THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, CORRECTLY TRANSLATED IN LATIN AND ENGLISH |
The Ten Commandments, As Recorded The Bible, Exodus 20:1-17
Latin Vulgate And English Revised Standard Version (RSV)
1 locutus quoque est Dominus cunctos sermones hos
And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 ego sum Dominus Deus tuus qui eduxi te de terra Aegypti de domo
servitutis
"I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt,
out of the house of bondage.
3 non habebis deos alienos coram me
"You shall have no other gods before me.
4 non facies tibi sculptile neque omnem similitudinem quae est in caelo
desuper et quae in terra deorsum nec eorum quae sunt in aquis sub
terra
"You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or 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;
5 non adorabis ea neque coles ego sum Dominus Deus tuus fortis zelotes
visitans iniquitatem patrum in filiis in tertiam et quartam
generationem eorum qui oderunt me
you shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the LORD your God
am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me,
6 et faciens misericordiam in milia his qui diligunt me et custodiunt
praecepta mea
but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep
my commandments.
7 non adsumes nomen Domini Dei tui in vanum nec enim habebit insontem
Dominus eum qui adsumpserit nomen Domini Dei sui frustra
"You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain; for the
LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
8 memento ut diem sabbati sanctifices
"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 sex diebus operaberis et facies omnia opera tua
Six days you shall labor, and do all your work;
10 septimo autem die sabbati Domini Dei tui non facies omne opus tu et
filius tuus et filia tua servus tuus et ancilla tua iumentum tuum et
advena qui est intra portas tuas
but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God; in it you
shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your
manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner
who is within your gates;
11 sex enim diebus fecit Dominus caelum et terram et mare et omnia quae
in eis sunt et requievit in die septimo idcirco benedixit Dominus
diei sabbati et sanctificavit eum
for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all
that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD
blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it
12 honora patrem tuum et matrem tuam ut sis longevus super terram quam
Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi
"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the
landwhich the LORD your God gives you.
13 non occides
"You shall not kill.
14 non moechaberis
"You shall not commit adultery.
15 non furtum facies
"You shall not steal.
16 non loqueris contra proximum tuum falsum testimonium
"You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 non concupisces domum proximi tui nec desiderabis uxorem eius non
servum non ancillam non bovem non asinum nec omnia quae illius sunt
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your
neighbor's wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or
his *****, or anything that is your neighbor's."

And all of this works out perfectly well after everyone on this planet has
been indoctrinated to your precept of god. And by what measures are you going
to use to convert everyone to your line of thinking for this to work, probadly
break your own commandments and make war.

Does it say anywhere among these laudable commandments that we are not
supposed to make war? David, who was beloved of God in spite of his
definitely coveting his neighbour's wife (and he did more than covet the
woman, he got her in the family way) waged rather a lot of war. No no,
you've got it all wrong.
I'll have to pay more attention to posts that come from "loveallpeople.org"
Mind you, I don't see the point of this posting. Those who know the 10
commandments are probably well aware of them and those that don't know
probably don't care. And both groups probably don't know Latin.

This is incorrect. I don't know about the Latin, but the original
Hebrew says "Don't Murder." I can only speculate why the Church
fathers mistranslated it to "(Thou shalt) not Kill." But the original in
Hebrew reads "Do not Murder."

It is a genitive of sabbatum so the day (accusative) of sabbath. Literally
the Latin says: remember that you will sanctify the day of the sabbath.
Latin has no definite article. The plural of sabbatum would be sabbata.
Sometimes sabbata is used to denote the singular in Latin. This is called a
plurale tantum (plural only).
How about the original Greek text, is the word "day" present or just
"sabbath"? Is the Greek word for "sabbath" used as singular or
plural?
There is no Greek original, the original was in Hebrew. See Deborah
Sharavi's posting.
The old Septuagint translation (270 BC) had: mnèsthèti tèn hèmeran toon
sabbatoon agiazein autèn. The word day is present, it is hèmeran
(accusative, obviously) It is also present in the original Hebrew: Zachor
et-yom haShabat lekadsho, day in Hebrew is yom.
Here sabbatoon is used in the genitive plural (to sabbaton - ta sabbata)
which answers your question (apparently you do know something about these
things or you wouldn't have asked.) Maybe this is used as a plurale tantum
or, you could say, because there is more than one sabbath that has to be
sanctified. There is a new one each week.
Hope this is of use.

