Exodus 20

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Then God delivered all these commandments:	1 Locutusque est Deus cunctos sermones hos:
2 "I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.	2 “ Ego sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de terra Aegypti, de domo servitutis.
3 You shall not have other gods besides me.	3 Non habebis deos alienos coram me.
4 You shall not carve idols for yourselves in the shape of anything in the sky above or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth;	4 Non facies tibi sculptile neque omnem similitudinem eorum, quae sunt in caelo desuper et quae in terra deorsum et quae in aquis sub terra.
5 you shall not bow down before them or worship them. For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishment for their fathers' wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation;	5 Non adorabis ea neque coles, quia ego sum Dominus Deus tuus, Deus zelotes, visitans iniquitatem patrum in filiis in tertiam et quartam generationem eorum, qui oderunt me,
6 but bestowing mercy down to the thousandth generation, on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.	6 et faciens misericordiam in milia his, qui diligunt me et custodiunt praecepta mea.
7 "You shall not take the name of the LORD, your God, in vain. For the LORD will not leave unpunished him who takes his name in vain.	7 Non assumes nomen Domini Dei tui in vanum, nec enim habebit insontem Dominus eum, qui assumpserit nomen Domini Dei sui frustra.
8 "Remember to keep holy the sabbath day.	8 Memento, ut diem sabbati sanctifices.
9 Six days you may labor and do all your work,	9 Sex diebus operaberis et facies omnia opera tua;
10 but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD, your God. No work may be done then either by you, or your son or daughter, or your male or female slave, or your beast, or by the alien who lives with you.	10 septimus autem dies sabbatum Domino Deo tuo est; non facies omne opus tu et filius tuus et filia tua, servus tuus et ancilla tua, iumentum tuum et advena, qui est intra portas tuas.
11 In six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them; but on the seventh day he rested. That is why the LORD has blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.	11 Sex enim diebus fecit Dominus caelum et terram et mare et omnia, quae in eis sunt, et requievit in die septimo; idcirco benedixit Dominus diei sabbati et sanctificavit eum.
12 "Honor your father and your mother, that you may have a long life in the land which the LORD, your God, is giving you.	12 Honora patrem tuum et matrem tuam, ut sis longaevus super terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi.
13 "You shall not kill.	13 Non occides.
14 "You shall not commit adultery.	14 Non moechaberis.
15 "You shall not steal.	15 Non furtum facies.
16 "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.	16 Non loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass, nor anything else that belongs to him."	17 Non concupisces domum proximi tui: non desiderabis uxorem eius, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum nec omnia, quae illius sunt ”.
18 When the people witnessed the thunder and lightning, the trumpet blast and the mountain smoking, they all feared and trembled. So they took up a position much farther away	18 Cunctus autem populus videbat voces et lampades et sonitum bucinae montemque fumantem; et perterriti ac pavore concussi steterunt procul
19 and said to Moses, "You speak to us, and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, or we shall die."	19 dicentes Moysi: “ Loquere tu nobis, et audiemus; non loquatur nobis Deus, ne moriamur ”.
20 Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid, for God has come to you only to test you and put his fear upon you, lest you should sin."	20 Et ait Moyses ad populum: “ Nolite timere; ut enim probaret vos, venit Deus, et ut timor illius esset in vobis, ne peccaretis ”.
21 Still the people remained at a distance, while Moses approached the cloud where God was.	21 Stetitque populus de longe; Moyses autem accessit ad caliginem, in qua erat Deus.
22 The LORD told Moses, "Thus shall you speak to the Israelites: You have seen for yourselves that I have spoken to you from heaven.	22 Dixit praeterea Dominus ad Moysen: “ Haec dices filiis Israel: Vos vidistis quod de caelo locutus sim vobis.
23 Do not make anything to rank with me; neither gods of silver nor gods of gold shall you make for yourselves.	23 Non facietis praeter me deos argenteos nec deos aureos facietis vobis.
24 "An altar of earth you shall make for me, and upon it you shall sacrifice your holocausts and peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen. In whatever place I choose for the remembrance of my name I will come to you and bless you.	24 Altare de terra facietis mihi et offeretis super eo holocausta et pacifica vestra, oves vestras et boves; in omni loco, in quo memoriam fecero nominis mei, veniam ad te et benedicam tibi.
25 If you make an altar of stone for me, do not build it of cut stone, for by putting a tool to it you desecrate it.	25 Quod si altare lapideum feceris mihi, non aedificabis illud de sectis lapidibus; si enim levaveris cultrum super eo, polluetur.
26 You shall not go up by steps to my altar, on which you must not be indecently uncovered.	26 Non ascendes per gradus ad altare meum, ne reveletur turpitudo tua.
