1 ¶ Therefore, thou shalt love the LORD thy God and keep his charge and his statutes and his rights and his commandments, always.

«فَأحِبُّوا إلَهَكُمْ ، وَاحْفَظُوا أوامِرَهُ وَشَرائِعَهُ وَفَرائِضَهُ وَوَصاياهُ دائِماً.

2 A nd know ye this day; for I speak not with your children who have not known and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his outstretched arm,

وَافهَمُوا اليَومَ أنَّ كَلامِي هَذا لَيسَ لِأولادِكُمُ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَعرِفُوا وَلَمْ يَرَوا تَأْدِيبَ إلَهِكُمْ وَعَظَمَتَهُ وَقُوَّتَهُ العَظِيمَةَ

3 a nd his miracles and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh, the king of Egypt and unto all his land,

وَآياتِهِ وَأعمالَهُ الَّتِي عَمِلَها فِي مِصْرَ بِفِرْعَونَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَبِكُلِّ أرْضِها،

4 a nd what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses and to their chariots, how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you and how the LORD has destroyed them unto this day,

وَما عَمِلَهُ بِجَيشِ مِصْرَ وَخُيُولِهِ وَمَركَباتِهِ، وَكَيفَ أنَّهُ جَعَلَ مِياهَ البَحرِ الأحمَرِ تَغْمُرُهُمْ وَهُمْ يُلاحِقُونَكُمْ، فَأهلَكَهُمْ اللهُ تَماماً إلَى هَذا اليَومِ،

5 a nd what he did with you in the wilderness until ye came into this place,

وَما عَمِلَهُ لَكُمْ فِي الصَّحراءِ إلَى أنْ أتَيتُمْ إلَى هَذا المَكانِ،

6 a nd what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them up and their households and their tents and all the substance that was in their possession in the midst of all Israel;

وَما عَمِلَهُ بَداثانَ وَأبِيرامَ ابْنَي ألِيآبَ الرَأُوبَيْنِيَّ، حِينَ فَتَحَتِ الأرْضُ فاها وَابتَلَعَتهُمْ مَعَ عائِلاتِهِمْ وَخِيامِهِمْ وَكُلِّ حَيوانٍ كانَ يَتبَعُهُمْ فِي وَسَطِ كُلِّ إسْرائِيلَ،

7 b ut your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.

بَلْ كَلامِي هُوَ لَكُمْ أنتُمُ الَّذِينَ رَأيتُمْ كُلَّ الأعمالِ العَظِيمَةِ الَّتِي عَمِلَها اللهُ.

8 ¶ Keep, therefore, all the commandments which I command you this day that ye may be strong and enter in and inherit the land, into which ye go to inherit it

«فاحفَظُوا كُلَّ الشَّرِيعَةِ الَّتِي أُعطِيها لَكُمُ اليَومَ، لِتَكُونُوا أقوِياءَ وَتَدخُلُوا لامتِلاكِ الأرْضِ الَّتِي أنتُمْ عابِرُونَ نَهرَ الأُردُنِّ إلَيها،

9 a nd that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that flows with milk and honey.

وَلِكَي تَحيَوا طَوِيلاً عَلَى الأرْضِ الَّتِي أقسَمَ اللهُ لآبائِكُمْ بِأنْ يُعطِيَها لَهُمْ وَلِأحفادِهِمْ، أرْضاً تَفيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً.

10 F or the land, into which thou goest to inherit it, is not as the land of Egypt, from which ye came out, where thou didst sow thy seed and water it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs.

لِأنَّ الأرْضَ الَّتِي سَتَدخُلُونَ لامتَلاكِها لَيسَتْ كَأرْضِ مِصْرَ الَّتِي تَرَكْتُمُوها، حَيثُ كُنتُمْ فِي مِصْرَ تَزرَعُونَ البُذُورَ وَتَروُونَها بِأرجُلِكُمْ كَبُستانِ خَضراواتٍ.

11 T he land, into which ye go to inherit it, is a land of mountains and valleys and drinks water of the rain of heaven,

لَكِنَّ الأرْضَ الَّتِي سَتَعبُرُونَ النَّهرَ لامتِلاكِها أرْضُ جِبالٍ وَأودِيَةٍ، تُروَى بِمَطَرِ السَّماءِ.

