Deuteronomy 5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The Ten Commandments
5 Moses summoned all Israel and said to them, “Israel, listen to the statutes and ordinances I am proclaiming as you hear them today. Learn and follow them carefully. 2 The Lord our God made a covenant(A) with us at Horeb. 3 He did not make this covenant with our fathers,(B) but with all of us who are alive here today. 4 The Lord spoke to you face to face from the fire on the mountain. 5 At that time I was standing between the Lord and you to report the word[a] of the Lord to you, because you were afraid of the fire and did not go up the mountain. And He said:
6 I am the Lord your God,(C) who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the place of slavery.(D)
7 Do not have other gods besides Me.
8 Do not make an idol for yourself in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth. 9 You must not bow down to them or worship them, because I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the fathers’ sin to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,(E) 10 but showing faithful love to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commands.
11 Do not misuse the name(F) of the Lord your God, because the Lord will not leave anyone unpunished who misuses His name.
12 Be careful to remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy as the Lord your God has commanded you. 13 You are to labor six days and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. You must not do any work—you, your son or daughter, your male or female slave, your ox or donkey, any of your livestock, or the foreigner who lives within your gates, so that your male and female slaves may rest as you do. 15 Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out of there with a strong hand and an outstretched arm. That is why the Lord your God has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 Honor your father and your mother,(G) as the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and so that you may prosper in the land the Lord your God is giving you.(H)
17 Do not murder.(I)
18 Do not commit adultery.(J)
19 Do not steal.
20 Do not give dishonest testimony against your neighbor.(K)
21 Do not covet your neighbor’s wife or desire your neighbor’s house, his field, his male or female slave, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.(L)
The People’s Response
22 “The Lord spoke these commands in a loud voice to your entire assembly from the fire, cloud, and thick darkness on the mountain; He added nothing more. He wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me. 23 All of you approached me with your tribal leaders and elders when you heard the voice from the darkness and while the mountain was blazing with fire. 24 You said, ‘Look, the Lord our God has shown us His glory and greatness, and we have heard His voice from the fire. Today we have seen that God speaks with a person, yet he still lives. 25 But now, why should we die? This great fire will consume us and we will die if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any longer. 26 For who out of all mankind has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the fire, as we have, and lived? 27 Go near and listen to everything the Lord our God says. Then you can tell us everything the Lord our God tells you; we will listen and obey.’(M)
28 “The Lord heard your[b] words when you spoke to me. He said to me, ‘I have heard the words that these people have spoken to you. Everything they have said is right. 29 If only they had such a heart to fear Me and keep all My commands always, so that they and their children will prosper forever. 30 Go and tell them: Return to your tents. 31 But you stand here with Me, and I will tell you every command—the statutes and ordinances—you are to teach them, so that they may follow them in the land I am giving them to possess.’
32 “Be careful to do as the Lord your God has commanded you; you are not to turn aside to the right or the left. 33 Follow the whole instruction the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live, prosper, and have a long life in the land you will possess.

Deset zapovijedi
(Izl 20,1-17)
5 Mojsije je sazvao cijeli Izrael i rekao: Izraelci, poslušajte uredbe i zakone koje vam danas objavljujem. Naučite ih, držite ih i vršite ih. 2 Naš je BOG sklopio s nama savez na planini Horeb. 3 On taj savez nije sklopio s našim precima, nego s nama, sa svima nama koji smo danas ovdje živi. 4 BOG je govorio s vama licem u lice iz vatre na planini. 5 Stajao sam tada između BOGA i vas da bi vam objavio BOŽJU riječ jer ste se bojali vatre i niste se popeli na planinu. A on je rekao:
6 »Ja sam tvoj BOG, koji te izveo iz Egipta, zemlje ropstva.
7 Nemoj imati drugih bogova osim mene. 8 Ne pravi sebi idole u obliku bilo čega što je gore na nebu, ili dolje na zemlji, ili ispod, u vodi. 9 Nemoj ih štovati niti im služiti jer sam ja, tvoj BOG, ljubomoran Bog. Kažnjavam one koji me mrze i njihove potomke do trećeg i četvrtog koljena, 10 a pokazujem vjernost i ljubav do tisućitog koljena onima koji me vole i drže moje zapovijedi.
11 Ne koristi ime svog BOGA za lažna obećanja jer BOG neće ostaviti nekažnjenog onoga tko tako zlorabi njegovo ime.
12 Održavaj šabat kao poseban dan, kao što ti je zapovjedio tvoj BOG. 13 Šest dana radi i obavljaj sve svoje poslove, 14 ali sedmi dan je dan odmora u čast tvoga BOGA. Toga dana ne obavljaj nikakav posao, ni ti ni tvoji sinovi ni kćeri, ni tvoji robovi ni ropkinje, ni tvoji volovi ni magarci, ni sva tvoja stoka, ni stranci u tvojim naseljima. Tako će se tvoji robovi i ropkinje moći odmoriti kao i ti. 15 Sjetite se da ste bili robovi u Egiptu i da vas je vaš BOG odande izveo svojom moći i silom. Zato vam je BOG zapovjedio da održavate šabat.
