Deuteronomii 26
1 cumque intraveris terram quam Dominus Deus tuus tibi daturus est possidendam et obtinueris eam atque habitaveris in illa
And it shall be, when you are come in unto the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell therein;
2 tolles de cunctis frugibus primitias et pones in cartallo pergesque ad locum quem Dominus Deus tuus elegerit ut ibi invocetur nomen eius
That you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which you shall bring of your land that the LORD your God gives you, and shall put it in a basket, and shall go unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose to place his name there.
3 accedesque ad sacerdotem qui fuerit in diebus illis et dices ad eum profiteor hodie coram Domino Deo tuo quod ingressus sim terram pro qua iuravit patribus nostris ut daret eam nobis
And you shall go unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto the LORD your God, that I am come unto the country which the LORD swore unto our fathers in order to give us.
4 suscipiensque sacerdos cartallum de manu eius ponet ante altare Domini Dei tui
And the priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD your God.
5 et loqueris in conspectu Domini Dei tui Syrus persequebatur patrem meum qui descendit in Aegyptum et ibi peregrinatus est in paucissimo numero crevitque in gentem magnam et robustam et infinitae multitudinis
And you shall speak and say before the LORD your God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:
6 adflixeruntque nos Aegyptii et persecuti sunt inponentes onera gravissima
And the Egyptians evil pleaded us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
7 et clamavimus ad Dominum Deum patrum nostrorum qui exaudivit nos et respexit humilitatem nostram et laborem atque angustias
And when we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:
8 et eduxit nos de Aegypto in manu forti et brachio extento in ingenti pavore in signis atque portentis
And the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
9 et introduxit ad locum istum et tradidit nobis terram lacte et melle manantem
And he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, even a land that flows with milk and honey.
10 et idcirco nunc offero primitias frugum terrae quam dedit Dominus mihi et dimittes eas in conspectu Domini Dei tui adorato Domino Deo tuo
And now, behold, I have brought the first-fruits of the land, which you, O LORD, have given me. And you shall set it before the LORD your God, and worship before the LORD your God:
11 et epulaberis in omnibus bonis quae Dominus Deus tuus dederit tibi et domui tuae tu et Levites et advena qui tecum est
And you shall rejoice in every good thing which the LORD your God has given unto you, and unto your house, you, and the Levite, and the stranger that is among you.
12 quando conpleveris decimam cunctarum frugum tuarum anno decimarum tertio dabis Levitae et advenae et pupillo et viduae ut comedant intra portas tuas et saturentur
When you have made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled;
13 loquerisque in conspectu Domini Dei tui abstuli quod sanctificatum est de domo mea et dedi illud Levitae et advenae pupillo et viduae sicut iussisti mihi non praeterivi mandata tua nec sum oblitus imperii
Then you shall say before the LORD your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandments which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed your commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
14 non comedi ex eis in luctu meo nec separavi ea in qualibet inmunditia nec expendi ex his quicquam in re funebri oboedivi voci Domini Dei mei et feci omnia sicut praecepisti mihi
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away ought thereof for any unclean use, nor given ought thereof for the dead: but I have hearkened to the voice of the LORD my God, and have done according to all that you have commanded me.
15 respice de sanctuario tuo de excelso caelorum habitaculo et benedic populo tuo Israhel et terrae quam dedisti nobis sicut iurasti patribus nostris terrae lacte et melle mananti
Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the land which you have given us, as you sware unto our fathers, a land that flows with milk and honey.
16 hodie Dominus Deus tuus praecepit tibi ut facias mandata haec atque iudicia et custodias et impleas ex toto corde tuo et ex tota anima tua
This day the LORD your God has commanded you to do these statutes and judgments: you shall therefore keep and do them with all of your heart, and with all your soul.
17 Dominum elegisti hodie ut sit tibi Deus et ambules in viis eius et custodias caerimonias illius et mandata atque iudicia et oboedias eius imperio
You have stand as a witness to the LORD this day to be your God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his voice:
18 et Dominus elegit te hodie ut sis ei populus peculiaris sicut locutus est tibi et custodias omnia praecepta eius
And the LORD has stand as a witness to you this day to be his exclusive people, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments;
19 et faciat te excelsiorem cunctis gentibus quas creavit in laudem et nomen et gloriam suam ut sis populus sanctus Domini Dei tui sicut locutus est
And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honour; and that you may be an holy people unto the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
