¹Preto budeš milovať Hospodina, svojho Boha, a budeš ostríhať jeho nariadenie a jeho ustanovenia, jeho súdy a jeho prikázania po všetky dni.

¹`And thou hast loved Jehovah thy God, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, all the days;

²A budete znať dnes - lebo veď nehovorím s vašimi synmi, ktorí nepoznali a ktorí nevideli - výchovnú kázeň Hospodina, svojho Boha, jeho veľkosť, jeho silnú ruku a jeho vystreté rameno,

²and ye have known to-day — for it is not your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, His greatness, His strong hand, and His stretched-out arm,

³jeho znamenia a jeho skutky, ktoré činil prostred Egypta faraonovi, egyptskému kráľovi, a celej jeho zemi,

³and His signs, and His doings, which He hath done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to all his land;

⁴i to, čo učinil egyptskému vojsku, jeho koňom a jeho vozom, ako ich zalial vodami Rudého mora, keď sa hnali za vami, a Hospodin ich zahubil, a je tak až do dnešného dňa;

⁴and that which He hath done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He hath caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and Jehovah destroyeth them, unto this day;

⁵a budete znať i to, čo vám činil na púšti, dokiaľ ste neprišli na toto miesto,

⁵and that which He hath done to you in the wilderness, till your coming in unto this place;

⁶a čo učinil Dátanovi a Abirámovi, synom Eliába, syna Rúbenovho, jako otvorila zem jeho ústa a pohltila ich aj ich čeľade aj ich stány i so všetkými živými bytosťami, ktoré išly s nimi, vprostred celého Izraela,

⁶and that which He hath done to Dathan, and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth hath opened her mouth and swalloweth them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that liveth, which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel:

⁷Lebo vaše vlastné oči to boly, ktoré to videly všetky tie veľké skutky Hospodinove, ktoré činil.

⁷`— But [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of Jehovah, which He hath done;

⁸A tedy budete ostríhať každé prikázanie, ktoré vám ja prikazujem dnes, aby ste boli silní a aby ste vošli a zaujali do dedičstva zem, do ktorej idete, aby ste ju zaujali do dedičstva,

⁸and ye have kept all the command which I am commanding thee to-day, so that ye are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land whither ye are passing over to possess it,

⁹a aby ste dlho žili na zemi, ktorú prisahal Hospodin vašim otcom, že im ju dá aj ich semenu, zem, ktorá tečie mliekom a medom.

⁹and so that ye prolong days on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed — a land flowing with milk and honey.

¹⁰Lebo zem, do ktorej ty ideš, aby si ju zaujal do dedičstva, nie je ako Egyptská zem, z ktorej ste vyšli, kde si sial svoje semeno a polieval si svojou nohou jako zeleninovú zahradu.

¹⁰`For the land whither thou art going in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt whence ye have come out, where thou sowest thy seed, and hast watered with thy foot, as a garden of the green herb;

¹¹Ale zem, do ktorej idete, aby ste ju zaujali do dedičstva, je zem, v ktorej sú vrchy a doliny, ktorá pije vodu, keď prší dážď z neba,

¹¹but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, [is] a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;

¹²je to zem, o ktorú sa stará Hospodin, tvoj Bôh; oči Hospodina, tvojho Boha, sú ustavične obrátené na ňu od začiatku roka až do konca roka.

¹²a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually [are] the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.

¹³A stane sa, ak budete naozaj poslúchať moje prikázania, ktoré vám ja prikazujem dnes, milujúc Hospodina, svojho Boha, a slúžiac mu celým svojím srdcom a celou svojou dušou,

¹³`And it hath been — if thou hearken diligently unto My commands which I am commanding you to-day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve Him with all your heart, and with all your soul —

¹⁴že dám vašej zemi dážď na jeho čas, ranný i pozdný, a budeš spratávať svoje obilie i svoju vínnu šťavu i svoj olej.

¹⁴that I have given the rain of your land in its season — sprinkling and gathered — and thou hast gathered thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil,

¹⁵A dám bylinu na tvojom poli pre tvoje hovädá, a budeš jesť a nasýtiš sa.

¹⁵and I have given herbs in thy field for thy cattle, and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied.

¹⁶Vystríhajte sa, aby sa nedalo zviesť vaše srdce, a odchýlili by ste sa odo mňa a slúžili by ste iným bohom a klaňali by ste sa im!

