Exodus 34

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 The LORD said to Moses, "Cut two stone tablets like the former, that I may write on them the commandments which were on the former tablets that you broke.	1 Dixitque Dominus ad Moy sen: “ Praecide tibi duas ta bulas lapideas instar priorum, et scribam super eas verba, quae habuerunt tabulae, quas fregisti.
2 Get ready for tomorrow morning, when you are to go up Mount Sinai and there present yourself to me on the top of the mountain.	2 Esto paratus mane, ut ascendas statim in montem Sinai; stabisque mihi super verticem montis.
3 No one shall come up with you, and no one is even to be seen on any part of the mountain; even the flocks and the herds are not to go grazing toward this mountain."	3 Nullus ascendat tecum, nec videatur quispiam per totum montem; oves quoque et boves non pascantur e contra ”.
4 Moses then cut two stone tablets like the former, and early the next morning he went up Mount Sinai as the LORD had commanded him, taking along the two stone tablets.	4 Excidit ergo duas tabulas lapideas, quales antea fuerant; et de nocte consurgens ascendit in montem Sinai, sicut praeceperat ei Dominus, portans secum tabulas.
5 Having come down in a cloud, the LORD stood with him there and proclaimed his name, "LORD."	5 Cumque descendisset Dominus per nubem, stetit cum eo vocans in nomine Domini.
6 Thus the LORD passed before him and cried out, "The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity,	6 Et transiens coram eo clamavit: “ Dominus, Dominus Deus, misericors et clemens, patiens et multae miserationis ac verax,
7 continuing his kindness for a thousand generations, and forgiving wickedness and crime and sin; yet not declaring the guilty guiltless, but punishing children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation for their fathers' wickedness!"	7 qui custodit misericordiam in milia, qui aufert iniquitatem et scelera atque peccata, nihil autem impunitum sinit, qui reddit iniquitatem patrum in filiis ac nepotibus in tertiam et quartam progeniem ”.
8 Moses at once bowed down to the ground in worship.	8 Festinusque Moyses curvatus est pronus in terram et adorans
9 Then he said, "If I find favor with you, O Lord, do come along in our company. This is indeed a stiff-necked people; yet pardon our wickedness and sins, and receive us as your own."	9 ait: “ Si inveni gratiam in conspectu tuo, Domine, obsecro, ut gradiaris nobiscum; populus quidem durae cervicis est, sed tu auferes iniquitates nostras atque peccata nosque possidebis ”.
10 "Here, then," said the LORD, "is the covenant I will make. Before the eyes of all your people I will work such marvels as have never been wrought in any nation anywhere on earth, so that this people among whom you live may see how awe-inspiring are the deeds which I, the LORD, will do at your side.	10 Respondit Dominus: “ Ego inibo pactum coram universo populo tuo; mirabilia faciam, quae numquam visa sunt super totam terram nec in ullis gentibus, ut cernat cunctus populus, in cuius es medio, opus Domini terribile, quod facturus sum tecum.
11 But you, on your part, must keep the commandments I am giving you today. "I will drive out before you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.	11 Observa cuncta, quae hodie mando tibi: ego ipse eiciam ante faciem tuam Amorraeum et Chananaeum et Hetthaeum, Pherezaeum quoque et Hevaeum et Iebusaeum.
12 Take care, therefore, not to make a covenant with these inhabitants of the land that you are to enter; else they will become a snare among you.	12 Cave, ne umquam cum habitatoribus terrae, quam intraveris, iungas amicitias, quae tibi sint in ruinam;
13 Tear down their altars; smash their sacred pillars, and cut down their sacred poles.	13 sed aras eorum destrue, confringe lapides palosque succide.
14 You shall not worship any other god, for the LORD is 'the Jealous One'; a jealous God is he.	14 Noli adorare deum alienum: Dominus Zelotes nomen eius, Deus est aemulator.
15 Do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of that land; else, when they render their wanton worship to their gods and sacrifice to them, one of them may invite you and you may partake of his sacrifice.	15 Ne ineas pactum cum hominibus illarum regionum, ne, cum fornicati fuerint cum diis suis et sacrificaverint eis, vocet te quispiam, et comedas de immolatis.
16 Neither shall you take their daughters as wives for your sons; otherwise, when their daughters render their wanton worship to their gods, they will make your sons do the same.	16 Nec uxorem de filiabus eorum accipies filiis tuis, ne, postquam ipsae fuerint fornicatae cum diis suis, fornicari faciant et filios tuos in deos suos.
17 "You shall not make for yourselves molten gods.	17 Deos conflatiles non facies tibi.
