Deuteronomy 6

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBLIA
1 “These are the precepts and ceremonies, as well as the judgments, which the Lord your God has commanded that I teach to you, which you shall do in the land to which you will travel in order to possess it.	1 Estos son los mandamientos, preceptos y normas que Yahveh vuestro Dios ha mandado enseñaros para que los pongáis en práctica en la tierra a la que vais a pasar para tomarla en posesión,
2 So may you fear the Lord your God, and keep all his commandments and precepts, which I am entrusting to you, and to your sons and grandsons, all the days of your life, so that your days may be prolonged.	2 a fin de que temas a Yahveh tu Dios, guardando todos los preceptos y mandamientos que yo te prescribo hoy, tú, tu hijo y tu nieto, todos los días de tu vida, y así se prolonguen tus días.
3 Listen and observe, O Israel, so that you may do just as the Lord has instructed you, and it may be well with you, and you may be multiplied all the more, for the Lord, the God of your fathers, has promised you a land flowing with milk and honey.	3 Escucha, Israel; cuida de practicar lo que te hará feliz y por lo que te multiplicarás, como te ha dicho Yahveh, el Dios de tus padres, en la tierra que mana leche y miel.
4 Listen, O Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord.	4 Escucha, Israel: Yahveh nuestro Dios es el único Yahveh.
5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength.	5 Amarás a Yahveh tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu fuerza.
6 And these words, which I instruct to you this day, shall be in your heart.	6 Queden en tu corazón estas palabras que yo te dicto hoy.
7 And you shall explain them to your sons. And you shall meditate upon them sitting in your house, and walking on a journey, when lying down and when rising up.	7 Se la repetirás a tus hijos, les hablarás de ellas tanto si estás en casa como si vas de viaje, así acostado como levantado;
8 And you shall bind them like a sign on your hand, and they shall be placed and shall move between your eyes.	8 las atarás a tu mano como una señal, y serán como una insignia entre tus ojos;
9 And you shall write them at the threshold and on the doors of your house.	9 las escribirás en las jambas de tu casa y en tus puertas.
10 And when the Lord your God will have led you into the land, about which he swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and when he will have given to you great and excellent cities, which you did not build;	10 Cuando Yahveh tu Dios te haya introducido en la tierra que a tus padres Abraham, Isaac y Jacob juró que te daría: ciudades grandes y prósperas que tú no edificaste,
11 houses full of goods, which you did not amass; cisterns, which you did not dig; vineyards and olive groves, which you did not plant;	11 casas llenas de toda clase de bienes, que tú no llenaste, cisternas excavadas que tú no excavaste, viñedos y olivares que tú no plantaste, cuando hayas comido y te hayas saciado,
12 and when you will have eaten and been satisfied:	12 cuida de no olvidarte de Yahveh que te sacó del país de Egipto, de la casa de servidumbre.
13 take care diligently, lest you forget the Lord, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude. You shall fear the Lord your God, and you shall serve him alone, and you shall swear by his name.	13 A Yahveh tu Dios temerás, a él le servirás, por su nombre jurarás.
14 You shall not go after the strange gods of all the Gentiles, who are around you.	14 No vayáis en pos de otros dioses, de los dioses de los pueblos que os rodean,
15 For the Lord your God is a jealous God in your midst. Otherwise, at sometime, the fury of the Lord your God may be enraged against you, and he may take you away from the face of the earth.	15 porque un Dios celoso es Yahveh tu Dios que está en medio de ti. La ira de Yahveh tu Dios se encendería contra ti y te haría desaparecer de la haz de la tierra.
16 You shall not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted him in the place of temptation.	16 No tentaréis a Yahveh vuestro Dios, como le habéis tentado en Massá.
17 Keep the precepts of the Lord your God, as well as the testimonies and ceremonies, which he has instructed to you.	17 Guardaréis puntualmente los mandamientos de Yahveh vuestro Dios, los estatutos y preceptos que te ha prescrito,
18 And do what is pleasing and good in the sight of the Lord, so that it may be well with you, and so that, when you enter, you may possess the excellent land, about which the Lord swore to your fathers	18 harás lo que es justo y bueno a los ojos de Yahveh para que seas feliz y llegues a tomar posesión de esa tierra buena de la que Yahveh juró a tus padres
19 that he would wipe away all your enemies before you, just as he has spoken.	19 que arrojaría a todos tus enemigos ante ti, como te ha dicho Yahveh.
20 And when your son will ask you tomorrow, saying: ‘What do these testimonies and ceremonies and judgments mean, which the Lord our God has entrusted to us?’	20 Cuando el día de mañana te pregunte tu hijo: «¿Qué son estos estatutos, estos preceptos y estas normas que Yahveh nuestro Dios os ha prescrito?»,
21 You shall say to him: ‘We were servants of Pharaoh in Egypt, and the Lord led us away from Egypt with a strong hand.	21 dirás a tu hijo: «Eramos esclavos de Faraón en Egipto, y Yahveh nos sacó de Egipto con mano fuerte.
22 And he wrought signs and wonders, great and very grievous, in Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his house, in our sight.	22 Yahveh realizó a nuestros propios ojos señales y prodigios grandes y terribles en Egipto, contre Faraón y toda su casa.
23 And he led us away from that place, so that he might lead us in and give us the land, about which he swore to our fathers.	23 Y a nosotros nos sacó de allí para conducirnos y entregarnos la tierra que había prometido bajo juramento a nuestros padres.
24 And the Lord instructed us that we should do all these ordinances, and that we should fear the Lord our God, so that it may be well with us all the days of our life, just as it is today.	24 Y Yahveh nos mandó que pusiéramos en práctica todos estos preceptos, temiendo a Yahveh nuestro Dios, para que fuéramos felices siempre y nos permitiera vivir como el día de hoy.
25 And he will be merciful to us, if we keep and perform all his precepts, in the sight of the Lord our God, just as he has commanded us.’ ”	25 Tal será nuestra justicia: cuidar de poner en práctica todos estos mandamientos ante Yahveh nuestro Dios, como él nos ha prescrito».
