Deuteronomy 11
1 Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his instructions, his statutes, his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
Hụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nʼanya, na-edebezukwa ikpe ya na ụkpụrụ ya na ihe niile o nyere nʼiwu.
2 Know this day—for I do not speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm,
Chetanụ taa na ọ bụghị ụmụ unu, kama ọ bụ unu onwe unu jiri anya unu hụ ịdọ aka na ntị Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Ọ bụ unu hụrụ ịdị ukwuu ya, ịdị ike ya, ịrụsị ọrụ ike nke ike ya,
3 his signs, and his works, which he did in the middle of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
ihe ịrịbama ya niile na ihe niile o mere nʼIjipt, otu o si megide Fero eze Ijipt na ndị ala Ijipt niile.
4 and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued you, and how the LORD has destroyed them to this day;
Unu hụrụ ihe o mere ndị agha Ijipt na ịnyịnya ha, na ụgbọ agha ha. Otu o si mee ka ha laa nʼiyi nʼime Osimiri Uhie, mgbe ha na-achụ unu ọsọ, na otu Onyenwe anyị si wetara ha ịla nʼiyi ebighị ebi.
5 and what he did to you in the wilderness until you came to this place;
Ọ bụghị ụmụ unu hụrụ ihe o meere unu nʼoge ahụ niile unu nọ nʼọzara tutu unu erute nʼebe a,
6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben—how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the middle of all Israel;
na ihe o mere Datan na Abiram, ụmụ Eliab, ndị si nʼebo Ruben, otu ala si meghee ọnụ ya loda ha, ha na ezinaụlọ ha, ụlọ ikwu ha na ihe ọbụla nke dị ndụ ha nwere nʼetiti Izrel niile.
7 but your eyes have seen all of the LORD’s great work which he did.
Ma ọ bụ anya unu hụrụ oke ihe ịtụnanya ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị mere.
8 Therefore you shall keep the entire commandment which I command you today, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land that you go over to possess;
Lezienụ anya debe iwu ndị a m na-enye unu taa, ka unu nwee ike, baa bichikwaa ala ahụ unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta,
9 and that you may prolong your days in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, a land flowing with milk and honey.
ka unu bie ogologo ndụ nʼime ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ṅụrụ nʼiyi inye nna nna unu ha, na ụmụ ụmụ ha, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya.
10 For the land, where you go in to possess is not like the land of Egypt that you came out of, where you sowed your seed and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs;
Nʼihi na ala a unu na-aga ịbanye nʼime ya inweta adịghị ka ala Ijipt, ebe unu si pụta, ebe ị na-agha mkpụrụ gị, were ụkwụ tụwara mmiri ụzọ, dịka a na-eme nʼubi akwụkwọ nri.
11 but the land that you go over to possess is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water from the rain of the sky,
Ma ala unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta bụ ala nwere ugwu na ndagwurugwu, nke na-aṅụ mmiri ozuzo si nʼeluigwe.
12 a land which the LORD your God cares for. The LORD your God’s eyes are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
Ọ bụ ala nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼonwe ya na-elekọta! Site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, sitekwa na mbido afọ ruo nʼọgwụgwụ afọ, anya ya adịghị apụ na ya.
13 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you today, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na unu ga-eji ntụkwasị obi rube isi nʼiwu ya niile, nke m na-enye unu taa, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-eji obi unu niile na mmụọ unu niile hụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼanya, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-efe ya ofufe,
14 that I will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.
ọ ga na-ezite mmiri ozuzo nʼoge ya, mmiri ozuzo nke mbụ na nke ikpeazụ, nke ga-eme ka ọka unu mịa mkpụrụ hiri nne, ka unu nwee ọtụtụ vaịnị, nweekwa mmanụ oliv.
15 I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
Ọ ga-eme ka anụ ụlọ gị nwee ahịhịa ha ga-ata, gị onwe gị ga-enwekwa ihe oriri dị ukwuu. Afọ ga-ejukwa gị nʼihe i nwere.
16 Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn away to serve other gods and worship them;
Ma lezienụ anya, ka ahapụ ịrafu obi unu mee ka unu wezuga onwe unu, bido ife chi ndị ọzọ ofufe, kpọọkwa isiala nye ha.
