The Ten Commandments Repeated

1 And Moses called all Israēl, and said unto them, Hear, Oh Israēl, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that you may learn them, and keep, and do them.

וַיִּקְרָ֣א מֹשֶׁה֮ אֶל־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל֒ וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵהֶ֗ם שְׁמַ֤ע יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אֶת־הַחֻקִּ֣ים וְאֶת־הַמִּשְׁפָּטִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֧ר אָנֹכִ֛י דֹּבֵ֥ר בְּאָזְנֵיכֶ֖ם הַיֹּ֑ום וּלְמַדְתֶּ֣ם אֹתָ֔ם וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֖ם לַעֲשֹׂתָֽם׃

1 Καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Μωυσῆς πάντα Ἰσραὴλ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς ἄκουε, Ἰσραήλ, τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα, ὅσα ἐγὼ λαλῶ ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ, καὶ μαθήσεσθε αὐτὰ καὶ φυλάξεσθε ποιεῖν αὐτά. 1 Καὶ ἐκάλεσε Μωυσῆς πάντα Ἰσραήλ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· ἄκουε, Ἰσραήλ, τὰ δικαιώματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα, ὅσα ἐγὼ λαλῶ ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ, καὶ μαθήσεσθε αὐτὰ καὶ φυλάξεσθε ποιεῖν αὐτά.
1 And Mōysēs called all Israēl and said to them: Hear, Oh Israēl, the statutes and judgments that I am speaking in your ears on this day, and you shall learn them and be careful to do them. 1 And Mōysēs called all Israēl and said to them: Hear, Oh Israēl, the statutes and judgments that I am speaking in your ears on this day, and you shall learn them and be careful to do them.

2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.

יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ כָּרַ֥ת עִמָּ֛נוּ בְּרִ֖ית בְּחֹרֵֽב׃

2 κύριος θεὸς ὑμῶν διέθετο πρὸς ὑμᾶς διαθήκην ἐν Χωρήβ· 2 Κύριος Θεὸς ὑμῶν διέθετο πρὸς ὑμᾶς διαθήκην ἐν Χωρήβ·
2 Your Lord God established a covenant with you at Chōrēb. 2 Your Lord God established a covenant with you at Chōrēb.

3 The LORD didn’t make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.

לֹ֣א אֶת־אֲבֹתֵ֔ינוּ כָּרַ֥ת יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־הַבְּרִ֣ית הַזֹּ֑את כִּ֣י אִתָּ֗נוּ אֲנַ֨חְנוּ אֵ֥לֶּה פֹ֛ה הַיֹּ֖ום כֻּלָּ֥נוּ חַיִּֽים׃


4 The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,

פָּנִ֣ים ׀ בְּפָנִ֗ים דִּבֶּ֨ר יְהוָ֧ה עִמָּכֶ֛ם בָּהָ֖ר מִתֹּ֥וךְ הָאֵֽשׁ׃

4 πρόσωπον κατὰ πρόσωπον ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός 4 πρόσωπον κατὰ πρόσωπον ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός,
4 The Lord spoke to you face-to-face at the mountain, from the midst of the fire, 4 The Lord spoke to you face-to-face at the mountain, from the midst of the fire,

5 (I stood between the LORD and you at that time, to show you the work of the LORD: for you were afraid by reason of the fire, and didn’t go up into the mount;) saying,

אָ֠נֹכִי עֹמֵ֨ד בֵּין־יְהוָ֤ה וּבֵֽינֵיכֶם֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔וא לְהַגִּ֥יד לָכֶ֖ם אֶת־דְּבַ֣ר יְהוָ֑ה כִּ֤י יְרֵאתֶם֙ מִפְּנֵ֣י הָאֵ֔שׁ וְלֹֽא־עֲלִיתֶ֥ם בָּהָ֖ר לֵאמֹֽר׃

5 κἀγὼ εἱστήκειν ἀνὰ μέσον κυρίου καὶ ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀναγγεῖλαι ὑμῖν τὰ ῥήματα κυρίου, ὅτι ἐφοβήθητε ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ οὐκ ἀνέβητε εἰς τὸ ὄρος λέγων 5 κἀγὼ εἱστήκειν ἀνὰ μέσον Κυρίου καὶ ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀναγγεῖλαι ὑμῖν τὰ ῥήματα Κυρίου, ὅτι ἐφοβήθητε ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ οὐκ ἀνέβητε εἰς τὸ ὄρος, λέγων·
5 and I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to report to you the words of the Lord, because you were afraid from before the fire and didn’t go up into the mountain, saying, 5 and I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to report to you the words of the Lord, because you were afraid from before the fire and didn’t go up into the mountain, saying,