Dear Amos and my Fellowmen,
Thank you very much, Amos, for answering my questions. And to Deborah
Sharavi for posting the original text in Hebrew.
Why is the original Hebrew word of sabbath in the plural form? Is it
because sabbath does not apply only to the weekly seventh-day sabbath
but also to other sabbaths commanded by God? The following are those
sabbaths:
1. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Leviticus 16:29,31; 23:27-32
2. New Year's Day (Rosh Hashanah) - Leviticus 23:24-25
3. Festival of Tabernacles/Booths/Ingathering (Sukkoth) - first and
eighth days - Leviticus 23:35-36,39
These sabbaths are plainly called sabbath (Leviticus 23:24,39) or
sabbath of rest (Leviticus 16:31; 23:32). During these sabbaths,
there is holy convocation, and business and work are proscribed or
banned, like the weekly seventh-day sabbath.
So, it this the reason why the original Hebrew is in plural form?
Can we rewrite the verses to read as follows with sabbath in the
plural form:
Exodus 20:8 - Remember the sabbath days (or the sabbaths) to keep them
holy.
Deuteronomy 5:12 - Keep the sabbath days (or the sabbaths) to sanctify
them, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.
The peace of the true God be with us now and forever.
With love, your brother in Jesus,

there is holy convocation, and business and work are proscribed or
banned, like the weekly seventh-day sabbath.
So, it this the reason why the original Hebrew is in plural form?
Can we rewrite the verses to read as follows with sabbath in the
plural form:
Exodus 20:8 - Remember the sabbath days (or the sabbaths) to keep them
holy.
Deuteronomy 5:12 - Keep the sabbath days (or the sabbaths) to sanctify
them, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee.

Dear Amos and my Fellowmen,
Thank you very much, Amos, for answering my questions. And to Deborah
Sharavi for posting the original text in Hebrew.
Why is the original Hebrew word of sabbath in the plural form?
Is it? As I said I don't know Hebrew, only Latin and Greek.
No it isn't.
The words are 'yom hashabbat'. [day of rest] "Yom' is singular (and,
not that it bears on the meaning of the phrase, so is 'shabbat').
I do admire (envy?) your command of Hebrew. I don't remember if it is your
first language, but I am constantly studying and rehearsing. Norma
It's my second - but don't get too fulsome in your praise. As my
daughter (aged eight at the time) said to her school friend - "Yeah,
of course he speaks Hebrew. But, I tell you, he makes so many
mistakes!"
[Betach hu m'daber ivrit - aval mah, hu oseh hamon shgiot!]
Is it
because sabbath does not apply only to the weekly seventh-day sabbath
but also to other sabbaths commanded by God? The following are those
sabbaths:
1. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Leviticus 16:29,31; 23:27-32
2. New Year's Day (Rosh Hashanah) - Leviticus 23:24-25
3. Festival of Tabernacles/Booths/Ingathering (Sukkoth) - first and
eighth days - Leviticus 23:35-36,39
These sabbaths are plainly called sabbath (Leviticus 23:24,39) or
sabbath of rest (Leviticus 16:31; 23:32). During these sabbaths,
there is holy convocation, and business and work are proscribed or

Relax. I was talking about Keren (my eldest from my first marriage),
who is now 14.
Emily/Ayelet is only five; so three extra years have not slipped past
without you noticing. :-)
Emily is impressed with my Hebrew. It is my mistakes in Japanese that
she laughs at...

