Deuteronomy 11

1 You shall therefore love the LORD your God and always keep His charge, His statutes, His ordinances, and His commandments.

1 «فَأَحْبِبِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ وَٱحْفَظْ حُقُوقَهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ وَوَصَايَاهُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ.

2 Know this day that it is not your children who have known and seen the discipline of the LORD your God: His greatness, His mighty hand, and His outstretched arm;

2 وَٱعْلَمُوا ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنِّي لَسْتُ أُرِيدُ بَنِيكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا وَلَا رَأَوْا تَأْدِيبَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، عَظَمَتَهُ وَيَدَهُ ٱلشَّدِيدَةَ وَذِرَاعَهُ ٱلرَّفِيعَةَ

3 the signs and works He did in Egypt to Pharaoh king of Egypt and all his land;

3 وَآيَاتِهِ وَصَنَائِعَهُ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا فِي مِصْرَ بِفِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَبِكُلِّ أَرْضِهِ،

4 what He did to the Egyptian army and horses and chariots when He made the waters of the Red Sea engulf them as they pursued you, and how He destroyed them completely, even to this day;

4 وَٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا بِجَيْشِ مِصْرَ بِخَيْلِهِمْ وَمَرَاكِبِهِمْ، حَيْثُ أَطَافَ مِيَاهَ بَحْرِ سُوفٍ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ حِينَ سَعَوْا وَرَاءَكُمْ، فَأَبَادَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ،

5 what He did for you in the wilderness until you reached this place;

5 وَٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا لَكُمْ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ حَتَّى جِئْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ،

6 and what He did in the midst of all the Israelites to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab the Reubenite, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing that belonged to them.

6 وَٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا بِدَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ ٱبْنَيْ أَلِيآبَ بْنِ رَأُوبَيْنَ ٱللَّذَيْنِ فَتَحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ فَاهَا وَٱبْتَلَعَتْهُمَا مَعَ بُيُوتِهِمَا وَخِيَامِهِمَا وَكُلِّ ٱلْمَوْجُودَاتِ ٱلتَّابِعَةِ لَهُمَا فِي وَسْطِ كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

7 For it is your own eyes that have seen every great work that the LORD has done.

7 لِأَنَّ أَعْيُنَكُمْ هِيَ ٱلَّتِي أَبْصَرَتْ كُلَّ صَنَائِعِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا.

8 You shall therefore keep every commandment I am giving you today, so that you may have the strength to go in and possess the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess,

8 «فَٱحْفَظُوا كُلَّ ٱلْوَصَايَا ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ لِكَيْ تَتَشَدَّدُوا وَتَدْخُلُوا وَتَمْتَلِكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكُوهَا،

9 and so that you may live long in the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.

9 وَلِكَيْ تُطِيلُوا ٱلْأَيَّامَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا لَهُمْ وَلِنَسْلِهِمْ، أَرْضٌ تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا.

10 For the land that you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated on foot, like a vegetable garden.

10 لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكَهَا لَيْسَتْ مِثْلَ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ ٱلَّتِي خَرَجْتَ مِنْهَا، حَيْثُ كُنْتَ تَزْرَعُ زَرْعَكَ وَتَسْقِيهِ بِرِجْلِكَ كَبُسْتَانِ بُقُولٍ.

11 But the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess is a land of mountains and valleys that drinks in the rain from heaven.

11 بَلْ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ إِلَيْهَا لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكُوهَا، هِيَ أَرْضُ جِبَالٍ وَبِقَاعٍ. مِنْ مَطَرِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ تَشْرَبُ مَاءً.

12 It is a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning to the end of the year.

12 أَرْضٌ يَعْتَنِي بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. عَيْنَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ عَلَيْهَا دَائِمًا مِنْ أَوَّلِ ٱلسَّنَةِ إِلَى آخِرِهَا.

13 So if you carefully obey the commandments I am giving you today, to love the LORD your God and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,

13 «فَإِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ لِوَصَايَايَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتُحِبُّوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَتَعْبُدُوهُ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَمِنْ كُلِّ أَنْفُسِكُمْ،

14 then I will provide rain for your land in season, the autumn and spring rains, that you may gather your grain, new wine, and oil.

14 أُعْطِي مَطَرَ أَرْضِكُمْ فِي حِينِهِ: ٱلْمُبَكِّرَ وَٱلْمُتَأَخِّرَ. فَتَجْمَعُ حِنْطَتَكَ وَخَمْرَكَ وَزَيْتَكَ.

15 And I will provide grass in the fields for your livestock, and you will eat and be satisfied.

15 وَأُعْطِي لِبَهَائِمِكَ عُشْبًا فِي حَقْلِكَ فَتَأْكُلُ أَنْتَ وَتَشْبَعُ.

