Deuteronomy

Chapter 10

Phonetic (Hebrew): bּa'e֨t hahi֜v 'ama֧r yehva֣h 'ela֗y pּesal-leka֞ shsheneֽy-luvcho֤t 'abaniym֙ kּari֣'shshoni֔ym va'ale֥h 'ela֖y haha֑rah ve'ashsi֥yta lּeka֖ 'ar֥on 'eֽtz׃

Edified Edition (EDE)At that time the LORD said to me, "Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones and come up to me on the mountain. Also make a wooden ark.

בָּעֵ֨ת הַהִ֜וא אָמַ֧ר יְהוָ֣ה אֵלַ֗י פְּסָל־לְךָ֞ שְׁנֵֽי־לֻוחֹ֤ת אֲבָנִים֙ כָּרִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים וַעֲלֵ֥ה אֵלַ֖י הָהָ֑רָה וְעָשִׂ֥יתָ לְּךָ֖ אֲר֥וֹן עֵֽץ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): ve'eketּob֙ 'al-halּucho֔t 'et-hadּebari֔ym 'ashshe֥r hay֛u 'al-halּucho֥t hari'shshoni֖ym 'ashshe֣r shshibּa֑retּa veshsametּa֖m bּa'arֽon׃

Edified Edition (EDE)I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. Then you are to put them in the ark."

וְאֶכְתֹּב֙ עַל־הַלֻּחֹ֔ת אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָי֛וּ עַל־הַלֻּחֹ֥ת הָרִאשֹׁנִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר שִׁבַּ֑רְתָּ וְשַׂמְתָּ֖ם בָּאָרֽוֹן׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): va'a֤'ashs 'aron֙ 'atze֣y shshitּi֔ym va'epeso֛l shsheney-lucho֥t 'abani֖ym kּari'shshoni֑ym va'a֣'al haha֔rah ushshene֥y halּucho֖t bּeyadiֽy׃

Edified Edition (EDE)So I made the ark out of acacia wood and chiselled out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I went up on the mountain with the two tablets in my hands.

וָאַ֤עַשׂ אֲרוֹן֙ עֲצֵ֣י שִׁטִּ֔ים וָאֶפְסֹ֛ל שְׁנֵי־לֻחֹ֥ת אֲבָנִ֖ים כָּרִאשֹׁנִ֑ים וָאַ֣עַל הָהָ֔רָה וּשְׁנֵ֥י הַלֻּחֹ֖ת בְּיָדִֽי׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): vayּiketּo֨b 'aֽl-halּucho֜t kּamּiketּa֣b hari'shsh֗on 'e֚t 'ashse֣ret hadּebari֔ym 'ashshe֣r dּibּer֩ yehva֨h 'aleyke֥m bּaha֛r mitּ֥oke ha'e֖shsh bּey֣om haqּaha֑l vayּitּene֥m yehva֖h 'elaֽy׃

Edified Edition (EDE)The LORD wrote on these tablets what he had written before, the Ten Commandments he had proclaimed to you on the mountain, out of the fire, on the day of the assembly. And the LORD gave them to me.

וַיִּכְתֹּ֨ב עַֽל־הַלֻּחֹ֜ת כַּמִּכְתָּ֣ב הָרִאשׁ֗וֹן אֵ֚ת עֲשֶׂ֣רֶת הַדְּבָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר דִּבֶּר֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֲלֵיכֶ֥ם בָּהָ֛ר מִתּ֥וֹךְ הָאֵ֖שׁ בְּי֣וֹם הַקָּהָ֑ל וַיִּתְּנֵ֥ם יְהוָ֖ה אֵלָֽי׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): va'e֗pen vaֽ'ered֙ min-haha֔r vaֽ'ashsim֙ 'et-halּucho֔t bּa'ar֖on 'ashshe֣r 'ashsi֑ytiy vayּi֣heyu shsha֔m kּa'ashshe֥r tziua֖niy yehvaֽh׃

Edified Edition (EDE)Then I came back down the mountain and put the tablets in the ark I had made, as the LORD commanded me, and they are there now.