She's still a little doll.
For Purim last year, her elder sister, Keren, told she had dressed as
a bunny. "Oh," said I, "You know Emily also dressed a s a little
rabbit - and won first prize..."
"No," said Keren, then aged twelve,"Not a rabbit - a bunny. A Playboy
bunny..."

Like when I asked the subway ticket collector for a transfer to
Onarimon station. Unfortunately, I mispronounced it as "Onaramon" -
which, loosely translated, is "Fartinggate".
Still, not as bad as a friend, who, while explaining a problem to his
landlady confused "oshire"(closet) with "oshiri" (backside) and
explained that there was mould spreading in his bum.

I don't recall the actual words, but the second could have
been one of them. All I remember is that it was a matter
of emphasizing one syllable and not the other which made
the kids laugh.

Dear Amos and my Fellowmen,
Thank you very much, Amos, for answering my questions. And to Deborah
Sharavi for posting the original text in Hebrew.
Why is the original Hebrew word of sabbath in the plural form?
Is it? As I said I don't know Hebrew, only Latin and Greek.
No it isn't.
The words are 'yom hashabbat'. [day of rest] "Yom' is singular (and,
not that it bears on the meaning of the phrase, so is 'shabbat').
If "yom hashabbat" is singular, does this mean to say that the
God-designated sabbath days must be remembered and sanctified?
This is Deborah's post:
"Ex 20.8
Zachor et-yom haShabat lekadsho
Remember the seventh day to keep it holy."
Can we rephrase the commandment as "Remember the day of rest to keep
it holy." or "Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy."?
It does not specifically say in the commandment that it is the seventh
day that should be observed as holy only. God commanded other days to
be made sabbath as well, such as
1. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Leviticus 16:29,31; 23:27-32
2. New Year's Day (Rosh Hashanah) - Leviticus 23:24-25
3. Festival of Tabernacles/Booths/Ingathering (Sukkoth) - first and
eighth days - Leviticus 23:35-36,39
These sabbaths are plainly called sabbath (Leviticus 23:24,39) or
sabbath of rest (Leviticus 16:31; 23:32). During these sabbaths,
there is holy convocation, and business and work are proscribed or
banned, like the weekly seventh-day sabbath.
So the commandment must be for the weekly seventh-day sabbath
(Saturday) AND the sabbaths on major Jewish holy days.
Does this make sense?
The peace of the true God be with us now and forever.

It does not specifically say in the commandment that it is the seventh

It DOES specifically say in the commandment that the shabbat is the
seventh day. To wit:
"Zchor et yom hashabbat l'kadsho. Sheshet yamim taavod veasita kol
malakhtekha. V'YOM HASHVII SHABBAT L'ADONAI ELOHEKHA lo taaseh kol
malakha..."
"Remember the sabbath day to sanctify it. Six days you shall work and
do all your labour. AND THE SEVENTH DAY IS A DAY OF REST [Shabbat] TO
THE LORD YOUR GOD you will not do any labour..."
God commanded other days to
be made sabbath as well, such as
1. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Leviticus 16:29,31; 23:27-32

Does this make sense?
Not especially. There are commandments to keep sabbath days given in
other sections of the Torah. The commandment in the decalogue quite
clearly refers to the seventh day of the week; not to other sabbath
days (which may occur on other days of the week).
It's really very clear and uncomplicated.

