< Deuteronomy 32 >

1 Hearken, ye heauens, and I will speake: and let the earth heare the words of my mouth.
Gee ntị, gị eluigwe, nụrụ ihe m na-ekwu! Gee ntị, ụwa, nụrụ okwu si m nʼọnụ.
2 My doctrine shall drop as the raine, and my speach shall stil as the dew, as the showre vpon the herbes, and as the great raine vpon the grasse.
Ka okwu m daa dịka mmiri ozuzo ka okwu m daa dịka igirigi, ka ọ daa dịka nshansha mmiri nʼelu ahịhịa, dịka oke mmiri ozuzo nʼahịhịa na-epupụta epupụta.
3 For I will publish the name of the Lord: giue ye glorie vnto our God.
Aga m eto aha Onyenwe anyị toonu ịdị ukwuu Chineke anyị!
4 Perfect is the worke of the mighty God: for all his wayes are iudgement. God is true, and without wickednesse: iust, and righteous is he.
Ọ bụ oke nkume ahụ, ọrụ ya zuruoke, ụzọ ya niile ziri ezi. Chineke kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, nke na-adịghị eme ihe ọjọọ, onye ezi omume na onye ziri ezi ka ọ bụ.
5 They haue corrupted them selues towarde him by their vice, not being his children, but a frowarde and crooked generation.
Ha emerụọla onwe ha, ha abụkwaghị ụmụ ya, ha bụ ọgbọ gbagọrọ agbagọ, ndị ụdịdị ha gbanwere agbanwe
6 Doe ye so rewarde the Lord, O foolish people and vnwise? is not he thy father, that hath bought thee? he hath made thee, and proportioned thee.
Ọ bụ otu a ka unu si emeso Onyenwe anyị unu ndị nzuzu, ndị na-enweghị uche? Onyenwe anyị ọ bụghị nna unu, onye kere unu, onye kpụrụ unu mee ka unu guzosie ike?
7 Remember the dayes of olde: consider the yeeres of so many generations: aske thy father, and he will shewe thee: thine Elders, and they will tell thee.
Cheta ụbọchị ochie ndị ahụ gara aga, tulee ọgbọ ndị ahụ gara aga jụọ nna gị, ọ ga-akọrọ gị. Jụọ ndị okenye gị, ha ga-eme ka o doo gị anya.
8 When the most hie God deuided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sonnes of Adam, he appoynted the borders of the people, according to the nomber of the children of Israel.
Mgbe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu nyere mba ọbụla ihe nketa nke ha, mgbe o kesara ụmụ mmadụ, mgbe o guzobere oke ala nye ndị niile dịka ọnụọgụgụ ụmụ Izrel si dị.
9 For the Lordes portion is his people: Iaakob is the lot of his inheritance.
Nʼihi na oke Onyenwe anyị nwetara bụ ndị ya Jekọb bụ ihe nketa e kenyere ya.
10 He found him in ye land of ye wildernes, in a waste, and roaring wildernes: he led him about, he taught him, and kept him as ye apple of his eye.
Nʼala dị nʼọzara ka ọ chọtara ya, nʼala tọgbọrọ nʼefu, nke kpọrọ nkụ. O kpuchitere ya, lezie ya anya, o chebere ya dịka ọ bụ mkpụrụ anya ya,
11 As an eagle stereth vp her nest, flootereth ouer her birdes, stretcheth out her wings, taketh them, and beareth them on her wings,
dịka ugo nke na-akpọte ụmụ dị nʼakwụ ya, nke na-erugharị nʼelu ụmụ ya, nke na-agbasapụ nku ya ijide ha, nke na-ebu ha na nku ya,
12 So the Lord alone led him, and there was no strange god with him.
Onyenwe anyị naanị ya duru ya, chi ala ọzọ esokwaghị ya.
13 He caryed him vp to the hie places of the earth, that he might eate the fruites of the fieldes, and he caused him to sucke hony out of the stone, and oyle out of the hard rocke:
O mere ka ọ rịkwasị nʼebe niile dị elu nke ala ahụ, jiri mkpụrụ na-amị nʼala ubi ahụ zụọ ya. O ji mmanụ aṅụ si na nkume zụọ ya, ya na mmanụ si nʼoke nkume,
14 Butter of kine, and milke of sheepe with fat of the lambes, and rammes fed in Bashan, and goates, with the fat of the graines of wheat, and the red licour of the grape hast thou drunke.
na mmiri ara rahụrụ arahụ nke igwe ehi, na mmiri ara rahụrụ arahụ nke igwe ewu na atụrụ, na ụmụ atụrụ na mkpi gbara abụba, na oke ebule Bashan dị ezi mma, tinyere ezi obi ọka wiiti. Ị ṅụkwara mmanya na-agbọ ụfụfụ, nke bụ ọbara mkpụrụ vaịnị.