וָאֵ֗פֶן וָֽאֵרֵד֙ מִן־הָהָ֔ר וָֽאָשִׂם֙ אֶת־הַלֻּחֹ֔ת בָּאָר֖וֹן אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֑יתִי וַיִּ֣הְיוּ שָׁ֔ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר צִוַּ֖נִי יְהוָֽה׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): ubene֣y yishsera'e֗l naֽse'֛u mibּe'ero֥t bּeney-ya'aqa֖n mosera֑h shsha֣m me֤t 'aharon֙ vayּiqּabe֣r shsha֔m vayekahe֛n 'ele'aza֥r bּen֖o tּachetּaֽyv׃

Edified Edition (EDE)(The Israelites travelled from the wells of Bene Jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest.

וּבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל נָֽסְע֛וּ מִבְּאֵרֹ֥ת בְּנֵי־יַעֲקָ֖ן מוֹסֵרָ֑ה שָׁ֣ם מֵ֤ת אַהֲרֹן֙ וַיִּקָּבֵ֣ר שָׁ֔ם וַיְכַהֵ֛ן אֶלְעָזָ֥ר בְּנ֖וֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): mishshּa֥m nase'֖u hagּudegּo֑dah umin-hagּudegּo֣dah yateba֔tah 'e֖retz na֥chaley maֽyim׃

Edified Edition (EDE)From there they travelled to Gudgodah and on to Jotbathah, a land with streams of water.

מִשָּׁ֥ם נָסְע֖וּ הַגֻּדְגֹּ֑דָה וּמִן־הַגֻּדְגֹּ֣דָה יָטְבָ֔תָה אֶ֖רֶץ נַ֥חֲלֵי מָֽיִם׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): bּa'e֣t hahi֗v hibedּi֤yl yehvah֙ 'et-shshe֣bet halּevi֔y lashse֖'t 'et-'ar֣on bּeriyt-yehva֑h la'amod֩ lipene֨y yehva֤h leshshaֽreto֙ ulebare֣ke bּishshem֔o 'a֖d hayּ֥om hazּeֽh׃

Edified Edition (EDE)At that time the LORD set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister and to pronounce blessings in his name, as they still do today.

בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֗וא הִבְדִּ֤יל יְהוָה֙ אֶת־שֵׁ֣בֶט הַלֵּוִ֔י לָשֵׂ֖את אֶת־אֲר֣וֹן בְּרִית־יְהוָ֑ה לַעֲמֹד֩ לִפְנֵ֨י יְהוָ֤ה לְשָֽׁרְתוֹ֙ וּלְבָרֵ֣ךְ בִּשְׁמ֔וֹ עַ֖ד הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): al-kּe֞n loֽ'-haya֧h lelevi֛y che֥leq venachala֖h 'im-'echa֑yv yehvah֙ h֣u nachalat֔o kּa'ashshe֥r dּibּe֛r yehva֥h 'elohe֖yka lֽo׃

Edified Edition (EDE)That is why the Levites have no share or inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the LORD is their inheritance, as the LORD your God told them.)

עַל־כֵּ֞ן לֹֽא־הָיָ֧ה לְלֵוִ֛י חֵ֥לֶק וְנַחֲלָ֖ה עִם־אֶחָ֑יו יְהוָה֙ ה֣וּא נַחֲלָת֔וֹ כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֶּ֛ר יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ לֽוֹ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): ve'anoki֞y 'ama֣detּiy baha֗r kּayּamiym֙ hari֣'shshoni֔ym 'arebּa'i֣ym y֔om ve'arebּa'i֖ym la֑yelah vayּishshema֨ yehva֜h 'ela֗y gּa֚m bּapּa֣'am hahi֔v lo'-'aba֥h yehva֖h hashshechiyteֽka׃

Edified Edition (EDE)Now I had stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights, as I did the first time, and the LORD listened to me at this time also. It was not his will to destroy you.

וְאָנֹכִ֞י עָמַ֣דְתִּי בָהָ֗ר כַּיָּמִים֙ הָרִ֣אשֹׁנִ֔ים אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָ֑יְלָה וַיִּשְׁמַ֨ע יְהוָ֜ה אֵלַ֗י גַּ֚ם בַּפַּ֣עַם הַהִ֔וא לֹא־אָבָ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה הַשְׁחִיתֶֽךָ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): vayּo֤'mer yehvah֙ 'ela֔y q֛um le֥ke lemasּa֖ lipene֣y ha'a֑m veyabo֨'u֙ veyiֽreshsh֣u 'et-ha'a֔retz 'ashsher-nishshebּa֥'etּiy la'abota֖m late֥t laheֽm׃p

Edified Edition (EDE)"Go," the LORD said to me, "and lead the people on their way, so that they may enter and possess the land I swore to their ancestors to give them."

