YHWH, and have turned aside from the way which I am commanding you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
maledictionem, si non obedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri, sed recesseritis de via, quam ego nunc ostendo vobis, et ambulaveritis post deos alienos, quos ignoratis.
29 And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land to where you are going in to possess it, that you have given the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the reviling on Mount Ebal;
Cum vero introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in Terram, ad quam pergis habitandam, pones benedictionem super montem Garizim, maledictionem super montem Hebal:
30 are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite who is dwelling in the plain opposite Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?
qui sunt trans Iordanem post viam, quæ vergit ad solis occubitum in Terra Chananæi, qui habitat in campestribus contra Galgalam, quæ est iuxta vallem tendentem et intrantem procul.
31 For you are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which your God YHWH is giving to you; and you have possessed it, and dwelt in it,
Vos enim transibitis Iordanem, ut possideatis Terram, quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis, ut habeatis et possideatis illam.
32 and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you today.”
Videte ergo ut impleatis ceremonias atque iudicia, quæ ego hodie ponam in conspectu vestro.
