Deuteronomy 10
World English Bible
10 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 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 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 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 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 (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 From there they traveled to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of brooks of water. 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 Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brothers; Yahweh is his inheritance, according as Yahweh your God spoke to him.)
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 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 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 to keep Yahweh’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good? 14 Behold, to Yahweh your God belongs heaven, the heaven of heavens, and the earth, with all that is therein. 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 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked. 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 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing. 19 Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. 20 You shall fear Yahweh your God. You shall serve him. You shall cling to him, and you shall swear by his name. 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 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.

Le nuove tavole della legge
10 (A)«In quel tempo il Signore mi disse: “Taglia due tavole di pietra come le prime e sali da me sul monte; fatti anche un’arca di legno. 2 Io scriverò su quelle tavole le parole che erano sulle prime che hai spezzate, e tu le metterai nell’arca”. 3 Io feci allora un’arca di legno d’acacia, e tagliai due tavole di pietra come le prime; poi salii sul monte, tenendo le due tavole in mano. 4 Il Signore scrisse su quelle due tavole ciò che era stato scritto la prima volta, cioè i dieci comandamenti che il Signore aveva pronunciato per voi sul monte, parlando dal fuoco, il giorno dell’assemblea. E il Signore me le diede. 5 Allora mi voltai e scesi dal monte; misi le tavole nell’arca che avevo fatta, e sono lì, come il Signore mi aveva ordinato.
6 I figli d’Israele partirono da Beerot-Benè-Iaacan per Mosera. Là Aaronne morì e fu sepolto; ed Eleazar, suo figlio, divenne sacerdote al suo posto. 7 Di là partirono per Gudgoda, e da Gudgoda per Iotbata, paese di corsi d’acqua. 8 In quel tempo il Signore separò la tribù di Levi per portare l’arca del patto del Signore, per stare davanti al Signore, per servirlo e per dare la benedizione nel nome di lui, come ha fatto fino a questo giorno. 9 Perciò Levi non ha parte né eredità con i suoi fratelli; il Signore è la sua eredità, come gli ha detto il Signore, il tuo Dio.
10 Io rimasi sul monte, come la prima volta, quaranta giorni e quaranta notti; e il Signore mi esaudì anche questa volta: il Signore non volle distruggerti. 11 Il Signore mi disse: “Àlzati, mettiti in cammino alla testa del popolo, perché entrino nel paese che giurai ai loro padri di dare loro e ne prendano possesso”.
Esortazione a ubbidire a Dio
12 (B)«E ora, Israele, che cosa chiede da te il Signore, il tuo Dio, se non che tu tema il Signore, il tuo Dio, che tu cammini in tutte le sue vie, che tu lo ami e serva il Signore, il tuo Dio, con tutto il tuo cuore e con tutta l’anima[a] tua, 13 che tu osservi per il tuo bene i comandamenti del Signore e le sue leggi che oggi ti do? 14 Ecco, al Signore tuo Dio appartengono i cieli, i cieli dei cieli, la terra e tutto ciò che essa contiene; 15 ma soltanto ai tuoi padri il Signore si affezionò e li amò; poi, dopo di loro, fra tutti i popoli scelse la loro discendenza, cioè voi, come oggi si vede. 16 Circoncidete dunque il vostro cuore e non indurite più il vostro collo; 17 poiché il Signore, il vostro Dio, è il Dio degli dèi, il Signore dei signori, il Dio grande, forte e tremendo, che non ha riguardi personali e non accetta regali, 18 che fa giustizia all’orfano e alla vedova, che ama lo straniero e gli dà pane e vestito. 19 Amate dunque lo straniero, poiché anche voi foste stranieri nel paese d’Egitto. 20 Temi il Signore, il tuo Dio, servilo, tieniti stretto a lui e giura nel suo nome. 21 Egli è l’oggetto delle tue lodi, è il tuo Dio, che ha fatto per te queste cose grandi e tremende che gli occhi tuoi hanno viste. 22 I tuoi padri scesero in Egitto; erano settanta persone e ora il Signore, il tuo Dio, ha fatto di te una moltitudine simile alle stelle del cielo.

Deuteronomy 10
King James Version
10 At that time the Lord said unto me, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make thee an ark of wood.
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the Lord spake unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the Lord gave them unto me.
5 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the Lord commanded me.
6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
8 At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, according as the Lord thy God promised him.
10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the Lord hearkened unto me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy thee.
11 And the Lord said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
12 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,
13 To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
15 Only the Lord had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:
18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
20 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.
21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the Lord thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
