NEW AMERICAN BIBLEVULGATA
1 Moses summoned all Israel and said to them, "Hear, O Israel, the statutes and decrees which I proclaim in your hearing this day, that you may learn them and take care to observe them.1 Vocavitque Moyses omnem Israëlem, et dixit ad eum : Audi, Israël, cæremonias atque judicia, quæ ego loquor in auribus vestris hodie : discite ea, et opere complete.
2 The LORD, our God, made a covenant with us at Horeb;2 Dominus Deus noster pepigit nobiscum fœdus in Horeb.
3 not with our fathers did he make this covenant, but with us, all of us who are alive here this day.3 Non cum patribus nostris iniit pactum, sed nobiscum qui in præsentiarum sumus, et vivimus.
4 The LORD spoke with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire.4 Facie ad faciem locutus est nobis in monte de medio ignis.
5 Since you were afraid of the fire and would not go up the mountain, I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to announce to you these words of the LORD:5 Ego sequester et medius fui inter Dominum et vos in tempore illo, ut annuntiarem vobis verba ejus : timuistis enim ignem, et non ascendistis in montem. Et ait :
6 'I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.6 Ego Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de terra Ægypti, de domo servitutis.
7 You shall not have other gods besides me.7 Non habebis deos alienos in conspectu meo.
8 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;8 Non facies tibi sculptile, nec similitudinem omnium, quæ in cælo sunt desuper, et quæ in terra deorsum, et quæ versantur in aquis sub terra.
9 you shall not bow down before them or worship them. For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishments for their fathers' wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation9 Non adorabis ea, et non coles. Ego enim sum Dominus Deus tuus : Deus æmulator, reddens iniquitatem patrum super filios in tertiam et quartam generationem his qui oderunt me :
10 but bestowing mercy, down to the thousandth generation, on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.10 et faciens misericordiam in multa millia diligentibus me, et custodientibus præcepta mea.
11 '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.11 Non usurpabis nomen Domini Dei tui frustra : quia non erit impunitus qui super re vana nomen ejus assumpserit.
12 'Take care to keep holy the sabbath day as the LORD, your God, commanded you.12 Observa diem sabbati, ut sanctifices eum, sicut præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus.
13 Six days you may labor and do all your work;13 Sex diebus operaberis, et facies omnia opera tua.
14 but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD, your God. No work may be done then, whether by you, or your son or daughter, or your male or female slave, or your ox or ass or any of your beasts, or the alien who lives with you. Your male and female slave should rest as you do.14 Septimus dies sabbati est, id est, requies Domini Dei tui. Non facies in eo quidquam operis tu, et filius tuus, et filia, servus et ancilla, et bos, et asinus, et omne jumentum tuum, et peregrinus qui est intra portas tuas : ut requiescat servus tuus, et ancilla tua, sicut et tu.
15 For remember that you too were once slaves in Egypt, and the LORD, your God, brought you from there with his strong hand and outstretched arm. That is why the LORD, your God, has commanded you to observe the sabbath day.15 Memento quod et ipse servieris in Ægypto, et eduxerit te inde Dominus Deus tuus in manu forti, et brachio extento. Idcirco præcepit tibi ut observares diem sabbati.
16 'Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD, your God, has commanded you, that you may have a long life and prosperity in the land which the LORD, your God, is giving you.16 Honora patrem tuum et matrem, sicut præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus, ut longo vivas tempore, et bene sit tibi in terra, quam Dominus Deus tuus daturus est tibi.
17 'You shall not kill.17 Non occides,
18 'You shall not commit adultery.18 neque mœchaberis,
19 'You shall not steal.19 furtumque non facies :
20 'You shall not bear dishonest witness against your neighbor.20 nec loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
21 'You shall not covet your neighbor's wife. 'You shall not desire your neighbor's house or field, nor his male or female slave, nor his ox or ass, nor anything that belongs to him.'21 Non concupisces uxorem proximi tui : non domum, non agrum, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum, et universa quæ illius sunt.
22 "These words, and nothing more, the LORD spoke with a loud voice to your entire assembly on the mountain from the midst of the fire and the dense cloud. He wrote them upon two tablets of stone and gave them to me.22 Hæc verba locutus est Dominus ad omnem multitudinem vestram in monte de medio ignis et nubis, et caliginis, voce magna, nihil addens amplius : et scripsit ea in duabus tabulis lapideis, quas tradidit mihi.
23 But when you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was ablaze with fire, you came to me in the person of all your tribal heads and elders,23 Vos autem postquam audistis vocem de medio tenebrarum, et montem ardere vidistis, accessistis ad me omnes principes tribuum et majores natu, atque dixistis :
24 and said, 'The LORD, our God, has indeed let us see his glory and his majesty! We have heard his voice from the midst of the fire and have found out today that a man can still live after God has spoken with him.24 Ecce ostendit nobis Dominus Deus noster majestatem et magnitudinem suam : vocem ejus audivimus de medio ignis, et probavimus hodie, quod loquente Deo cum homine, vixerit homo.
25 But why should we die now? Surely this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of the LORD, our God, any more, we shall die.25 Cur ergo moriemur, et devorabit nos ignis hic maximus ? si enim audierimus ultra vocem Domini Dei nostri, moriemur.
26 For what mortal has heard, as we have, the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of fire, and survived?26 Quid est omnis caro, ut audiat vocem Dei viventis, qui de medio ignis loquitur sicut nos audivimus, et possit vivere ?
27 Go closer, you, and hear all that the LORD, our God, will say, and then tell us what the LORD, our God, tells you; we will listen and obey.'27 Tu magis accede : et audi cuncta quæ dixerit Dominus Deus noster tibi : loquerisque ad nos, et nos audientes faciemus ea.
28 "The LORD heard your words as you were speaking to me and said to me, 'I have heard the words these people have spoken to you, which are all well said.28 Quod cum audisset Dominus, ait ad me : Audivi vocem verborum populi hujus quæ locuti sunt tibi : bene omnia sunt locuti.
29 Would that they might always be of such a mind, to fear me and to keep all my commandments! Then they and their descendants would prosper forever.29 Quis det talem eos habere mentem, ut timeant me, et custodiant universa mandata mea in omni tempore, ut bene sit eis et filiis eorum in sempiternum ?
30 Go, tell them to return to their tents.30 Vade et dic eis : Revertimini in tentoria vestra.
31 Then you wait here near me and I will give you all the commandments, the statutes and decrees you must teach them, that they may observe them in the land which I am giving them to possess.'31 Tu vero hic sta mecum, et loquar tibi omnia mandata mea, et cæremonias atque judicia : quæ docebis eos, ut faciant ea in terra, quam dabo illis in possessionem.
32 "Be careful, therefore, to do as the LORD, your God, has commanded you, not turning aside to the right or to the left,32 Custodite igitur et facite quæ præcepit Dominus Deus vobis : non declinabitis neque ad dexteram, neque ad sinistram :
33 but following exactly the way prescribed for you by the LORD, your God, that you may live and prosper, and may have long life in the land which you are to occupy.33 sed per viam, quam præcepit Dominus Deus vester, ambulabitis, ut vivatis, et bene sit vobis, et protelentur dies in terra possessionis vestræ.
