Deuteronomy 10
1 At that time the Lord said unto me, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make thee an ark of wood.
1 In tempore illo dixit Dominus ad me: Dola tibi duas tabulas lapideas, sicut priores fuerunt, et ascende ad me in montem: faciesque arcam ligneam,
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
2 et scribam in tabulis verba quæ fuerunt in his quas ante confregisti: ponesque eas in arca.
3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
3 Feci igitur arcam de lignis setim. Cumque dolassem duas tabulas lapideas instar priorum, ascendi in montem, habens eas in manibus.
4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the Lord spake unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the Lord gave them unto me.
4 Scripsitque in tabulis, juxta id quod prius scripserat, verba decem, quæ locutus est Dominus ad vos in monte de medio ignis, quando populus congregatus est: et dedit eas mihi.
5 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the Lord commanded me.
5 Reversusque de monte, descendi, et posui tabulas in arcam, quam feceram, quæ hucusque ibi sunt, sicut mihi præcepit Dominus.
6 ¶ And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.
6 Filii autem Israël moverunt castra ex Beroth filiorum Jacan in Mosera, ubi Aaron mortuus ac sepultus est, pro quo sacerdotio functus est Eleazar filius ejus.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
7 Inde venerunt in Gadgad: de quo loco profecti, castrametati sunt in Jetebatha, in terra aquarum atque torrentium.
8 ¶ At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
8 ¶ Eo tempore separavit tribum Levi, ut portaret arcam fœderis Domini, et staret coram eo in ministerio, ac benediceret in nomine illius usque in præsentem diem.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, according as the Lord thy God promised him.
9 Quam ob rem non habuit Levi partem, neque possessionem cum fratribus suis: quia ipse Dominus possessio ejus est, sicut promisit ei Dominus Deus tuus.
10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the Lord hearkened unto me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy thee.
10 Ego autem steti in monte, sicut prius, quadraginta diebus ac noctibus: exaudivitque me Dominus etiam hac vice, et te perdere noluit.
11 And the Lord said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
11 Dixitque mihi: Vade, et præcede populum, ut ingrediatur, et possideat terram, quam juravi patribus eorum ut traderem eis.
12 ¶ And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
12 ¶ Et nunc Israël, quid Dominus Deus tuus petit a te, nisi ut timeas Dominum Deum tuum, et ambules in viis ejus, et diligas eum, ac servias Domino Deo tuo in toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua:
13 To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
13 custodiasque mandata Domini, et cæremonias ejus, quas ego hodie præcipio tibi, ut bene sit tibi?
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
14 En Domini Dei tui cælum est, et cælum cæli, terra, et omnia quæ in ea sunt:
15 Only the Lord had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
15 et tamen patribus tuis conglutinatus est Dominus, et amavit eos, elegitque semen eorum post eos, id est, vos, de cunctis gentibus, sicut hodie comprobatur.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
16 Circumcidite igitur præputium cordis vestri, et cervicem vestram ne induretis amplius:
17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:
17 quia Dominus Deus vester ipse est Deus deorum, et Dominus dominantium, Deus magnus, et potens, et terribilis, qui personam non accipit, nec munera.
18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
18 Facit judicium pupillo et viduæ; amat peregrinum, et dat ei victum atque vestitum.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
19 Et vos ergo amate peregrinos, quia et ipsi fuistis advenæ in terra Ægypti.
20 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.
20 Dominum Deum tuum timebis, et ei soli servies: ipsi adhærebis, jurabisque in nomine illius.
21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
21 Ipse est laus tua, et Deus tuus, qui fecit tibi hæc magnalia et terribilia, quæ viderunt oculi tui.
22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the Lord thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
22 In septuaginta animabus descenderunt patres tui in Ægyptum, et ecce nunc multiplicavit te Dominus Deus tuus sicut astra cæli.