16 Poštuj svog oca i majku, kao što ti je zapovjedio tvoj BOG, da dugo poživiš i da ti bude dobro u zemlji koju ti daje tvoj BOG.
17 Ne počini ubojstvo.
18 Ne počini preljub.
19 Ne ukradi.
20 Ne laži kada svjedočiš o bližnjemu.
21 Ne žudi za ženom svoga bližnjega. Ne žudi za kućom svog bližnjega, ni za njegovim poljem, ni za njegovim robom ili ropkinjom, ni za njegovim volom ili magarcem, ni za bilo čim drugim što pripada tvom bližnjemu.«
22 Zapovijedi su to koje je BOG glasno objavio čitavom vašem skupu ondje na planini. Govorio je iz vatre, oblaka i guste tame i više ništa nije dodao. Zatim ih je zapisao na dvije kamene ploče i predao meni.
Narod u strahu
(Izl 20,18-21)
23 Kad ste bili čuli glas iz tame, dok je planina plamtjela u vatri, svi glavari i starješine vaših plemena došli su k meni. 24 Rekli su: »Naš BOG pokazao nam je svoju slavu i veličanstvo. Čuli smo mu glas iz vatre. Danas smo vidjeli da čovjek može ostati živ iako Bog govori s njim. 25 No zašto bismo se izlagali pogibelji? Ako nastavimo slušati glas našega BOGA, proždrijet će nas ta velika vatra i poginut ćemo. 26 Ima li itko da je čuo glas živog Boga kako govori iz vatre, kao što smo mi čuli, i ostao živ? 27 Zato, priđi i slušaj sve što ti kaže naš BOG. Zatim nam prenesi sve što ti reći naš BOG, a mi ćemo poslušati i izvršavati.«
28 BOG je čuo kad ste sa mnom razgovarali pa mi je rekao: »Čuo sam što ti je ovaj narod rekao. Ispravno je sve što su rekli. 29 Kad bi barem uvijek tako razmišljali, kad bi me uvijek poštovali i držali moje zapovijedi, tada bi njima i njihovoj djeci uvijek bilo dobro. 30 Idi i reci im da se vrate u svoje šatore, 31 a ti ostani sa mnom ovdje. Dat ću ti sve zapovijedi, uredbe i zakone kojima ćeš ih poučiti da ih izvršavaju u zemlji koju im dajem u posjed.«
32 Stoga, pomno činite ono što vam je vaš BOG zapovjedio. Nipošto nemojte odstupati od toga. 33 Činite točno ono što[a] vam je zapovjedio vaš BOG. Tako ćete ostati na životu, bit će vam dobro i dugo ćete živjeti u zemlji koju zaposjednete.

New King James Version
The Ten Commandments Reviewed(A)
5 And Moses called all Israel, and said to them: “Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your hearing today, that you may learn them and be careful to observe them. 2 (B)The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. 3 The Lord (C)did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, those who are here today, all of us who are alive. 4 (D)The Lord talked with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire. 5 (E)I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to declare to you the word of the Lord; for (F)you were afraid because of the fire, and you did not go up the mountain. He said:
6 (G)‘I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of [a]bondage.
7 (H)‘You shall have no other gods [b]before Me.
8 (I)‘You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 9 you shall not (J)bow[c] down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, [d]visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 10 (K)but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and [e]keep My commandments.
11 (L)‘You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him [f]guiltless who takes His name in vain.
12 (M)‘Observe the Sabbath day, to [g]keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. 13 (N)Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is the (O)Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 15 (P)And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there (Q)by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 (R)‘Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you, (S)that your days may be long, and that it may be well with (T)you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
17 (U)‘You shall not murder.
18 (V)‘You shall not commit adultery.
19 (W)‘You shall not steal.
20 (X)‘You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
21 (Y)‘You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife; and you shall not desire your neighbor’s house, his field, his male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.’
22 “These words the Lord spoke to all your assembly, in the mountain from the midst of the fire, the cloud, and the thick darkness, with a loud voice; and He added no more. And (Z)He wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
The People Afraid of God’s Presence(AA)
23 (AB)“So it was, when you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes and your elders. 24 And you said: ‘Surely the Lord our God has shown us His glory and His greatness, and (AC)we have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man; yet he (AD)still lives. 25 Now therefore, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us; (AE)if we hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore, then we shall die. 26 (AF)For who is there of all flesh who has heard the voice of the living God speaking from the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived? 27 You go near and hear all that the Lord our God may say, and (AG)tell us all that the Lord our God says to you, and we will hear and do it.’
28 “Then the Lord heard the voice of your words when you spoke to me, and the Lord said to me: ‘I have heard the voice of the words of this people which they have spoken to you. (AH)They are right in all that they have spoken. 29 (AI)Oh, that they had such a heart in them that they would fear Me and (AJ)always keep all My commandments, (AK)that it might be well with them and with their children forever! 30 Go and say to them, “Return to your tents.” 31 But as for you, stand here by Me, (AL)and I will speak to you all the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments which you shall teach them, that they may observe them in the land which I am giving them to possess.’
32 “Therefore you shall [h]be careful to do as the Lord your God has commanded you; (AM)you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 33 You shall walk in (AN)all the ways which the Lord your God has commanded you, that you may live (AO)and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.
