|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Thou shalt not receive the voice of a lie: neither shalt thou join thy hand to bear false witness for a wicked person. | Non suscipies vocem mendacii, nec iunges manum tuam ut pro impio dicas falsum testimonium. | Οὐ παραδέξῃ ἀκοὴν ματαίαν· οὐ συγκαταθήσῃ μετὰ τοῦ ἀδίκου γενέσθαι μάρτυς ἄδικος. |
| 2 | Thou shalt not follow the multitude to do evil: neither shalt thou yield in judgment, to the opinion of the most part, to stray from the truth. | Non sequeris turbam ad faciendum malum: nec in iudicio, plurimorum acquiesces sententiae, ut a vero devies. | Οὐκ ἔσῃ μετὰ πλειόνων ἐπὶ κακίᾳ· οὐ προστεθήσῃ μετὰ πλήθους ἐκκλῖναι μετὰ τῶν πλειόνων, ὥστε ἑκκλεῖσαι κρίσιν. |
| 3 | Neither shalt thou favour a poor man in judgment. | Pauperis quoque non misereberis in iudicio. | Καὶ πένητα οὐκ ἐλεήσεις ἐν κρίσει. |
| 4 | If thou meet thy enemy’s ox or ass going astray, bring it back to him. | Si occurreris bovi inimici tui, aut asino erranti, reduc ad eum. | Ἐὰν δὲ συναντήσῃς τῷ βοῒ τοῦ ἐχθροῦ σου, ἢ τῷ ὑποζυγίῳ αὐτοῦ πλανωμένοις, ἀποστρέψας ἀποδώσεις αὐτῷ. |
| 5 | If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lie underneath his burden, thou shalt not pass by, but shalt lift him up with him. | Si videris asinum odientis te iacere sub onere, non pertransibis, sed sublevabis cum eo. | Ἐὰν δὲ ἴδῃς τὸ ὑποζύγιον τοῦ ἐχθροῦ σου πεπτωκὸς ὑπὸ τὸν γόμον αὐτοῦ, οὐ παρελεύσῃ αὐτὸ, ἀλλὰ συναρεῖς αὐτὸ μετʼ αὐτοῦ. |
| 6 | Thou shalt not go aside in the poor man’s judgment. | Non declinabis in iudicium pauperis. | Οὐ διαστρέψεις κρίμα πένητος ἐν κρίσει αὐτοῦ. |
| 7 | Thou shalt fly lying. The innocent and just person thou shalt not put to death: because I abhor the wicked. | Mendacium fugies. Insontem et iustum non occides: quia aversor impium. | Ἀπὸ παντὸς ῥήματος ἀδίκου ἀποστήσῃ· ἀθῷον καὶ δίκαιον οὐκ ἀποκτενεῖς· καὶ οὐ δικαιώσεις τὸν ἀσεβῆ ἕνεκεν δώρων. |
| 8 | Neither shalt thou take bribes, which even blind the wise, and pervert the words of the just. | Nec accipies munera, quae etiam excaecant prudentes, et subvertunt verba iustorum. | Καὶ δῶρα οὐ λήψῃ· τὰ γὰρ δῶρα ἐκτυφλοῖ ὀφθαλμοὺς βλεπόντων, καὶ λυμαῖνεται ῥήματα δίκαια. |
| 9 | Thou shalt not molest a stranger, for you know the hearts of strangers: for you also were strangers in the land of Egypt. | Peregrino molestus non eris. Scitis enim advenarum animas: quia et ipsi peregrini fuistis in terra Aegypti. | Καὶ προσήλυτον οὐ θλίψετε· ὑμεῖς γὰρ οἴδατε τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ προσηλύτου· αὐτοὶ γὰρ προσήλυτοι ἦτε ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ. |
| 10 | Six years thou shalt sow thy ground, and shalt gather the corn thereof. | Sex annis seminabis terram tuam, et congregabis fruges eius: | Ἓξ ἔτη σπερεῖς τὴν γῆν σου, καὶ συνάξεις τὰ γεννήματα αὐτῆς. |
| 11 | But the seventh year thou shalt let it alone, and suffer it to rest, that the poor of thy people may eat, and whatsoever shall be left, let the beasts of the field eat it: so shalt thou do with thy vineyard and thy oliveyard. | anno autem septimo dimittes eam, et requiescere facies, ut comedant pauperes populi tui: et quidquid reliquum fuerit, edant bestiae agri: ita facies in vinea et in oliveto tuo. | Τῷ δὲ ἑβδόμῳ ἄφεσιν ποιήσεις, καὶ ἀνήσεις αὐτὴν, καὶ ἔδονται οἱ πτωχοὶ τοῦ ἔθνους σου· τὰ δὲ ὑπολειπόμενα ἔδεται τὰ ἄγρια θηρία· οὕτως ποιήσεις τὸν ἀμπελῶνά σου, καὶ τὸν ἐλαιῶνά σου. |
