Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1When the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, which thou art going in to possess, and shall have destroyed many nations before thee, the Hethite, and the Gergezite, and the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, seven nations much more numerous than thou art, and stronger than thou:
1「耶和華－你上帝領你進入要得為業之地，從你面前趕出許多國民，就是 赫 人、 革迦撒 人、 亞摩利 人、 迦南 人、 比利洗 人、 希未 人、 耶布斯 人，共七國的民，都比你強大。
2And the Lord thy God shall have delivered them to thee, thou shalt utterly destroy them. Thou shalt make no league with them, nor shew mercy to them:
2耶和華－你上帝將他們交給你擊殺，那時你要把他們滅絕淨盡，不可與他們立約，也不可憐恤他們。
3Neither shalt thou make marriages with them. Thou shalt not give thy daughter to his son, nor take his daughter for thy son:
3不可與他們結親。不可將你的女兒嫁他們的兒子，也不可叫你的兒子娶他們的女兒；
4For she will turn away thy son from following me, that he may rather serve strange gods, and the wrath of the Lord will be kindled, and will quickly destroy thee.
4因為他必使你兒子轉離不跟從主，去事奉別神，以致耶和華的怒氣向你們發作，就速速地將你們滅絕。
5But thus rather shall you deal with them: Destroy their altars, and break their statues, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven things.
5你們卻要這樣待他們：拆毀他們的祭壇，打碎他們的柱像，砍下他們的木偶，用火焚燒他們雕刻的偶像。
6Because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God. The Lord thy God hath chosen thee, to be his peculiar people of all peoples that are upon the earth.
6因為你歸耶和華－你上帝為聖潔的民；耶和華－你上帝從地上的萬民中揀選你，特作自己的子民。
7Not because you surpass all nations in number, is the Lord joined unto you, and hath chosen you, for you are the fewest of any people:
7「耶和華專愛你們，揀選你們，並非因你們的人數多於別民，原來你們的人數在萬民中是最少的。
8But because the Lord hath loved you, and hath kept his oath, which he swore to your fathers: and hath brought you out with a strong hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, out of the hand of Pharao the king of Egypt.
8只因耶和華愛你們，又因要守他向你們列祖所起的誓，就用大能的手領你們出來，從為奴之家救贖你們脫離 埃及 王法老的手。
9And thou shalt know that the Lord thy God, he is a strong and faithful God, keeping his covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments, unto a thousand generations:
9所以，你要知道耶和華－你的上帝，他是上帝，是信實的上帝；向愛他、守他誡命的人守約，施慈愛，直到千代；
10And repaying forthwith them that hate him, so as to destroy them, without further delay immediately rendering to them what they deserve.
10向恨他的人當面報應他們，將他們滅絕。凡恨他的人必報應他們，決不遲延。
11Keep therefore the precepts and ceremonies and judgments, which I command thee this day to do.
11所以，你要謹守遵行我今日所吩咐你的誡命、律例、典章。」
12If after thou hast heard these judgments, thou keep and do them, the Lord thy God will also keep his covenant to thee, and the mercy which he swore to thy fathers:
12「你們果然聽從這些典章，謹守遵行，耶和華－你上帝就必照他向你列祖所起的誓守約，施慈愛。
13And he will love thee and multiply thee, and will bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy vintage, thy oil, and thy herds, and the flocks of thy sheep upon the land, for which he swore to thy fathers that he would give it thee.
13他必愛你，賜福與你，使你人數增多，也必在他向你列祖起誓應許給你的地上賜福與你身所生的，地所產的，並你的五穀、新酒，和油，以及牛犢、羊羔。
14Blessed shalt thou be among all people. No one shall be barren among you of either sex, neither of men nor cattle.
14你必蒙福勝過萬民；你們的男女沒有不能生養的，牲畜也沒有不能生育的。
15The Lord will take away from thee all sickness: and the grievous infirmities of Egypt, which thou knowest, he will not bring upon thee, but upon thy enemies.
15耶和華必使一切的病症離開你；你所知道 埃及 各樣的惡疾，他不加在你身上，只加在一切恨你的人身上。
16Thou shalt consume all the people, which the Lord thy God will deliver to thee. Thy eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serve their gods, lest they be thy ruin.
16耶和華－你上帝所要交給你的一切人民，你要將他們除滅；你眼不可顧惜他們。你也不可事奉他們的神，因這必成為你的網羅。
17If thou say in thy heart: These nations are more than I, how shall I be able to destroy them?
17「你若心裏說，這些國的民比我更多，我怎能趕出他們呢？
18Fear not, but remember what the Lord thy God did to Pharao and to all the Egyptians,
18你不要懼怕他們，要牢牢記念耶和華－你上帝向法老和 埃及 全地所行的事，
19The exceeding great plagues, which thy eyes saw, and the signs and wonders, and the strong hand, and the stretched out arm, with which the Lord thy God brought thee out: so will he do to all the people, whom thou fearest.
19就是你親眼所看見的大試驗、神蹟、奇事，和大能的手，並伸出來的膀臂，都是耶和華－你上帝領你出來所用的。耶和華－你上帝必照樣待你所懼怕的一切人民。
20Moreover the Lord thy God will send also hornets among them, until he destroy and consume all that have escaped thee, and could hide themselves.
20並且耶和華－你上帝必打發黃蜂飛到他們中間，直到那剩下而藏躲的人從你面前滅亡。
21Thou shalt not fear them, because the Lord thy God is in the midst of thee, a God mighty and terrible:
21你不要因他們驚恐，因為耶和華－你上帝在你們中間是大而可畏的上帝。
22He will consume these nations in thy sight by little and little and by degrees. Thou wilt not be able to destroy them altogether: lest perhaps the beasts of the earth should increase upon thee.
22耶和華－你上帝必將這些國的民從你面前漸漸趕出；你不可把他們速速滅盡，恐怕野地的獸多起來害你。
23But the Lord thy God shall deliver them in thy sight: and shall slay them until they be utterly destroyed.
23耶和華－你上帝必將他們交給你，大大地擾亂他們，直到他們滅絕了；
24And he shall deliver their kings into thy hands, and thou shalt destroy their names from under Heaven: no man shall be able to resist thee, until thou destroy them.
24又要將他們的君王交在你手中，你就使他們的名從天下消滅。必無一人能在你面前站立得住，直到你將他們滅絕了。
25Their graven things thou shalt burn with fire: thou shalt not covet the silver and gold of which they are made, neither shalt thou take to thee any thing thereof, lest thou offend, because it is an abomination to the Lord thy God.
25他們雕刻的神像，你們要用火焚燒；其上的金銀，你不可貪圖，也不可收取，免得你因此陷入網羅；這原是耶和華－你上帝所憎惡的。
26Neither shalt thou bring any thing of the idol into thy house, lest thou become an anathema, like it. Thou shalt detest it as dung, and shalt utterly abhor it as uncleanness and filth, because it is an anathema.
26可憎的物，你不可帶進家去；不然，你就成了當毀滅的，與那物一樣。你要十分厭惡，十分憎嫌，因為這是當毀滅的物。」