6 I am the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

אָֽנֹכִי֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁ֧ר הֹוצֵאתִ֛יךָ מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרַ֖יִם מִבֵּ֣ית עֲבָדִֽ֑ים׃

9 You shall not bow down yourself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

לֹא־תִשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֥֣ה לָהֶ֖ם֮ וְלֹ֣א תָעָבְדֵ֑ם֒ כִּ֣י אָנֹכִ֞י יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ אֵ֣ל קַנָּ֔א פֹּ֠קֵד עֲוֹ֨ן אָבֹ֧ות עַל־בָּנִ֛ים וְעַל־שִׁלֵּשִׁ֥ים וְעַל־רִבֵּעִ֖ים לְשֹׂנְאָֽ֑י׃

12 Guard the day of the sabbaths to consecrate it, in the manner your Lord God commanded you. 12 Guard the day of the sabbaths to consecrate it, in the manner your Lord God commanded you.

13 Six days you shall labour, and do all your work:

13 Six days you shall work and do all your works, 13 Six days you shall work and do all your works,

14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates; that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you.

14 but on the seventh day there are sabbaths to your Lord God; you shall not do in it any work–you and your son and your daughter, your male servant and your female servant, your ox and your beast of burden and any animal of yours and the immigrant who is living with you, in order that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 14 but on the seventh day there are sabbaths to your Lord God; you shall not do in it any work–you and your son and your daughter, your male servant and your female servant, your ox and your beast of burden and any animal of yours and the immigrant who is living with you, in order that your male servant and your female servant and your beast of burden may rest as well as you.

15 And remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD your God brought you out from there through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.

Moses Interceded

22 These words the LORD spoke unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.

אֶֽת־הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֡לֶּה דִּבֶּר֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֶל־כָּל־קְהַלְכֶ֜ם בָּהָ֗ר מִתֹּ֤וךְ הָאֵשׁ֙ הֶֽעָנָ֣ן וְהָֽעֲרָפֶ֔ל קֹ֥ול גָּדֹ֖ול וְלֹ֣א יָסָ֑ף וַֽיִּכְתְּבֵ֗ם עַל־שְׁנֵי֙ לֻחֹ֣ת אֲבָנִ֔ים וַֽיִּתְּנֵ֖ם אֵלָֽי׃

22 τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς πᾶσαν συναγωγὴν ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός, σκότος, γνόφος, θύελλα, φωνὴ μεγάλη, καὶ οὐ προσέθηκεν· καὶ ἔγραψεν αὐτὰ ἐπὶ δύο πλάκας λιθίνας καὶ ἔδωκέν μοι. 22 ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς πᾶσαν συναγωγὴν ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός, σκότος, γνόφος, θύελλα, φωνὴ μεγάλη, καὶ οὐ προσέθηκε· καὶ ἔγραψεν αὐτὰ ἐπὶ δύο πλάκας λιθίνας καὶ ἔδωκέ μοι.
22 The Lord spoke these words to your whole gathering at the mountain, from the midst of the fire–darkness, gloom, storm, a loud voice– and he didn’t add more. And he wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me. 22 The Lord spoke these words to your whole gathering at the mountain, from the midst of the fire–darkness, gloom, storm, a loud voice– and he didn’t add more. And he wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me.

23 And it came to pass, when you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire,) that you came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;

וַיְהִ֗י כְּשָׁמְעֲכֶ֤ם אֶת־הַקֹּול֙ מִתֹּ֣וךְ הַחֹ֔שֶׁךְ וְהָהָ֖ר בֹּעֵ֣ר בָּאֵ֑שׁ וַתִּקְרְב֣וּן אֵלַ֔י כָּל־רָאשֵׁ֥י שִׁבְטֵיכֶ֖ם וְזִקְנֵיכֶֽם׃

