Deuteronomy 9
1 Hear, O Israel: Today you are about to cross the Jordan to go in and dispossess nations greater and stronger than you, with large cities fortified to the heavens.
Mijanjiña ry Israele! Fa hitsake Iardeney irehe te anito himoaha’o, ho tavane’o ty rofoko bey naho maozatse te ama’o, rova jabajaba, aman-kijoly miningoningo mb’ andikerañe ey;
2 The people are strong and tall, the descendants of the Anakim. You know about them, and you have heard it said, “Who can stand up to the sons of Anak?”
ondaty fatratse naho mijoalajoala o anan-te-Anakeo, toe fohi’o, vaho jinanji’o ty ama’e ty hoe, Ia ty mahafijohañe aolo’ o nte-Anakeo?
3 But understand that today the LORD your God goes across ahead of you as a consuming fire; He will destroy them and subdue them before you. And you will drive them out and annihilate them swiftly, as the LORD has promised you.
Aa le mahafohina anito te hiaolo azo hitsake mb’eo manahake ty afo mamorototo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; ho rotsahe’e iereo vaho hampiambanè’e aolo’o eo, handroaha’o naho ho zamane’o aniany, amy nitsarae’ Iehovà ama’oy.
4 When the LORD your God has driven them out before you, do not say in your heart, “Because of my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land.” Rather, the LORD is driving out these nations before you because of their wickedness.
Ie hasiotsio’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o aolo’o eo, le ko manao añ’ arofo’o ao ty hoe, Ty havantañako ty nanesea’ Iehovà ahy himoneñako an-tane atoy, te mone ty halò-tsere’ o fifeheañeo ty nandroaha’ Iehovà iareo aolo’o mb’eo.
5 It is not because of your righteousness or uprightness of heart that you are going in to possess their land, but it is because of their wickedness that the LORD your God is driving out these nations before you, to keep the promise He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Tsy ty havañona’o ndra ty havantañan’ arofo’o ty hionjona’o hitavañe ty tane’ iareo, te mone ty haratia’ o fifelehañe retiañe ty aniora’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o iareo aolo’o eo hañenefa’ Iehovà i nitsara’e am-panta aman-droae’oy, amy Avrahame, Ietsàke vaho Iakobe.
6 Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the LORD your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.
Mahafohina te tsy ty hamarentane’o ty anolora’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ama’o ty tane fiaintane toy hitavana’o, ihe foko gan-katoke.
7 Remember this, and never forget how you provoked the LORD your God in the wilderness. From the day you left the land of Egypt until you reached this place, you have been rebelling against the LORD.
Tiahio, le ko haliño ty nampiviñera’o Iehovà Andrianañahare’o am-patrambey añe; toe niola am’ Iehovà nahareo mifototse amy andro niavota’o an-tane Mitsraimey am-para’ te nipok’atoy.
8 At Horeb you provoked the LORD, and He was angry enough to destroy you.
Mbore nampiviñere’ areo e Korebe añe t’Iehovà, le akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà ama’ areo kanao ho zinama’e.
9 When I went up on the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that the LORD made with you, I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. I ate no bread and drank no water.
Izaho niañambone’ i vohitsey handrambe i ravem-bato rey, i ravem-batom-pañina nanoe’ Iehovà ho anahareoy, ie nitambatse am-bohitse ey efa-polo andro naho efa-polo haleñe, tsy nihinan-kane tsy ninon-drano.
10 Then the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, inscribed by the finger of God with the exact words that the LORD spoke to you out of the fire on the mountain on the day of the assembly.
Le natolo’ Iehovà ahy i ravem-bato roe sinokin-drambom-pitàn’ Añahare rey; ama’e eo ze hene tsara nitsarae’ Iehovà ama’ areo boak’ añ’ afo ao amy vohitsey añ’ andro’ i valobohòkey.
11 And at the end of forty days and forty nights, the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, the tablets of the covenant.
Ie nimodo i efapolo andro naho efa-polo haleñe rey le natolo’ Iehovà ahiko i ravem-bato roe rey, i ravem-pañina rey.
12 And the LORD said to me, “Get up and go down from here at once, for your people, whom you brought out of Egypt, have corrupted themselves. How quickly they have turned aside from the way that I commanded them! They have made for themselves a molten image.”
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Miongaha, naho mizotsoa mb’eo masìka amy te nameta vatañe ondaty nente’o boake Mitsraimeo, nitsile aniany amy lalañe liniliko am’iareo horiheñey, nampitranake saren-draha.
13 The LORD also said to me, “I have seen this people, and they are indeed a stiff-necked people.
Mbore nitsara amako t’Iehovà, ami’ty hoe, Fa nitreako ondaty retiañe, toe gan-katoke ondatio.
14 Leave Me alone, so that I may destroy them and blot out their name from under heaven. Then I will make you into a nation mightier and greater than they are.”
