Deuteronomy 11

Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.

ama itaque Dominum Deum tuum et observa praecepta eius et caerimonias iudicia atque mandata omni tempore

And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,

cognoscite hodie quae ignorant filii vestri qui non viderunt disciplinam Domini Dei vestri magnalia eius et robustam manum extentumque brachium

And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

signa et opera quae fecit in medio Aegypti Pharaoni regi et universae terrae eius

And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;

omnique exercitui Aegyptiorum et equis ac curribus quomodo operuerint eos aquae Rubri maris cum vos persequerentur et deleverit eos Dominus usque in praesentem diem

And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place;

vobisque quae fecerit in solitudine donec veniretis ad hunc locum

And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:

et Dathan atque Abiram filiis Heliab qui fuit filius Ruben quos aperto ore suo terra absorbuit cum domibus et tabernaculis et universa substantia eorum quam habebant in medio Israhelis

But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.

oculi vestri viderunt omnia opera Domini magna quae fecit

Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go to possess it;

ut custodiatis universa mandata illius quae ego hodie praecipio vobis et possitis introire et possidere terram ad quam ingredimini

And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

multoque in ea vivatis tempore quam sub iuramento pollicitus est Dominus patribus vestris et semini eorum lacte et melle manantem

For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:

terra enim ad quam ingredieris possidendam non est sicut terra Aegypti de qua existi ubi iacto semine in hortorum morem aquae ducuntur inriguae

But the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven:

sed montuosa est et campestris de caelo expectans pluvias

A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.

quam Dominus Deus tuus semper invisit et oculi illius in ea sunt a principio anni usque ad finem eius

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

si ergo oboedieritis mandatis meis quae hodie praecipio vobis ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum et serviatis ei in toto corde vestro et in tota anima vestra

That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.

dabo pluviam terrae vestrae temporivam et serotinam ut colligatis frumentum et vinum et oleum

And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.

faenum ex agris ad pascenda iumenta et ut ipsi comedatis ac saturemini

Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;

cavete ne forte decipiatur cor vestrum et recedatis a Domino serviatisque diis alienis et adoretis eos

And then the LORD'S wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.

iratusque Dominus claudat caelum et pluviae non descendant nec terra det germen suum pereatisque velociter de terra optima quam Dominus daturus est vobis

Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

ponite haec verba mea in cordibus et in animis vestris et suspendite ea pro signo in manibus et inter vestros oculos conlocate

And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

docete filios vestros ut illa meditentur quando sederis in domo tua et ambulaveris in via et accubueris atque surrexeris

And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:

scribes ea super postes et ianuas domus tuae

That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

ut multiplicentur dies tui et filiorum tuorum in terra quam iuravit Dominus patribus tuis ut daret eis quamdiu caelum inminet terrae

For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;

si enim custodieritis mandata quae ego praecipio vobis et feceritis ea ut diligatis Dominum Deum vestrum et ambuletis in omnibus viis eius adherentes ei

Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.

disperdet Dominus omnes gentes istas ante faciem vestram et possidebitis eas quae maiores et fortiores vobis sunt

Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.

omnis locus quem calcaverit pes vester vester erit a deserto et Libano a flumine magno Eufraten usque ad mare occidentale erunt termini vestri

There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you.

nullus stabit contra vos terrorem vestrum et formidinem dabit Dominus Deus vester super omnem terram quam calcaturi estis sicut locutus est vobis

Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;

en propono in conspectu vestro hodie benedictionem et maledictionem

A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:

benedictionem si oboedieritis mandatis Domini Dei vestri quae ego praecipio vobis

And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.

maledictionem si non audieritis mandata Domini Dei vestri sed recesseritis de via quam ego nunc ostendo vobis et ambulaveritis post deos alienos quos ignoratis

And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.

cum introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in terram ad quam pergis habitandam pones benedictionem super montem Garizim maledictionem super montem Hebal

Are they not on the other side Jordan, by the way where the sun goeth down, in the land of the Canaanites, which dwell in the champaign over against Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh?

qui sunt trans Iordanem post viam quae vergit ad solis occubitum in terra Chananei qui habitat in campestribus contra Galgalam quae est iuxta vallem tendentem et intrantem procul

For ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.

vos enim transibitis Iordanem ut possideatis terram quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis et habeatis ac possideatis illam

And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.

videte ergo ut impleatis caerimonias atque iudicia quae ego hodie ponam in conspectu vestro
