1. `These are the statutes and the judgments which ye observe to do in the land which Jehovah, God of thy fathers, hath given to thee to possess it, all the days that ye are living on the ground:
|
1. These H428 are the statutes H2706 and judgments H4941 , which H834 ye shall observe H8104 to do H6213 in the land H776 , which H834 the LORD H3068 God H430 of thy fathers H1 giveth H5414 thee to possess H3423 it, all H3605 the days H3117 that H834 ye H859 live H2416 upon H5921 the earth H127 .
|
|
2. ye do utterly destroy all the places where the nations which ye are dispossessing served their gods, on the high mountains, and on the heights, and under every green tree;
|
2. Ye shall utterly destroy H6 H6 H853 all H3605 the places H4725 , wherein H834 H8033 the nations H1471 which H834 H853 ye H859 shall possess H3423 served H5647 H853 their gods H430 , upon H5921 the high H7311 mountains H2022 , and upon H5921 the hills H1389 , and under H8478 every H3605 green H7488 tree H6086 :
|
|
3. and ye have broken down their altars, and shivered their standing pillars, and their shrines ye burn with fire, and graven images of their gods ye cut down, and have destroyed their name out of that place.
|
3. And ye shall overthrow H5422 H853 their altars H4196 , and break H7665 H853 their pillars H4676 , and burn H8313 their groves H842 with fire H784 ; and ye shall hew down H1438 the graven images H6456 of their gods H430 , and destroy H6 H853 the names H8034 of them out of H4480 that H1931 place H4725 .
|
|
4. `Ye do not do so to Jehovah your God;
|
4. Ye shall not H3808 do H6213 so H3651 unto the LORD H3068 your God H430 .
|
|
5. but unto the place which Jehovah your God doth choose out of all your tribes to put His name there, to His tabernacle ye seek, and thou hast entered thither,
|
5. But H3588 H518 unto H413 the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 shall choose H977 out of all H4480 H3605 your tribes H7626 to put H7760 H853 his name H8034 there H8033 , even unto his habitation H7933 shall ye seek H1875 , and thither H8033 thou shalt come H935 :
|
|
6. and hast brought in thither your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and your vows, and your free-will offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
|
6. And thither H8033 ye shall bring H935 your burnt offerings H5930 , and your sacrifices H2077 , and your tithes H4643 , and H853 heave offerings H8641 of your hand H3027 , and your vows H5088 , and your freewill offerings H5071 , and the firstlings H1062 of your herds H1241 and of your flocks H6629 :
|
|
7. and ye have eaten there before Jehovah your God, and have rejoiced in every putting forth of your hand, ye and your households, with which Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee.
|
7. And there H8033 ye shall eat H398 before H6440 the LORD H3068 your God H430 , and ye shall rejoice H8055 in all H3605 that ye put H4916 your hand H3027 unto, ye H859 and your households H1004 , wherein H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath blessed H1288 thee.
|
|
8. `Ye do not do according to all that we are doing here to-day, each anything that is right in his own eyes,
|
8. Ye shall not H3808 do H6213 after all H3605 the things that H834 we H587 do H6213 here H6311 this day H3117 , every man H376 whatsoever H3605 is right H3477 in his own eyes H5869 .
|
|
9. for ye have not come in hitherto unto the rest, and unto the inheritance, which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee;
|
9. For H3588 ye are not H3808 as yet H5704 H6258 come H935 to H413 the rest H4496 and to H413 the inheritance H5159 , which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 giveth H5414 you.
|
|
10. and ye have passed over the Jordan, and have dwelt in the land which Jehovah your God is causing you to inherit, and He hath given rest to you from all your enemies round about, and ye have dwelt confidently:
|
10. But when ye go over H5674 H853 Jordan H3383 , and dwell H3427 in the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 giveth you to inherit H5157 H853 , and when he giveth you rest H5117 from all H4480 H3605 your enemies H341 round about H4480 H5439 , so that ye dwell H3427 in safety H983 ;
|
|
11. `And it hath been, the place on which Jehovah your God doth fix to cause His name to tabernacle there, thither ye bring in all that which I am commanding you, your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, and all the choice of your vows which ye vow to Jehovah;
|
11. Then there shall be H1961 a place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 shall choose H977 to cause his name H8034 to dwell H7931 there H8033 ; thither H8033 shall ye bring H935 H853 all H3605 that H834 I H595 command H6680 you ; your burnt offerings H5930 , and your sacrifices H2077 , your tithes H4643 , and the heave offering H8641 of your hand H3027 , and all H3605 your choice H4005 vows H5088 which H834 ye vow H5087 unto the LORD H3068 :
|
|
12. and ye have rejoiced before Jehovah your God, ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your men-servants, and your handmaids, and the Levite who is within your gates, for he hath no part and inheritance with you.
