1 Estos son, pues, los Mandamientos, los Estatutos y las Ordenanzas que Yavé su ʼElohim ordenó que les enseñara para que los practiquen en la tierra a la cual pasan para poseerla,
1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Yahweh your God commanded to teach you, that you might do them in the land that you go over to possess;
2 a fin de que temas a Yavé tu ʼElohim, tú, tu hijo y tu nieto, y guarden todos los días de tu vida todos sus Estatutos y Mandamientos que yo te ordeno para que tus días sean prolongados.
2 that you might fear Yahweh your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you—you, your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.
3 Oye pues, oh Israel, y cuidarás de hacerlo, como Yavé, el ʼElohim de tus antepasados, te habló para que te vaya bien y te multipliques muchísimo en la tierra que fluye leche y miel.
3 Hear therefore, Israel, and observe to do it, that it may be well with you, and that you may increase mightily, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has promised to you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
4 Oye, Israel: Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, Yavé es uno.
4 Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is one.
5 Amarás a Yavé tu ʼElohim con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu fuerza.
5 You shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
6 Estas palabras que te ordeno hoy permanecerán sobre tu corazón.
6 These words, which I command you today, shall be on your heart;
7 Las inculcarás a tus hijos y hablarás de ellas sentado en tu casa, cuando andes por el camino, al acostarte y al levantarte.
7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
8 Las atarás como señal sobre tu mano, y estarán como frontales entre tus ojos.
8 You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
9 Las escribirás en las jambas de tu casa y en tus puertas.
9 You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates.
10 Sucederá que cuando Yavé tu ʼElohim te introduzca en la tierra que juró a tus antepasados, a Abraham, a Isaac y a Jacob, que te daría una tierra que tiene grandes y espléndidas ciudades que tú no edificaste,
10 It shall be, when Yahweh your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities which you didn’t build,
11 con casas llenas de todo bien que tú no llenaste, con pozos excavados que tú no cavaste, y con viñas y olivares que tú no plantaste, y comas y te hartes,
11 and houses full of all good things which you didn’t fill, and cisterns dug out which you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees which you didn’t plant, and you shall eat and be full;
12 guárdate de olvidar a Yavé Quien te sacó de la tierra de Egipto, de la casa de esclavitud.
12 then beware lest you forget Yahweh, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
13 Temerás a Yavé tu ʼElohim. A Él servirás y en su Nombre jurarás.
13 You shall fear Yahweh your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name.
14 No seguirán otros ʼelohim, los ʼelohim de los pueblos que los rodean,
14 You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who are around you,
15 porque Yavé tu ʼElohim, Quien mora en medio de ti, es celoso, no sea que el furor de Yavé tu ʼElohim se encienda contra ti y te destruya de sobre la superficie de la tierra.
15 for Yahweh your God among you is a jealous God, lest the anger of Yahweh your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.
16 No tentarán a Yavé su ʼElohim, como lo tentaron en Masa.
16 You shall not tempt Yahweh your God, as you tempted him in Massah.
17 Guarden diligentemente los Mandamientos de Yavé su ʼElohim, sus Testimonios y sus Estatutos que les ordenó.
17 You shall diligently keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded you.
18 Harás lo recto y lo bueno ante Yavé para que te vaya bien, y entres y poseas la buena tierra que Yavé prometió con juramento a tus antepasados,
18 You shall do that which is right and good in Yahweh’s sight, that it may be well with you and that you may go in and possess the good land which Yahweh swore to your fathers,
19 para que Él eche a todos tus enemigos de delante de ti, como Yavé prometió.
19 to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as Yahweh has spoken.
20 Cuando tu hijo te pregunte mañana: ¿Qué significan los Testimonios, los Estatutos y las Ordenanzas que Yavé nuestro ʼElohim les ordenó?
20 When your son asks you in time to come, saying, “What do the testimonies, the statutes, and the ordinances, which Yahweh our God has commanded you mean?”
21 Entonces dirás a tu hijo: Nosotros éramos esclavos de Faraón en Egipto, pero Yavé nos sacó de Egipto con mano fuerte.
21 then you shall tell your son, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt. Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;
22 Ante nuestros propios ojos, Yavé hizo señales y grandes prodigios en Egipto contra Faraón y contra toda su casa,
22 and Yahweh showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;
23 y nos sacó de allá para traernos y darnos la tierra que prometió con juramento a nuestros antepasados.
23 and he brought us out from there, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.
24 Yavé nos ordenó practicar todos estos Estatutos y temer a Yavé nuestro ʼElohim para que siempre nos vaya bien y para que nos conserve la vida, como sucede hoy.
24 Yahweh commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as we are today.
25 Será justicia para nosotros si tenemos el cuidado de cumplir todo este Mandamiento delante de Yavé nuestro ʼElohim, tal como Él nos ordenó.
25 It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all these commandments before Yahweh our God, as he has commanded us.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… god at all); or shall it be (what is really the case) the Maker of heaven and earth, whom also the prophets proclaimed,--whom Christ, too, confesses as His Father,-- whom also the law announces, saying: "Hear, O Israel; The Lord thy God is one God?"
Can it at any time or place be an unrighteous thing for a man to love God with all his heart, with all his soul, and with all his mind, and his neighbour as himself?

The Lord therefore confuted him out of the law, when He said, "It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God;" pointing out by the word contained in the law that which is the duty of man, that he should not tempt God; and in regard to Himself, since He appeared in human form, [declaring] that He …
