וְלֹ֣א תָס֗וּר מִכָּל־הַדְּבָרִים֙ אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָנֹכִ֜י מְצַוֶּ֥ה אֶתְכֶ֛ם הַיּ֖וֹם יָמִ֣ין וּשְׂמֹ֑אול לָלֶ֗כֶת אַחֲרֵ֛י אֱלֹהִ֥ים אֲחֵרִ֖ים לְעָבְדָֽם׃ (ס)
A nie odstąpisz od wszystkich słów, które przykazuję ci dzisiaj, ani na prawo, ani na lewo, idąc za bóstwami cudzemi, by służyć im.
On the Posterity of Cain and his Exile
[102] This royal road then, which we have just said to be true and genuine philosophy, is called in the Law the utterance and word of God. For it is written “Thou shalt not swerve aside from the word which I command thee this day to the right hand nor to the left hand” (Deut. 28:14). Thus it is clearly proved that the word of God is identical with the royal road. He treats the two as synonymous, and bids us decline from neither, but with upright mind tread the track that leads straight on, a central highway.
