Deuteronômio 5 - Bíblia Online

En Moses het die hele Israel laat roep en vir hulle gesê: Hoor, Israel, die insettinge en die verordeninge wat ek vandag voor julle ore uitspreek; julle moet dit leer en dit sorgvuldig hou. 
Die HERE onse God het by Horeb met ons 'n verbond gesluit. 
Met ons vaders het die HERE hierdie verbond nie gesluit nie, maar met ons self, ons wat hier vandag almal in die lewe is. 
Van aangesig tot aangesig het die HERE op die berg uit die vuur met julle gespreek -- 
ek het in die tyd tussen die HERE en julle gestaan om aan julle die woord van die HERE bekend te maak, want julle was bevrees vir die vuur en het nie op die berg geklim nie -- en Hy het gesê: 
Ek is die HERE jou God wat jou uit Egipteland, uit die slawehuis, uitgelei het. 
Jy mag geen ander gode voor my aangesig hê nie. 
Jy mag vir jou geen gesnede beeld of enige gelykenis maak van wat bo in die hemel is, of van wat onder op die aarde is, of van wat in die waters onder die aarde is nie. 
Jy mag jou voor hulle nie neerbuig en hulle nie dien nie; want Ek, die HERE jou God, is 'n jaloerse God wat die misdaad van die vaders besoek aan die kinders, en aan die derde en aan die vierde geslag van die wat My haat; 
en Ek bewys barmhartigheid aan duisende van die wat My liefhet en my gebooie onderhou. 
Jy mag die Naam van die HERE jou God nie ydellik gebruik nie, want die HERE sal die een wat sy Naam ydellik gebruik, nie ongestraf laat bly nie. 
Onderhou die sabbatdag, dat jy dit heilig soos die HERE jou God jou beveel het. 
Ses dae moet jy arbei en al jou werk doen; 
maar die sewende dag is die sabbat van die HERE jou God; dan mag jy g,,n werk doen nie -- jy of jou seun of jou dogter, of jou dienskneg of jou diensmaagd, of jou os of jou esel of enige dier van jou, of jou vreemdeling wat in jou poorte is nie; sodat jou dienskneg en jou diensmaagd kan rus soos jy. 
En jy moet daaraan dink dat jy in Egipteland 'n slaaf was, en die HERE jou God jou daarvandaan uitgelei het deur 'n sterke hand en 'n uitgestrekte arm; daarom het die HERE jou God jou beveel om die sabbatdag te hou. 
Eer jou vader en jou moeder soos die HERE jou God jou beveel het, dat jou dae verleng mag word en dat dit met jou goed mag gaan in die land wat die HERE jou God aan jou gee. 
Jy mag nie doodslaan nie. 
En jy mag nie egbreek nie. 
En jy mag nie steel nie. 
En jy mag geen valse getuienis teen jou naaste spreek nie. 
En jy mag nie jou naaste se vrou begeer nie; en jy mag nie na jou naaste se huis hunker nie -- na sy landerye of sy dienskneg of sy diensmaagd, sy os of sy esel of iets wat van jou naaste is nie. 
Met hierdie woorde het die HERE julle hele vergadering op die berg, uit die vuur, die wolk en die wolkedonkerheid met 'n groot stem toegespreek, en niks meer nie; en Hy het dit op twee kliptafels geskrywe en dit aan my gegee. 
En toe julle die stem uit die duisternis hoor, terwyl die berg met vuur brand, het julle na my toe aangekom, al die hoofde van julle stamme en julle oudstes, 
en gesê: Kyk, die HERE onse God het ons sy heerlikheid en sy grootheid laat sien, en ons het sy stem uit die vuur gehoor; vandag het ons gesien dat God met die mens spreek en hy in die lewe bly. 
Maar waarom moet ons nou sterwe? Want hierdie groot vuur sal ons verteer. As ons die stem van die HERE onse God nog langer hoor, sal ons sterwe. 
Want wie is daar van alle vlees wat die stem van die lewende God uit die vuur hoor spreek het soos ons en in die lewe gebly het? 
Gaan u naderby en hoor alles wat die HERE onse God sal sê; dan kan u ons alles meedeel wat die HERE onse God met u sal spreek, en ons sal dit hoor en doen. 