15 But he that should haue bene vpright, when he waxed fat, spurned with his heele: thou art fat, thou art grosse, thou art laden with fatnes: therefore he forsooke God that made him, and regarded not the strong God of his saluation.
Ma Jeshurun mara abụba, ma gbagharịa ụkwụ ya, ebe nri juru ya ọnụ, o buru ibu, maa mma ile anya. Ọ hapụrụ Chineke kpụrụ ya, jụ oke nkume ahụ, bụ Onye Nzọpụta ya.
16 They prouoked him with strange gods: they prouoked him to anger with abominations.
Ha sitere na chi ndị ala ọzọ ha kpasuo ekworo ya, meekwa ka iwe wee ya nʼihi ihe arụ nke arụsị ha.
17 They offred vnto deuils, not to God, but to gods whome they knew not: new gods that came newly vp, whome their fathers feared not.
Ha chụrụ aja nye ụmụ mmụọ, ndị na-abụghị Chineke, bụ chi ndị ha na-amaghị, chi ndị ka pụtara ọhụrụ, chi ndị ahụ nna nna ha na-atụghị ụjọ ha.
18 Thou hast forgotten the mightie God that begate thee, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
Ị gbakụtara Oke Nkume ahụ mụrụ gị azụ, i chefuru Chineke ahụ mụrụ gị.
19 The Lord then sawe it, and was angrie, for the prouocation of his sonnes and of his daughters.
Onyenwe anyị hụrụ ihe dị otu a, jụ ha, nʼihi na ụmụ ya ndị ikom na ndị inyom kpasuru ya iwe.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from the: I will see what their ende shalbe: for they are a frowarde generation, children in who is no faith.
“Aga m ezo ihu m nʼebe ha nọ,” ka o kwuru, “ka m hụ ihe ọnọdụ ikpeazụ ha ga-abụ, nʼihi na ha bụ ọgbọ gbagọrọ agbagọ, ụmụ na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi.
21 They haue moued me to ielousie with that which is not God: they haue prouoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will moue them to ielousie with those which are no people: I wil prouoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
Ha esitela nʼihe na-abụghị chi kpalie ekworo m, jiri arụsị ha na-abaghị uru mee ka iwe wee m. Mụ onwe m ga-esite na ndị na-abụghị ndị kpalie ekworo ha, sitekwa na mba na-enweghị nghọta kpalie iwe ya.
22 For fire is kindled in my wrath, and shall burne vnto the bottome of hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountaines. (Sheol h7585)
Nʼihi na a mụnyela ọkụ nʼọnụma m, ọkụ ga-enwu ruo ala mmụọ nʼokpuru ụwa. Ọ ga-erepịa ụwa na mkpụrụobi niile, ọ ga-amụnye ọkụ na ntọala ugwu ukwu niile. (Sheol h7585)
23 I will spend plagues vpon them: I will bestowe mine arrowes vpon them.
“Aga m ekpokwasị mbibi nʼelu ha, zipụ àkụ m niile megide ha.
24 They shalbe burnt with hunger, and consumed with heate, and with bitter destruction: I will also sende the teeth of beastes vpon them, with the venime of serpents creeping in the dust.
Aga m eziga ọnwụ na-eripịa eripịa megide ha, na ịla nʼiyi nke na-ebibi ebibi, na ọrịa ọjọọ na-egbu egbu. Aga m eziga anụ ọhịa ndị ga-eji eze tapịasịa ha, na ajụala na-akpụ akpụ nʼuzuzu, nke elo ọnwụ dị nʼọnụ ya.
25 The sworde shall kill them without, and in the chambers feare: both the yong man and the yong woman, the suckeling with the man of gray heare.
Nʼokporoụzọ, mma agha ga-eme ka ha gbara aka ụmụ, nʼime ụlọ ha, ihe oke egwu ga-abịakwasị ha. Ụmụ okorobịa na agbọghọbịa ga-ala nʼiyi, ọ bụladị ụmụntakịrị na ndị agadi isi awọ.