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֵלַ֔י ק֛וּם לֵ֥ךְ לְמַסַּ֖ע לִפְנֵ֣י הָעָ֑ם וְיָבֹ֨אוּ֙ וְיִֽרְשׁ֣וּ אֶת־הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־נִשְׁבַּ֥עְתִּי לַאֲבֹתָ֖ם לָתֵ֥ת לָהֶֽם׃פ

Phonetic (Hebrew): ve'atּah֙ yishsera'e֔l ma֚h yehva֣h 'elohe֔yka shsho'e֖l me'imּa֑ke kּi֣y 'im-le֠yire'ah 'et-yehva֨h 'elohe֜yka lale֤ket bּekal-dּerakayv֙ ule'ahaba֣h 'ot֔o velaֽ'abod֙ 'et-yehva֣h 'elohe֔yka bּekal-lebabeka֖ ubekal-napeshsheֽka׃

Edified Edition (EDE)And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

וְעַתָּה֙ יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל מָ֚ה יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ שֹׁאֵ֖ל מֵעִמָּ֑ךְ כִּ֣י אִם־לְ֠יִרְאָה אֶת־יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ לָלֶ֤כֶת בְּכָל־דְּרָכָיו֙ וּלְאַהֲבָ֣ה אֹת֔וֹ וְלַֽעֲבֹד֙ אֶת־יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ֖ וּבְכָל־נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): lishshemo֞r 'et-mitzevo֤t yehvah֙ ve'et-chuqּota֔yv 'ashshe֛r 'anoki֥y metzaueka֖ hayּ֑om let֖ob laֽke׃

Edified Edition (EDE)and to observe the LORD's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?

לִשְׁמֹ֞ר אֶת־מִצְוֺ֤ת יְהוָה֙ וְאֶת־חֻקֹּתָ֔יו אֲשֶׁ֛ר אָנֹכִ֥י מְצַוְּךָ֖ הַיּ֑וֹם לְט֖וֹב לָֽךְ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): he֚n layhva֣h 'elohe֔yka hashshּama֖yim ushsheme֣y hashshּama֑yim ha'a֖retz vekal-'ashsher-bּaֽhּ׃

Edified Edition (EDE)To the LORD your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, the earth and everything in it.

הֵ֚ן לַיהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וּשְׁמֵ֣י הַשָּׁמָ֑יִם הָאָ֖רֶץ וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר־בָּֽהּ׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): ra֧q bּa'abote֛yka chashsha֥q yehva֖h le'ahaba֣h 'ota֑m vayּibecha֞r bּezare'a֣m 'achareyhe֗m bּake֛m mikּal-ha'amּi֖ym kּayּ֥om hazּeh׃

Edified Edition (EDE)Yet the LORD set his affection on your ancestors and loved them, and he chose you, their descendants, above all the nations, as it is today.

רַ֧ק בַּאֲבֹתֶ֛יךָ חָשַׁ֥ק יְהוָ֖ה לְאַהֲבָ֣ה אוֹתָ֑ם וַיִּבְחַ֞ר בְּזַרְעָ֣ם אַחֲרֵיהֶ֗ם בָּכֶ֛ם מִכָּל־הָעַמִּ֖ים כַּיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּה׃

Phonetic (Hebrew): umaletּe֕m 'e֖t 'arela֣t lebabeke֑m ve'a֨repּeke֔m lo֥ taqeshsh֖u 'ֽod׃

Edified Edition (EDE)Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and do not be stiff-necked any longer.

וּמַלְתֶּ֕ם אֵ֖ת עָרְלַ֣ת לְבַבְכֶ֑ם וְעָ֨רְפְּכֶ֔ם לֹ֥א תַקְשׁ֖וּ עֽוֹד׃

Edified Edition (EDE)For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.

כִּ֚י יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶ֔ם ה֚וּא אֱלֹהֵ֣י הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים וַאֲדֹנֵ֖י הָאֲדֹנִ֑ים הָאֵ֨ל הַגָּדֹ֤ל הַגִּבֹּר֙ וְהַנּוֹרָ֔א אֲשֶׁר֙ לֹא־יִשָּׂ֣א פָנִ֔ים וְלֹ֥א יִקַּ֖ח שֹֽׁחַד׃