16 But be careful that you are not enticed to turn aside to worship and bow down to other gods,

16 فَٱحْتَرِزُوا مِنْ أَنْ تَنْغَوِيَ قُلُوبُكُمْ فَتَزِيغُوا وَتَعْبُدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى وَتَسْجُدُوا لَهَا،

17 or the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you. He will shut the heavens so that there will be no rain, nor will the land yield its produce, and you will soon perish from the good land that the LORD is giving you.

17 فَيَحْمَى غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَيُغْلِقُ ٱلسَّمَاءَ فَلَا يَكُونُ مَطَرٌ، وَلَا تُعْطِي ٱلْأَرْضُ غَلَّتَهَا، فَتَبِيدُونَ سَرِيعًا عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْجَيِّدَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.

18 «فَضَعُوا كَلِمَاتِي هَذِهِ عَلَى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَنُفُوسِكُمْ، وَٱرْبُطُوهَا عَلَامَةً عَلَى أَيْدِيكُمْ، وَلْتَكُنْ عَصَائِبَ بَيْنَ عُيُونِكُمْ،

19 Teach them to your children, speaking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

19 وَعَلِّمُوهَا أَوْلَادَكُمْ، مُتَكَلِّمِينَ بِهَا حِينَ تَجْلِسُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، وَحِينَ تَمْشُونَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، وَحِينَ تَنَامُونَ، وَحِينَ تَقُومُونَ.

20 Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates,

20 وَٱكْتُبْهَا عَلَى قَوَائِمِ أَبْوَابِ بَيْتِكَ وَعَلَى أَبْوَابِكَ،

21 so that as long as the heavens are above the earth, your days and those of your children may be multiplied in the land that the LORD swore to give your fathers.

21 لِكَيْ تَكْثُرَ أَيَّامُكَ وَأَيَّامُ أَوْلَادِكَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، كَأَيَّامِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

22 For if you carefully keep all these commandments I am giving you to follow—to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, and to hold fast to Him—

22 لِأَنَّهُ إِذَا حَفِظْتُمْ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَصَايَا ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا لِتَعْمَلُوهَا، لِتُحِبُّوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَتَسْلُكُوا فِي جَمِيعِ طُرُقِهِ وَتَلْتَصِقُوا بِهِ،

23 then the LORD will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and stronger than you.

23 يَطْرُدُ ٱلرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمْ، فَتَرِثُونَ شُعُوبًا أَكْبَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْكُمْ.

24 Every place where the sole of your foot treads will be yours. Your territory will extend from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the Euphrates River to the Western Sea.

24 كُلُّ مَكَانٍ تَدُوسُهُ بُطُونُ أَقْدَامِكُمْ يَكُونُ لَكُمْ. مِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَلُبْنَانَ. مِنَ ٱلنَّهْرِ، نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ، إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْغَرْبِيِّ يَكُونُ تُخْمُكُمْ.

25 No man will be able to stand against you; the LORD your God will put the fear and dread of you upon all the land, wherever you set foot, as He has promised you.

25 لَا يَقِفُ إِنْسَانٌ فِي وَجْهِكُمْ. اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ يَجْعَلُ خَشْيَتَكُمْ وَرُعْبَكُمْ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي تَدُوسُونَهَا كَمَا كَلَّمَكُمْ.

26 See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a curse—

26 «اُنْظُرْ. أَنَا وَاضِعٌ أَمَامَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ بَرَكَةً وَلَعْنَةً:

27 a blessing if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am giving you today,

27 ٱلْبَرَكَةُ إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ لِوَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ.

28 but a curse if you disobey the commandments of the LORD your God and turn aside from the path I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known.

28 وَٱللَّعْنَةُ إِذَا لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِوَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَزُغْتُمْ عَنِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتَذْهَبُوا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لَمْ تَعْرِفُوهَا.

29 When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.

29 وَإِذَا جَاءَ بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِكِيْ تَمْتَلِكَهَا، فَٱجْعَلِ ٱلْبَرَكَةَ عَلَى جَبَلِ جِرِزِّيمَ، وَٱللَّعْنَةَ عَلَى جَبَلِ عِيبَالَ.

30 Are not these mountains across the Jordan, west of the road toward the sunset, in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Arabah opposite Gilgal near the Oak of Moreh?

30 أَمَا هُمَا فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، وَرَاءَ طَرِيقِ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْعَرَبَةِ، مُقَابِلَ ٱلْجِلْجَالِ، بِجَانِبِ بَلُّوطَاتِ مُورَةَ؟

31 For you are about to cross the Jordan to enter and possess the land that the LORD your God is giving you. When you take possession of it and settle in it,

31 لِأَنَّكُمْ عَابِرُونَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ لِتَدْخُلُوا وَتَمْتَلِكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ يُعْطِيكُمْ. تَمْتَلِكُونَهَا وَتَسْكُنُونَهَا.

32 be careful to follow all the statutes and ordinances that I am setting before you today.

32 فَٱحْفَظُوا جَمِيعَ ٱلْفَرَائِضِ وَٱلْأَحْكَامِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا وَاضِعٌ أَمَامَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتَعْمَلُوهَا.
