2 Mojzes 20
1 Bog je spregovoril vse te besede, rekoč:
God 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.
Do not have other gods before 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.
"Do not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water 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 must 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 upon the children's children, on the third and on the fourth [generation] of those who hate me,
6 izkazujem pa usmiljenje tisočem tistih, ki me ljubijo in varujejo moje zapovedi.
and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and 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.
"Do not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who 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 may labor, and do 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 the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. You must not do any work in it, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates;
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 heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the seventh day, and made it holy.
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, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
13 Ne boš ubil.
"Do not commit adultery.
14 Ne boš zagrešil zakonolomstva.
"Do not murder.
15 Ne boš kradel.
"Do not steal.
16 Ne boš prinašal krivega pričevanja zoper svojega bližnjega.
"Do not give false testimony 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!«
"Do not covet your neighbor's house. Do not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's."
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 saw the thunder and the lightning and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking, and the people were afraid and trembled and kept their distance.
19 Mojzesu pa so rekli: »Ti govori z nami, mi pa bomo poslušali, toda Bog naj z nami ne govori, da ne bi umrli.«
They said to Moses, "Speak with us yourself, and we will listen; but do not let God speak with 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.«
Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid, for God has come to test you, and that his fear may be before you, that you won't sin."
21 Ljudstvo je stalo daleč stran, Mojzes pa se je približal gosti temi, kjer je bil Bog.
The people stayed at a distance, and Moses drew near to the thick darkness where God was.
22 Gospod je rekel Mojzesu: »Tako boš rekel Izraelovim otrokom: ›Videli ste, da sem z vami govoril iz nebes.
The LORD said to Moses, "This is what you shall tell the children of Israel: 'You yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 Poleg mene ne boste delali bogov iz srebra niti si ne boste delali bogov iz zlata.
You shall most certainly not make alongside of me gods of silver, or gods of gold for 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 an altar of earth for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I record my name I will come to you and I will 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.
If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of cut stones; for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it.
26 Niti k mojemu oltarju ne boš šel gor po stopnicah, da na njih ne bo odkrita tvoja nagota.
Neither shall you go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness may not be exposed to it.'