12 a land which the LORD thy God procures; the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.

أرْضٌ يَعتَنِي بِها إلَهُكُمْ. عَينا إلَهِكُمْ عَلَيها دائِماً، مِنْ بِدايَةِ السَّنَةِ إلَى نِهايَتِها.

13 A nd it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day: to love the LORD your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul

«فَإنْ أطَعتُمْ بِحِرصٍ وَصايايَ الَّتِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِها اليَومَ، وَأحبَبْتُمْ اللهَ وَخَدَمْتُمُوهُ بِكُلِّ قُلٌوبِكِمْ وَبِكُلِّ نُفُوسِكُمْ،

14 t hat I will give you the rain of your land in its due season, the early rain and the latter rain, and thou shalt gather in thy grain and thy wine and thine oil.

فَإنِّي سَأُعْطِي مَطَراً لِأرْضِكُمْ فِي الوَقتِ المُناسِبِ. وَسَأُعْطِي لَها مَطَرَ الخَرِيفِ وَمَطَرَ الرَّبِيعِ. وَسَتَجمَعُونَ قَمحَكُمْ وَنَبيذَكُمُ الجَدِيدَ وَزَيتَكُمْ.

15 A nd I will send grass in thy fields for thy beasts, and thou shalt eat and be full.

وَسَيُنبِتُ عُشْباً فِي حُقُولِكُمْ لِحَيواناتِكُمْ، وَسَيَكُونُ لَدَيكُمْ طَعامٌ وَفِيرٌ.

16 K eep yourselves, therefore, that your heart not be deceived and ye turn aside and serve other gods and worship them;

«لَكِنِ احْرِصُوا عَلَى أنْ لا يَخدَعَكُمْ أحَدٌ، فَتَبتَعِدُوا وَتَعبُدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى وَتَسجُدُوا لَها.

17 a nd then the LORD’s wrath be kindled against you and he shut up the heavens, that there be no rain and that the land yield not her fruit, and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.

إذْ سَيَغضَبُ اللهُ عَلَيكُمْ، وَسَيُغلِقُ السَّماءَ فَلا يَكُونُ هُناكَ مَطَرٌ، وَلَنْ تُنبِتَ الأرْضُ مَحاصِيلَها، وَسَتَمُوتُونَ سَرِيعاً فِي الأرْضِ الجَيِّدَةِ الَّتِي يُعطِيها اللهُ لَكُمْ.

18 ¶ Therefore, ye shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul and bind them for a sign upon your hand that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

«فَضَعُوا كَلِماتِي فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ وَفِي نُفُوسِكُمْ. اربُطُوها عَلَى أيدِيكُمْ كَعَلامَةٍ لِتَذكِيرِكُمْ، وَاعْصِبُوا بِها جِباهَكُمْ.

19 A nd ye shall teach them to your children that ye may think of them sitting in thy house and walking by the way, lying down in bed, and rising up.

عَلِّمُوها لِأولادِكُمْ وَتَكَلَّمُوا بِها حِينَ تَجلِسُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، وَحِينَ تَسِيرُونَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَحِينَ تَنامُونَ، وَحِينَ تَقُومُونَ.

20 A nd thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house and upon thy gates

اكتُبُوها عَلَى قَوائِمِ بُيُوتِكُمْ وَبَوّاباتِ مُدُنِكُمْ،

21 t hat your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, upon the land which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens upon the earth.

لِكَي تَحيَوا أنتُمْ وَأولادَكُمْ زَمَناً طَوِيلاً عَلَى الأرْضِ الَّتِي أقسَمَ اللهُ لآبائِكُمْ بِأنْ يُعطِيَها لَهُمْ، ما دامَتِ السَّماءُ فَوقَ الأرْضِ.

