Deuteronomy 6
1 These are the commandments and rules and regulations that the Lord your God has ordered me to teach you to follow in the country that you're going to enter and occupy.
Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn àṣẹ, ìlànà àti òfin tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín pàṣẹ fún mi láti kọ́ ọ yín kí ẹ lè kíyèsi i, ní ilẹ̀ náà tí ẹ ó ni lẹ́yìn tí ẹ bá kọjá a Jordani.
2 This is so you and your children and grandchildren will show respect to the Lord your God throughout your lives by keeping all his rules and regulations that I give you, and so that you may have a long life.
Kí ẹ̀yin, àwọn ọmọ yín àti àwọn ọmọ wọn, lẹ́yìn wọn bá à lè bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, ní gbogbo ìgbà tí ẹ bá wà láyé, nípa pípa àwọn ìlànà àti àṣẹ rẹ̀ tí mo fún un yín mọ́, kí ẹ bá à lè pẹ́ lórí ilẹ̀.
3 Listen, people of Israel, and be careful to observe them, so that you may do well and have many descendants in a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the Lord, the God of your forefathers, promised you.
Gbọ́ ìwọ Israẹli, kí o sì ṣọ́ra láti gbọ́rọ̀, kí ó bá à lè dára fún ọ, kí o bá à lè gbilẹ̀ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ ní ilẹ̀ tí ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba rẹ ti ṣèlérí fún ọ.
4 Listen, people of Israel, The Lord our God, the Lord is the only one.
Gbọ́ ìwọ Israẹli, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, Olúwa kan ni.
5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your mind and with all your being and with all your strength.
Fẹ́ràn Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ pẹ̀lú gbogbo àyà rẹ àti gbogbo ọkàn rẹ, àti gbogbo agbára rẹ.
6 The commands I'm giving you today must stay in your minds.
Àwọn àṣẹ tí mo fún un yín lónìí gbọdọ̀ máa wà lóókan àyà yín.
7 You are to explain them carefully to your children and talk about them when you're at home and when you're traveling, when you lie down and when you get up.
Ẹ fi kọ́ àwọn ọmọ yín gidigidi. Bí ẹ bá jókòó nínú ilé, ẹ jíròrò nípa wọn, àti nígbà tí ẹ bá ń rìn ní ojú ọ̀nà, bí ẹ bá dùbúlẹ̀ àti nígbà tí ẹ bá dìde.
8 Tie them on your hands as reminders and put them on your foreheads as well.
Ẹ so wọ́n sí ọwọ́ yín fún àmì, ẹ so ó mọ́ iwájú orí yín.
9 Write them on the doorposts of your homes and on your gates.
Kí ìwọ kí ó kọ wọ́n sára òpó ilé rẹ̀, àti sí ara ìlẹ̀kùn ọ̀nà òde rẹ.
10 The Lord your God is going to take you into the country he promised to give you and your forefathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It's a country with large, prosperous towns that you didn't build,
Nígbà tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín bá mú yín dé ilẹ̀ náà tí ó ti búra fún àwọn baba yín, fún Abrahamu, Isaaki, àti Jakọbu láti fi fún un yín, ilẹ̀ tí ó kún fún àwọn ìlú ńlá ńlá tí kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ló kọ́ ọ,
11 with houses full of plenty of good things that you didn't provide, that have wells you didn't dig, and vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant. When you eat and are full
àwọn ilé tí ó kún fún gbogbo ohun mèremère tí kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ló rà wọ́n, àwọn kànga tí ẹ kò gbẹ́, àti àwọn ọgbà àjàrà àti èso olifi tí kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ló gbìn wọ́n. Nígbà tí ẹ bá jẹ tí ẹ sì yó,
12 make sure you don't forget the Lord who led you out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery.
ẹ ṣọ́ra kí ẹ má ṣe gbàgbé Olúwa, tí o mú un yín jáde láti Ejibiti wá, kúrò ní oko ẹrú.
13 Respect the Lord your God only worship him, and only make promises in his name.
Bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, Òun nìkan ni kí o sì máa sìn, búra ní orúkọ rẹ̀ nìkan.
14 Don't worship any other gods, the gods of the peoples around you,
Ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ tẹ̀lé ọlọ́run mìíràn: ọlọ́run àwọn tí ó yí i yín ká;
15 because the Lord your God, who lives among you, is an exclusive God, and Lord your God will become angry with you, and he will wipe you out.
torí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín tí ó wà láàrín yín, Ọlọ́run owú ni, ìbínú rẹ̀ yóò sì run yín kúrò ní ilẹ̀ náà.
16 Don't test the Lord your God like you did at Massah.
Ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ dán Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín wò bí ẹ̀yin ti dán wò ní Massa.
17 You must be careful to keep the commandments of the Lord your God and the laws and rules he's given you.
Ẹ rí i dájú pé ẹ̀ ń pa àwọn òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín mọ́ àti àwọn àṣẹ àti àwọn ìlànà tí ó ti fún un yín.
18 Do what's good and right in the Lord's sight so that it will go well for you and that you may enter and take over the good land that the Lord your God promised to give your forefathers,
Ẹ ṣe èyí tí ó dára tí ó sì tọ́ lójú Olúwa, kí ó bá à lè dára fún un yín, kí ẹ̀yin bá à lè lọ láti gba ilẹ̀ dáradára náà tí Ọlọ́run ti fi ìbúra ṣèlérí fún àwọn baba ńlá a yín.
19 He will drive out all your enemies ahead of you, just as he said.
Ẹ̀yin yóò sì ti àwọn ọ̀tá yín jáde níwájú u yín bí Olúwa ti ṣèlérí.
20 In the future, when your children come and ask you, “What's the point of decrees and rules and regulations that the Lord our God ordered you to follow?”
Ní ọjọ́ iwájú, bí ọmọ rẹ bá béèrè pé, “Kí ni ìtumọ̀ àwọn àṣẹ, ìlànà àti òfin wọ̀nyí tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ti pàṣẹ fún ọ?”
21 then you are to tell them, “Once we were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, but the Lord by his power led us out of Egypt.
Sọ fún un pé: “Ẹrú Farao ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti ni wá tẹ́lẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa fi ọwọ́ agbára ńlá yọ wá jáde lóko ẹrú Ejibiti.
22 Before our very eyes the Lord brought down incredible and terrifying signs and miracles on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his people.
Lójú wa ni Olúwa tí ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu: tí ó lágbára tí ó sì ba ni lẹ́rù: lórí Ejibiti àti Farao, àti gbogbo ènìyàn rẹ̀.
23 But he led us out of there to take us here, giving us this country that he had promised to our forefathers.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó mú wa jáde láti ibẹ̀ wá láti mú wa wọ inú àti láti fún wa ní ilẹ̀ tí ó ti fì búra fún àwọn baba ńlá wa.
24 The Lord ordered us to keep all these laws and to respect the Lord our God, so that we would always be safe and well, as we are today
Olúwa pàṣẹ fún wa láti ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí gbogbo ìlànà wọ̀nyí, láti bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, kí ó ba à lè máa dára fún wa nígbà gbogbo, kí a sì lè wà láyé, bí a ṣe wà títí di òní.
25 And if we carefully observe each of these commandments as we live in the presence of the Lord, as he instructed us, then we will be right with him.”
Bí a bá ṣọ́ra láti pa gbogbo òfin wọ̀nyí mọ́ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, bí ó ti pàṣẹ fún wa, èyí ni yóò máa jẹ́ òdodo wa.”