| 12 | Six days thou shalt work: the seventh day thou shalt cease, that thy ox and thy ass may rest: and the son of thy handmaid and the stranger may be refreshed. | Sex diebus operaberis: septimo die cessabis, ut requiescat bos et asinus tuus, et refrigeretur filius ancillae tuae, et advena. | Ἓξ ἡμέρας ποιήσεις τὰ ἔργα σου, τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ, ἀνάπαυσις· ἵνα ἀναπαύσηται ὁ βοῦς σου, καὶ τὸ ὑποζύγιόν σου, καὶ ἵνα ἀναψύξῃ ὁ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος. |
| 13 | Keep all things that I have said to you. And by the name of strange gods you shall not swear, neither shall it be heard out of your mouth. | Omnia quae dixi vobis, custodite. Et per nomen externorum deorum non iurabitis, neque audietur ex ore vestro. | Πάντα ὅσα εἴρηκα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, φυλάξασθε· καὶ ὄνομα θεῶν ἑτέρων οὐκ ἀναμνησθήσεσθε, οὐδὲ μὴ ἀκουσθῇ ἐκ τοῦ στόματος ὑμῶν. |
| 14 | Three times every year you shall celebrate feasts to me. | Tribus vicibus per singulos annos mihi festa celebrabitis. | Τρεῖς καιροὺς τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἑορτάσατέ μοι. |
| 15 | Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread. Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month of new corn, when thou didst come forth out of Egypt: thou shalt not appear empty before me. | Solemnitatem azymorum custodies. Septem diebus comedes azyma, sicut praecepi tibi, tempore mensis novorum, quando egressus es de Aegypto: non apparebis in conspectu meo vacuus. | Τὴν ἑορτὴν τῶν ἀζύμων φυλάξασθε ποιεῖν· ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἔδεσθε ἄζυμα, καθάπερ ἐνετειλάμην σοι κατὰ τὸν καιρὸν τοῦ μηνὸς τῶν νέων· ἐν γὰρ αὐτῷ ἐξῆλθες ἐξ Αἰγύπτου· οὐκ ὀφθήσῃ ἐνώπίον μου κενός. |
| 16 | And the feast of the harvest of the firstfruits of thy work, whatsoever thou hast sown in the field. The feast also in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in all thy corn out of the field. | Et solemnitatem messis primitivorum operis tui, quaecumque seminaveris in agro: solemnitatem quoque in exitu anni, quando congregaveris omnes fruges tuas de agro. | Καὶ ἑορτὴν θερισμοῦ πρωτογεννημάτων ποιήσεις τῶν ἔργων σου, ὧν ἐὰν σπείρῃς ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ σου, καὶ ἑορτὴν συντελείας ἐπʼ ἐξόδου τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ τῶν ἔργων σου τῶν ἐκ τοῦ ἀγροῦ σου. |
| 17 | Thrice a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God. | Ter in anno apparebit omne masculinum tuum coram Domino Deo tuo. | Τρεῖς καιροὺς τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ὀφθήσεται πᾶν ἀρσενικόν σου ἐνώπιον Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ σου. |
| 18 | Thou shalt not sacrifice the blood of my victim upon leaven, neither shall the fat of my solemnity remain until the morning. | Non immolabis super fermento sanguinem victimae meae, nec remanebit adeps solemnitatis meae usque mane. | Ὅταν γὰρ ἐκβάλω τὰ ἔθνη ἀπὸ προσώπου σου, καὶ ἐμπλατύνω τὰ ὅριά σου, οὐ θύσεις ἐπὶ ζύμῃ αἷμα θυμιάματός μου, οὐδὲ μὴ κοιμηθῇ στέαρ τῆς ἑορτῆς μου ἕως πρωΐ. |