22 F or if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, loving the LORD your God and walking in all his ways, to cleave unto him,

«إنْ حَفِظْتُمْ كُلَّ هَذِهِ الشَّرِيعَةِ الَّتِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِها لِتَعمَلُوها بِحِرصٍ، وَأحبَبتُمْ إلَهَكُمْ ، وَعِشتُمْ بِحَسَبِ كَلامِهِ، وَبَقَيتُمْ أُمَناءَ لَهُ،

23 t hen the LORD will drive out all these Gentiles from before you, and ye shall possess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.

فَإنَّ اللهَ سَيَطرُدُ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الأُمَمِ مِنْ أمامِكُمْ. فَتَطْرُدُونَ أُمَماً أعظَمَ وَأقوَى مِنكُمْ وَتَمْتَلِكُونَ أرْضَهُمْ.

24 E very place upon which the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours, from the wilderness and Lebanon; from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the western sea shall be your border.

كُلُّ مَكانٍ تَسِيرُ عَلَيهِ أقدامُكُمْ يَكُونُ لَكُمْ. فَيَكُونُ امتِدادُ أرْضِكُمْ مِنَ الصَّحراءِ جَنُوباً إلَى لُبنانَ شَمالاً، وَمِنْ نَهرِ الفُراتِ شَرقاً إلَى البَحرِ الغَربِيِّ.

25 N o one shall be able to stand before you; for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he has said unto you.

وَلَنْ يَستَطِيعَ أحَدٌ أنْ يَقِفَ ضِدَّكُمْ، لِأنَّ إلَهَكُمْ سَيَجعَلُ النّاسَ يَخافُونَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ الأرْضِ حَيثُما ذَهَبتُمْ، كَما وَعَدَكُمْ. البَرَكَةُ وَاللَّعنَة

26 ¶ Behold, I set before you this day the blessing and the curse:

«سَأُعطِيكُمُ اليَومَ أنْ تَختارُوا بَينَ البَرَكَةِ وَاللَّعنَةِ.

27 T he blessing if ye hear the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day,

البَرَكَةُ لَكُمْ إنْ أطَعتُمْ وَصايا إلَهِكُمُ الَّتِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِها اليَومَ،

28 a nd the curse if ye will not hear the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.

وَاللَّعنَةُ لَكُمْ إنْ لَمْ تَطِيعُوا وَصايا إلَهِكُمْ وَلَمْ تَعِيشُوا بِحَسَبِ ما أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ اليَومَ، بِسَيرِكُمْ وَراءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لَمْ تَعرِفُوها مِنْ قَبلُ.

29 A nd it shall come to pass when the LORD thy God has brought thee in unto the land where thou goest to inherit it that thou shalt put the blessing upon Mount Gerizim and the curse upon Mount Ebal,

«فَعِندَما يُدْخِلُكُمْ إلَهُكُمُ إلَى الأرْضِ لِتَمتَلِكُوها، أعلِنُوا البَرَكَةَ مِنْ فَوْقِ جَبَلِ جِرِزِّيمَ، وَاللَّعنَةَ مِنْ فَوْقِ جَبَلِ عيبالَ،

30 w hich are on the other side of the Jordan, by the way of the west, in the land of the Canaanite, who dwells in the plain over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh.

الجَبَلينِ اللَّذَينِ عَلَى الضِّفَّةِ الغَربِيَّةِ لِنَهرِ الأُردُنِّ، فِي أرْضِ الكَنعانِيِّينَ السّاكِنِينَ وادِي الأردُنِّ قُربَ مَدِينَةِ الجِلجالِ، بِجانِبِ شَجَرَةِ البَلُّوطِ فِي مُورَةَ.

31 F or ye shall pass the Jordan to go in to inherit the land which the LORD your God gives you, and ye shall possess it and dwell therein.

فَسَتَعبُرُونَ نَهرَ الأُردُنِّ لِتَدخُلُوا وَتَمتَلِكُوا الأرْضَ الَّتِي سَيُعطِيها إلهُكُمْ لَكُمْ. وَحِينَ تَمتَلِكُونَها وَتَسكُنُونَ فِيها،

32 K eep yourselves, therefore, to do all the statutes and rights which I set before you this day.

أطِيعُوا جَمِيعَ الشَّرائِعِ وَالفَرائِضِ الَّتِي أُعطِيها لَكُمْ.
