Deuteronomy 6
1 “These are the commandments and rules and regulations that Yahweh our God commanded me to teach to you. He wants you to obey them in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
Estes, pois são os mandamentos, estatutos, e regulamentos que o SENHOR vosso Deus mandou que vos ensinasse, para que os ponhais por obra na terra à qual passais vós para possuí-la:
2 He wants you to revere him, and he wants you and your descendants to always obey all these rules and regulations that I am giving to you, in order that you may live for a long time.
Para que temas ao SENHOR teu Deus, guardando todos os seus estatutos e seus mandamentos que eu te mando, tu, e teu filho, e o filho de teu filho, todos os dias de tua vida, e que teus dias sejam prolongados.
3 So, you Israeli people, listen to them carefully and obey them. If you do that, things will go well with you, and you will become a nation with a very large population when you are living in that very fertile [IDM] land. That is what Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], promised [would happen].
Ouve, pois, ó Israel, e cuida de praticá-los, para que te vá bem, e sejais multiplicados, como te disse o SENHOR o Deus de teus pais, na terra que destila leite e mel.
4 “You Israeli people, listen! Only Yahweh is our God.
Ouve, Israel: o SENHOR nosso Deus, o SENHOR um é:
5 You must love him with all your inner being and with all that you feel and with all that you do.
E Amarás ao SENHOR teu Deus de todo teu coração, e de toda tua alma, e com todo tua poder.
6 Never forget [IDM] these commands that I am giving to you today.
E estas palavras que eu te mando hoje, estarão sobre teu coração:
7 Teach them to your children again and again. Talk about them [all the time]: When you are in your houses and when you are walking outside; talk about them when you are lying down and when you are doing things.
E as repetirás a teus filhos, e falarás delas estando em tua casa, e andando pelo caminho, e ao deitar-te, e quando te levantes:
8 [Write them on tiny scrolls and] fasten them to your arms/wrists, and write them on bands that you fasten to your foreheads [to help you to remember them].
E hás de atá-las por sinal em tua mão, e estarão por frontais entre teus olhos:
9 Write them on the doorposts and on the gates of your houses.
E as escreverás nos umbrais de tua casa, e em tuas entradas.
10 “Yahweh our God vowed to your ancestors Abraham and Isaac and Jacob that he will give you a land that already has in it large and prosperous cities that you did not build.
E será, quando o SENHOR teu Deus te houver introduzido na terra que jurou a teus pais Abraão, Isaque, e Jacó, que te daria; em cidades grandes e boas que tu não edificaste,
11 He said that the houses in those cities will already be full of many good things that [others put there]; you did not put them there. There will be wells that others have dug. There will be vineyards and olive trees that others planted. So when Yahweh brings you into that land, and you have all that you want to eat,
E casas cheias de todo ainda que tu não encheste, e cisternas cavadas, que tu não cavaste, vinhas e olivais que não plantaste: logo que comeres e te fartares,
12 be sure that you do not forget Yahweh who rescued you from being slaves [in Egypt and gave all these things to you].
Guarda-te que não te esqueças do SENHOR, que te tirou da terra do Egito, de casa de servos.
13 “You must revere Yahweh our God, and you must serve only him and say that he should [MTY] punish you if you do not do what you have promised.
Ao SENHOR teu Deus temerás, e a ele servirás, e por seu nome jurarás.
14 You must not worship any other gods, the gods that the people-groups who will live near you worship.
Não andareis após deuses alheios, dos deuses dos povos que estão em vossos entornos:
15 Yahweh our God, who lives among you, (will not accept/will punish) people who worship anyone or anything else. So if you worship any other god, Yahweh will be very angry with you, and he will get rid of you completely.
Porque o Deus zeloso, o SENHOR teu Deus, em meio de ti está; para que não se inflame o furor do SENHOR teu Deus contra ti, e te destrua de sobre a face da terra.
16 Do not do sinful things to find out if you can do them without Yahweh our God punishing you, like your ancestors did at Massah.
Não tentareis ao SENHOR vosso Deus, como o tentastes em Massá.
17 Be sure that you always obey all the laws, the commandments, the rules, and the regulations that he has given to you.
Guardai cuidadosamente os mandamentos do SENHOR vosso Deus, e seus testemunhos, e seus estatutos, que te mandou.
18 Do what Yahweh says is right and good. If you do that, things will go well with you. You will be able to enter and occupy the good/fertile land that Yahweh vowed to give to our ancestors.
E farás o correto e bom aos olhos do SENHOR, para que te vá bem, e entres e possuas a boa terra que o SENHOR jurou a teus pais;
19 He will do that by expelling your enemies from that land, just like he promised to do.
Para que ele expulse a todos os seus inimigos de diante de ti, como o SENHOR disse.
20 “In the future, when your children ask you, ‘Why did Yahweh our God command us to obey all these rules and regulations?’
Quando amanhã te perguntar teu filho, dizendo: Que significam os testemunhos, e estatutos, e regulamentos, que o SENHOR nosso Deus vos mandou?
21 tell them, ‘Our ancestors were slaves of the king in Egypt, but Yahweh brought them out of Egypt by his great power [MTY].
Então dirás a teu filho: Nós éramos servos de Faraó no Egito, e o SENHOR tirou do Egito com mão forte;
22 They saw him do many kinds of miracles [DOU] and do terrifying things to the people of Egypt and to the king and his officials.
E deu o SENHOR sinais e milagres grandes e nocivos no Egito, sobre Faraó e sobre toda sua casa, diante de nossos olhos;
23 He rescued our ancestors from Egypt and brought them here to give them this land, just like he vowed that he would do.
E tirou-nos dali, para trazer-nos e dar-nos a terra que jurou a nossos pais;
24 And he commanded us to obey all these laws and to revere him, for our own good and in order that he would protect our nation and enable us to prosper, as he is doing now.
E mandou-nos o SENHOR que executássemos todos estes estatutos, e que temamos ao SENHOR nosso Deus, para que nos vá bem todos os dias, e para que nos dê vida, como hoje.
25 Yahweh our God will (approve of us/consider us to be righteous) if we carefully obey everything that he has commanded us to do.’”
E teremos justiça quando cuidarmos de pôr por obra todos estes mandamentos diante do SENHOR nosso Deus, como ele nos mandou.