| 19 | Thou shalt carry the firstfruits of the corn of thy ground to the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of his dam. | Primitias frugum terrae tuae deferes in domum Domini Dei tui. Non coques haedum in lacte matris suae. | Τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν πρωτογενημάτων τῆς γνς σου εἰσοίσεις εἰς τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ σου· οὐχ ἑψήσεις ἄρνα ἐν γάλακτι μητρὸς αὐτοῦ. |
| 20 | Behold I will send my angel, who shall go before thee, and keep thee in thy journey, and bring thee into the place that I have prepared. | Ecce ego mittam angelum meum, qui praecedat te, et custodiat in via, et introducat in locum quem paravi. | Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, ἵνα φυλάξῃ σε ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ, ὅπως εἰσαγάγῃ σε εἰς τὴν γῆν, ἣν ἡτοίμασά σοι. |
| 21 | Take notice of him, and hear his voice, and do not think him one to be contemned: for he will not forgive when thou hast sinned, and my name is in him. | Observa eum, et audi vocem eius, nec contemnendum putes: quia non dimittet cum peccaveris, et est nomen meum in illo. | Πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ, καὶ εἰσάκουε αὐτοῦ, καὶ μὴ ἀπείθει αὐτῷ, οὐ γὰρ μὴ ὑποστείληταί σε· τὸ γὰρ ὄνομά μου ἐστὶν ἐπʼ αὐτῷ. |
| 22 | But if thou wilt hear his voice, and do all that I speak, I will be an enemy to thy enemies, and will afflict them that afflict thee. | Quod si audieris vocem eius, et feceris omnia quae loquor, inimicus ero inimicis tuis, et affligam affligentes te. | Ἐὰν ἀκοῇ ἀκούσητε τῆς ἐμῆς φωνῆς, καὶ ποιήσῃς πάντα ὅσα ἂν ἐντείλωμαί σοι, καὶ φυλάξητε τὴν διαθήκην μου, ἔσεσθέ μοι λαὸς περιούσιος ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν· ἐμὴ γάρ ἐστι πᾶσα ἡ γῆ· ὑμεῖς δὲ ἔσεσθέ μοι βασίλειον ἱεράτευμα, καὶ ἔθνος ἅγιον· ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα ἐρεῖς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, ἐὰν ἀκοῇ ἀκούσητε τῆς φωνῆς μου, καὶ ποιήσητε πάντα ὅσα ἂν εἴπω σοι, ἐχθρεύσω τοῖς ἐχθροῖς σου, καὶ ἀντικείσομαι τοῖς ἀντικειμένοις σοι. |
| 23 | And my angel shall go before thee, and shall bring thee in unto the Amorrhite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, whom I will destroy. | Praecedetque te angelus meus, et introducet te ad Amorrhaeum, et Hethaeum, et Pherezaeum, Chananaeumque, et Hevaeum, et Iebusaeum, quos ego conteram. | Πορεύσεται γὰρ ὁ ἄγγελός μου ἡγούμενός σου, καὶ εἰσάξει σε πρὸς τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον, καὶ Χετταῖον, καὶ Φερεζαῖον, καὶ Χαναναῖον, καὶ Γεργεσαῖον, καὶ Εὑαῖον, καὶ Ἰεβουσαῖον, καὶ ἐκτρίψω αὐτούς. |
| 24 | Thou shalt not adore their gods, nor serve them. Thou shalt not do their works, but shalt destroy them, and break their statues. | Non adorabis deos eorum, nec coles eos: non facies opera eorum, sed destrues eos, et confringes statuas eorum. | Οὐ προσκυνήσεις τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν, οὐδὲ μὴ λατρεύσῃς αὐτοῖς· οὐ ποιήσεις κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν· ἀλλὰ καθαιρέσει καθελεῖς, καὶ συντρίβων συντρίψεις τὰς στήλας αὐτῶν. |
| 25 | And you shall serve the Lord your God, that I may bless your bread and your waters, and may take away sickness from the midst of thee. | Servietisque Domino Deo vestro, ut benedicam panibus tuis et aquis, et auferam infirmitatem de medio tui. | Καὶ λατρεύσεις Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ σου· καὶ εὐλογήσω τὸν ἄρτον σου καὶ τὸν οἶνόν σου καὶ τὸ ὕδωρ σου, καὶ ἀποστρέψω μαλακίαν ἀφʼ ὑμῶν. |
