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,
Now these are the commandments, statutes, and decrees that Yahweh your God has commanded me to teach you, so that you might keep them in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess;
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 might honor Yahweh your God, so as to keep all his statutes and commandments that I am commanding you—you, your sons, and your sons' sons, all the days of your lives, so that your days may be 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.
Therefore listen to them, Israel, and keep them, so that it may go well with you, so that you may greatly multiply, in a land flowing with milk and honey, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has promised you would do.
4 Oye, Israel: Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, Yavé es uno.
Listen, Israel: Yahweh our God is one.
5 Amarás a Yavé tu ʼElohim con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu fuerza.
You will love Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
6 Estas palabras que te ordeno hoy permanecerán sobre tu corazón.
The words that I am commanding you today will be in 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 will diligently teach them to your children; you will talk about them when you sit in your house, when you walk on the road, when you lie down, and when you get up.
8 Las atarás como señal sobre tu mano, y estarán como frontales entre tus ojos.
You will tie them as a sign upon your hand, and they will serve as frontlets between your eyes.
9 Las escribirás en las jambas de tu casa y en tus puertas.
You will write them on the 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,
When Yahweh your God brings you into the land that he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, that he would give you, with large and very good cities that you did not build,
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 kinds of good things that you did not make, cisterns that you did not dig, and vineyards and olive trees that you did not plant, you will eat and be satisfied—
12 guárdate de olvidar a Yavé Quien te sacó de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de esclavitud.
then be careful so that you do not forget Yahweh, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
13 Temerás a Yavé tu ʼElohim. A Él servirás y en su Nombre jurarás.
You will honor Yahweh your God; him you will worship, and you will swear by his name.
14 No seguirán otros ʼelohim, los ʼelohim de los pueblos que los rodean,
You will not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples who are all 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 Yahweh your God in the midst of you is a jealous God—if you do, the anger of Yahweh your God will be kindled against you and he will destroy you from the surface of the earth.
16 No tentarán a Yavé su ʼElohim, como lo tentaron en Masa.
You will not test Yahweh your God as you tested him at Massah.
17 Guarden diligentemente los Mandamientos de Yavé su ʼElohim, sus Testimonios y sus Estatutos que les ordenó.
You will diligently keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, his solemn commands, and his statutes, that 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,
You will do what is right and good in the sight of Yahweh, that it may go well with you, and that you may go in and possess the good land that Yahweh swore to your fathers,
19 para que Él eche a todos tus enemigos de delante de ti, como Yavé prometió.
to drive out all your enemies from before you, as Yahweh has said.
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 in time to come, saying, 'What are the covenant decrees, the statutes, and the other decrees that Yahweh our God 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 will say to your son, 'We were Pharaoh's slaves in Egypt; Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand,
22 Ante nuestros propios ojos, Yavé hizo señales y grandes prodigios en Egipto contra Faraón y contra toda su casa,
and he displayed 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 brought us out from there, so that he might bring us in, to give us the land that he swore 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.
Yahweh commanded us to always keep all these statutes, to fear Yahweh our God for our good, so that he might keep us alive, as we are today.
25 Será justicia para nosotros si tenemos el cuidado de cumplir todo este Mandamiento delante de Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, tal como Él nos ordenó.
If we keep all these commands before Yahweh our God, as he has commanded us, this will be our righteousness.'
