< Deuteronomy 5 >
1 Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, “Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them.”
Musa mengumpulkan seluruh bangsa Israel, lalu berkata kepada mereka, "Saudara-saudara, dengarlah hukum-hukum yang saya berikan kepadamu hari ini. Pelajarilah hukum-hukum itu, dan taatilah dengan setia.
2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
Di Gunung Sinai TUHAN Allah kita membuat suatu perjanjian,
3 The LORD didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today.
bukan saja dengan leluhur kita, tetapi dengan kita semua di sini.
4 The LORD spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire,
Dari api di atas gunung itu TUHAN mau berbicara langsung dengan kamu.
5 (I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the LORD’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto the mountain) saying,
Tetapi karena kamu takut kepada api dan tidak berani mendaki gunung, maka saya pada waktu itu berdiri di antara kamu dengan TUHAN untuk menyampaikan perkataan TUHAN kepadamu. TUHAN memaklumkan,
6 “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
'Akulah TUHAN Allahmu yang membawa kamu keluar dari Mesir, tempat kamu diperbudak.
7 “You shall have no other gods before me.
Jangan menyembah ilah-ilah lain. Sembahlah Aku saja.
8 “You shall not make a carved image for yourself—any likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Jangan membuat bagi dirimu patung yang menyerupai apa saja yang ada di langit, di bumi atau di dalam air di bawah bumi.
9 You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me
Jangan menyembah patung semacam itu karena Aku TUHAN Allahmu dan tak mau disamakan dengan apa pun. Orang-orang yang membenci Aku Kuhukum sampai kepada keturunan yang ketiga dan keempat.
10 and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
Tetapi Aku menunjukkan kasih-Ku kepada beribu-ribu keturunan dari orang-orang yang mencintai Aku dan taat kepada perintah-Ku.
11 “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
Jangan menyebut nama-Ku dengan sembarangan, sebab Aku, TUHAN Allahmu, menghukum siapa saja yang menyalahgunakan nama-Ku.
12 “Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you.
Rayakanlah hari Sabat dan hormatilah sebagai hari yang suci, sebab Akulah TUHAN Allahmu yang memerintahkannya kepadamu.
13 You shall labor six days, and do all your work;
Kamu Kuberi enam hari untuk bekerja,
14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, in which you shall not do any work—neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you.
tetapi hari yang ketujuh adalah hari istirahat yang khusus untuk Aku, TUHAN Allahmu. Pada hari itu tak seorang pun boleh bekerja, baik kamu, anak-anakmu, hamba-hambamu, ternakmu atau orang asing yang tinggal di negerimu. Hamba-hambamu harus beristirahat seperti kamu sendiri.
15 You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
Ingatlah bahwa kamu dahulu diperbudak di Mesir, lalu dibebaskan oleh TUHAN Allahmu dengan kekuatan yang besar. Sebab itu kamu Kuperintahkan untuk merayakan hari Sabat.
16 “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Hormatilah dan peliharalah ayah dan ibumu; itulah perintah-Ku, TUHAN Allahmu, supaya kamu sejahtera dan panjang umur di negeri yang akan Kuberikan kepadamu.
17 “You shall not murder.
Jangan membunuh.
18 “You shall not commit adultery.
Jangan berzinah.
20 “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
Jangan memberi kesaksian palsu tentang orang lain.
21 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.”
Jangan menginginkan kepunyaan orang lain: rumahnya, tanahnya, istrinya, hamba-hambanya, ternaknya, keledainya atau apa saja yang dimilikinya.'
22 The LORD spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me.
Itulah perintah-perintah yang diberikan TUHAN kepada kamu ketika kamu berkumpul di gunung. Ketika Ia berbicara dengan suara gemuruh dari api dan awan yang tebal, Ia memberikan perintah-perintah itu, dan bukan yang lain. Lalu Ia menulisnya pada dua batu tulis dan memberikannya kepadaku."
23 When you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
"Waktu seluruh gunung menyala dan kamu mendengar suara dari kegelapan, semua pemimpin sukumu dan pemuka masyarakat datang kepada saya.
24 and you said, “Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives.
Kata mereka, 'TUHAN Allah kita telah menunjukkan kebesaran dan kemuliaan-Nya ketika kami mendengar Dia berbicara dari api. Hari ini kami telah menyaksikan bahwa memang mungkin bagi manusia untuk tetap hidup, walaupun Allah telah berbicara kepadanya.
25 Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the LORD our God’s voice any more, then we shall die.
Tetapi mengapa kami harus mempertaruhkan nyawa kami lagi? Api yang dahsyat itu akan membinasakan kami! Kami yakin bahwa kami akan mati bila mendengar TUHAN Allah berbicara lagi.
26 For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived?
Pernahkah ada manusia yang tetap hidup setelah mendengar Allah yang hidup berbicara dari api?
27 Go near, and hear all that the LORD our God shall say, and tell us all that the LORD our God tells you; and we will hear it, and do it.”
Sebab itu, pergilah Musa, dengarkan segala yang dikatakan TUHAN Allah kita, lalu sampaikanlah kepada kami apa yang dikatakan-Nya kepadamu. Kami akan mendengarkan dan taat.'
28 The LORD heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and the LORD said to me, “I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. They have well said all that they have spoken.
Mendengar itu, TUHAN berkata kepada saya, 'Aku telah mendengar apa yang dikatakan bangsa itu, dan benarlah kata mereka.
29 Oh that there were such a heart in them that they would fear me and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them and with their children forever!
Coba kalau mereka selalu berperasaan demikian! Coba kalau mereka selalu menghormati Aku dan mentaati semua perintah-Ku, sehingga mereka dan keturunan mereka sejahtera untuk selama-lamanya!
30 “Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’
Pergilah sekarang dan suruhlah bangsa itu kembali ke kemahnya masing-masing.
31 But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.”
Tetapi engkau, Musa, kembalilah dan tinggallah di sini bersama Aku; kepadamu akan Kuberikan segala hukum dan perintah-Ku. Ajarkanlah kepada mereka, supaya mereka mentaatinya di negeri yang Kuberikan kepada mereka.'
32 You shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away to the right hand or to the left.
Saudara-saudara, taatilah dengan setia segala yang diperintahkan TUHAN Allahmu kepadamu. Jangan melanggar satu pun dari perintah-perintah itu.
33 You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
Lakukanlah semua yang diperintahkan TUHAN Allahmu kepadamu supaya kamu sejahtera dan dapat menetap di negeri yang akan kamu diami."
