2 Mojzes 20
1 Bog je spregovoril vse te besede, rekoč:
And the Lord spoke all these words, saying:
2 »Jaz sem Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki sem te privedel iz egiptovske dežele, iz hiše sužnosti.
I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Pred menoj ne boš imel nobenih drugih bogov.
You shall have no other gods beside me.
4 Sebi ne boš naredil nobene rezane podobe ali kakršnekoli podobnosti čemurkoli, kar je zgoraj na nebu ali kar je spodaj na zemlji ali kar je v vodi pod zemljo.
You shall not make to yourself an idol, nor likeness of anything, whatever things are in the heaven above, and whatever are in the earth beneath, and whatever are in the waters under the earth.
5 Ne boš se jim priklanjal niti jim ne boš služil, kajti jaz, Gospod, tvoj Bog, sem ljubosumen Bog, ki obiskujem krivičnost očetov na otrocih do tretjega in četrtega rodu tistih, ki me sovražijo,
You shall not bow down to them, nor serve them; for I am the Lord your God, a jealous God, recompensing the sins of the fathers upon the children, to the third and fourth generation to them that hate me,
6 izkazujem pa usmiljenje tisočem tistih, ki me ljubijo in varujejo moje zapovedi.
and bestowing mercy on them that love me to thousands [of them], and on them that keep my commandments.
7 Ne boš v prazno vzel imena Gospoda, svojega Boga; kajti Gospod ne bo držal brez krivde tistega, ki v prazno jemlje njegovo ime.
You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain; for the Lord your God will not acquit him that takes his name in vain.
8 Spominjaj se šabatnega dne, da ga ohraniš svetega.
Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy.
9 Šest dni se boš trudil in opravljal vse svoje delo,
Six days you shall labor, and shall perform all your work.
10 toda sedmi dan je šabat Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu. Na [ta dan] ne boš opravljal nobenega dela, ne ti, niti tvoj sin, niti tvoja hči, [niti] tvoj sluga, niti tvoja dekla, niti tvoja živina, niti tvoj tujec, ki je znotraj tvojih velikih vrat,
But on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord your God; on it you shall do no work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your servant nor your maidservant, your ox nor your ass, nor any cattle of your, nor the stranger that sojourns with you.
11 kajti v šestih dneh je Gospod naredil nebo in zemljo, morje in vse, kar je v njih, sedmi dan pa je počival. Zato je Gospod blagoslovil šabatni dan in ga posvetil.
For in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and the sea and all things in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it.
12 Spoštuj svojega očeta in svojo mater, da bodo tvoji dnevi lahko dolgi na zemlji, ki ti jo daje Gospod, tvoj Bog.
Honor your father and your mother, that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the good land, which the Lord your God gives to you.
13 Ne boš ubil.
You shall not commit adultery.
14 Ne boš zagrešil zakonolomstva.
You shall not steal.
15 Ne boš kradel.
You shall not kill.
16 Ne boš prinašal krivega pričevanja zoper svojega bližnjega.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 Ne boš hlepel [po] hiši svojega bližnjega, ne boš hlepel [po] ženi svojega bližnjega, niti [po] njegovem slugi, niti [po] njegovi dekli, niti [po] njegovem volu, niti [po] njegovem oslu, niti [po] katerikoli stvari, ki je od tvojega bližnjega!«
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife; you shall not covet your neighbor's house; nor his field, nor his servant, nor his maid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any of his cattle, nor whatever belongs to your neighbor.
18 In vse ljudstvo je videlo grmenja in bliske, zvok šofarja in kadečo goro. Ko je ljudstvo to videlo, so se odstranili in stali daleč stran.
And all the people perceived the thundering, and the flashes, and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and all the people feared and stood afar off,
19 Mojzesu pa so rekli: »Ti govori z nami, mi pa bomo poslušali, toda Bog naj z nami ne govori, da ne bi umrli.«
and said to Moses, Speak you to us, and let not God speak to us, lest we die.
20 Mojzes je ljudstvu rekel: »Ne bojte se, kajti Bog je prišel, da vas preizkusi in da je njegov strah lahko pred vašimi obrazi, da ne grešite.«
And Moses says to them, Be of good courage, for God is come to you to try you, that his fear may be among you, that you sin not.
21 Ljudstvo je stalo daleč stran, Mojzes pa se je približal gosti temi, kjer je bil Bog.
And the people stood afar off, and Moses went into the darkness where God was.
22 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Tako boš rekel Izraelovim otrokom: ›Videli ste, da sem z vami govoril iz nebes.
And the Lord said to Moses, Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob, and you shall report it to the children of Israel, You have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.
23 Poleg mene ne boste delali bogov iz srebra niti si ne boste delali bogov iz zlata.
You shall not make to yourselves gods of silver, and gods of gold you shall not make to yourselves.
24 Naredil mi boš oltar iz zemlje in na njem boš žrtvoval svoje žgalne daritve in svoje mirovne daritve, svoje ovce in svoje vole. Na vseh krajih, kjer zapišem svoje ime, bom prišel k tebi in te blagoslovil.
You shall make to me an altar of earth; and upon it you shall sacrifice your whole burnt offerings, and your peace-offerings, and your sheep and your calves in every place, where I shall record my name; and I will come to you and bless you.
25 Če mi hočeš narediti oltar iz kamna, ga ne boš zgradil iz klesanega kamna, kajti če svoje orodje dvigneš nanj, si ga oskrunil.
And if you will make to me an altar of stones, you shall not build them hewn [stones]; for you have lifted up your tool upon them, and they are defiled.
26 Niti k mojemu oltarju ne boš šel gor po stopnicah, da na njih ne bo odkrita tvoja nagota.
You shall not go up to my altar by steps, that you may not uncover your nakedness upon it.