17 and the LORD’s anger be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky so that there is no rain, and the land does not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.
Mgbe ahụ, iwe Onyenwe anyị ga-adị ọkụ nʼebe unu nọ, ọ ga-agbachi eluigwe, mmiri agaghị ezo, ala agaghị epupụtakwa ihe ubi, unu ga-alakwa nʼiyi nʼotu ntabi anya, nʼezi ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị na-enye unu.
18 Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
Meenụ ka okwu m ndị a dịgide nʼobi unu na nʼime mmụọ unu. Keenụ ha dịka ihe ịrịbama nʼelu aka unu, kekwasịkwa ha dịka ihe ncheta nʼegedege ihu unu.
19 You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
Kuzierenụ ha ụmụ unu, na-ekwu ihe banyere ha mgbe ị na-anọdụ nʼụlọ gị, na mgbe ị na-aga nʼokporoụzọ, mgbe ị na-edina ala na mgbe i si nʼihe ndina bilie.
20 You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates;
Dee ha nʼelu ibo ọnụ ụlọ gị na nke ọnụ ụzọ ama gị.
21 that your days and your children’s days may be multiplied in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
Ka ụbọchị ndụ unu na nke ụmụ unu dị ogologo nʼala ahụ unu na-aga ibi nʼime ya, nke Onyenwe anyị kwere nna unu na nkwa. Dịka ogologo ụbọchị niile ha nke eluigwe dị nʼelu, ụwa dịkwa nʼokpuru ya.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you—to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him—
Ọ bụrụ na unu elezie anya debe iwu niile m na-enye unu taa, na-ahụkwa Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼanya, na-eso ụzọ ya, na-adaberekwa na ya,
23 then the LORD will drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
Onyenwe anyị ga-achụpụ mba niile bi nʼala ahụ unu na-aga inweta, unu ga-anapụkwa ha ala ahụ, ọ bụladị na ha buru ibu, siekwa ike karịa unu.
24 Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the western sea shall be your border.
Ebe ọbụla unu zọnyere ụkwụ unu nʼala ahụ aghọọla nke unu, site na ndịda Negeb ruo Lebanọn, sitekwa nʼOsimiri Yufretis ruo Osimiri Mediterenịa. Ha ga-abụ nke unu.
25 No man will be able to stand before you. The LORD your God will lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you tread on, as he has spoken to you.
Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla pụrụ imegide unu nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-emenye ha egwu na ụjọ nʼafọ nʼụzọ ọbụla unu na-aga, dịka o kwere na nkwa.
26 Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse:
Lee, taa, ana m eche nʼihu unu ngọzị Onyenwe anyị na ọbụbụ ọnụ.
27 the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today;
Ngọzị ga-adịrị unu ma ọ bụrụ na unu edebe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, nke m na-enye unu taa.
28 and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn away out of the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
Nkọcha ahụ ga-adị ma ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ irube isi nye iwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke unu, wezuga onwe unu nʼụzọ ahụ nke m nyere unu nʼiwu taa site nʼịgbaso chi ndị ọzọ, nke unu na-amaghị.
29 It shall happen, when the LORD your God brings you into the land that you go to possess, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu mere ka unu nweta ala ahụ, a ga-esite nʼelu ugwu Gerizim kwupụta ngọzị ga-adịrị unu, a ga-esitekwa nʼelu ugwu Ebal kwupụta ọbụbụ ọnụ ga-adakwasị unu.
30 Are not they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah near Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
Gerizim na Ebal bụ ugwu dị nʼofe Jọdan, nʼakụkụ okporoụzọ dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ. Ọ dị nso nʼebe osisi ukwu ndị ahụ toro na More, nʼala ndị Kenan ahụ bi nʼAraba, nʼakụkụ Gilgal.
31 For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it.
Nʼihi na unu na-aga ịgafe osimiri Jọdan, ịbanye nweta ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu na-enye unu. Mgbe unu nwetara ya biri nʼime ya,
32 You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you today.
hụnụ na unu rubere isi debe iwu niile na ụkpụrụ niile m na-eche nʼihu unu taa.
