Deuteronomy 10

1 At that time Jehovah said to me, "Cut two tablets of stone like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.

At that time, said Yahweh unto me—Cut thee out two tables of stone like the first, and come up unto me into the mountain, —and make thee an ark of wood;

2 I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark."

that I may write, upon the tables, the words which were on the first tables which thou brakest in pieces, —then shalt thou put them in the ark.

3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two tablets of stone like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.

So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut out two tables of stone like the first, —and went up the mountain, having the two tables in my hand.

4 He wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which Jehovah spoke to you on the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and Jehovah gave them to me.

And he wrote upon the tables according to the first writing—the ten words, which Yahweh had spoken unto you in the mountain, out of the midst of the fire in the day of the convocation, —and Yahweh delivered them unto me.

5 I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are as Jehovah commanded me.

Then turned I, and came down out of the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made, —and they have remained there, as Yahweh commanded me.

6 (The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his place.

And, the sons of Israel, set forward out of Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah, —there, died Aaron and was buried there, and Eleazar his son became priest in his stead.

7 From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.

From thence, set they forward unto the Gudgodah, —and from the Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of torrents of water.

8 At that time Jehovah set apart the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.

At that time, did Yahweh separate the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, —to stand before Yahweh to wait upon him and to bless in his name (until this day).

9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; Jehovah is his inheritance, according as Jehovah your God spoke to him.)

For this cause, hath Levi neither portion nor inheritance with his brethren, —Yahweh, is his inheritance, as Yahweh thy God spake unto him.

10 I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights: and Jehovah listened to me that time also, and Jehovah would not destroy you.

But, I, stayed in the mountain according to the former days, forty days and forty nights, —and Yahweh hearkened unto me at that time also, Yahweh was not willing, to destroy thee.

11 Jehovah said to me, "Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land, which I swore to their fathers to give to them."

So then Yahweh said unto me, Up with thee—to break away onward, before the people, —that they may enter in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers, to give unto them.

12 Now, Israel, what does Jehovah your God require of you, but to fear Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

Now, therefore, O Israel, what is, Yahweh thy God, asking of thee, —but to revere Yahweh thy God to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Yahweh thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul:

13 to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?

to keep the commandments of Yahweh and his statutes, which I am commanding thee to-day, —for thy good?

14 Look, to Jehovah your God belongs heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is in it.

Lo! unto Yahweh thy God, belong the heavens even the highest heavens, —the earth, with all that is therein.

15 Only Jehovah had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their descendants after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.

Only unto thy fathers, Yahweh became attached so as to love them, —therefore made he choice of their seed after them—of you—out of all the peoples, (as at this day).

16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.

Therefore must ye circumcise the foreskin of your hearts, —and your necks, must ye stiffen no more.

17 For Jehovah your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn't respect persons, nor takes reward.

For as touching Yahweh your God, he, is God of gods, and Lord of lords; the great the mighty, and the fearful GOD, who respecteth not persons, nor accepteth a bribe;

18 He does execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loves the foreigner, in giving him food and clothing.

executing the vindication of the orphan and the widow, —and loving a sojourner, giving him food and raiment.

19 Therefore love the foreigner; for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

Therefore shall ye love the sojourner, —for sojourners, became ye in the land of Egypt.

20 You shall fear Jehovah your God; you shall serve him; and you shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.

Yahweh thy God, shalt thou revere, Him, shalt thou serve, —And unto him, shalt thou cleave, And in his name, shalt thou swear.

21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things, which your eyes have seen.

He, is thy song of praise, And, he, thy God, —who hath done with thee these great and fearful things, which thine own eyes have seen.

22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now Jehovah your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.

As seventy souls, went thy fathers down to Egypt, —and, now, Yahweh thy God hath made thee like the stars of the heavens for multitude.
