Deuteronomy 5
1 Moses/I summoned all the people of Israel and said to them, “You Israeli people, listen to all the rules and regulations that I am giving to you today. Learn them and be sure to obey them.
Moisés convocó a todo Israel y le dijo: “Oye, Israel, las leyes y los preceptos que hoy intimo a vuestros oídos, aprendedlos y guardadlos para ponerlos en práctica.
2 When we were at Sinai [Mountain], Yahweh our God made an agreement with us.
Yahvé, nuestro Dios, hizo con nosotros alianza en el Horeb.
3 But this agreement was not only for our ancestors. He made it also for us who are alive now.
No con nuestros padres hizo Yahvé esta alianza, sino con nosotros, que hoy todos estamos aquí y todavía vivimos.
4 Yahweh spoke with us face-to-face on that mountain, from the middle of the fire.
Cara a cara habló Yahvé con vosotros en el monte, desde en medio del fuego,
5 On that day, I stood between your ancestors and Yahweh to tell them what he said, because they were afraid of the fire, and they did not climb up the mountain. This is what Yahweh said:
—yo estaba entonces entre Yahvé y vosotros, para comunicaros la palabra de Yahvé; porque teníais miedo del fuego y no subisteis al monte— Dijo así:
6 ‘I am Yahweh your God, the one you [worship]. I am the one who brought you out of the land of Egypt. I am the one who freed you from being slaves [there].
‘Yo soy Yahvé, tu Dios, que te saqué de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de la servidumbre.
7 [You must worship only] me; you must not worship any other god.
No tendrás otros dioses delante de Mí.
8 You must not carve/make for yourselves any idol that represents anything in the sky or anything that is on the ground or anything that swims in the water.
No te harás estatua o imagen alguna de cuanto hay arriba en el cielo, ni de cuanto hay abajo en la tierra, ni de lo que se halla en las aguas debajo de la tierra;
9 You must not bow down to any idol and worship it, because I am Yahweh God, and I (am very jealous/want you to worship me only). I punish those who sin and hate me. I punish not only them, but I will punish (their descendants, down to the third and fourth generation/their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren).
no las adorarás ni les darás culto, porque Yo, Yahvé, tu Dios, soy un Dios celoso, que castigo la iniquidad de los padres en los hijos, hasta la tercera y cuarta generación de los que me aborrecen,
10 But I will steadfastly love (thousands of generations/all the descendants) of those who love me and obey my commandments (OR, I will love for thousands of generations).
y que uso de misericordia hasta mil generaciones de los que me aman y guardan mis mandamientos.
11 Do not use/speak my name carelessly (OR, for wrong/evil purposes), because I am Yahweh God, the one whom you [should worship], and I will certainly punish those who use/speak my name for wrong/evil purposes [LIT].
No tomarás en vano el nombre de Yahvé, tu Dios, porque Yahvé no dejará impune al que tomare su nombre en vano.
12 Do not forget that the seventh day [of every week] is mine. Dedicate those days to me just like I, Yahweh your God, am commanding you.
Guarda el día de sábado para santificarlo, como te lo ha mandado Yahvé, tu Dios.
13 There are six days each week for you to do all your work,
Seis días trabajarás, y harás todo tu trabajo;
14 but the seventh day is a rest day, a day dedicated to me, Yahweh your God. On that day you must not do any work. You and your sons and daughters and your male and female slaves must not work. You must not even force your livestock to work, and you must not tell foreigners to work, those who are living in your country. You must allow your slaves to rest on that day just like you do.
mas el día séptimo es día de descanso consagrado a Yahvé, tu Dios, no hagas trabajo alguno, ni tú, ni tu hijo, ni tu hija, ni tu siervo, ni tu sierva, ni tu buey, ni tu asno, ni ninguna bestia tuya, ni el extranjero que mora dentro de tus puertas para que descanse tu siervo y tu sierva como tú.
15 Do not forget that you were slaves in Egypt, and that I, Yahweh your God, brought you out from there by my very great power. [DOU, MTY] That is the reason that I am commanding that [all of] you must rest on the seventh/Sabbath day [each week].
Acuérdate de que fuiste siervo en el país de Egipto y que Yahvé, tu Dios, te sacó de allí con mano fuerte y con brazo extendido; por eso Yahvé, tu Dios, te ha mandado guardar el día de sábado.
16 Honor/Respect your fathers and your mothers, just like I, Yahweh your God, am commanding you, in order that you may live a long time in the land that I, Yahweh your God, will give you, and in order that things will go well for you there.
Honra a tu padre y a tu madre, como te ha mandado Yahvé, tu Dios, para que vivas largo tiempo y te vaya bien sobre la tierra que Yahvé, tu Dios, te va a dar.
17 Do not murder anyone.
No matarás.
