< Deuteronomii 11 >
1 ama itaque Dominum Deum tuum et observa praecepta eius et caerimonias iudicia atque mandata omni tempore
Therefore thou shall love Jehovah thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
2 cognoscite hodie quae ignorant filii vestri qui non viderunt disciplinam Domini Dei vestri magnalia eius et robustam manum extentumque brachium
And ye know this day, for it is not with your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,
3 signa et opera quae fecit in medio Aegypti Pharaoni regi et universae terrae eius
and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land,
4 omnique exercitui Aegyptiorum et equis ac curribus quomodo operuerint eos aquae Rubri maris cum vos persequerentur et deleverit eos Dominus usque in praesentem diem
and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots, how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how Jehovah has destroyed them to this day,
5 vobisque quae fecerit in solitudine donec veniretis ad hunc locum
and what he did to you in the wilderness, until ye came to this place,
6 et Dathan atque Abiram filiis Heliab qui fuit filius Ruben quos aperto ore suo terra absorbuit cum domibus et tabernaculis et universa substantia eorum quam habebant in medio Israhelis
and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel,
7 oculi vestri viderunt omnia opera Domini magna quae fecit
but your eyes have seen all the great work of Jehovah which he did.
8 ut custodiatis universa mandata illius quae ego hodie praecipio vobis et possitis introire et possidere terram ad quam ingredimini
Therefore ye shall keep all the commandment which I command thee this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where ye go over to possess it,
9 multoque in ea vivatis tempore quam sub iuramento pollicitus est Dominus patribus vestris et semini eorum lacte et melle manantem
and that ye may prolong your days in the land, which Jehovah swore to your fathers to give to them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 terra enim ad quam ingredieris possidendam non est sicut terra Aegypti de qua existi ubi iacto semine in hortorum morem aquae ducuntur inriguae
For the land, where thou go in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from where ye came out, where thou sowed thy seed, and watered it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs,
11 sed montuosa est et campestris de caelo expectans pluvias
but the land, where ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water from the rain of heaven,
12 quam Dominus Deus tuus semper invisit et oculi illius in ea sunt a principio anni usque ad finem eius
a land which Jehovah thy God cares for. The eyes of Jehovah thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
13 si ergo oboedieritis mandatis meis quae hodie praecipio vobis ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum et serviatis ei in toto corde vestro et in tota anima vestra
And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently to my commandments which I command you this day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 dabo pluviam terrae vestrae temporivam et serotinam ut colligatis frumentum et vinum et oleum
that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou may gather in thy grain, and thy new wine, and thine oil.
15 faenum ex agris ad pascenda iumenta et ut ipsi comedatis ac saturemini
And I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, and thou shall eat and be full.
16 cavete ne forte decipiatur cor vestrum et recedatis a Domino serviatisque diis alienis et adoretis eos
Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them,
17 iratusque Dominus claudat caelum et pluviae non descendant nec terra det germen suum pereatisque velociter de terra optima quam Dominus daturus est vobis
and the anger of Jehovah be kindled against you, and he shut up the heavens, so that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit, and ye perish quickly from off the good land which Jehovah gives you.
18 ponite haec verba mea in cordibus et in animis vestris et suspendite ea pro signo in manibus et inter vestros oculos conlocate
Therefore ye shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul. And ye shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
19 docete filios vestros ut illa meditentur quando sederis in domo tua et ambulaveris in via et accubueris atque surrexeris
And ye shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when thou sit in thy house, and when thou walk by the way, and when thou lie down, and when thou rise up.
20 scribes ea super postes et ianuas domus tuae
And thou shall write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates,
21 ut multiplicentur dies tui et filiorum tuorum in terra quam iuravit Dominus patribus tuis ut daret eis quamdiu caelum inminet terrae
that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your sons, in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
22 si enim custodieritis mandata quae ego praecipio vobis et feceritis ea ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum et ambuletis in omnibus viis eius adherentes ei
For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him,
23 disperdet Dominus omnes gentes istas ante faciem vestram et possidebitis eas quae maiores et fortiores vobis sunt
then will Jehovah drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
24 omnis locus quem calcaverit pes vester vester erit a deserto et Libano a flumine magno Eufraten usque ad mare occidentale erunt termini vestri
Every place on which the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours, from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the hinder sea shall be your border.
25 nullus stabit contra vos terrorem vestrum et formidinem dabit Dominus Deus vester super omnem terram quam calcaturi estis sicut locutus est vobis
There shall no man be able to stand before you. Jehovah your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he has spoken to you.
26 en propono in conspectu vestro hodie benedictionem et maledictionem
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:
27 benedictionem si oboedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri quae ego praecipio vobis
the blessing, if ye shall hearken to the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day,
28 maledictionem si non audieritis mandata Domini Dei vestri sed recesseritis de via quam ego nunc ostendo vobis et ambulaveritis post deos alienos quos ignoratis
and the curse, if ye shall not hearken to the commandments of Jehovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
29 cum introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in terram ad quam pergis habitandam pones benedictionem super montem Garizim maledictionem super montem Hebal
And it shall come to pass, when Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land where thou go to possess it, that thou shall set the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
30 qui sunt trans Iordanem post viam quae vergit ad solis occubitum in terra Chananei qui habitat in campestribus contra Galgalam quae est iuxta vallem tendentem et intrantem procul
Are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
31 vos enim transibitis Iordanem ut possideatis terram quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis et habeatis ac possideatis illam
For ye are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God gives you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell in it.
32 videte ergo ut impleatis caerimonias atque iudicia quae ego hodie ponam in conspectu vestro
And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you this day.
