Deuteronomy 29
1 These are the words of the covenant which Jehovah commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
这是耶和华在摩押地吩咐摩西与以色列人立约的话，是在他和他们于何烈山所立的约之外。
2 Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, You have seen all that Jehovah did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;
摩西召了以色列众人来，对他们说：“耶和华在埃及地，在你们眼前向法老和他众臣仆，并他全地所行的一切事，你们都看见了，
3 the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders:
就是你亲眼看见的大试验和神迹，并那些大奇事。
4 but Jehovah has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.
但耶和华到今日没有使你们心能明白，眼能看见，耳能听见。
5 I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not worn out on you, and your shoes have not worn out on your feet.
我领你们在旷野四十年，你们身上的衣服并没有穿破，脚上的鞋也没有穿坏。
6 You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink; that you may know that I am Jehovah your God.
你们没有吃饼，也没有喝清酒浓酒。这要使你们知道，耶和华是你们的 神。
7 When you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, came out against us to battle, and we struck them:
你们来到这地方，希实本王西宏、巴珊王噩都出来与我们交战，我们就击杀了他们，
8 and we took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of the Manassites.
取了他们的地给吕便支派、迦得支派，和玛拿西半支派为业。
9 Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.
所以你们要谨守遵行这约的话，好叫你们在一切所行的事上亨通。
10 You stand this day all of you before Jehovah your God; your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,
“今日，你们的首领、族长、长老、官长、以色列的男丁，你们的妻子儿女，和营中寄居的，以及为你们劈柴挑水的人，都站在耶和华—你们的 神面前，
11 your little ones, your wives, and your foreigner who is in the midst of your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water;
12 that you may enter into the covenant of Jehovah your God, and into his oath, which Jehovah your God makes with you this day,
为要你顺从耶和华—你 神今日与你所立的约，向你所起的誓。
13 so that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may your God, as he spoke to you and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
这样，他要照他向你所应许的话，又向你列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各所起的誓，今日立你作他的子民，他作你的 神。
14 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath,
我不但与你们立这约，起这誓，
15 but with him who stands here with us this day before Jehovah our God, and also with him who is not here with us this day
凡与我们一同站在耶和华—我们 神面前的，并今日不在我们这里的人，我也与他们立这约，起这誓。
16 (for you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which you passed;
“我们曾住过埃及地，也从列国经过；这是你们知道的。
17 and you have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them);
你们也看见他们中间可憎之物，并他们木、石、金、银的偶像。
18 lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turns away this day from Jehovah our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be among you a root that bears gall and wormwood;
惟恐你们中间，或男或女，或族长或支派长，今日心里偏离耶和华—我们的 神，去事奉那些国的神；又怕你们中间有恶根生出苦菜和茵 来，
19 and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, "I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to destroy the moist with the dry."
听见这咒诅的话，心里仍是自夸说：‘我虽然行事心里顽梗，连累众人，却还是平安。’
20 God will not be willing to forgive him, but then the anger of Jehovah and his jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse that is written in this book shall rest on him, and Jehovah will blot out his name from under heaven.
耶和华必不饶恕他；耶和华的怒气与愤恨要向他发作，如烟冒出，将这书上所写的一切咒诅都加在他身上。耶和华又要从天下涂抹他的名，
21 Jehovah will set him apart to evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that is written in this book of the law.
也必照着写在律法书上、约中的一切咒诅将他从以色列众支派中分别出来，使他受祸。
22 The generation to come, your children who shall rise up after you, and the foreigner who shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses with which Jehovah has made it sick;
你们的后代，就是以后兴起来的子孙，和远方来的外人，看见这地的灾殃，并耶和华所降与这地的疾病，
23 and that the whole land of it is sulfur, salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor bears, nor any grass grows in it, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:
又看见遍地有硫磺，有盐卤，有火迹，没有耕种，没有出产，连草都不生长—好像耶和华在忿怒中所倾覆的所多玛、蛾摩拉、押玛、洗扁一样—
24 even all the nations shall say, "Why has Jehovah done thus to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?"
所看见的人，连万国人，都必问说：‘耶和华为何向此地这样行呢？这样大发烈怒是什么意思呢？’
25 Then men shall say, "Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt,
人必回答说：‘是因这地的人离弃了耶和华—他们列祖的 神，领他们出埃及地的时候与他们所立的约，
26 and went and served other gods, and worshiped them, gods that they did not know, and that he had not given to them:
去事奉敬拜素不认识的别神，是耶和华所未曾给他们安排的。
27 therefore the anger of Jehovah was kindled against this land, to bring on it all the curse that is written in this book;
所以耶和华的怒气向这地发作，将这书上所写的一切咒诅都降在这地上。
28 and Jehovah rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as at this day."
耶和华在怒气、忿怒、大恼恨中将他们从本地拔出来，扔在别的地上，像今日一样。’
29 The secret things belong to Jehovah our God; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
“隐秘的事是属耶和华—我们 神的；惟有明显的事是永远属我们和我们子孙的，好叫我们遵行这律法上的一切话。”