|
12. And ye shall rejoice H8055 before H6440 the LORD H3068 your God H430 , ye H859 , and your sons H1121 , and your daughters H1323 , and your menservants H5650 , and your maidservants H519 , and the Levite H3881 that H834 is within your gates H8179 ; forasmuch H3588 as he hath no H369 part H2506 nor inheritance H5159 with H854 you.
|
|
13. `Take heed to thee, lest thou cause thy burnt-offerings to ascend in any place which thou seest,
|
13. Take heed H8104 to thyself that H6435 thou offer H5927 not thy burnt offerings H5930 in every H3605 place H4725 that H834 thou seest H7200 :
|
|
14. except in the place which Jehovah doth choose in one of thy tribes, there thou dost cause thy burnt-offerings to ascend, and there thou dost do all that which I am commanding thee.
|
14. But H3588 H518 in the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 shall choose H977 in one H259 of thy tribes H7626 , there H8033 thou shalt offer H5927 thy burnt offerings H5930 , and there H8033 thou shalt do H6213 all H3605 that H834 I H595 command H6680 thee.
|
|
15. `Only, with all the desire of thy soul thou dost sacrifice, and hast eaten flesh according to the blessing of Jehovah thy God which He hath given to thee, in all thy gates; the unclean and the clean do eat it, as of the roe, and as of the hart.
|
15. Notwithstanding H7535 thou mayest kill H2076 and eat H398 flesh H1320 in all H3605 thy gates H8179 , whatsoever H3605 thy soul H5315 lusteth after H185 , according to the blessing H1293 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 which H834 he hath given H5414 thee : the unclean H2931 and the clean H2889 may eat H398 thereof , as of the roebuck H6643 , and as of the hart H354 .
|
|
16. `Only, the blood ye do not eat -- on the earth thou dost pour it as water;
|
16. Only H7535 ye shall not H3808 eat H398 the blood H1818 ; ye shall pour H8210 it upon H5921 the earth H776 as water H4325 .
|
|
17. thou art not able to eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, and of thy new wine, and thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd and of thy flock, and any of thy vows which thou vowest, and thy free-will offerings, and heave-offering of thy hand;
|
17. Thou mayest H3201 not H3808 eat H398 within thy gates H8179 the tithe H4643 of thy corn H1715 , or of thy wine H8492 , or of thy oil H3323 , or the firstlings H1062 of thy herds H1241 or of thy flock H6629 , nor any H3605 of thy vows H5088 which H834 thou vowest H5087 , nor thy freewill offerings H5071 , or heave offering H8641 of thine hand H3027 :
|
|
18. but before Jehovah thy God thou dost eat it, in the place which Jehovah thy God doth fix on, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy man-servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, and thou hast rejoiced before Jehovah thy God in every putting forth of thy hand;
|
18. But H3588 H518 thou must eat H398 them before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall choose H977 , thou H859 , and thy son H1121 , and thy daughter H1323 , and thy manservant H5650 , and thy maidservant H519 , and the Levite H3881 that H834 is within thy gates H8179 : and thou shalt rejoice H8055 before H6440 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 in all H3605 that thou puttest H4916 thine hands H3027 unto.
|
|
19. take heed to thee lest thou forsake the Levite all thy days on thy ground.
|
19. Take heed H8104 to thyself that thou forsake not H6435 H5800 H853 the Levite H3881 as long as thou livest H3605 H3117 upon H5921 the earth H127 .
|
|
20. `When Jehovah thy God doth enlarge thy border, as He hath spoken to thee, and thou hast said, Let me eat flesh -- for thy soul desireth to eat flesh -- of all the desire of thy soul thou dost eat flesh.
|
20. When H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall enlarge H7337 H853 thy border H1366 , as H834 he hath promised H1696 thee , and thou shalt say H559 , I will eat H398 flesh H1320 , because H3588 thy soul H5315 longeth H183 to eat H398 flesh H1320 ; thou mayest eat H398 flesh H1320 , whatsoever H3605 thy soul H5315 lusteth after H185 .
|
|
21. `When the place is far from thee which Jehovah thy God doth choose to put His name there, then thou hast sacrificed of thy herd and of thy flock which Jehovah hath given to thee, as I have commanded thee, and hast eaten within thy gates, of all the desire of thy soul;
|
21. If H3588 the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath chosen H977 to put H7760 his name H8034 there H8033 be too far H7368 from H4480 thee , then thou shalt kill H2076 of thy herd H4480 H1241 and of thy flock H4480 H6629 , which H834 the LORD H3068 hath given H5414 thee as H834 I have commanded H6680 thee , and thou shalt eat H398 in thy gates H8179 whatsoever H3605 thy soul H5315 lusteth after H185 .
