den ich euren Vätern gebot des Tages, da ich sie aus Ägyptenland führte, aus einem eisernen Ofen, und sprach: Gehorchet meiner Stimme und tut, wie ich euch geboten habe, so sollt ihr mein Volk sein, und ich will euer Gott sein,
El cual mandé a vuestros padres el día que los saqué de la tierra de Egipto, del horno de hierro, diciéndoles: Oíd mi voz, y ejecutad aquéllas, conforme a todo lo que os mando, y me seréis por pueblo, y yo seré a vosotros por Dios;
que mandé a sus antepasados el día que los saqué de la tierra de Egipto, del horno de hierro, diciendo: ‘Escuchen mi voz y hagan todo lo que les ordeno. Ustedes serán mi pueblo y yo seré su Dios’,
Que j'ai prescrite à vos pères, Le jour où je les ai fait sortir du pays d'Egypte, De la fournaise de fer, en disant: Ecoutez ma voix, et faites tout ce que je vous ordonnerai; Alors vous serez mon peuple, Je serai votre Dieu,

Que ordenei a vossos pais no dia em que os tirei da terra do Egito, da fornalha de ferro, dizendo: Dai ouvidos à minha voz, e fazei conforme a tudo quanto vos mando; e vós sereis o meu povo, e eu serei o vosso Deus.
