Hebrew to Tamil - Exodus - Chapter 20
← Homeof 40
2.
אָנֹכִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, אֲשֶׁר הוֹצֵאתִיךָ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים: לֹא-יִהְיֶה לְךָ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים, עַל-פָּנָי.
Anokhi YHWH Elohekha, asher hotzetikha me'eretz mitzrayim mibe'et avadim: lo-yihyeh lekha Elohim akherim, al-panay.
I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
3.
לֹא-תַעֲשֶׂה לְךָ פֶסֶל, וְכָל-תְּמוּנָה, אֲשֶׁר בַּשָּׁמַיִם מִמַּעַל, וַאֲשֶׁר בָּאָרֶץ מִתָּחַת--וַאֲשֶׁר בַּמַּיִם, מִתַּחַת לָאָרֶץ.
lo-ta'aseh lekha fesel, vekhol-temunah, asher bashamayim mimma'al, va'asher ba'aretz mittakhat--va'asher bammayim, mittakhat la'aretz.
Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
4.
לֹא-תִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה לָהֶם, וְלֹא תָעָבְדֵם: כִּי אָנֹכִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, אֵל קַנָּא--פֹּקֵד עֲוֺן אָבֹת עַל-בָּנִים עַל-שִׁלֵּשִׁים וְעַל-רִבֵּעִים, לְשֹׂנְאָי.
lo-tishtakhaveh lahem, ve'lo ta'avdem: ki anokhi YHWH Elohekha, el kanna--poked avon avot al-banim al-shilleshim ve'al-ribbe'im, leson'ay.
thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me;
5.
וְעֹשֶׂה חֶסֶד, לַאֲלָפִים--לְאֹהֲבַי, וּלְשֹׁמְרֵי מִצְוֺתָי.
ve'oseh kheset, la'alafim--le'ohavay, uleshomrei mitzvotay.
and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments.
6.
לֹא תִשָּׂא אֶת-שֵׁם-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, לַשָּׁוְא: כִּי לֹא יְנַקֶּה יְהוָה, אֵת אֲשֶׁר-יִשָּׂא אֶת-שְׁמוֹ לַשָּׁוְא.
Lo tissa et-shem-YHWH Elohekha, lashshav: ki lo yenakkeh YHWH, et asher-yissa et-shemo lashshav.
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.
7.
זָכוֹר אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת, לְקַדְּשׁוֹ.
zakhor et-yom haShabbat, lekaddesho.
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
8.
שֵׁשֶׁת יָמִים תַּעֲבֹד, וְעָשִׂיתָ כָּל-מְלַאכְתֶּךָ.
sheshet yamim ta'avod, ve'asita kol-melakhtekha.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work;
9.
וְיוֹם, הַשְּׁבִיעִי--שַׁבָּת, לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ: לֹא-תַעֲשֶׂה כָל-מְלָאכָה אַתָּה וּבִנְךָ וּבִתֶּךָ, עַבְדְּךָ וַאֲמָתְךָ וּבְהֶמְתֶּךָ, וְגֵרְךָ, אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ.
veyom, hashvii--shabbat, laYHWH Elohekha: lo-ta'aseh khol-melakhah attah uvinkha uvittekha, avdekha va'amatkha uvhemetkha, vegerkha, asher bish'arekha.
but the seventh day is a sabbath unto the LORD thy God, in it thou shalt not do any manner of work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates;
10.
כִּי שֵׁשֶׁת-יָמִים עָשָׂה יְהוָה אֶת-הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת-הָאָרֶץ, אֶת-הַיָּם וְאֶת-כָּל-אֲשֶׁר-בָּם, וַיָּנַח, בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי; עַל-כֵּן, בֵּרַךְ יְהוָה אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת--וַיְקַדְּשֵׁהוּ.
Ki sheshet-yamim asah YHWH et-hashamayim ve'et-ha'aretz, et-hayam ve'et-kol-asher-bam, vayanach, bayom hashvii; al-ken, berakh YHWH et-yom hashabbat--vaykedeshehu.
for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested on the seventh day; wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
11.
כַּבֵּד אֶת-אָבִיךָ, וְאֶת-אִמֶּךָ--לְמַעַן, יַאֲרִכוּן יָמֶיךָ, עַל הָאֲדָמָה, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָךְ.
kabed et avikha, ve'et imekha--lema'an, ya'arikun yameykha, al ha'aretz, asher YHWH Elohekha noten lakh.
Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
12.
לֹא תִּרְצָח, לֹא תִּנְאָף; לֹא תִּגְנֹב, לֹא-תַעֲנֶה בְרֵעֲךָ עֵד שָׁקֶר.
lo tirtzach, lo tin'af; lo tignov, lo-ta'aneh vere'akha ed shaker.
Thou shalt not murder. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
13.
לֹא תַחְמֹד, בֵּית רֵעֶךָ; לֹא-תַחְמֹד אֵשֶׁת רֵעֶךָ, וְעַבְדּוֹ וַאֲמָתוֹ וְשׁוֹרוֹ וַחֲמֹרוֹ, וְכֹל, אֲשֶׁר לְרֵעֶךָ.
lo takhmod, beit re'ekha; lo-takhmod eshet re'ekha, ve'avdo va'amato veshoro vakhamoro, vekhol, asher lere'ekha.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house; thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
14.
