1Ama itaque Dominum Deum tuum, et observa præcepta ejus et cæremonias, judicia atque mandata, omni tempore.
1Therefore love the Lord thy God and observe his precepts and ceremonies, his judgments and commandments at all times.
2Cognoscite hodie quæ ignorant filii vestri, qui non viderunt disciplinam Domini Dei vestri, magnalia ejus et robustam manum, extentumque brachium,
2Know this day the things that your children know not, who saw not the chastisements of the Lord your God. his great doings and strong hand, and stretched out arm,
3signa et opera quæ fecit in medio Ægypti Pharaoni regi, et universæ terræ ejus,
3The signs and works which he did in the midst of Egypt to king Pharao, and to all his land,
4omnique exercitui Ægyptiorum, et equis ac curribus: quomodo operuerint eos aquæ maris Rubri, cum vos persequerentur, et deleverit eos Dominus usque in præsentem diem:
4And to all the host of the Egyptians, and to their horses and chariots: how the waters of the Red Sea covered them, when they pursued you, and how the Lord destroyed them until this present day:
5vobisque quæ fecerit in solitudine donec veniretis ad hunc locum:
5And what he hath done to you in the wilderness, till you came to this place:
6et Dathan atque Abiron filiis Eliab, qui fuit filius Ruben: quos aperto ore suo terra absorbuit, cum domibus et tabernaculis, et universa substantia eorum, quam habebant in medio Israël.
6And to Dathan and Abiron the sons of Eliab, who was the son of Ruben: whom the earth, opening her mouth swallowed up with their households and tents, and all their substance, which they had in the midst of Israel.
7Oculi vestri viderunt opera Domini magna quæ fecit,
7Your eyes have seen all the greet works of the Lord, that he hath done,
8ut custodiatis universa mandata illius, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis, et possitis introire, et possidere terram, ad quam ingredimini,
8That you may keep all his commandments, which I command you this day, and may go in, and possess the land, to which you are entering,
9multoque in ea vivatis tempore: quam sub juramento pollicitus est Dominus patribus vestris, et semini eorum, lacte et melle manantem.
9And may live in it a long time: which the Lord promised by oath to your fathers, and to their seed, a land which floweth with milk and honey.
10Terra enim, ad quam ingrederis possidendam, non est sicut terra Ægypti, de qua existi, ubi jacto semine in hortorum morem aquæ ducuntur irriguæ:
10For the land, which thou goest to possess, is not like the land of Egypt, from whence thou camest out, where, when the seed is sown, waters are brought in to water it after the manner of gardens.
11sed montuosa est et campestris, de cælo expectans pluvias,
11But it is a land of hills and plains, expecting rain from heaven.
12quam Dominus Deus tuus semper invisit, et oculi illius in ea sunt a principio anni usque ad finem ejus.
12And the Lord thy God doth always visit it, and his eyes are on it from the beginning of the year unto the end thereof.
13Si ergo obedieritis mandatis meis, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis, ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum, et serviatis ei in toto corde vestro, et in tota anima vestra:
13If then you obey my commandments, which I command you this day, that you love the Lord your God, and serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul:
14dabit pluviam terræ vestræ temporaneam et serotinam, ut colligatis frumentum, et vinum, et oleum,
14He will give to your land the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil,
15fœnumque ex agris ad pascenda jumenta, et ut ipsi comedatis ac saturemini.
15And your hay out of the fields to feed your cattle, and that you may eat and be filled.
16Cavete ne forte decipiatur cor vestrum, et recedatis a Domino, serviatisque diis alienis, et adoretis eos:
16Beware lest perhaps your heart be deceived, and you depart from the Lord, and serve strange gods, and adore them:
17iratusque Dominus claudat cælum, et pluviæ non descendant, nec terra det germen suum, pereatisque velociter de terra optima, quam Dominus daturus est vobis.
17And the Lord being angry shut up heaven, that the rain come not down, nor the earth yield her fruit, and you perish quickly from the excellent land, which the Lord will give you.
18Ponite hæc verba mea in cordibus et in animis vestris, et suspendite ea pro signo in manibus, et inter oculos vestros collocate.
18Lay up these my words in your hearts and minds, and hang them for a sign on your hands, and place them between your eyes.
19Docete filios vestros ut illa meditentur: quando sederis in domo tua, et ambulaveris in via, et accubueris atque surrexeris.
19Teach your children that they meditate on them, when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest on the way, and when thou liest down and risest up.
20Scribes ea super postes et januas domus tuæ,
20Thou shalt write them upon the posts and the doors of thy house:
21ut multiplicentur dies tui, et filiorum tuorum in terra, quam juravit Dominus patribus tuis, ut daret eis quamdiu cælum imminet terræ.
21That thy days may be multiplied, and the days of thy children in the land which the Lord swore to thy fathers, that he would give them as long as the heaven hangeth over the earth.
22Si enim custodieritis mandata quæ ego præcipio vobis, et feceritis ea, ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum, et ambuletis in omnibus viis ejus, adhærentes ei,
22For if you keep the commandments which I command you, and do them, to love the Lord your God, and walk in all his ways, cleaving unto him,
23disperdet Dominus omnes gentes istas ante faciem vestram, et possidebitis eas, quæ majores et fortiores vobis sunt.
23The Lord will destroy all these nations before your face, and you shall possess them, which are greater and stronger than you.
24Omnis locus, quem calcaverit pes vester, vester erit. A deserto, et a Libano, a flumine magno Euphrate usque ad mare occidentale erunt termini vestri.
24Every place, that your foot shall tread upon, shall be yours. From the desert, and from Libanus, from the great river Euphrates unto the western sea shall be your borders.
25Nullus stabit contra vos: terrorem vestrum et formidinem dabit Dominus Deus vester super omnem terram quam calcaturi estis, sicut locutus est vobis.
25None shall stand against you: the Lord your God shall lay the dread and fear of you upon all the land that you shall tread upon, as he hath spoken to you.
26En propono in conspectu vestro hodie benedictionem et maledictionem:
26Behold I set forth in your sight this day a blessing and a curse:
27benedictionem, si obedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri, quæ ego hodie præcipio vobis:
27A blessing, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you this day:
28maledictionem, si non obedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri, sed recesseritis de via, quam ego nunc ostendo vobis, et ambulaveritis post deos alienos, quos ignoratis.
28A curse, if you obey not the commandments of the Lord your. God, but revolt from the way which now I shew you, and walk after strange gods which you know not.
29Cum vero introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in terram, ad quam pergis habitandam, pones benedictionem super montem Garizim, maledictionem super montem Hebal:
29And when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, whither thou goest to dwell, thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Garizim, the curse upon mount Hebal:
30qui sunt trans Jordanem, post viam quæ vergit ad solis occubitum in terra Chananæi, qui habitat in campestribus contra Galgalam, quæ est juxta vallem tendentem et intrantem procul.
30Which are beyond the Jordan, behind the way that goeth to the setting of the sun, in the land of the Chanaanite who dwelleth in the plain country over against Galgala, which is near the valley that reacheth and entereth far.
31Vos enim transibitis Jordanem, ut possideatis terram quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis, ut habeatis et possideatis illam.
31For you shall pass over the Jordan, to possess the land, which the Lord your God will give you, that you may have it and possess it.
32Videte ergo ut impleatis cæremonias atque judicia, quæ ego hodie ponam in conspectu vestro.
32See therefore that you fulfill the ceremonies and judgments, which I shall set this day before you.
