1 Moses called to all Israel, and said to them, "Hear, Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears today, that you may learn them, and observe to do them." 2 Yahweh our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. 3 Yahweh didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive today. 4 Yahweh spoke with you face to face on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, 5 (I stood between Yahweh and you at that time, to show you Yahweh’s word; for you were afraid because of the fire, and didn’t go up onto the mountain) saying,
6 "I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
7 "You shall have no other gods before me.
8 "You shall not make a carved image for yourself—any likeness of what is in heaven above, or what is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 9 You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me 10 and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
11 "You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God; for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
12 "Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Yahweh your God commanded you. 13 You shall labor six days, and do all your work; 14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God, in which you shall not do any work— neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 15 You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and Yahweh your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore Yahweh your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 "Honor your father and your mother, as Yahweh your God commanded you, that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.
17 "You shall not murder.
18 "You shall not commit adultery.
19 "You shall not steal.
20 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
21 "You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s."
22 Yahweh spoke these words to all your assembly on the mountain out of the middle of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice. He added no more. He wrote them on two stone tablets, and gave them to me. 23 When you heard the voice out of the middle of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; 24 and you said, "Behold, Yahweh our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the middle of the fire. We have seen today that God does speak with man, and he lives. 25 Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear Yahweh our God’s voice any more, then we shall die. 26 For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the middle of the fire, as we have, and lived? 27 Go near, and hear all that Yahweh our God shall say, and tell us all that Yahweh our God tells you; and we will hear it, and do it."
28 Yahweh heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me; and Yahweh said to me, "I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. 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 forever!
30 "Go tell them, ‘Return to your tents.’ 31 But as for you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess."
32 You shall observe to do therefore as Yahweh your God has commanded you. You shall not turn away to the right hand or to the left. 33 You shall walk in all the way which Yahweh your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
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。"