En die HERE het die stem van julle woorde gehoor toe julle met my gespreek het. Toe sê die HERE vir my: Ek het gehoor die stem van die woorde van hierdie volk wat hulle met jou gespreek het; dit is alles goed wat hulle gespreek het. 
Ag, as hulle maar so 'n hart gehad het om My te vrees en al my gebooie altyd te onderhou, dat dit met hulle en hul kinders vir ewig goed kan gaan. 
Gaan sê vir hulle: Gaan maar terug na julle tente toe. 
Maar jy, bly hier by My staan, dat Ek jou kan meedeel al die gebooie en die insettinge en die verordeninge wat jy hulle moet leer, dat hulle dit kan doen in die land wat Ek hulle sal gee om dit in besit te neem. 
Sorg dan dat julle doen soos die HERE julle God julle beveel het; julle mag nie regs of links afwyk nie. 
In al die weë wat die HERE julle God julle beveel het moet julle wandel, sodat julle kan lewe en dit met julle goed kan gaan en julle die dae kan verleng in die land wat julle in besit sal neem. 

And Moses sent for all Israel, and said to them, Give ear, O Israel, to the laws and the decisions which I give you today, and give attention to them so that you may keep and do them. 
The Lord our God made an agreement with us in Horeb. 
The Lord did not make this agreement with our fathers but with us, who are all living and present here today. 
The word of the Lord came to you face to face on the mountain, out of the heart of the fire, 
(I was between the Lord and you at that time, to make clear to you the word of the Lord: because, through fear of the fire, you did not go up the mountain;) saying, 
I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house. 
You are to have no other gods but me. 
You may not make for yourselves an image in the form of anything in heaven or on earth or in the waters under the earth: 
You may not go down on your faces before them or give them worship: for I, the Lord your God, am a God who will not give his honour to another; and I will send punishment on the children for the wrongdoing of their fathers, to the third and fourth generation of my haters; 
And I will have mercy through a thousand generations on those who have love for me and keep my laws. 
You are not to make use of the name of the Lord your God for an evil purpose; whoever takes the Lord's name on his lips for an evil purpose will be judged as a sinner by the Lord. 
Keep the Sabbath day as a holy day, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God. 
On six days do all your work: 
But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; on that day do no work, you or your son or your daughter, or your man-servant or your woman-servant, or your ox or your ass or any of your cattle, or the man from a strange country who is living among you; so that your man-servant and your woman-servant may have rest as well as you. 
And keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord your God took you out of that land by his strong hand and his stretched-out arm: for this reason the Lord has given you orders to keep the Sabbath day. 
Give honour to your father and your mother, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God; so that your life may be long and all may be well for you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. 
Do not put anyone to death without cause. 
Do not be false to the married relation. 
Do not take the property of another. 
Do not give false witness against your neighbour; 
Or let your desire be turned to your neighbour's wife, or his house or his field or his man-servant or his woman-servant or his ox or his ass or anything which is your neighbour's. 
These words the Lord said to all of you together on the mountain, out of the heart of the fire, out of the cloud and the dark, with a great voice: and he said no more; he put them in writing on the two stones of the law and gave them to me. 
And after hearing the voice which came out of the dark while the mountain was burning with fire, all the heads of your tribes and your chiefs came to me, 
And said, The Lord has let us see his glory and his power, and his voice has come to us out of the fire: today we have seen that a man may go on living even after hearing the voice of God. 
Why then is death to be our fate? For if the voice of the Lord our God comes to us any more, death will overtake us, and we will be burned up in this great fire. 
For what man is there in all the earth, who, hearing the voice of the living God as we have, out of the heart of the fire, has been kept from death? 
Do you go near: and after hearing everything which the Lord our God has to say, give us an account of all he has said to you, and we will give ear, and do it. 
Then the Lord, hearing your words to me, said to me, The words which this people have said to you have come to my ears: what they have said is well said. 
If only they had such a heart in them at all times, so that they might go in fear of me and keep my orders and that it might be well for them and for their children for ever! 
Now say to them, Go back to your tents. 
But as for you, keep your place here by me, and I will give you all the orders and the laws and the decisions which you are to make clear to them, so that they may do them in the land which I am giving them for their heritage. 
Take care, then, to do whatever the Lord your God has given you orders to do; let there be no turning away to the right hand or to the left. 
Go on walking in the way ordered for you by the Lord your God, so that life may be yours and it may be well for you, and your days may be long in the land of your heritage.
