1 Y HABLÓ Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Jehovah your God.
2 Habla á los hijos de Israel, y diles: Yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their customs.
3 No haréis como hacen en la tierra de Egipto, en la cual morasteis; ni haréis como hacen en la tierra de Canaán, á la cual yo os conduzco; ni andaréis en sus estatutos.
4 Mine ordinances shall ye do and my statutes shall ye observe to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God.
4 Mis derechos pondréis por obra, y mis estatutos guardaréis, andando en ellos: Yo Jehová vuestro Dios.
5 And ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, by which the man that doeth them shall live: I am Jehovah.
