< Deuteronomy 11 >

1 So have love for the Lord your God, and give him worship, and keep his laws and his decisions and his orders at all times.
Hụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nʼanya, na-edebezukwa ikpe ya na ụkpụrụ ya na ihe niile o nyere nʼiwu.
2 And be certain in your minds this day; for these words are not said to your children, who have had no experience of the training of the Lord your God, and who have not seen his great power or his strong hand and his stretched-out 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 Or his signs and wonders which he did in Egypt, to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and 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 their war-carriages; how he made the waters of the Red Sea come up over them when they went after you, and how the Lord put an end to them even 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 for you in the waste land, till 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; when they went down into the open mouth of the earth, with their families and their tents and every living thing which was theirs, before the eyes 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 the great works of the Lord which he has done.
Ma ọ bụ anya unu hụrụ oke ihe ịtụnanya ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị mere.
8 So keep all the orders which I give you today, so that you may be strong, and go in and take the land which is to be your heritage;
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 your days may be long in the land which the Lord gave by an oath to your fathers and to their seed after them, 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 are going is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you put in your seeds, watering them with your foot, like a planted garden:
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 where you are going is a land of hills and valleys, drinking in the rain of heaven:
Ma ala unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta bụ ala nwere ugwu na ndagwurugwu, nke na-aṅụ mmiri ozuzo si nʼeluigwe.
12 A land cared for by the Lord your God: the eyes of the Lord your God are on it at all times from one end of the year to the other.
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 And it will be that if you truly give ear to the orders which I put before you this day, loving the Lord your God and worshipping him with all your heart and 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 Then I will send rain on your land at the right time, the early rains and the late rains, so that you may get in your grain and your 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 And I will give grass in your fields for your cattle, so that you may have food in full measure.
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 But take care that your hearts are not turned to false ways so that you become servants and worshippers of other gods;
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 For if you do so, the wrath of the Lord will be burning against you, and the heaven will be shut up so that there is no rain and the land will give no fruit; and in a very little time you will be cut off from the good land which the Lord is giving 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 So keep these words deep in your heart and in your soul, and have them fixed on your hand for a sign and marked on your brow;
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 Teaching them to your children, and talking of them when you are at rest in your house or walking by the way, when you go to sleep and when you get 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 Writing them on the pillars of your houses and over the doors of your towns:
Dee ha nʼelu ibo ọnụ ụlọ gị na nke ọnụ ụzọ ama gị.
21 So that your days, and the days of your children, may be long in the land which the Lord by his oath to your fathers said he would give them, like the days of the eternal heavens.
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 take care to keep all the orders which I give you, and to do them; loving the Lord your God and walking in all his ways and being true 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 send these nations in flight before you, and you will take the lands of nations greater and stronger 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 where you put your foot will be yours: from the waste land and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates as far as the Great Sea, will be the limits of your land.
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 All people will give way before you: for the Lord your God will put the fear of you on all the land through which you go, as he has said.
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 Today I put before you a blessing and a curse:
Lee, taa, ana m eche nʼihu unu ngọzị Onyenwe anyị na ọbụbụ ọnụ.
27 The blessing if you give ear to the orders of the Lord your God, which I give you this day:
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 give ear to the orders of the Lord your God, but let yourselves be turned from the way which I have put before you this day, and go after other gods which are not yours.
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 And when the Lord your God has taken you into the land of your heritage, you are to put 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 they not on the other side of Jordan, looking west, in the land of the Canaanites living in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, by the holy tree 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 about to go over Jordan to take the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you, and it will be your resting-place.
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 And you are to take care to keep all the laws and the decisions which I put before you today.
hụnụ na unu rubere isi debe iwu niile na ụkpụrụ niile m na-eche nʼihu unu taa.