18 Do not (commit adultery/have sex with anyone other than your spouse).
No cometerás adulterio.
19 Do not steal anything.
No hurtarás.
20 Do not tell lies about anyone [when you are speaking in a court].
No dirás falso testimonio contra tu prójimo.
21 Do not (covet/desire to have) someone else’s wife, someone else’s house, someone else’s fields, someone else’s male slave or female slave, someone else’s livestock, someone else’s donkeys, or anything else that another person owns.’
No codiciarás la mujer de tu prójimo, ni desearás la casa de tu prójimo, ni su campo, ni su siervo, ni su sierva, ni su buey, ni su asno, ni cosa alguna que sea de tu prójimo.’
22 Those are the commandments that Yahweh spoke to your ancestors. When they were gathered there at [the bottom of] the mountain, he spoke with a very loud voice from the middle of the fire, and there were dark clouds surrounding the mountain. He spoke only those [ten] commandments, no more. Then he wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me.
Estas son las palabras que Yahvé, con poderosa voz, dirigió a toda vuestra asamblea en el monte, desde el fuego, la nube y las tinieblas; y no añadió más. Las escribió sobre dos tablas de piedra, las cuales Él me entregó.
23 After your ancestors heard [Yahweh’s] voice when he spoke to them out of the darkness, while there was a big fire burning on the mountain, their leaders and elders came to me,
Mas vosotros, cuando oísteis la voz de en medio de las tinieblas, mientras el monte estaba en llamas, os acercasteis a mí, todos los jefes de las tribus y vuestros ancianos,
24 and [one of] them said, ‘Listen to us! Yahweh our God showed us that he is very great and glorious when we heard him speak [MTY] from the fire. Today we have realized that it is possible for us humans to continue to live even though God has spoken to us.
y me dijisteis: ‘Mira, Yahvé, nuestro Dios, nos ha manifestado su gloria y su grandeza, y hemos oído su voz de en medio del fuego. Hoy hemos visto a Dios hablar con el hombre, sin que este haya perdido la vida.
25 But we are afraid that we will die [RHQ] if we hear Yahweh our God speak [MTY] to us again; his terrible fire will destroy/kill us.
Ahora, pues, ¿por qué hemos de morir devorados por este gran fuego? Pues si seguimos oyendo la voz de Yahvé, nuestro Dios, moriremos.
26 (Who has/Certainly no human has) remained alive after hearing the all-powerful God speak [MTY] to them from a fire.
Porque ¿quién de todos los hombres ha oído la voz de Dios vivo hablando de en medio del fuego, como nosotros, y no ha perdido la vida?
27 [So Moses], you go [up the mountain] and listen to everything that Yahweh our God will say. Then [come back and] tell us everything that he has said, and we will listen to what he has said and obey it.’
Acércate tú, y oye todo lo que dijere Yahvé, nuestro Dios; y tú nos comunicarás todo cuanto Yahvé, nuestro Dios, te indique, y nosotros lo oiremos y cumpliremos.’
28 Yahweh heard your leaders say that, so [when I went back up the mountain], Yahweh said to me, ‘I have heard what your leaders have said, and what they have said is right/correct.
Oyó Yahvé la voz de vuestras palabras cuando me hablabais, y dijo Yahvé: ‘He oído el son de las palabras que este pueblo te ha dicho; está bien todo lo que dicen.
29 I surely wish that they would always think like that and revere me and obey all my commandments, in order that things may go well for them and for their descendants forever.
¡Ojalá que siempre tengan este sentir, para que me teman y guarden en todo tiempo todos mis mandamientos, a fin de que sean felices ellos y sus hijos para siempre!
30 So go [down] and tell them to return to their tents.
Anda y diles: Retiraos a vuestras tiendas.
31 But [then] you [come back up here and] stand near me, and I will give to you all the rules and regulations that I [want them to obey]. Then you can teach them to the people, in order that they will obey them when they are in the land that I am giving to them.’
Pero tú quédate aquí conmigo, y Yo te diré todos los mandamientos, leyes y preceptos que les has de enseñar, para que los pongan por obra en la tierra que les voy a dar en herencia.’
32 [So I went back down to the people, and I said to them], ‘Be sure that you do everything that Yahweh our God has commanded us to do. Do not disobey any of his laws.
Poned, pues, cuidado en cumplir lo que Yahvé, vuestro Dios, os ha mandado. No declinéis ni a la diestra ni a la izquierda.
33 Conduct your lives as Yahweh our God has commanded us to do, in order that you may live a long time, and in order that things will go well for you [when you are living] in the land that you will occupy.’”
Seguid en todo el camino que Yahvé, vuestro Dios, os ha mandado, para que viváis y prosperéis y tengáis larga vida en la tierra que vais a heredar.
