1 耶和华对摩西说: "你要凿出两块石版, 好像先前的一样, 我要把先前写在你摔碎了的石版上的字写在这两块石版上。
2 早晨之前, 你要预备好了; 到早晨的时候, 你要上到西奈山来, 在山顶上站在我面前。
3 谁也不准同你一起上来, 整个山都不准有人出现, 也不准牛羊在这山前吃草。"
4 摩西就凿了两块石版, 好像先前的一样。他一早起来, 照着耶和华吩咐他的, 上到西奈山去, 手里拿着两块石版。
5 耶和华在云彩中降下来, 与摩西一同站在那里, 并且宣告耶和华的名字。
6 耶和华在摩西面前经过, 并且宣告说: "耶和华, 耶和华, 是有怜悯有恩典的 神, 不轻易发怒, 并且有丰盛的慈爱和诚实,
7 为千千万万人留下慈爱, 赦免罪孽、过犯和罪恶。一定要清除罪, 追讨罪孽自父及子至孙, 直到三四代。"
8 摩西急忙俯首在地敬拜,
9 说: "主啊, 我若是在你眼前蒙恩, 求我主与我们同行, 因为这是硬着颈项的人民。又求你赦免我们的罪孽和我们的罪恶, 把我们当作你的产业。"
10 耶和华说: "看哪, 我要立约, 我要在你全体的人民面前作奇妙的事, 是在全地万国中没有行过的。在你四周的万民都必看见耶和华的作为, 因为我向你所行的是可畏惧的事。
11 我今天吩咐你的, 你务要遵守。看哪, 我要把亚摩利人、迦南人、赫人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人, 从你面前赶逐出去。
12 你要小心, 不可与你所去的那地的居民立约, 恐怕这事在你中间成为陷阱。
13 他们的祭坛你们却要拆毁, 他们的柱像你们要打碎, 他们的亚舍拉你们要砍下。
14 你不可敬拜别的神, 因为耶和华是忌邪的 神, 他名为忌邪者。
15 恐怕你与那地的居民立约, 他们随从自己的神行邪淫, 给自己的神献祭的时候, 有人叫你, 你就吃他的祭物;
16 又恐怕你给你的儿子娶他们的女儿为妻, 他们的女儿随从自己的神行邪淫的时候, 使你的儿子也随从她们的神行邪淫。
17 你不可为自己铸造神像。
18 "你要守除酵节, 要照着我吩咐你的, 在亚笔月内所定的时期吃无酵饼七天, 因为你是在亚笔月从埃及出来的。
19 凡是头胎的都是我的; 你的牲畜中, 无论是牛或羊, 凡是公的和头生的, 都是我的。
20 头生的驴, 你要用羊代赎, 如果不代赎, 就要打断它的颈项。你所有头胎的儿子, 你都要代赎出来。没有人可以空手见我。
21 "你六日要工作, 但第七天你要休息, 在耕种和收割的时候, 也要休息。
22 在收割初熟麦子的时候, 你要守七七节; 在年底, 你要过收割节。
23 你所有的男子, 都要一年三次去见主耶和华以色列的 神。
24 我要把列国从你面前赶出去, 扩张你的境界; 你一年三次上去面见耶和华你的 神的时候, 必没有人贪图你的地。
25 "你不可把我祭物的血和有酵的饼一同献上, 逾越节的祭物也不可留到早晨。
26 你要把你地里最早生产的初熟之物送到耶和华你的 神的殿里。不可用羊羔母的奶去煮羊羔。"
27 耶和华对摩西说: "你要把这些话写上, 因为我是按着这些话与你和以色列人立约的。"
28 摩西在那里与耶和华在一起共四十昼夜, 不吃饭, 也不喝水。他把这约的话写在两块版上, 这就是十诫。
29 摩西从西奈山下来的时候, 手里拿着两块法版; 摩西从山上下来的时候, 不知道自己的脸皮因为与耶和华谈过话而发光。
30 亚伦和全体以色列人看见了摩西, 见他脸上发光, 就害怕接近他。
31 摩西叫他们过来, 于是, 亚伦和会众中所有的首领才回到摩西那里去, 摩西就与他们谈话。
32 以后, 全体以色列人都近前来, 摩西就把耶和华在西奈山上与他所说的一切话都吩咐他们。
33 摩西和他们说完了话, 就用帕子蒙上自己的脸。
34 每逢摩西进到耶和华面前与他谈话的时候, 就把帕子揭去, 直到他出来。他出来了, 就把耶和华吩咐他的对以色列人说。
35 以色列人看见摩西的脸, 见他的脸皮发光。摩西再用帕子蒙上自己的脸, 直到他进去和耶和华说话为止。
1 Yahweh said to Moses, "Chisel two stone tablets like the first. I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. 2 Be ready by the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me on the top of the mountain. 3 No one shall come up with you or be seen anywhere on the mountain. Do not let the flocks or herds graze in front of that mountain."
4 He chiseled two tablets of stone like the first; then Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up to Mount Sinai, as Yahweh had commanded him, and took in his hand two stone tablets. 5 Yahweh descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed Yahweh’s name. 6 Yahweh passed by before him, and proclaimed, "Yahweh! Yahweh, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth, 7 keeping loving kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and disobedience and sin; and who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the children’s children, on the third and on the fourth generation."
8 Moses hurried and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshiped. 9 He said, "If now I have found favor in your sight, Lord, please let the Lord go among us, even though this is a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance."
10 He said, "Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of Yahweh; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you. 11 Observe that which I command you today. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite. 12 Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare among you; 13 but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherah poles; 14 for you shall worship no other god; for Yahweh, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
15 "Don’t make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, lest they play the prostitute after their gods, and sacrifice to their gods, and one call you and you eat of his sacrifice; 16 and you take of their daughters to your sons, and their daughters play the prostitute after their gods, and make your sons play the prostitute after their gods.
17 "You shall make no cast idols for yourselves.
18 "You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt.
19 "All that opens the womb is mine; and all your livestock that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep. 20 You shall redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb. If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before me empty.
21 "Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.
22 "You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year’s end. 23 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord Yahweh, the God of Israel. 24 For I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land when you go up to appear before Yahweh, your God, three times in the year.
25 "You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread. The sacrifice of the feast of the Passover shall not be left to the morning.
26 "You shall bring the first of the first fruits of your ground to the house of Yahweh your God.
"You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk."
27 Yahweh said to Moses, "Write these words; for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."
28 He was there with Yahweh forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread, nor drank water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mountain, Moses didn’t know that the skin of his face shone by reason of his speaking with him. 30 When Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him. 31 Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them. 32 Afterward all the children of Israel came near, and he gave them all the commandments that Yahweh had spoken with him on Mount Sinai. 33 When Moses was done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But when Moses went in before Yahweh to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out, and spoke to the children of Israel that which he was commanded. 35 The children of Israel saw Moses’ face, that the skin of Moses’ face shone; so Moses put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
