Notes on this text (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).
1 Κατ' εκείνον τον καιρόν είπε Κύριος προς εμέ, Λατόμησον εις σεαυτόν δύο πλάκας λιθίνας ως τας πρώτας, και ανάβα προς εμέ εις το όρος, και κάμε εις σεαυτόν κιβωτόν ξυλίνην.
1 At that time Yahweh said to me, “Cut two stone tablets like the first, and come up to me onto the mountain, and make an ark of wood.
2 Και εγώ θέλω γράψει επί τας πλάκας τα λόγια τα οποία ήσαν εις τας πρώτας πλάκας, τας οποίας συνέτριψας, και θέλεις εναποθέσει αυτάς εν τη κιβωτώ.
2 I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets which you broke, and you shall put them in the ark.”
3 Και έκαμα κιβωτόν εκ ξύλου σιττίμ, και ελατόμησα δύο πλάκας λιθίνας ως τας πρώτας, και ανέβην εις το όρος, έχων τας δύο πλάκας εις τας χείρας μου.
3 So I made an ark of acacia wood, and cut two stone tablets like the first, and went up onto the mountain, having the two tablets in my hand.
4 Και έγραψεν επί τας πλάκας, κατά την γραφήν την πρώτην, τας δέκα εντολάς, τας οποίας ελάλησε Κύριος προς εσάς εν τω όρει εκ μέσου του πυρός, εν τη ημέρα της συνάξεως· και έδωκεν αυτάς ο Κύριος εις εμέ.
4 He wrote on the tablets, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which Yahweh spoke to you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire in the day of the assembly; and Yahweh gave them to me.
5 Και επιστρέψας κατέβην από του όρους και ενέθεσα τας πλάκας εν τη κιβωτώ την οποίαν έκαμον· και είναι εκεί, καθώς προσέταξεν εις εμέ ο Κύριος.
5 I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tablets in the ark which I had made; and there they are as Yahweh commanded me.
6 Και οι υιοί Ισραήλ εσηκώθησαν από Βηρώθ-βενέ-ιακάν εις Μοσερά. Εκεί απέθανεν ο Ααρών και εκεί ετάφη· και ιεράτευσεν Ελεάζαρ ο υιός αυτού αντ' αυτού.
6 (The children of Israel traveled from Beeroth Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his place.
7 Εκείθεν εσηκώθησαν εις Γαδγάδ και από Γαδγάδ εις Ιοτβαθά, γην ποταμών υδάτων.
7 From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water.
8 Κατ' εκείνον τον καιρόν εξεχώρισεν ο Κύριος την φυλήν του Λευΐ, διά να βαστάζη την κιβωτόν της διαθήκης του Κυρίου, να παρίσταται ενώπιον του Κυρίου διά να υπηρετή αυτόν, και να ευλογή εν τω ονόματι αυτού, έως της ημέρας ταύτης.
8 At that time Yahweh set apart the tribe of Levi to bear the ark of Yahweh’s covenant, to stand before Yahweh to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
9 Διά τούτο δεν έχουσιν οι Λευΐται μερίδιον ή κληρονομίαν μεταξύ των αδελφών αυτών· ο Κύριος είναι η κληρονομία αυτών, καθώς Κύριος ο Θεός σου υπεσχέθη εις αυτούς.
9 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; Yahweh is his inheritance, according as Yahweh your God spoke to him.)
10 Και εγώ εστάθην επί του όρους, ως το πρότερον, τεσσαράκοντα ημέρας και τεσσαράκοντα νύκτας· και εισήκουσέ μου ο Κύριος και ταύτην την φοράν, και δεν ηθέλησεν ο Κύριος να σε εξολοθρεύση.
10 I stayed on the mountain, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and Yahweh listened to me that time also. Yahweh would not destroy you.
11 Και είπε Κύριος προς εμέ, Σηκώθητι, προπορεύου του λαού, διά να εισέλθωσι και κληρονομήσωσι την γην, την οποίαν ώμοσα προς τους πατέρας αυτών να δώσω εις αυτούς.
11 Yahweh said to me, “Arise, take your journey before the people; and they shall go in and possess the land which I swore to their fathers to give to them.”
12 Και τώρα, Ισραήλ, τι ζητεί Κύριος ο Θεός σου παρά σου, ειμή να φοβήσαι Κύριον τον Θεόν σου, να περιπατής εις πάσας τας οδούς αυτού και να αγαπάς αυτόν, και να λατρεύης Κύριον τον Θεόν σου εξ όλης της καρδίας σου και εξ όλης της ψυχής σου,
12 Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, but to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to serve Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13 να φυλάττης τας εντολάς του Κυρίου και τα διατάγματα αυτού, τα οποία εγώ προστάζω εις σε σήμερον διά το καλόν σου;
13 to keep Yahweh’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good?
14 Ιδού, Κυρίου του Θεού σου είναι ο ουρανός και ο ουρανός των ουρανών· η γη και πάντα τα εν αυτή.
14 Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein.
15 Και όμως τους πατέρας σου προετίμησεν ο Κύριος, να αγαπά αυτούς, και εξέλεξε το σπέρμα αυτών μετ' αυτούς, εσάς παρά πάντας τους λαούς, καθώς είναι την ημέραν ταύτην.
15 Only Yahweh had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their offspring after them, even you above all peoples, as it is today.
16 Περιτέμετε λοιπόν την ακροβυστίαν της καρδίας σας και μη σκληρύνητε πλέον τον τράχηλόν σας.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked.
17 Διότι Κύριος ο Θεός σας είναι Θεός των θεών και Κύριος των κυρίων, Θεός μέγας, ισχυρός και φοβερός, μη αποβλέπων εις πρόσωπον μηδέ λαμβάνων δώρον·
17 For Yahweh your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn’t respect persons or take bribes.
18 ποιών κρίσιν εις τον ορφανόν και εις την χήραν, και αγαπών τον ξένον, δίδων εις αυτόν τροφήν και ενδύματα.
18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing.
19 Αγαπάτε λοιπόν τον ξένον· διότι σεις ξένοι εστάθητε εν τη γη της Αιγύπτου.
19 Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20 Κύριον τον Θεόν σου θέλεις φοβείσθαι αυτόν θέλεις λατρεύει, και εις αυτόν θέλεις είσθαι προσηλωμένος, και εις το όνομα αυτού θέλεις ομνύει.
20 You shall fear Yahweh your God. You shall serve him. You shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name.
21 Αυτός είναι καύχημά σου, και αυτός είναι Θεός σου, όστις έκαμε διά σε τα μεγάλα ταύτα και τρομερά, τα οποία είδον οι οφθαλμοί σου.
21 He is your praise, and he is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.
22 Μετά εβδομήκοντα ψυχών κατέβησαν οι πατέρες σου εις την Αίγυπτον, και τώρα Κύριος ο Θεός σου σε κατέστησεν ως τα άστρα του ουρανού κατά το πλήθος.
22 Your fathers went down into Egypt with seventy persons; and now Yahweh your God has made you as the stars of the sky for multitude.

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).
For "we," says the apostle, "have been circumcised with the circumcision made without hands." And the prophet declares, "Circumcise the hardness of your heart." But the Sabbaths taught that we should continue day by day in God's service.
… "And now Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul?" Now these things did indeed make man glorious, by supplying what was wanting to him, …