¹⁶`Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be enticed, and ye have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,

¹⁷Lebo by sa zapálil na vás hnev Hospodinov, a zavrel by nebesia, a nebolo by dažďa, a zem by nevydala svojej úrody, a zahynuli by ste rýchle s povrchu tej krásnej zeme dobrej, ktorú vám dáva Hospodin.

¹⁷and the anger of Jehovah hath burned against you, and He hath restrained the heavens, and there is no rain, and the ground doth not give her increase, and ye have perished hastily from off the good land which Jehovah is giving to you.

¹⁸Ale si položíte tieto moje slová na svoje srdce, a na svoju dušu a priviažete si ich na znamenie na svoju ruku, a budú uzlíkom na upomienku medzi vašimi očami.

¹⁸`And ye have placed these my words on your heart, and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;

¹⁹A budete im vyučovať svojich synov hovoriac o nich, keď budeš sedieť vo svojom dome, i keď pojdeš cestou i keď budeš líhať i keď budeš vstávať;

¹⁹and ye have taught them to your sons, by speaking of them in thy sitting in thy house, and in thy going in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,

²⁰a napíšeš ich na podvoje svojho domu i na svoje brány,

²⁰and hast written them on the side-posts of thy house, and on thy gates,

²¹aby bolo mnoho vašich dní i dní vašich synov na zemi, ktorú prisahal Hospodin vašim otcom, že im ju dá, jako dni nebies nad zemou.

²¹so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens on the earth.

²²Lebo ak budete naozaj ostríhať každé toto prikázanie, ktoré vám ja prikazujem, aby ste ho činili milujúc Hospodina, svojho Boha, chodiac po všetkých jeho cestách a láskou sa ho pridŕžajúc,

²²`For, if ye diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you — to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him,

²³vtedy vyženie Hospodin všetky tie národy zpred vašej tvári, a zaujmete do dedičstva národy, ktoré sú väčšie a mocnejšie ako vy.

²³then hath Jehovah dispossessed all these nations from before you, and ye have possessed nations, greater and mightier than you;

²⁴Každé miesto, na ktoré šľapí vaša noha, bude vaše, hen od púšte a od Libanona, od rieky, rieky Eufrates, až po zadné more bude vaše územie.

²⁴every place on which the sole of your foot treadeth is yours; from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Phrat, even unto the farther sea is your border;

²⁵Nikto neobstojí pred vami; váš strach a vašu bázeň dá Hospodin, váš Bôh, na tvár celej zeme, po ktorej budete šliapať, tak ako vám hovoril.

²⁵no man doth station himself in your presence; your dread and your fear doth Jehovah your God put on the face of all the land on which ye tread, as He hath spoken to you.

²⁶Vidzže, ja vám dnes predkladám požehnanie a zlorečenie,

²⁶`See, I am setting before you to-day a blessing and a reviling:

²⁷požehnanie, keď budete počúvať na prikázania Hospodina, svojho Boha, ktoré vám ja prikazujem dnes,

²⁷the blessing, when ye hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, which I am commanding you to-day;

²⁸a zlorečenie, keby ste nepočúvali na prikázania Hospodina, svojho Boha, a keby ste vybočili z cesty, ktorú vám ja prikazujem dnes, idúc za inými bohy, ktorých neznáte.

²⁸and the reviling, if ye do not hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, and have turned aside out of the way which I am commanding you to-day, to go after other gods which ye have not known.

²⁹A stane sa, keď ťa vovedie Hospodin, tvoj Bôh, do zeme, do ktorej ideš, aby si ju zaujal do dedičstva, že dáš požehnanie na vrchu Gerizím a zlorečenie na vrchu Ébal.

²⁹`And it hath been, when Jehovah thy God doth bring thee in unto the land whither thou art going in to possess it, that thou hast given the blessing on mount Gerizim, and the reviling on mount Ebal;

³⁰Hľa, či nie sú oba vrchy za Jordánom, za cestou na západe slnka, v zemi Kananeja, ktorý býva na rovine naproti Gilgalu, pri dúbrave Móre?

³⁰are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite, who is dwelling in the plain over-against Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?

³¹Lebo vy prejdete cez Jordán, aby ste vošli zaujať do dedičstva zem, ktorú vám dá Hospodin, váš Bôh, a zaujmete ju do dedičstva a budete bývať v nej.

³¹for ye are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving to you; and ye have possessed it, and dwelt in it,

³²A tedy budete hľadieť, aby ste činili všetky ustanovenia a súdy, ktoré vám ja predkladám dnes.

³²and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you to day.
