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 calleth unto all Israel, and saith unto them, `Hear, Israel, the statutes and the judgments which I am speaking in your ears to-day, and ye have learned them, and have observed to do them.2 Jehovah our God made with us a covenant in Horeb;3 not with our fathers hath Jehovah made this covenant, but with us; we -- these -- here to-day -- all of us alive.4 Face to face hath Jehovah spoken with you, in the mount, out of the midst of the fire;5 I am standing between Jehovah and you, at that time, to declare to you the word of Jehovah, for ye have been afraid from the presence of the fire, and ye have not gone up into the mount; saying:6 `I Jehovah [am] thy God, who hath brought thee out from the land of Egypt, from a house of servants.7 `Thou hast no other gods in My presence.8 `Thou dost not make to thee a graven image, any similitude which [is] in the heavens above, and which [is] in the earth beneath, and which [is] in the waters under the earth;9 thou dost not bow thyself to them nor serve them, for I Jehovah thy God [am] a zealous God, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on a third [generation], and on a fourth, to those hating Me;10 and doing kindness to thousands, to those loving Me, and to those keeping My commands.11 `Thou dost not take up the Name of Jehovah thy God for a vain thing, for Jehovah doth not acquit him who taketh up His Name for a vain thing.12 `Observe the day of the sabbath -- to sanctify it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee;13 six days thou dost labour, and hast done all thy work,14 and the seventh day [is] a sabbath to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not do any work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and thine ox, and thine ass, and all thy cattle, and thy sojourner who [is] within thy gates; so that thy man-servant, and thy handmaid doth rest like thyself;15 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God is bringing thee out thence by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm; therefore hath Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the day of the sabbath.16 `Honour thy father and thy mother, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee, so that thy days are prolonged, and so that it is well with thee, on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee.17 `Thou dost not murder.18 `Thou dost not commit adultery.19 `Thou dost not steal.20 `Thou dost not answer against thy neighbour -- a false testimony.21 `Thou dost not desire thy neighbour`s wife; nor dost thou covet thy neighbour`s house, his field, and his man-servant, and his handmaid, his ox, and his ass, and anything which [is] thy neighbour`s.22 `These words hath Jehovah spoken unto all your assembly, in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness -- a great voice; and He hath not added, and He writeth them on two tables of stone, and giveth them unto me.23 `And it cometh to pass as ye hear the voice out of the midst of the darkness, and of the mountain burning with fire, that ye come near unto me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders,24 and say, Lo, Jehovah our God hath shewed us His honour, and His greatness; and His voice we have heard out of the midst of the fire; this day we have seen that God doth speak with man -- and he hath lived.25 `And, now, why do we die? for consume us doth this great fire -- if we add to hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more -- then we have died.26 For who of all flesh [is] he who hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire like us -- and doth live?27 Draw near thou, and hear all that which Jehovah our God saith, and thou, thou dost speak unto us all that which Jehovah our God speaketh unto thee, and we have hearkened, and done it.28 `And Jehovah heareth the voice of your words, in your speaking unto me, and Jehovah saith unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken unto thee; they have done well [in] all that they have spoken.29 O that their heart had been thus to them, to fear Me, and to keep My commands all the days, that it may be well with them, and with their sons -- to the age!30 `Go, say to them, Turn back for yourselves, to your tents;31 and thou here stand thou with Me, and let Me speak unto thee all the command, and the statutes, and the judgments which thou dost teach them, and they have done in the land which I am giving to them to possess it.32 `And ye have observed to do as Jehovah your God hath commanded you, ye turn not aside -- right or left;33 in all the way which Jehovah your God hath commanded you ye walk, so that ye live, and [it is] well with you, and ye have prolonged days in the land which ye possess.
