et: Tu aimeras le Seigneur, ton Dieu, de tout ton coeur, de toute ton âme, de toute ta pensée, et de toute ta force.
e: Ama il Signore Iddio tuo con tutto il tuo cuore, e con tutta l’anima tua, e con tutta la mente tua, e con tutta la tua forza. Quest’è il primo comandamento. E il secondo, simile, è questo:
Amarás, pois, ao Senhor teu Deus de todo o teu coração, e de toda a tua alma, e de todo o teu entendimento, e de todas as tuas forças; este é o primeiro mandamento.
你要盡心、盡性、盡意、盡力愛主—你的上帝。』
