Deuteronomio 6

1 ESTOS pues son los mandamientos, estatutos, y derechos que Jehová vuestro Dios mandó que os enseñase, para que los pongáis por obra en la tierra á la cual pasáis vosotros para poseerla:

And these [are] the commands, and the ordinances, and the judgements, as many as the Lord our God gave commandment to teach you to do so in the land on which you enter to inherit it.

2 Para que temas á Jehová tu Dios, guardando todos sus estatutos y sus mandamientos que yo te mando, tú, y tu hijo, y el hijo de tu hijo, todos los días de tu vida, y que tus días sean prolongados.

That you may fear the Lord your God, keep you all his ordinances, and his commandments, which I command you today, you, and your sons, and your sons' sons, all the days of your life, that you may live many days.

3 Oye pues, oh Israel, y cuida de ponerlos por obra, para que te vaya bien, y seáis multiplicados, como te ha dicho Jehová el Dios de tus padres, en la tierra que destila leche y miel.

Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do them, that it may be well with you, and that you may be greatly multiplied, as the Lord God of your fathers said that he would give you a land flowing with milk and honey: and these [are] the ordinances, and the judgements, which the Lord commanded the children of Israel in the wilderness, when they had gone forth from the land of Egypt.

4 Oye, Israel: Jehová nuestro Dios, Jehová uno es:

Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord.

5 Y amarás á Jehová tu Dios de todo tu corazón, y de toda tu alma, y con todo tu poder.

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your mind, and with all your soul, and all your strength.

6 Y estas palabras que yo te mando hoy, estarán sobre tu corazón:

And these words, all that I command you this day, shall be in your heart and in your soul.

7 Y las repetirás á tus hijos, y hablarás de ellas estando en tu casa, y andando por el camino, y al acostarte, y cuando te levantes:

And you shall teach them to your children, and you shall speak of them sitting in the house, and walking by the way, and lying down, and rising up.

8 Y has de atarlas por señal en tu mano, y estarán por frontales entre tus ojos:

And you shall fasten them for a sign upon your hand, and it shall be immoveable before your eyes.

9 Y las escribirás en los postes de tu casa, y en tus portadas.

And you shall write them on the lintels of your houses and of your gates.

10 Y será, cuando Jehová tu Dios te hubiere introducido en la tierra que juró á tus padres Abraham, Isaac, y Jacob, que te daría; [en] ciudades grandes y buenas que tú no edificaste,

And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land which he sware to your fathers, to Abraam, and to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you great and beautiful cities which you did not build,

11 Y casas llenas de todo bien, que tú no henchiste, y cisternas cavadas, que tú no cavaste, viñas y olivares que no plantaste: luego que comieres y te hartares,

houses full of all good things which you did not fill, wells dug in the rock which you did not dig, vineyards and olive yards which you did not plant, then having eaten and been filled,

12 Guárdate que no te olvides de Jehová, que te sacó de tierra de Egipto, de casa de siervos.

beware lest you forget the Lord your God that brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

13 A Jehová tu Dios temerás, y á él servirás, y por su nombre jurarás.

You shall fear the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve; and you shall cleave to him, and by his name you shall swear.

14 No andaréis en pos de dioses ajenos, de los dioses de los pueblos que están en vuestros contornos:

Go you not after other gods of the gods of the nations round about you;

15 Porque el Dios celoso, Jehová tu Dios, en medio de ti [está]; porque no se inflame el furor de Jehová tu Dios contra ti, y te destruya de sobre la haz de la tierra.

for the Lord your God in the midst of you [is] a jealous God, lest the Lord your God be very angry with you, and destroy you from off the face of the earth.

16 No tentaréis á Jehová vuestro Dios, como lo tentasteis en Massa.

You shall not tempt the Lord your God, as you tempted him in the temptation.

17 Guardad cuidadosamente los mandamientos de Jehová vuestro Dios, y sus testimonios, y sus estatutos, que te ha mandado.

You shall by all means keep the commands of the Lord your God, the testimonies, and the ordinances, which he commanded you.

18 Y harás lo recto y bueno en ojos de Jehová, para que te vaya bien, y entres y poseas la buena tierra que Jehová juró á tus padres;

And you shall do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord your God, that it may be well with you, and that you may go in and inherit the good land, which the Lord sware to your fathers,

19 Para que él eche á todos tus enemigos de delante de ti, como Jehová ha dicho.

to chase all your enemies from before your face, as the Lord said.

20 Cuando mañana te preguntare tu hijo, diciendo: ¿Qué significan los testimonios, y estatutos, y derechos, que Jehová nuestro Dios os mandó?

And it shall come to pass when your son shall ask you at a future time, saying, What are the testimonies, and the ordinances, and the judgements, which the Lord our God has commanded us?

21 Entonces dirás á tu hijo: Nosotros éramos siervos de Faraón en Egipto, y Jehová nos sacó de Egipto con mano fuerte;

Then shall you say to your son, We were slaves to Pharao in the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought us forth thence with a mighty hand, and with a high arm.

22 Y dió Jehová señales y milagros grandes y nocivos en Egipto, sobre Faraón y sobre toda su casa, delante de nuestros ojos;

And the Lord wrought signs and great and grievous wonders in Egypt, on Pharao and on his house before us.

23 Y sacónos de allá, para traernos y darnos la tierra que juró á nuestros padres;

And he brought us out thence to give us this land, which he sware to give to our fathers.

24 Y mandónos Jehová que ejecutásemos todos estos estatutos, y que temamos á Jehová nuestro Dios, porque nos vaya bien todos los días, y para que nos dé vida, como hoy.

And the Lord charged us to observe all these ordinances; to fear the Lord our God, that it may be well with us for ever, that we may live, as even today.

25 Y tendremos justicia cuando cuidáremos de poner por obra todos estos mandamientos delante de Jehová nuestro Dios, como él nos ha mandado.

And there shall be mercy to us, if we take heed to keep all these commands before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us.
