Deuteronomy 6 (WEBP)

[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] 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] 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] Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is one.
[5] You shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.
[6] These words, which I command you today, shall be on your heart;
[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] You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
[9] You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates.
[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] 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] then beware lest you forget Yahweh, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
[13] You shall fear Yahweh your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name.
[14] You shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who are around you,
[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] You shall not tempt Yahweh your God, as you tempted him in Massah.
[17] You shall diligently keep the commandments of Yahweh your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he has commanded you.
[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] to thrust out all your enemies from before you, as Yahweh has spoken.
[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] then you shall tell your son, “We were Pharaoh’s slaves in Egypt. Yahweh brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand;
[22] and Yahweh showed great and awesome signs and wonders on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;
[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] 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] It shall be righteousness to us, if we observe to do all these commandments before Yahweh our God, as he has commanded us.”

[1] και αυται αι εντολαι και τα δικαιωματα και τα κριματα οσα ενετειλατο κυριος ο θεος ημων διδαξαι υμας ποιειν ουτως εν τη γη εις ην υμεις εισπορευεσθε εκει κληρονομησαι αυτην
[2] ινα φοβησθε κυριον τον θεον υμων φυλασσεσθαι παντα τα δικαιωματα αυτου και τας εντολας αυτου οσας εγω εντελλομαι σοι σημερον συ και οι υιοι σου και οι υιοι των υιων σου πασας τας ημερας της ζωης σου ινα μακροημερευσητε
[3] και ακουσον ισραηλ και φυλαξαι ποιειν οπως ευ σοι η και ινα πληθυνθητε σφοδρα καθαπερ ελαλησεν κυριος ο θεος των πατερων σου δουναι σοι γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι και ταυτα τα δικαιωματα και τα κριματα οσα ενετειλατο κυριος τοις υιοις ισραηλ εν τη ερημω εξελθοντων αυτων εκ γης αιγυπτου
[4] ακουε ισραηλ κυριος ο θεος ημων κυριος εις εστιν
[5] και αγαπησεις κυριον τον θεον σου εξ ολης της καρδιας σου και εξ ολης της ψυχης σου και εξ ολης της δυναμεως σου
[6] και εσται τα ρηματα ταυτα οσα εγω εντελλομαι σοι σημερον εν τη καρδια σου και εν τη ψυχη σου
[7] και προβιβασεις αυτα τους υιους σου και λαλησεις εν αυτοις καθημενος εν οικω και πορευομενος εν οδω και κοιταζομενος και διανισταμενος
[8] και αφαψεις αυτα εις σημειον επι της χειρος σου και εσται ασαλευτον προ οφθαλμων σου
[9] και γραψετε αυτα επι τας φλιας των οικιων υμων και των πυλων υμων
[10] και εσται οταν εισαγαγη σε κυριος ο θεος σου εις την γην ην ωμοσεν τοις πατρασιν σου τω αβρααμ και ισαακ και ιακωβ δουναι σοι πολεις μεγαλας και καλας ας ουκ ωκοδομησας
[11] οικιας πληρεις παντων αγαθων ας ουκ ενεπλησας λακκους λελατομημενους ους ουκ εξελατομησας αμπελωνας και ελαιωνας ους ου κατεφυτευσας και φαγων και εμπλησθεις
[12] προσεχε σεαυτω μη επιλαθη κυριου του θεου σου του εξαγαγοντος σε εκ γης αιγυπτου εξ οικου δουλειας
[13] κυριον τον θεον σου φοβηθηση και αυτω λατρευσεις και προς αυτον κολληθηση και τω ονοματι αυτου ομη
[14] ου πορευσεσθε οπισω θεων ετερων απο των θεων των εθνων των περικυκλω υμων

[22] και εδωκεν κυριος σημεια και τερατα μεγαλα και πονηρα εν αιγυπτω εν φαραω και εν τω οικω αυτου ενωπιον ημων
[23] και ημας εξηγαγεν εκειθεν ινα εισαγαγη ημας δουναι ημιν την γην ταυτην ην ωμοσεν δουναι τοις πατρασιν ημων
[24] και ενετειλατο ημιν κυριος ποιειν παντα τα δικαιωματα ταυτα φοβεισθαι κυριον τον θεον ημων ινα ευ η ημιν πασας τας ημερας ινα ζωμεν ωσπερ και σημερον
[25] και ελεημοσυνη εσται ημιν εαν φυλασσωμεθα ποιειν πασας τας εντολας ταυτας εναντιον κυριου του θεου ημων καθα ενετειλατο ημιν κυριος