23 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἠκούσατε τὴν φωνὴν ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ τὸ ὄρος ἐκαίετο πυρί, καὶ προσήλθετε πρός με, πάντες οἱ ἡγούμενοι τῶν φυλῶν ὑμῶν καὶ γερουσία ὑμῶν, 23 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἠκούσατε τὴν φωνὴν ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ τὸ ὄρος ἐκαίετο πυρί, καὶ προσήλθετε πρός με πάντες οἱ ἡγούμενοι τῶν φυλῶν ὑμῶν καὶ γερουσία ὑμῶν,
23 And it happened, when you heard the voice from the midst of the fire and the mountain kept burning with fire, and you approached me, all the leaders of your tribes and your eldership, 23 And it happened, when you heard the voice from the midst of the fire and the mountain kept burning with fire, and you approached me, all the leaders of your tribes and your eldership,

24 And you said, Behold, the LORD our God has shown us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God does talk with man, and he lives.

וַתֹּאמְר֗וּ הֵ֣ן הֶרְאָ֜נוּ יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֙ינוּ֙ אֶת־כְּבֹדֹ֣ו וְאֶת־גָּדְלֹ֔ו וְאֶת־קֹלֹ֥ו שָׁמַ֖עְנוּ מִתֹּ֣וךְ הָאֵ֑שׁ הַיֹּ֤ום הַזֶּה֙ רָאִ֔ינוּ כִּֽי־יְדַבֵּ֧ר אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֶת־הָֽאָדָ֖ם וָחָֽי׃

24 καὶ ἐλέγετε ἰδοὺ ἔδειξεν ἡμῖν κύριος θεὸς ἡμῶν τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἠκούσαμεν ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός· ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ εἴδομεν ὅτι λαλήσει θεὸς πρὸς ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ζήσεται. 24 καὶ ἐλέγετε· ἰδοὺ ἔδειξεν ἡμῖν Κύριος Θεὸς ἡμῶν τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἠκούσαμεν ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός· ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ εἴδομεν ὅτι λαλήσει Θεὸς πρὸς ἄνθρωπον, καὶ ζήσεται.
24 and you said, “Look, our Lord God has shown us his glory, and we have heard his voice from the midst of the fire.

This day we have seen that God will speak to a man, and he will live.

25 Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any more, then we shall die.

וְעַתָּה֙ לָ֣מָּה נָמ֔וּת כִּ֣י תֹֽאכְלֵ֔נוּ הָאֵ֥שׁ הַגְּדֹלָ֖ה הַזֹּ֑את אִם־יֹסְפִ֣ים ׀ אֲנַ֗חְנוּ לִ֠שְׁמֹעַ אֶת־קֹ֨ול יְהוָ֧ה אֱלֹהֵ֛ינוּ עֹ֖וד וָמָֽתְנוּ׃

25 καὶ νῦν μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν, ὅτι ἐξαναλώσει ἡμᾶς τὸ πῦρ τὸ μέγα τοῦτο, ἐὰν προσθώμεθα ἡμεῖς ἀκοῦσαι τὴν φωνὴν κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἔτι, καὶ ἀποθανούμεθα. 25 καὶ νῦν μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν, ὅτι ἐξαναλώσει ἡμᾶς τὸ πῦρ τὸ μέγα τοῦτο, ἐὰν προσθώμεθα ἡμεῖς ἀκοῦσαι τὴν φωνὴν Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἔτι, καὶ ἀποθανούμεθα·
25 And now don’t let us die. Because this great fire will utterly destroy us; if we continue to hear the voice of our Lord God any longer, then we will die. 25 And now don’t let us die. Because this great fire will utterly destroy us; if we continue to hear the voice of our Lord God any longer, then we will die.

26 For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?

כִּ֣י מִ֣י כָל־בָּשָׂ֡ר אֲשֶׁ֣ר שָׁמַ֣ע קֹול֩ אֱלֹהִ֨ים חַיִּ֜ים מְדַבֵּ֧ר מִתֹּוךְ־הָאֵ֛שׁ כָּמֹ֖נוּ וַיֶּֽחִי׃

26 τίς γὰρ σάρξ, ἥτις ἤκουσεν φωνὴν θεοῦ ζῶντος λαλοῦντος ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρὸς ὡς ἡμεῖς καὶ ζήσεται; 26 τίς γὰρ σάρξ, ἥτις ἤκουσε φωνὴν Θεοῦ ζῶντος λαλοῦντος ἐκ μέσου τοῦ πυρός, ὡς ἡμεῖς, καὶ ζήσεται;