"Remember the sabbath day to sanctify it. Six days you shall work and
do all your labour. AND THE SEVENTH DAY IS A DAY OF REST [Shabbat] TO
THE LORD YOUR GOD you will not do any labour..."
From KJV, Exodus 20:8, "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy."
And then Exodus 20:9-10, "Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy
work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: ..."
You are emphasizing that the commandment on Sabbath applies only to
the seventh-day sabbath. Why do you think the commandment is placed
as the first sentence? Is it because sabbath does not apply only to
the seventh day of the week? As I have pointed out, there are other
"sabbaths" or "sabbaths of rest" mentioned in Leviticus that have to
be made holy as well. Why are they called "sabbaths" or "sabbaths of
rest"? Why is that first sentence not emphasizing that it is the
seventh-day sabbath only that is referred to? Why does the verse just
mention that sabbath has to be remembered and kept holy?
Verses 9-10 are explanations for the seventh-day sabbath. The Jewish
days before were just numbered. I understand that the first day of
the Jewish week is Sunday (of course, from sundown or 6 pm of Saturday
to sundown or 6 pm of Sunday); the second day, Monday; the third day,
Tuesday; ..., and the seventh day, Saturday. The seventh day calls
for a day of rest and this is what is called Sabbath. The seventh day
of the Muslims is Friday and the Christians, Sunday. These are their
sabbath days. These are days that have to be made holy. The sabbath
days in Leviticus also call for rest and abstention from business and
work.
What I would like to emphasize here is that the fourth commandment of
observing sabbath and keeping it holy is not confined only to the
seventh-day sabbath but to sabbaths during major Jewish festivals.
The peace of the true God be with us now and forever.

days (which may occur on other days of the week).
It's really very clear and uncomplicated.

Dear Amos and my Fellowmen,
Thank you very much, Amos, for answering my questions. And to Deborah
Sharavi for posting the original text in Hebrew.
Why is the original Hebrew word of sabbath in the plural form?
Is it? As I said I don't know Hebrew, only Latin and Greek.
No it isn't.
The words are 'yom hashabbat'. [day of rest] "Yom' is singular (and,
not that it bears on the meaning of the phrase, so is 'shabbat').
If "yom hashabbat" is singular, does this mean to say that the
God-designated sabbath days must be remembered and sanctified?
This is Deborah's post:
"Ex 20.8
Zachor et-yom haShabat lekadsho
Remember the seventh day to keep it holy."
Can we rephrase the commandment as "Remember the day of rest to keep
it holy." or "Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy."?
It does not specifically say in the commandment that it is the seventh
day that should be observed as holy only.
It DOES specifically say in the commandment that the shabbat is the
seventh day. To wit:
"Zchor et yom hashabbat l'kadsho. Sheshet yamim taavod veasita kol
malakhtekha. V'YOM HASHVII SHABBAT L'ADONAI ELOHEKHA lo taaseh kol
malakha..."
"Remember the sabbath day to sanctify it. Six days you shall work and
do all your labour. AND THE SEVENTH DAY IS A DAY OF REST [Shabbat] TO
THE LORD YOUR GOD you will not do any labour..."
From KJV, Exodus 20:8, "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy."
And then Exodus 20:9-10, "Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy
work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: ..."
You are emphasizing that the commandment on Sabbath applies only to
the seventh-day sabbath.
In the commandment given in Exodus 20, yes. It is perfectly clear from
the commandment that it does refer to the seventh day of the week. It
says so explicitly. How could it possibly be more explicit?
Why do you think the commandment is placed
as the first sentence? Is it because sabbath does not apply only to
the seventh day of the week? As I have pointed out, there are other
"sabbaths" or "sabbaths of rest" mentioned in Leviticus that have to
be made holy as well.
Yes, commandments to observe other days as days of rest, both
individually and collectively, occur elsewhere in the Torah. (Ex. 31,
Lev 19, 23, 24, 26) But the fourth of the ten commandments (Both in
Exodus and Deuteronomy) refers to the seventh day.
Why are they called "sabbaths" or "sabbaths of
rest"?
The word shabbat comes from the verb "lishvot" which means to cease
work. Hence, days on which we are commanded to refrain from work are
called shabats. Very simple really.
Why is that first sentence not emphasizing that it is the
seventh-day sabbath only that is referred to? Why does the verse just
mention that sabbath has to be remembered and kept holy?
Verses 9-10 are explanations for the seventh-day sabbath. The Jewish
days before were just numbered. I understand that the first day of
the Jewish week is Sunday (of course, from sundown or 6 pm of Saturday
to sundown or 6 pm of Sunday); the second day, Monday; the third day,
Tuesday; ..., and the seventh day, Saturday. The seventh day calls
for a day of rest and this is what is called Sabbath. The seventh day
of the Muslims is Friday and the Christians, Sunday. These are their
sabbath days. These are days that have to be made holy. The sabbath
days in Leviticus also call for rest and abstention from business and
work.
What I would like to emphasize here is that the fourth commandment of
observing sabbath and keeping it holy is not confined only to the
seventh-day sabbath but to sabbaths during major Jewish festivals.
And you are talking rubbish. The fourth commandment relates only
seventh day.
The commandment to keep "sabbaths" appears in Leviticus 19:30 -
different book; different set of commandments.
Why isn't this clear to you?
The peace of the true God be with us now and forever.

