Δευτερονόμιον 6

1 καὶ αὗται αἱ ἐντολαὶ καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν διδάξαι ὑμᾶς ποιεῖν οὕτως ἐν τῇ γῇ εἰς ἣν ὑμεῖς εἰσπορεύεσθε ἐκεῖ κληρονομῆσαι αὐτήν

Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which Yhwh your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:

2 ἵνα φοβῆσθε κύριον τὸν θεὸν ὑμῶν φυλάσσεσθαι πάντα τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ὅσας ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαί σοι σήμερον σὺ καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν υἱῶν σου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς σου ἵνα μακροημερεύσητε

That thou mightest fear Yhwh thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.

3 καὶ ἄκουσον Ισραηλ καὶ φύλαξαι ποιεῖν ὅπως εὖ σοι ᾖ καὶ ἵνα πληθυνθῆτε σφόδρα καθάπερ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων σου δοῦναί σοι γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι

Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as Yhwh God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.

4 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο κύριος τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐξελθόντων αὐτῶν ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἄκουε Ισραηλ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν κύριος εἷς ἐστιν

Hear, O Israel: Yhwh our God is one Yhwh:

5 καὶ ἀγαπήσεις κύριον τὸν θεόν σου ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς δυνάμεώς σου

And thou shalt love Yhwh thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

6 καὶ ἔσται τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ὅσα ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαί σοι σήμερον ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου καὶ ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ σου

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

7 καὶ προβιβάσεις αὐτὰ τοὺς υἱούς σου καὶ λαλήσεις ἐν αὐτοῖς καθήμενος ἐν οἴκῳ καὶ πορευόμενος ἐν ὁδῷ καὶ κοιταζόμενος καὶ διανιστάμενος

And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

8 καὶ ἀφάψεις αὐτὰ εἰς σημεῖον ἐπὶ τῆς χειρός σου καὶ ἔσται ἀσάλευτον πρὸ ὀφθαλμῶν σου

And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.

9 καὶ γράψετε αὐτὰ ἐπὶ τὰς φλιὰς τῶν οἰκιῶν ὑμῶν καὶ τῶν πυλῶν ὑμῶν

And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

10 καὶ ἔσται ὅταν εἰσαγάγῃ σε κύριος ὁ θεός σου εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ὤμοσεν τοῖς πατράσιν σου τῷ Αβρααμ καὶ Ισαακ καὶ Ιακωβ δοῦναί σοι πόλεις μεγάλας καὶ καλάς ἃς οὐκ ᾠκοδόμησας

And it shall be, when Yhwh thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,

11 οἰκίας πλήρεις πάντων ἀγαθῶν ἃς οὐκ ἐνέπλησας λάκκους λελατομημένους οὓς οὐκ ἐξελατόμησας ἀμπελῶνας καὶ ἐλαιῶνας οὓς οὐ κατεφύτευσας καὶ φαγὼν καὶ ἐμπλησθεὶς

And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;

12 πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μὴ ἐπιλάθῃ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τοῦ ἐξαγαγόντος σε ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἐξ οἴκου δουλείας

Then beware lest thou forget Yhwh, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

13 κύριον τὸν θεόν σου φοβηθήσῃ καὶ αὐτῷ λατρεύσεις καὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν κολληθήσῃ καὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ ὀμῇ

Thou shalt fear Yhwh thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.

14 οὐ πορεύσεσθε ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων ἀπὸ τῶν θεῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν τῶν περικύκλῳ ὑμῶν

Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you;

15 ὅτι θεὸς ζηλωτὴς κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐν σοί μὴ ὀργισθεὶς θυμωθῇ κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἐν σοὶ καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσῃ σε ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς

( For Yhwh thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of Yhwh thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.

16 οὐκ ἐκπειράσεις κύριον τὸν θεόν σου ὃν τρόπον ἐξεπειράσασθε ἐν τῷ Πειρασμῷ

Ye shall not tempt Yhwh your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.

17 φυλάσσων φυλάξῃ τὰς ἐντολὰς κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου τὰ μαρτύρια καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα ὅσα ἐνετείλατό σοι

Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of Yhwh your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.

18 καὶ ποιήσεις τὸ ἀρεστὸν καὶ τὸ καλὸν ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν ἵνα εὖ σοι γένηται καὶ εἰσέλθῃς καὶ κληρονομήσῃς τὴν γῆν τὴν ἀγαθήν ἣν ὤμοσεν κύριος τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν

And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of Yhwh: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which Yhwh sware unto thy fathers,

19 ἐκδιῶξαι πάντας τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου πρὸ προσώπου σου καθὰ ἐλάλησεν

To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as Yhwh hath spoken.

20 καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἐρωτήσῃ σε ὁ υἱός σου αὔριον λέγων τί ἐστιν τὰ μαρτύρια καὶ τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἡμῖν

And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Yhwh our God hath commanded you?

21 καὶ ἐρεῖς τῷ υἱῷ σου οἰκέται ἦμεν τῷ Φαραω ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ ἐξήγαγεν ἡμᾶς κύριος ἐκεῖθεν ἐν χειρὶ κραταιᾷ καὶ ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ

Then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt; And Yhwh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand:

22 καὶ ἔδωκεν κύριος σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα μεγάλα καὶ πονηρὰ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ ἐν Φαραω καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐνώπιον ἡμῶν

And Yhwh shewed signs and wonders, great and sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes:

23 καὶ ἡμᾶς ἐξήγαγεν ἐκεῖθεν ἵνα εἰσαγάγῃ ἡμᾶς δοῦναι ἡμῖν τὴν γῆν ταύτην ἣν ὤμοσεν δοῦναι τοῖς πατράσιν ἡμῶν

And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.

24 καὶ ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν κύριος ποιεῖν πάντα τὰ δικαιώματα ταῦτα φοβεῖσθαι κύριον τὸν θεὸν ἡμῶν ἵνα εὖ ᾖ ἡμῖν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἵνα ζῶμεν ὥσπερ καὶ σήμερον

And Yhwh commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Yhwh our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

25 καὶ ἐλεημοσύνη ἔσται ἡμῖν ἐὰν φυλασσώμεθα ποιεῖν πάσας τὰς ἐντολὰς ταύτας ἐναντίον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν καθὰ ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν κύριος

And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before Yhwh our God, as he hath commanded us.
