1 摩西把以色列人都召了来, 对他们说: "以色列人哪, 我今日讲给你们听的律例和典章, 你们要听从, 要学习, 要谨慎遵行。
2 耶和华我们的 神在何烈山与我们立了约。
3 这约, 耶和华不是与我们的列祖立的, 而是与我们今日在这里还活着的人立的。
4 耶和华在山上, 从火中, 面对面的与你们说话。
5 那时, 我站在耶和华和你们中间, 要把耶和华的话告诉你们; 你们因为惧怕那火, 所以没有上到山上来, 耶和华说:
6 "‘我是耶和华你的 神, 曾经把你从埃及地, 从为奴之家领出来。
7 "‘除我以外, 你不可有别的神。
8 "‘你不可为自己做偶像, 也不可做天上、地下和地底下水中各物的形象。
9 不可跪拜它们, 也不可事奉它们, 因为我耶和华你们的 神是忌邪的 神; 恨恶我的, 我必追讨他们的罪, 从父亲到儿子, 直到三四代。
10 爱我和遵守我诫命的, 我必向他们施慈爱, 直到千代。
11 "‘不可妄称耶和华你 神的名, 因为妄称耶和华的名的, 耶和华必不以他为无罪。
12 "‘要遵守安息日为圣日, 照着耶和华你 神吩咐你的。
13 六日要劳碌, 作你一切工作。
14 但第七日是属于耶和华你 神的安息日; 这一日, 你和你的儿女、仆婢、牛驴和一切牲畜, 以及你城里的寄居者, 不可作任何的工, 好使你的仆婢可以和你一样享受安息。
15 你要记住: 你在埃及地作过奴仆; 耶和华你的 神用大能的手和伸出来的膀臂, 把你从那里领出来, 因此耶和华你的 神吩咐你要守安息日。
16 "‘要孝敬父母, 照着耶和华你的 神吩咐你的, 使你可以得享长寿, 也使你在耶和华你的 神赐给你的地上, 得享福乐。
17 "‘不可杀人。
18 "‘不可奸淫。
19 "‘不可偷盗。
20 "‘不可作假证供陷害你的邻舍。
21 "‘不可贪爱你邻舍的妻子; 不可贪图你邻舍的房屋、田地、仆婢、牛驴和你邻舍的任何东西。’
22 "这些话就是耶和华在山上, 从火中、密云中、幽暗里, 大声对你们全体会众所说的, 并没有加添什么; 他把这些话写在两块石版上, 交给了我。
23 那时山上被火烧着, 你们听见有声音从黑暗中发出来的时候, 你们各支派的首领和你们的长老, 都走到我这里来,
24 说: ‘看哪, 耶和华我们的 神把他的荣耀和伟大显给我们看, 我们又听见他从火中发出来的声音; 今日我们看见了 神与人说话, 而人还能活着。
25 现在这大火快要吞灭我们了, 我们为什么要冒死呢?如果我们再听见耶和华我们 神的声音, 我们就必死亡。
26 因为有血肉生命的人, 有谁像我们一样, 听见永活的 神从火中说话的声音, 还能活着呢?
27 现在求你走前去, 听听耶和华我们的 神要说的一切话; 然后你要把耶和华我们的 神对你所说的一切话, 都告诉我们; 我们就必听从, 也必遵行。’
28 "你们对我说话的时候, 耶和华听见了你们说话的声音; 耶和华就对我说: ‘这人民对你所说的话, 我都听见了; 他们所说的都很好。
29 但愿他们常常存着这样的心, 敬畏我, 遵守我的一切诫命, 使他们和他们的子孙永享福乐。
30 你去对他们说: "你们回到自己的帐棚里去吧。"
31 至于你, 你要站在我这里; 我要把一切诫命、律例、典章, 都告诉你; 你要教导他们, 使他们在我赐给他们作产业的地上遵行。’
32 所以, 你们要照着耶和华你们的 神吩咐你们的, 谨守遵行, 不可偏离左右。
33 你们要走在耶和华你们的 神吩咐你们走的路上, 使你们可以活着, 可以享福, 并且使你在将要占领为业的地上, 可以长久居住。"
1 And Moses called unto all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and observe to do them. 2 Jehovah our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. 3 Jehovah made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day. 4 Jehovah spake with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire 5 (I stood between Jehovah and you at that time, to show you the word of Jehovah: for ye were afraid because of the fire, and went not up into the mount), saying,
6 I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
8 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 9 thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I, Jehovah, thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me; 10 and showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain: for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12 Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee. 13 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; 14 but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou. 15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16 Honor thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee; that thy days may be long, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
17 Thou shalt not kill.
18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Neither shalt thou steal.
20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
21 Neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor’s wife; neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor’s house, his field, or his man-servant, or his maid-servant, his ox, or his ass, or anything that is thy neighbor’s.
22 These words Jehovah spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them upon two tables of stone, and gave them unto me. 23 And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; 24 and ye said, Behold, Jehovah our God hath showed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth speak with man, and he liveth. 25 Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more, then we shall die. 26 For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived? 27 Go thou near, and hear all that Jehovah our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that Jehovah our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
28 And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and Jehovah said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken. 29 Oh that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever! 30 Go say to them, Return ye to your tents. 31 But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it. 32 Ye shall observe to do therefore as Jehovah your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 33 Ye shall walk in all the way which Jehovah your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
