1 Ten cuidado de seguir todos los mandamientos que te doy hoy para que vivas y tengas muchos descendientes, y para que vayas y te apoderes del país que el Señor prometió darles a tus antepasados.
1 You shall observe to do all the commandments which I command you today, that you may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers.
2 Recuerda cómo durante estos cuarenta años el Señor tu Dios te ha llevado por todo el desierto, humillándote y poniéndote a prueba para saber en qué estabas pensando realmente y si ibas a cumplir sus mandamientos o no.
2 You shall remember all the way which Yahweh your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.
3 Te humilló y, cuando tuviste hambre, te dio a comer maná, que nadie, ni siquiera tú y tus antepasados, habían tenido antes. Esto fue para dejarte claro que los seres humanos no viven sólo de comer pan, sino de toda palabra que sale de la boca del Señor.
3 He humbled you, allowed you to be hungry, and fed you with manna, which you didn’t know, neither did your fathers know, that he might teach you that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of Yahweh’s mouth.
4 Durante estos cuarenta años tu ropa no se desgastó y tus pies no se hincharon.
4 Your clothing didn’t grow old on you, neither did your foot swell, these forty years.
5 Así que debes darte cuenta de que así como un padre disciplina a su hijo, el Señor tu Dios te disciplina a ti.
5 You shall consider in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so Yahweh your God disciplines you.
6 Por eso debes guardar los mandamientos del Señor tu Dios, siguiendo sus caminos y respetándolo.
6 You shall keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 Porque el Señor tu Dios te lleva a un buen país. Es una tierra de arroyos, estanques y manantiales que fluyen por los valles y bajan por las colinas;
7 For Yahweh your God brings you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of springs, and underground water flowing into valleys and hills;
8 Es una tierra que produce trigo, cebada, vides, higueras, granadas, aceite de oliva y miel.
8 a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey;
9 Es una tierra en la que no se agotan los alimentos, en la que se tiene todo lo necesario; una tierra cuyas rocas contienen mineral de hierro y cuyas colinas pueden ser explotadas para obtener cobre.
9 a land in which you shall eat bread without scarcity, you shall not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.
10 Cuando comas y te sacies, dale las gracias al Señor tu Dios por la buena tierra que te ha dado.
10 You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless Yahweh your God for the good land which he has given you.
11 Asegúrate de no olvidar al Señor tu Dios desobedeciendo sus mandamientos y reglas que te doy hoy.
11 Beware lest you forget Yahweh your God, in not keeping his commandments, his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you today;
12 Porque cuando comas y te sacies, cuando construyas casas hermosas para vivir,
12 lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built fine houses and lived in them;
13 y cuando tus rebaños y manadas crezcan, y tu plata y oro se acumulen, y todas tus posesiones aumenten,
13 and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;
14 entonces te enorgullecerás y te olvidarás del Señor tu Dios que te sacó de Egipto, de la prisión, de la casa de la esclavitud.
14 then your heart might be lifted up, and you forget Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
15 Él te guió a través del inmenso y aterrador desierto con sus venenosas serpientes y escorpiones, una tierra seca y sin agua. Te trajo agua de una roca de pedernal.
15 who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with venomous snakes and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who poured water for you out of the rock of flint;
16 Te alimentó en el desierto con maná que tus antepasados nunca habían conocido, humillándote y poniéndote a prueba, para que al final te fuera bien en el futuro.
16 who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers didn’t know, that he might humble you, and that he might prove you, to do you good at your latter end;
17 Puede que llegues a pensar: “Me hice rico con todo mi trabajo”.
17 and lest you say in your heart, “My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.”
18 Pero recuerda que es el Señor su Dios quien les da la capacidad de haceros ricos, para cumplir su acuerdo que prometió a sus antepasados y que aún hoy existe.
18 But you shall remember Yahweh your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore to your fathers, as it is today.
19 Si alguna vez te olvidas del Señor tu Dios, y vas tras otros dioses, adorándolos e inclinándote ante ellos, les aseguro ahora mismo que morirán definitivamente.
19 It shall be, if you shall forget Yahweh your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you today that you shall surely perish.
20 De la misma manera que el Señor destruyó las naciones mientras avanzabas, también morirás si no obedeces al Señor tu Dios.
20 As the nations that Yahweh makes to perish before you, so you shall perish, because you wouldn’t listen to Yahweh your God’s voice.

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).
… acciperent escam); as also Moses says in Deuteronomy: "And fed thee with manna, which thy fathers did not know, that thou mightest know that man doth not live by bread alone; but by every word of God proceeding out of His mouth doth man live."

For, when tempting Him, he said, "If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread." But the Lord repulsed him by the commandment of the law, saying, "It is written, Man doth not live by bread alone." As to those words [of His enemy,] "If thou be the Son of God," [the Lord] made no …
