Deuteronomy 5

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 Moses cal ed al Israel together and said to them, 'Listen, Israel, to the laws and customs that I proclaimto you today. Learn them and take care to observe them.	1 Vocavitque Moyses omnem Israelem et dixit ad eos: “ Audi, Israel, praecepta atque iudicia, quae ego loquor in auribus vestris hodie; discite ea et opere complete.
2 'Yahweh our God made a covenant with us at Horeb.	2 Dominus Deus noster pepigit nobiscum foedus in Horeb.
3 Yahweh made this covenant not with our ancestors, but with us, with all of us alive here today.	3 Non cum patribus nostris iniit pactum hoc sed nobiscum, qui in praesentiarum hic sumus, omnibus nobis, qui vivimus.
4 On the mountain, from the heart of the fire, Yahweh spoke to you face to face,	4 Facie ad faciem locutus est vobis in monte de medio ignis;
5 while I stood between you and Yahweh to let you know what Yahweh was saying, since you were afraidof the fire and had not gone up the mountain. He said:	5 ego sequester et medius fui inter Dominum et vos in tempore illo, ut annuntiarem vobis verba eius; timuistis enim ignem et non ascendistis in montem. Et ait:
6 ' "I am Yahweh your God who brought you out of Egypt, out of the place of slave-labour.	6 “Ego Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de terra Aegypti, de domo servitutis.
7 ' "You will have no gods other than me.	7 Non habebis deos alienos in conspectu meo.
8 ' "You must not make yourselves any image or any likeness of anything in heaven above or on earthbeneath or in the waters under the earth;	8 Non facies tibi sculptile nec similitudinem omnium, quae in caelo sunt desuper et quae in terra deorsum et quae versantur in aquis sub terra.
9 you must not bow down to these gods or serve them. For I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God and Ipunish the parents' fault in the children, the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren, among those who hateme;	9 Non adorabis ea et non coles: Ego enim sum Dominus Deus tuus, Deus aemulator, reddens iniquitatem patrum super filios in tertiam et quartam generationem his, qui oderunt me,
10 but I show faithful love to thousands, to those who love me and keep my commandments.	10 et faciens misericordiam in multa milia diligentibus me et custodientibus praecepta mea.
11 ' "You must not misuse the name of Yahweh your God, for Yahweh wil not leave unpunished anyonewho uses his name for what is false.	11 Non usurpabis nomen Domini Dei tui frustra, quia non erit impunitus, qui super re vana nomen eius assumpserit.
12 ' "Observe the Sabbath day and keep it holy, as Yahweh your God has commanded you.	12 Observa diem sabbati, ut sanctifices eum, sicut praecepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus.
13 Labour for six days, doing all your work,	13 Sex diebus operaberis et facies omnia opera tua.
14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath for Yahweh your God. You must not do any work that day, neitheryou, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your servants -- male or female -- nor your ox, nor your donkey, norany of your animals, nor the foreigner who has made his home with you;	14 Septimus dies sabbatum est Domino Deo tuo. Non facies in eo quidquam operis tu et filius tuus et filia, servus et ancilla et bos et asinus et omne iumentum tuum et peregrinus tuus, qui est intra portas tuas, ut requiescat servus tuus et ancilla tua sicut et tu.
15 so that your servants, male and female, may rest, as you do. Remember that you were once a slave inEgypt, and that Yahweh your God brought you out of there with mighty hand and outstretched arm; this is whyYahweh your God has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.	15 Memento quod et ipse servieris in Aegypto, et eduxerit te inde Dominus Deus tuus in manu forti et brachio extento: idcirco praecepit tibi, ut observares diem sabbati.
16 ' "Honour your father and your mother, as Yahweh your God has commanded you, so that you mayhave long life and may prosper in the country which Yahweh your God is giving you.	16 Honora patrem tuum et matrem, sicut praecepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus, ut longo vivas tempore et bene sit tibi in terra, quam Dominus Deus tuus daturus est tibi.
17 ' "You must not kil .	17 Non occides.
18 ' "You must not commit adultery.	18 Neque moechaberis.
19 ' "You must not steal.	19 Furtumque non facies.
20 ' "You must not give false evidence against your fel ow.	20 Nec loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium.
21 ' "You must not set your heart on your neighbour's spouse, you must not set your heart on yourneighbour's house, or field, or servant-man or woman -- or ox, or donkey or any of your neighbour'spossessions."	21 Nec concupisces uxorem proximi tui. Nec desiderabis domum proximi tui, non agrum, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non asinum et universa, quae illius sunt”.
22 'These were the words Yahweh spoke to you when you were al assembled on the mountain.Thunderously, he spoke to you from the heart of the fire, in cloud and thick darkness. He added nothing, butwrote them on two tablets of stone which he gave to me.	22 Haec 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 'Now, having heard this voice coming out of the darkness, while the mountain was al on fire, youcame to me, al of you, heads of tribes and elders,	23 Vos autem, postquam audistis vocem de medio tenebrarum et montem ardere vidistis, accessistis ad me omnes principes tribuum et maiores natu
24 and said, "Yahweh our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voicefrom the heart of the fire. Today we have seen that God can speak with a human being and that person stil live.	24 atque dixistis: “Ecce ostendit nobis Dominus Deus noster maiestatem et magnitudinem suam; vocem eius audivimus de medio ignis et probavimus hodie quod, loquente Deo cum homine, vixerit homo.
25 So why should we expose ourselves to death again? For this great fire might devour us if we go onlistening to the voice of Yahweh our God, and then we should die.	25 Nunc autem cur moriemur, et devorabit nos ignis hic maximus? Si enim audierimus ultra vocem Domini Dei nostri, moriemur.
26 For what creature of flesh could possibly live after hearing, as we have heard, the voice of the livingGod speaking from the heart of the fire?	26 Quid est omnis caro, ut audiat vocem Dei viventis, qui de medio ignis loquitur, sicut nos audivimus, et possit vivere?
27 Go nearer yourself and listen to everything that Yahweh our God may say, and then tel us everything that Yahweh our God has told you; we shal listen and put it into practice!"	27 Tu magis accede et audi cuncta, quae dixerit Dominus Deus noster, et tu loqueris ad nos cuncta, quae dixerit Dominus Deus noster tibi, et nos audientes faciemus ea”.
28 'Yahweh heard what you were saying to me, and he then said to me, "I have heard what these peopleare saying. Everything they have said is well said.	28 Quod cum audisset Dominus, ait ad me: “Audivi vocem verborum populi huius, quae locuti sunt tibi: bene omnia sunt locuti.
29 If only their heart were always so, set on fearing me and on keeping my commandments, so that theyand their children might prosper for ever!	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 and tell them to go back to their tents.	30 Vade et dic eis: Revertimini in tentoria vestra.
31 But you yourself stay here with me, and I shal tel you all the commandments, the laws and thecustoms which you are to teach them and which they are to observe in the country which I am giving them astheir possession."	31 Tu vero, hic sta mecum, et loquar tibi omnia mandata et praecepta atque iudicia, quae docebis eos, ut faciant ea in terra, quam dabo illis in possessionem”.
32 'Keep them and put them into practice: such is Yahweh's command to you. Stray neither to right nor toleft.	32 Custodite igitur et facite, quae praecepit Dominus Deus vester vobis; non declinabitis neque ad dexteram neque ad sinistram,
33 Fol ow the whole way that Yahweh has marked for you, and you wil survive to prosper and live long inthe country which you are going to possess.'	33 sed per totam viam, quam praecepit Dominus Deus vester, ambulabitis, ut vivatis, et bene sit vobis, et protelentur dies in terra possessionis vestrae.