Apoho habaibaiko iareo le ho fòrako ambanen-dikerañe ao ty tahina’ iareo vaho hanoeko foko maozatse irehe, ho jabajaba te am’ iereo.
15 So I went back down the mountain while it was blazing with fire, with the two tablets of the covenant in my hands.
Aa le nitolike iraho nizotso amy vohitsey ie nisolebotse iaby i vohitsey; an-tañako roe i ravem-pañina roe rey.
16 And I saw how you had sinned against the LORD your God; you had made for yourselves a molten calf. You had turned aside quickly from the way that the LORD had commanded you.
Le nitreako t’ie vata’e nanao hakeo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo amy nampitranaha’ areo sare baniay; nalisa nandifik’ amy lalañe nandilia’ Iehovày.
17 So I took the two tablets and threw them out of my hands, shattering them before your eyes.
Nivontitireko amy zao i rave’e roe rey le naretsako boak’ an-tañako roe vaho nivolentsañe añatrefam-pihaino’ areo.
18 Then I fell down before the LORD for forty days and forty nights, as I had done the first time. I did not eat bread or drink water because of all the sin you had committed in doing what was evil in the sight of the LORD and provoking Him to anger.
Nibabok’ añatrefa’ Iehovà amy zao iraho, manahake i teoy, efapolo andro naho efa-polo haleñe, tsy nihinan-kane tsy ninon-drano ty amo hakeo nanoe’ areo iabio naho nanao haratiañe añatrefa’ Iehovà hampiviñetse aze.
19 For I was afraid of the anger and wrath that the LORD had directed against you, enough to destroy you. But the LORD listened to me this time as well.
Fa nihemban-draho ami’ty filoroloron-kaviñera’ Iehovà ama’ areo hera harotsa’e, fe nañaoñ’ ahy henane zay ka t’Iehovà.
20 The LORD was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him, but at that time I also prayed for Aaron.
Akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà amy Aharone kanao ho nañohofa’e loza, fe nihalaliako ka henane zay.
21 And I took that sinful thing, the calf you had made, and burned it in the fire. Then I crushed it and ground it to powder as fine as dust, and I cast it into the stream that came down from the mountain.
Rinambeko amy zao ty tahi’ areo, i bania maleotse natrana’ areoy, le finorototoko añ’afo ao naho dinemodemoko naho linisako ho bo’e, eka ndra pilipito’e ampara’ te ni-deboke vaho nahifiko amy torahañe mikararake boak’ am-bohitsey i lembo’ey.
22 You continued to provoke the LORD at Taberah, at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah.
Mbore nampiviñere’ areo t’Iehovà e Taberà naho e Masà, naho e Kibrote-hatavà añe.
23 And when the LORD sent you out from Kadesh-barnea, He said, “Go up and possess the land that I have given you.” But you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God. You neither believed Him nor obeyed Him.
Le ie nirahe’ Iehovà mb’e Kadese-barnea mb’eo ami’ty hoe, Mionjona, tavano i tane natoloko anahareoy, le niola amy nandilia’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areoy, tsy niantoke vaho tsy nijanjiñe i fiarañanaña’ey.
24 You have been rebelling against the LORD since the day I came to know you.
Toe fa zineha’ areo t’Iehovà amo hene andro nahafohinako anahareoo.
25 So I fell down before the LORD for forty days and forty nights, because the LORD had said He would destroy you.
Aa le handro am-pohatse ty nibabohako añatrefa’ Iehovà, efa-polo andro naho efa-polo haleñe ty nibabohako amy tsinara’ Iehovày t’ie hanjamañe anahareo,
26 And I prayed to the LORD and said, “O Lord GOD, do not destroy Your people, Your inheritance, whom You redeemed through Your greatness and brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
aa le nihalaly am’ Iehovà iraho nanao ty hoe, Ry Talè Iehovà, ko ampikoromahe’o ondati’oo—o lova’oo, o nijebañe’o ami’ty hajabahina’o, ie nampiengà’o i Mitsraime am-pitàñe maozatseo.
27 Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Overlook the stubbornness of this people and the wickedness of their sin.
Tiahio i mpitoro’o rey, i Avrahame, Ietsàke, naho Iakobe, le ko haoñe’o ty fanjehara’ ondatio, ty halò-tsere’ iareo naho o hakeo’ iareoo,
28 Otherwise, those in the land from which You brought us out will say, ‘Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land He had promised them, and because He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.’
tsy mone hanao ty hoe i tane’ nampiengà’o anaiy: Kanao tsy nahafanese iareo mb’an-tane nampitamae’e añe t’Iehovà, mbore ami’ty fihejea’e, le nasese’e am-patrambey ao hikoromake;
29 But they are Your people, Your inheritance, whom You brought out by Your great power and outstretched arm.”
f’ie ondati’o naho lova’o, o nampiengà’o an-kaozara’o ra’elahy vaho am-pità’o natora-kitsio.
