Devarim 26
הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ מְצַוְּךָ לַעֲשׂוֹת אֶת־הַחֻקִּים הָאֵלֶּה וְאֶת־הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים וְשָׁמַרְתָּ וְעָשִׂיתָ אוֹתָם בְּכׇל־לְבָבְךָ וּבְכׇל־נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃
This very day, Adonoy, your God, commands you to perform these statutes and the laws; you shall observe and perform them wholeheartedly and with your whole being.
This very day, Adonoy, your God, commands you to perform these statutes and the laws; you shall observe and perform them wholeheartedly and with your whole being.
Rashi
ושמרת ועשית אותם. בַּת קוֹל מְבָרַכְתּוֹ — הֵבֵאתָ בִכּוּרִים הַיּוֹם, תִּזְכֶּה לְשָׁנָה הַבָּאָה (שם):
You shall observe and perform them. A heavenly echo blesses him; ‘You have brought the first fruits on this day — may you reiterate next year.’
אֶת־יְהֹוָה הֶאֱמַרְתָּ הַיּוֹם לִהְיוֹת לְךָ לֵֽאלֹהִים וְלָלֶכֶת בִּדְרָכָיו וְלִשְׁמֹר חֻקָּיו וּמִצְוֺתָיו וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו וְלִשְׁמֹעַ בְּקֹלֽוֹ׃
Adonoy, you have distinguised today to be a God for you and to go in His ways and to guard His statutes and His commandments and His laws, and to obey Him.
Adonoy, you have distinguised today to be a God for you and to go in His ways and to guard His statutes and His commandments and His laws, and to obey Him.
Rashi
האמרת … האמירך. אֵין לָהֶם עֵד מוֹכִיחַ בַּמִּקְרָא, וְלִי נִרְאֶה שֶׁהוּא לְשׁוֹן הַפְרָשָׁה וְהַבְדָּלָה — הִבְדַּלְתָּ לְךָ מֵאֱלֹהֵי הַנֵּכָר לִהְיוֹת לְךָ לֵאלֹהִים וְהוּא הִפְרִישְׁךָ אֵלָיו מֵעַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ לִהְיוֹת לוֹ לְעַם סְגֻלָּה, וּמָצָאתִי לָהֶם עֵד וְהוּא לְשׁוֹן תִּפְאֶרֶת כְּמוֹ (תהלים צ"ד) "יִתְאַמְּרוּ כָּל פֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן":
You have distinguished . . . He has distinguished you. There is no compelling evidence concerning these words in Scripture; but it appears to me that the word denotes setting aside, distinguishing — you have distinguished Him, from the alien gods, to be your God, and He set you aside, for Himself, from the peoples of the earth, to be His treasured people. (Another interpretation, to which I have found evidence; it denotes glory, as in “All evildoers glorify themselves.”)
וַֽיהֹוָה הֶאֱמִֽירְךָ הַיּוֹם לִהְיוֹת לוֹ לְעַם סְגֻלָּה כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר־לָךְ וְלִשְׁמֹר כׇּל־מִצְוֺתָֽיו׃
And Adonoy has distinguished you today to be for Him a treasured people as He said to you, and to guard all His commandments.
And Adonoy has distinguished you today to be for Him a treasured people as He said to you, and to guard all His commandments.
Rashi
כאשר דבר לך. וִהְיִיתֶם לִי סְגֻלָּה:
As He said to you. “You shall be My treasure.”
וּֽלְתִתְּךָ עֶלְיוֹן עַל כׇּל־הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לִתְהִלָּה וּלְשֵׁם וּלְתִפְאָרֶת וְלִֽהְיֹתְךָ עַם־קָדֹשׁ לַיהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֵּֽר׃ {פ}
And to place you superior to all the nations whom He made, for praise and for renown and for glory, and so that you may be a people sanctified to Adonoy, your God, as He said.
And to place you superior to all the nations whom He made, for praise and for renown and for glory, and so that you may be a people sanctified to Adonoy, your God, as He said.
Rashi
ולהיותך עם קדש … כאשר דבר. וִהְיִיתֶם לִי קְדֹשִׁים (שמות כ', כ"ו):
And, so that you may be a people sanctified as He said. “You shall be sanctified to me.”
היום הזה ה' אלהיך מצוך. בְּכָל יוֹם יִהְיוּ בְעֵינֶיךָ חֲדָשִׁים כְּאִלּוּ בוֹ בַיּוֹם נִצְטַוֵּיתָ עֲלֵיהֶם (תנחומא):
This very day, Adonoy, your God, commands you. Each day let them appear novel to you, as if, on that very day, you had been commanded to perform them.