18 "You shall keep the feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days at the prescribed time in the month of Abib you are to eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you; for in the month of Abib you came out of Egypt.	18 Sollemnitatem Azymorum custodies: septem diebus vesceris azymis, sicut praecepi tibi, in tempore constituto mensis Abib; mense enim verni temporis egressus es de Aegypto.
19 "To me belongs every first-born male that opens the womb among all your livestock, whether in the herd or in the flock.	19 Omne, quod aperit vulvam generis masculini, meum erit; de cuncto grege tuo tam de bobus quam de ovibus meum erit.
20 The firstling of an ass you shall redeem with one of the flock; if you do not redeem it, you must break its neck. The first-born among your sons you shall redeem. "No one shall appear before me empty-handed.	20 Primogenitum asini redimes ove, sin autem nec pretium pro eo dederis, franges cervicem eius. Primogenitum filiorum tuorum redimes; nec apparebis in conspectu meo vacuus.
21 "For six days you may work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; on that day you must rest even during the seasons of plowing and harvesting.	21 Sex diebus operaberis, die septimo cessabis etiam arare et metere.
22 "You shall keep the feast of Weeks with the first of the wheat harvest; likewise, the feast at the fruit harvest at the close of the year.	22 Sollemnitatem Hebdomadarum facies tibi in primitiis frugum messis tuae triticeae et sollemnitatem Collectae, quando, redeunte anni tempore, cuncta conduntur.
23 Three times a year all your men shall appear before the Lord, the LORD God of Israel.	23 Tribus temporibus anni apparebit omne masculinum tuum in conspectu omnipotentis Domini, Dei Israel.
24 Since I will drive out the nations before you to give you a large territory, there will be no one to covet your land when you go up three times a year to appear before the LORD, your God.	24 Cum enim tulero gentes a facie tua et dilatavero terminos tuos, nullus insidiabitur terrae tuae, ascendente te et apparente in conspectu Domini Dei tui ter in anno.
25 "You shall not offer me the blood of sacrifice with leavened bread, nor shall the sacrifice of the Passover feast be kept overnight for the next day.	25 Non immolabis super fermento sanguinem hostiae meae; neque residebit mane de victima sollemnitatis Paschae.
26 "The choicest first fruits of your soil you shall bring to the house of the LORD, your God. "You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk."	26 Primitias frugum terrae tuae afferes in domum Domini Dei tui. Non coques haedum in lacte matris suae ”.
27 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write down these words, for in accordance with them I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."	27 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: “ Scribe tibi verba haec, quibus et tecum et cum Israel pepigi foedus ”.
28 So Moses stayed there with the LORD for forty days and forty nights, without eating any food or drinking any water, and he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.	28 Fuit ergo ibi cum Domino quadraginta dies et quadraginta noctes; panem non comedit et aquam non bibit et scripsit in tabulis verba foederis, decem verba.
29 As Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the commandments in his hands, he did not know that the skin of his face had become radiant while he conversed with the LORD.	29 Cumque descenderet Moyses de monte Sinai, tenebat duas tabulas testimonii et ignorabat quod resplenderet cutis faciei suae ex consortio sermonis Domini.
30 When Aaron, then, and the other Israelites saw Moses and noticed how radiant the skin of his face had become, they were afraid to come near him.	30 Videntes autem Aaron et filii Israel resplendere cutem faciei Moysi, timuerunt prope accedere;
31 Only after Moses called to them did Aaron and all the rulers of the community come back to him. Moses then spoke to them.	31 vocatique ab eo reversi sunt tam Aaron quam principes synagogae. Et postquam locutus est ad eos,
32 Later on, all the Israelites came up to him, and he enjoined on them all that the LORD had told him on Mount Sinai.	32 venerunt ad eum etiam omnes filii Israel; quibus praecepit cuncta, quae audierat a Domino in monte Sinai.
33 When he finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face.	33 Impletisque sermonibus, posuit velamen super faciem suam,
34 Whenever Moses entered the presence of the LORD to converse with him, he removed the veil until he came out again. On coming out, he would tell the Israelites all that had been commanded.	34 quod ingressus ad Dominum et loquens cum eo auferebat, donec exiret; et tunc loquebatur ad filios Israel omnia, quae sibi fuerant imperata.
35 Then the Israelites would see that the skin of Moses' face was radiant; so he would again put the veil over his face until he went in to converse with the LORD.	35 Qui videbant cutem faciei Moysi resplendere, sed operiebat ille rursus faciem suam, donec ingressus loqueretur cum eo.