וְכָל-הָעָם רֹאִים אֶת-הַקּוֹלֹת וְאֶת-הַלַּפִּידִם, וְאֵת קוֹל הַשֹּׁפָר, וְאֶת-הָהָר, עָשֵׁן; וַיַּרְא הָעָם וַיָּנֻעוּ, וַיַּעַמְדוּ מֵרָחֹק.
vekhal-ha'am ro'im et-hakkolot ve'et-hallapidim, ve'et kol hashofar, ve'et-ha'har, ashen; vayyar ha'am vayyanu'u, vayya'amdu merakhok.
And all the people perceived the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the voice of the horn, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled, and stood afar off.
15.
וַיֹּאמְרוּ, אֶל-מֹשֶׁה, דַּבֵּר-אַתָּה עִמָּנוּ, וְנִשְׁמָעָה; וְאַל-יְדַבֵּר עִמָּנוּ אֱלֹהִים, פֶּן-נָמוּת.
vayomeru, el-Moshe, dabber-attah immanu, venishma'ah; ve'al-yedabber immanu Elohim, pen-namut.
And they said unto Moses: 'Speak thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die.'
16.
וַיֹּאמֶר מֹשֶׁה אֶל-הָעָם, אַל-תִּירָאוּ, כִּי לְבַעֲבוּר נַסּוֹת אֶתְכֶם, בָּא הָאֱלֹהִים; וּבַעֲבוּר, תִּהְיֶה יִרְאָתוֹ עַל-פְּנֵיכֶם--לְבִלְתִּי תֶחֱטָאוּ.
vayomer Moshe el-ha'am, al-tira'u, ki leva'avur nassot etkhem, ba ha'Elohim; uva'avur, tihyeh yir'ato al-peneikhem--levilti tekheta'u.
And Moses said unto the people: 'Fear not; for God is come to prove you, and that His fear may be before you, that ye sin not.'
17.
וַיַּעֲמֹד הָעָם, מֵרָחֹק; וּמֹשֶׁה נִגַּשׁ אֶל-הָעֲרָפֶל, אֲשֶׁר-שָׁם הָאֱלֹהִים.
vayya'amod ha'am, merakhok; umosheh nigash el-ha'arafel, asher-sham ha'Elohim.
And the people stood afar off; but Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
18.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-מֹשֶׁה, כֹּה תֹאמַר אֶל-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל: אַתֶּם רְאִיתֶם--כִּי מִן-הַשָּׁמַיִם, דִּבַּרְתִּי עִמָּכֶם.
Vayomer YHWH el-Moshe, koh tomar el-bnei Yisrael: attem re'item--ki min-hashamayim, dibbarti immakhem.
And the LORD said unto Moses: Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel: Ye yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
19.
לֹא תַעֲשׂוּן, אִתִּי: אֱלֹהֵי כֶסֶף וֵאלֹהֵי זָהָב, לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ לָכֶם.
Lo ta'asun, itti: elohei khesef ve'elohei zahav, lo ta'asu lakhem.
Ye shall not make with Me--gods of silver, or gods of gold, ye shall not make unto you.
20.
מִזְבַּח אֲדָמָה, תַּעֲשֶׂה-לִּי, וְזָבַחְתָּ עָלָיו אֶת-עֹלֹתֶיךָ וְאֶת-שְׁלָמֶיךָ, אֶת-צֹאנְךָ וְאֶת-בְּקָרֶךָ; בְּכָל-הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר אַזְכִּיר אֶת-שְׁמִי, אָבוֹא אֵלֶיךָ וּבֵרַכְתִּיךָ.
mizbach adamah, ta'aseh-li, vezevachta alav et-olotekha ve'et-shelamekha, et-tzonkha ve'et-bekarekha; bekhol-hamakom asher azkir et-shemi, avo eleykha uverakhtikha.
An altar of earth thou shalt make unto Me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt-offerings, and thy peace-offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen; in every place where I cause My name to be mentioned I will come unto thee and bless thee.
21.
וְאִם-מִזְבַּח אֲבָנִים תַּעֲשֶׂה-לִּי, לֹא-תִבְנֶה אֶתְהֶן גָּזִית: כִּי חַרְבְּךָ הֵנַפְתָּ עָלֶיהָ, וַתְּחַלְלֶהָ.
ve'im-mizbach avanim ta'aseh-li, lo-tivneh ethen gazit: ki kharbekha henafta 'aleha, vatechalaleha.
And if thou make Me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones; for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast profaned it.
22.
וְלֹא-תַעֲלֶה בְמַעֲלֹת, עַל-מִזְבְּחִי: אֲשֶׁר לֹא-תִגָּלֶה עֶרְוָתְךָ, עָלָיו.
velo-ta'aleh vema'alot, 'al-mizbechi: asher lo-tiggaleh ervatkha, 'alav.
Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto Mine altar, that thy nakedness be not uncovered thereon.