====================
God commanded other days to
be made sabbath as well, such as
1. Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) - Leviticus 16:29,31; 23:27-32
2. New Year's Day (Rosh Hashanah) - Leviticus 23:24-25
3. Festival of Tabernacles/Booths/Ingathering (Sukkoth) - first and
eighth days - Leviticus 23:35-36,39
Not one of these is mentioned in the ten comandments
These sabbaths are plainly called sabbath (Leviticus 23:24,39) or
sabbath of rest (Leviticus 16:31; 23:32). During these sabbaths,
there is holy convocation, and business and work are proscribed or
banned, like the weekly seventh-day sabbath.
So the commandment must be for the weekly seventh-day sabbath
(Saturday) AND the sabbaths on major Jewish holy days.
Does this make sense?
Not especially. There are commandments to keep sabbath days given in
other sections of the Torah. The commandment in the decalogue quite
clearly refers to the seventh day of the week; not to other sabbath
days (which may occur on other days of the week).
It's really very clear and uncomplicated.

Dear Kim and my Fellowmen,
Thank you very much for answering my questions and clarifying sabbath
as viewed and observed by Jews. I understand that you are emphasizing
that the fourth commandment on Sabbath refers to the Saturday Sabbath
only. We will leave our discussion as that.
In Israel, is Saturday really adhered to as Sabbath and abstention
from work and business is observed? I wish the Christians would treat
Sunday as such also. Unfortunately, not all people believe in God.
So in the west, Sunday is also a trading day but shortened. Instead
of shops opening at 9:00 am or earlier, they open at 10:00 am. And
instead of closing at 5:00 or 5:30 or 6:00 pm, they close at 4:00 pm.
When will we ever give one day in a week for God? What for is the
material wealth that we would want to amass? We cannot even take them
with us when we die, can we? Our soul become very hungry for the
world of God. It is starving. It is malnourished. We should give
time for it to be fed, to be cleansed, to be healed. And God is
asking only one day in seven for this. But some people want to give
only 1/4 of the day, or even 1/8 or even just 1/24 (or 1 hour only).
How selfish man is. I wish man would realize that sabbath has been
made by God for his own benefit. It should not be taken for granted
or ignored.
The peace of the true God be with us now and forever.
Shalom,

Excellent translation of the Latin. However, since the Ten Commandments
were originally written in Hebrew and the Latin translation of the Hebrew
already contained some errors, this isn't terribly helpful (for example, the
original Hebrew was "Don't Murder," not "Thou Shalt Not Kill"

Yes. Most modern Bible translations have it as "Don't murder" or "You
shall not murder," based on the original Hebrew, not Jerome's VULGATE
Latin.
The reason, of course, is why this is important is that the two statements
are differing ethical imperatives. "Thou shalt not kill" (assumedly meaning
"kill other people" would prohibit war, death penalty, and even
self-defense. "Don't Murder" permits just war, self-defense, and the death
penalty.
Interesting discussion. Thank you.
