Deuteronomio 6
1 Estos son, pues, los Mandamientos, los Estatutos y las Ordenanzas que Yavé su ʼElohim ordenó que les enseñara para que los practiquen en la tierra a la cual pasan para poseerla,
“And this [is] the command, the statutes and the judgments which your God YHWH has commanded to teach you to do in the land which you are passing over there to possess it,
2 a fin de que temas a Yavé tu ʼElohim, tú, tu hijo y tu nieto, y guarden todos los días de tu vida todos sus Estatutos y Mandamientos que yo te ordeno para que tus días sean prolongados.
so that you fear your God YHWH, to keep all His statutes and His commands which I am commanding you, you, and your son, and your son’s son, all [the] days of your life, and so that your days are prolonged.
3 Oye pues, oh Israel, y cuidarás de hacerlo, como Yavé, el ʼElohim de tus antepasados, te habló para que te vaya bien y te multipliques muchísimo en la tierra que fluye leche y miel.
And you have heard, O Israel, and observed to do [them], that it may be well with you, and that you may multiply exceedingly, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you, [in] the land flowing with milk and honey.
4 Oye, Israel: Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, Yavé es uno.
Hear, O Israel: Our God YHWH—YHWH [is] one!
5 Amarás a Yavé tu ʼElohim con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu fuerza.
And you have loved your God YHWH with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
6 Estas palabras que te ordeno hoy permanecerán sobre tu corazón.
And these words which I am commanding you today have been on your heart,
7 Las inculcarás a tus hijos y hablarás de ellas sentado en tu casa, cuando andes por el camino, al acostarte y al levantarte.
and you have repeated them to your sons, and spoken of them in your sitting in your house, and in your walking in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,
8 Las atarás como señal sobre tu mano, y estarán como frontales entre tus ojos.
and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes,
9 Las escribirás en las jambas de tu casa y en tus puertas.
and you have written them on doorposts of your house and on your gates.
10 Sucederá que cuando Yavé tu ʼElohim te introduzca en la tierra que juró a tus antepasados, a Abraham, a Isaac y a Jacob, que te daría una tierra que tiene grandes y espléndidas ciudades que tú no edificaste,
And it has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to you great and good cities which you have not built,
11 con casas llenas de todo bien que tú no llenaste, con pozos excavados que tú no cavaste, y con viñas y olivares que tú no plantaste, y comas y te hartes,
and houses full of all good things which you have not filled, and wells dug which you have not dug, vineyards and olive-yards which you have not planted, that you have eaten and been satisfied.
12 guárdate de olvidar a Yavé Quien te sacó de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de esclavitud.
Take heed to yourself lest you forget YHWH who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants.
13 Temerás a Yavé tu ʼElohim. A Él servirás y en su Nombre jurarás.
You fear your God YHWH, and you serve Him, and you swear by His Name.
14 No seguirán otros ʼelohim, los ʼelohim de los pueblos que los rodean,
You do not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who [are] around you,
15 porque Yavé tu ʼElohim, Quien mora en medio de ti, es celoso, no sea que el furor de Yavé tu ʼElohim se encienda contra ti y te destruya de sobre la superficie de la tierra.
for your God YHWH [is] a zealous God in your midst—lest the anger of your God YHWH burns against you, and He has destroyed you from off the face of the ground.
16 No tentarán a Yavé su ʼElohim, como lo tentaron en Masa.
You do not try your God YHWH as you tried [Him] in Massah.
17 Guarden diligentemente los Mandamientos de Yavé su ʼElohim, sus Testimonios y sus Estatutos que les ordenó.
You diligently keep the commands of your God YHWH, and His testimonies and His statutes which He has commanded you,
18 Harás lo recto y lo bueno ante Yavé para que te vaya bien, y entres y poseas la buena tierra que Yavé prometió con juramento a tus antepasados,
and you have done that which is right and good in the eyes of YHWH, so that it is well with you, and you have gone in and possessed the good land which YHWH has sworn to your fathers,
19 para que Él eche a todos tus enemigos de delante de ti, como Yavé prometió.
to drive away all your enemies from your presence, as YHWH has spoken.
20 Cuando tu hijo te pregunte mañana: ¿Qué significan los Testimonios, los Estatutos y las Ordenanzas que Yavé nuestro ʼElohim les ordenó?
When your son asks you hereafter, saying, What [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments which our God YHWH has commanded you?
21 Entonces dirás a tu hijo: Nosotros éramos esclavos de Faraón en Egipto, pero Yavé nos sacó de Egipto con mano fuerte.
Then you have said to your son, We have been servants of Pharaoh in Egypt, and YHWH brings us out of Egypt by a high hand;
22 Ante nuestros propios ojos, Yavé hizo señales y grandes prodigios en Egipto contra Faraón y contra toda su casa,
and YHWH gives signs and wonders, great and severe, on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;
23 y nos sacó de allá para traernos y darnos la tierra que prometió con juramento a nuestros antepasados.
and He has brought us out from there, in order to bring us in, to give to us the land which He had sworn to our fathers.
24 Yavé nos ordenó practicar todos estos Estatutos y temer a Yavé nuestro ʼElohim para que siempre nos vaya bien y para que nos conserve la vida, como sucede hoy.
And YHWH commands us to do all these statutes, to fear our God YHWH, for good to ourselves [for] all the days, to keep us alive, as [at] this day;
25 Será justicia para nosotros si tenemos el cuidado de cumplir todo este Mandamiento delante de Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, tal como Él nos ordenó.
and it is righteousness for us when we observe to do all this command before our God YHWH, as He has commanded us.”
