< Deuteronomy 10 >

1 “Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Cut two stone tablets like the first ones. And make a wooden chest to put them in. Then [bring the tablets] up to me on this mountain.
EN aquel tiempo Jehová me dijo: Lábrate dos tablas de piedra como las primeras, y sube á mí al monte, y hazte un arca de madera:
2 I will write on those tablets the same words that I wrote on the first tablets, the ones that you broke. Then you can put them in the chest.’
Y escribiré en aquellas tablas las palabras que estaban en las tablas primeras que quebraste; y las pondrás en el arca.
3 “So I made a chest. I used wood from an acacia tree to make it. Then I cut two tablets of stone like the first ones, and I went up the mountain carrying the tablets.
E hice un arca de madera de Sittim, y labré dos tablas de piedra como las primeras, y subí al monte con las dos tablas en mi mano.
4 There Yahweh wrote on the tablets the [same] Ten Commandments [that he had written on the first tablet]. They are the commandments that he told to your ancestors from the middle of the fire on the mountain, when they were gathered [at the bottom of the mountain]. Then Yahweh gave the tablets to me,
Y escribió en las tablas conforme á la primera escritura, las diez palabras que Jehová os había hablado en el monte de en medio del fuego, el día de la asamblea; y diómelas Jehová.
5 and I turned and went down the mountain. Then, just as he had commanded, I put them in the chest that I had made. And they are still there.”
Y volví y descendí del monte, y puse las tablas en el arca que había hecho; y allí están, como Jehová me mandó.
6 (Then, from the wells that belonged to the people of Jaakan, the Israeli people traveled to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and his son Eleazar took his place and became the Supreme Priest.
(Después partieron los hijos de Israel de Beerot-bene-jacaam á Moserá: allí murió Aarón, y allí fué sepultado; y en lugar suyo tuvo el sacerdocio su hijo Eleazar.
7 From there, the Israelis traveled to Gudgodah, and from there to Jotbathah, which was a place that had many streams.
De allí partieron á Gudgod, y de Gudgod á Jotbath, tierra de arroyos de aguas.
8 At that time, Yahweh (set apart/appointed) the tribe of Levi to carry the chest that contained [the tablets on which were written] the Ten Commandments, and to stand in Yahweh’s presence [in the sacred tent], to offer sacrifices, and to pray for Yahweh to bless [the people. They are still doing those things] at the present time.
En aquel tiempo apartó Jehová la tribu de Leví, para que llevase el arca del pacto de Jehová, para que estuviese delante de Jehová para servirle, y para bendecir en su nombre, hasta hoy.
9 That is the reason that the tribe of Levi did not receive any land like the other tribes did. What they received was the work/privilege of being Yahweh’s [priests], which is what he said that they should do.)
Por lo cual Leví no tuvo parte ni heredad con sus hermanos: Jehová es su heredad, como Jehová tu Dios le dijo.)
10 “I stayed on the mountain 40 days and nights, just like I did the first time. [I prayed to] Yahweh, and he (answered my prayers/did what I requested) again and said that he would not destroy your ancestors.
Y yo estuve en el monte como los primeros días, cuarenta días y cuarenta noches; y Jehová me oyó también esta vez, y no quiso Jehová destruirte.
11 Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Continue your journey, going in front of the people, to occupy the land that I vowed your ancestors that I would give to you.’”
Y díjome Jehová: Levántate, anda, para que partas delante del pueblo, para que entren y posean la tierra que juré á sus padres les había de dar.
12 “Now, you Israeli people, [I will tell you] [RHQ] what Yahweh our God requires/demands that you do. He requires you to revere him, to conduct your lives as he wants you to, to love him, and to serve him wholeheartedly [DOU],
Ahora pues, Israel, ¿qué pide Jehová tu Dios de ti, sino que temas á Jehová tu Dios, que andes en todos sus caminos, y que lo ames, y sirvas á Jehová tu Dios con todo tu corazón, y con toda tu alma;
13 and to obey all of his commandments [DOU] which I am giving to you today for your benefit.
Que guardes los mandamientos de Jehová y sus estatutos, que yo te prescribo hoy, para que hayas bien?
14 “Do not forget that Yahweh our God owns even the sky and everything that is in it. He also owns the earth and everything that is on it.
He aquí, de Jehová tu Dios son los cielos, y los cielos de los cielos: la tierra, y todas las cosas que hay en ella.
15 But [in spite of owning all those things], Yahweh loved your ancestors, and from all the people-groups [on the earth] he chose us, their descendants, and we are still his people.
Solamente de tus padres se agradó Jehová para amarlos, y escogió su simiente después de ellos, á vosotros, de entre todos los pueblos, como en este día.
16 So you must stop sinning [MET] and stop being stubborn [IDM]!
Circuncidad pues el prepucio de vuestro corazón, y no endurezcáis más vuestra cerviz.
17 Yahweh our God is greater than all gods, and he is greater than all rulers. He is very powerful [DOU] and awesome. He (is impartial/does not do things that favor one (group/person) more than others), and he does not accept bribes.
Porque Jehová vuestro Dios es Dios de dioses, y Señor de señores, Dios grande, poderoso, y terrible, que no acepta persona, ni toma cohecho;
18 He makes sure that orphans and widows are treated fairly. He loves even (foreigners/people from other countries) who live among us Israeli people, and he gives them food and clothes.
Que hace justicia al huérfano y á la viuda; que ama también al extranjero dándole pan y vestido.
19 So you must love those foreigners too, because you were once foreigners when you were living in Egypt.
Amaréis pues al extranjero: porque extranjeros fuisteis vosotros en tierra de Egipto.
20 Revere Yahweh our God and worship only him. (Be faithful to/Have a close relationship with) him, and say that he should punish you if you do not do what you promise.
A Jehová tu Dios temerás, á él servirás, á él te allegarás, y por su nombre jurarás.
21 He is the one whom you must praise. He is our God, and we have seen the great and amazing things that he has done for us.
El es tu alabanza, y él es tu Dios, que ha hecho contigo estas grandes y terribles cosas que tus ojos han visto.
22 When our ancestors, [Jacob and his family], went down to Egypt, there were only seventy of them. But now Yahweh our God has caused us to be as numerous as the stars in the sky.”
Con setenta almas descendieron tus padres á Egipto; y ahora Jehová te ha hecho como las estrellas del cielo en multitud.
