The Second Stone Tablets and the Ark of the Covenant
At that time
ADONAI (יהוה) said to me:
Hew you shnei luchot avanim (two tables of stone) like to the first, and come up to me into the mount, and make you an aron of wood
10:2 And I will write on the tables the devarim that were in the first tables which you brakest, and you shall put them in the aron.
10:3 And I made an aron [of] shittim wood, and hewed shnei luchot avanim like to the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
10:4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten mitzvot, which ADONAI (יהוה) spoke to you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and ADONAI (יהוה) gave them to me.
10:5 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the aron which I had made; and there they be, as ADONAI (יהוה) commanded me.
The Death of Aharon
10:6 And the benai Yisra'el took their journey from Be'erot (Wells) of the benai Yaakan to Mosera: there Aharon died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the kohen's office in his place.
10:7 From thence they journeyed to Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Yotvatah, a eretz rivers of mayim.
10:8 At that time ADONAI (יהוה) separated the shevet Levi, to bear the Aron ha Brit of ADONAI (יהוה), to stand before ADONAI (יהוה) to minister to him, and to bless in his name, to this day.
10:9 Wherefore Levi has no part nor inheritance with his brethren; ADONAI (יהוה) [is] his inheritance, according as ADONAI Eloheicha promised him.
10:10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and ADONAI (יהוה) listened to me at that time also, [and] ADONAI (יהוה) would not destroy you.
10:11 AndADONAI (יהוה) said to me:
Arise, take [thy] journey before the people, that they may go in and yaresh (possess) ha eretz, which I sware to their avot to give to them.
1st Portion | 2nd Portion | 3rd Portion | 4th Portion | 5th Portion | 6th Portion | 7th Portion | Maftir | Haftarah | Tehillim 75 | Brit HadashahAnd Now, Yisra'el:
what does ADONAI Eloheicha require of you, but
to fear (yara)ADONAI Eloheicha,
to walk (halak) in all His ways,
and
to love (ahava) Him, and
to serve (eved) ADONAI (יהוה)
Eloheicha b'kol levavcha and b'kol Nefeshcha,
To shomer (keep) mitzvot ADONAI (יהוה), and His chukkim,
which I tzavah you this day for your good?
10:14 Hinnei, the shamayim and the shamayim of shamayim [is] ADONAI's Eloheicha, the eretz [also], b'kol that therein [is].
10:15 Only ADONAI (יהוה) had a delight in your avot to love them, and he chose their seed after them, [even] you above all people, as [it is] this day.
10:16
וּמַלְתֶּם אֵת עָרְלַת לְבַבְכֶם וְעָרְפְּכֶם לֹאתַקְשוּ עוֹד׃
Umaltem et arelat levavchem ve'arepechem lo takshu od
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
10:17 For ADONAI (יהוה) Eloheinu [is] Elohim (אלהים) of gods, and Adonay ha adonim, a great Elohim (אלהים), a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor takes reward:
10:18 He does execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
10:19 Love you therefore the stranger: for you were strangers in ha eretz Mitzrayim.
10:20 You shall fear ADONAI (יהוה) Eloheicha; him shall you serve, and to him shall you cleave, and swear by his name.
10:21 He [is] your praise, and he [is] Eloheicha, that has done for you these great and terrible things, which your eyes have seen.
10:22 Thy avot went down into Mitzrayim with Shivim (70) nefesh(souls); and now ADONAI (יהוה) Eloheicha has made you as the stars of shamayim for multitude.