|
|
22. only, as the roe and the hart is eaten, so dost thou eat it; the unclean and the clean doth alike eat it.
|
22. Even H389 as H834 H853 the roebuck H6643 and the hart H354 is eaten H398 , so H3651 thou shalt eat H398 them : the unclean H2931 and the clean H2889 shall eat H398 of them alike H3162 .
|
|
23. `Only, be sure not to eat the blood, for the blood is the life, and thou dost not eat the life with the flesh;
|
23. Only H7535 be sure H2388 that thou eat H398 not H1115 the blood H1818 : for H3588 the blood H1818 is the life H5315 ; and thou mayest not H3808 eat H398 the life H5315 with H5973 the flesh H1320 .
|
|
24. thou dost not eat it, on the earth thou dost pour it as water;
|
24. Thou shalt not H3808 eat H398 it ; thou shalt pour H8210 it upon H5921 the earth H776 as water H4325 .
|
|
25. thou dost not eat it, in order that it may be well with thee, and with thy sons after thee, when thou dost that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah.
|
25. Thou shalt not H3808 eat H398 it; that H4616 it may go well H3190 with thee , and with thy children H1121 after H310 thee, when H3588 thou shalt do H6213 that which is right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
26. `Only, thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou dost take up, and hast gone in unto the place which Jehovah doth choose,
|
26. Only H7535 thy holy things H6944 which H834 thou hast H1961 , and thy vows H5088 , thou shalt take H5375 , and go H935 unto H413 the place H4725 which H834 the LORD H3068 shall choose H977 :
|
|
27. and thou hast made thy burnt-offerings -- the flesh and the blood -- on the altar of Jehovah thy God; and the blood of thy sacrifices is poured out by the altar of Jehovah thy God, and the flesh thou dost eat.
|
27. And thou shalt offer H6213 thy burnt offerings H5930 , the flesh H1320 and the blood H1818 , upon H5921 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 : and the blood H1818 of thy sacrifices H2077 shall be poured out H8210 upon H5921 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 , and thou shalt eat H398 the flesh H1320 .
|
|
28. Observe, and thou hast obeyed all these words which I am commanding thee, in order that it may be well with thee and with thy sons after thee -- to the age, when thou dost that which is good and right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God.
|
28. Observe H8104 and hear H8085 H853 all H3605 these H428 words H1697 which H834 I H595 command H6680 thee, that H4616 it may go well H3190 with thee , and with thy children H1121 after H310 thee forever H5704 H5769 , when H3588 thou doest H6213 that which is good H2896 and right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430 .
|
|
29. `When Jehovah thy God doth cut off the nations -- whither thou art going in to possess them -- from thy presence, and thou hast possessed them, and hast dwelt in their land --
|
29. When H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall cut off H3772 H853 the nations H1471 from before H4480 H6440 thee, whither H834 H8033 thou H859 goest H935 to possess H3423 them , and thou succeedest H3423 them , and dwellest H3427 in their land H776 ;
|
|
30. take heed to thee, lest thou be snared after them, after their being destroyed out of thy presence, and lest thou enquire about their gods, saying, How do these nations serve their gods, and I do so -- even I?
|
30. Take heed H8104 to thyself that H6435 thou be not snared H5367 by following H310 them , after that H310 they be destroyed H8045 from before H4480 H6440 thee ; and that H6435 thou inquire H1875 not after their gods H430 , saying H559 , How H349 did these H428 nations H1471 serve H5647 H853 their gods H430 ? even so H3651 will I H589 do H6213 likewise H1571 .
|
|
31. `Thou dost not do so to Jehovah thy God; for every abomination of Jehovah which He is hating they have done to their gods, for even their sons and their daughters they burn with fire to their gods.
|
31. Thou shalt not H3808 do H6213 so H3651 unto the LORD H3068 thy God H430 : for H3588 every H3605 abomination H8441 to the LORD H3068 , which H834 he hateth H8130 , have they done H6213 unto their gods H430 ; for H3588 even H1571 H853 their sons H1121 and their daughters H1323 they have burnt H8313 in the fire H784 to their gods H430 .
|
|
32. The whole thing which I am commanding you -- it ye observe to do; thou dost not add unto it, nor diminish from it.
|
32. H853 What thing soever H3605 H1697 H834 I H595 command H6680 you, observe H8104 to do H6213 it : thou shalt not H3808 add H3254 thereto H5921 , nor H3808 diminish H1639 from H4480 it.