| 26 | There shall not be one fruitless nor barren in thy land: I will fill the number of thy days. | Non erit infoecunda, nec sterilis in terra tua: numerum dierum tuorum implebo. | Οὐκ ἔσται ἄγονος, οὐδὲ στεῖρα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς σου· τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῶν ἡμερῶν σου ἀναπληρῶν ἀναπληρώσω. |
| 27 | I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come: and will turn the backs of all thy enemies before thee. | Terrorem meum mittam in praecursum tuum, et occidam omnem populum, ad quem ingredieris: cunctorumque inimicorum tuorum coram te terga vertam: | Καὶ τὸν φόβον ἀποστελῶ ἡγούμενόν σου, καὶ ἐκστήσω πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, εἰς οὓς σὺ εἰσπορεύῃ εἰς αὐτούς· καὶ δώσω πάντας τοὺς ὑπεναντίους σου φυγάδας. |
| 28 | Sending out hornets before, that shall drive away the Hevite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, before thou come in. | emittens crabrones prius, qui fugabunt Hevaeum, et Chananaeum, et Hethaeum, antequam introëas. | Καὶ ἀποστελῶ τὰς σφηκίας προτέρας σου· καὶ ἐκβαλεῖς τοὺς Ἀμοῤῥαίους, καὶ τοὺς Εὑαίους, καὶ τοὺς Χαναναίους, καὶ τοὺς Χετταίους ἀπὸ σοῦ. |
| 29 | I will not cast them out from thy face in one year: lest the land be brought into a wilderness, and the beasts multiply against thee. | Non eiiciam eos a facie tua anno uno: ne terra in solitudinem redigatur, et crescant contra te bestiae. | Οὐκ ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἐν ἐνιαυτῷ ἑνὶ, ἵνα μὴ γένηται ἡ γῆ ἔρημος, καὶ πολλὰ γένηται ἐπὶ σὲ τὰ θηρία τῆς γῆς. |
| 30 | By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, till thou be increased, and dost possess the land. | Paulatim expellam eos de conspectu tuo, donec augearis, et possideas terram. | Κατὰ μικρὸν ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ σοῦ, ἕως ἂν αὐξηθῇς καὶ κληρονομήσῃς τὴν γῆν. |
| 31 | And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea to the sea of the Palestines, and from the desert to the river: I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hands, and will drive them out from before you. | Ponam autem terminos tuos a mari Rubro usque ad mare Palaestinorum, et a deserto usque ad fluvium: tradam in manibus vestris habitatores terrae, et eiiciam eos de conspectu vestro. | Καὶ θήσω τὰ ὅριά σου ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης, ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς Φυλιστιείμ· καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου, ἕως τοῦ μεγάλου ποταμοῦ Εὐφράτου· καὶ παραδώσω εἰς τὰς χεῖρας ὑμῶν τοὺς ἐγκαθημένους ἐν τῇ γῇ, καὶ ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ σοῦ. |
| 32 | Thou shalt not enter into league with them, nor with their gods. | Non inibis cum eis foedus, nec cum diis eorum. | Οὐ συγκαταθήσῃ αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν διαθήκην. |
| 33 | Let them not dwell in thy land, lest perhaps thy make thee sin against me, if thou serve their god: which undoubtedly will be a scandal to thee. | Non habitent in terra tua, ne forte peccare te faciant in me, si servieris diis eorum: quod tibi certe erit in scandalum. | Καὶ οὐκ ἐνκαθήσονται ἐν τῇ γῇ σου, ἵνα μὴ ἁμαρτεῖν σε ποιήσωσι πρὸς μέ· ἐὰν γὰρ δουλεύσῃς τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν, οὗτοι ἔσονταί σοι πρόσκομμα. |