26 I haue said, I would scatter them abroade: I would make their remembrance to cease from among men,
Ekwuru m na m ga-achụsasị ha, hichapụ ncheta ọbụla banyere ha nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ.
27 Saue that I feared the furie of the enemie, least their aduersaries should waxe proude, and least they should say, Our hie hande and not the Lord hath done all this:
Ma ihe banyere ịnya isi onye iro tinyere m ụjọ nʼobi, ka onye iro ghara ịghọtahie kwuo sị, ‘Aka anyị ewetarala anyị mmeri, ọ bụghị Onyenwe anyị mere ihe ndị a niile.’”
28 For they are a nation voide of counsel, neither is there any vnderstanding in them.
Ha bụ mba na-enweghị uche, ndị na-enweghị mmụọ nghọta ọbụla nʼime ha.
29 Oh that they were wise, then they would vnderstand this: they would consider their latter ende.
A sịkwarị na ha maara ihe, nwee uche nakwa ịghọta ihe ikpeazụ ha ga-abụ.
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousande to flight, except their strong God had sold the, and the Lord had shut them vp?
Kedụ ka otu onye ga-esi chụọ otu puku mmadụ ọsọ, kedụ ka mmadụ abụọ ga-esi chụọ iri puku mmadụ ọsọ, ma ọ bụghị na Oke Nkume ha erefuola ha, ma ọ bụghị na Onyenwe anyị echepụla ihu ya nʼebe ha nọ?
31 For their god is not as our God, euen our enemies being iudges.
Nʼihi na nkume ha adịghị ka Nkume anyị, dịka ndị iro anyị, nʼonwe ha, jiri ọnụ ha kwuo.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the vines of Gomorah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters be bitter.
Osisi vaịnị ha si nʼosisi vaịnị Sọdọm, na nʼubi dị na Gọmọra mkpụrụ vaịnị ha jupụtara na nsi, ụyọkọ vaịnị ha jupụtara nʼilu ilu.
33 Their wine is the poyson of dragons, and the cruel gall of aspes.
Mmanya vaịnị ha bụ elo agwọ, elo ajụala na-ebute ọnwụ.
34 Is not this laide in store with me, and sealed vp among my treasures?
“Nke a ọ bụghị ihe m dokọtarala chere oge, chezie ha nke ọma nʼụlọakụ m?
35 Vengeance and recompence are mine: their foote shall slide in due time: for the day of their destruction is at hand, and the things that shall come vpon them, make haste.
Ọ bụ m ka ịbọ ọbọ dịrị m, aga m akwụghachi. Mgbe oge ruru ụkwụ ha ga-agbuchapụ, ụbọchị mbibi ha na-abịa nso, ịla nʼiyi ha chị ọsọ na-abịakwasị ha.”
36 For the Lord shall iudge his people, and repent towarde his seruants, when hee seeth that their power is gone, and none shut vp in holde nor left abroad.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ekpe ndị ya ikpe, ọ ga-enwe ọmịiko nʼahụ ndị ohu ya, mgbe ọ hụrụ na ike ha nwere agwụla, mgbe otu onye na-agaghị afọdụ, ohu na onye nwe onwe ya.
37 When men shall say, Where are their gods, their mighty God in whome they trusted,
Ọ ga-asịkwa, “Ugbu a, olee ebe chi niile ha nọ, bụ oke nkume ahụ ha gbabara izere ndụ nʼime ya,
38 Which did eate the fat of their sacrifices, and did drinke the wine of their drinke offring? let them rise vp, and help you: let him be your refuge.
chi ndị ahụ riri abụba ihe ịchụ aja ha, ṅụọkwa mmanya ha ji chụọ aja ihe ọṅụṅụ? Ha bilie bịa nyere unu aka! Ha bụrụ ụlọ ndo nye unu!”
39 Behold now, for I, I am he, and there is no gods with me: I kill, and giue life: I wound, and I make whole: neither is there any that can deliuer out of mine hand.
“Ugbu a, hụnụ na mụ onwe m abụ m ya! Ọ dịghịkwa chi ọzọ dị ma ọ bụghị m. Mụ onwe m na-eme ka a nwụọ, mụ onwe m na-eme ka a dị ndụ. Mụ onwe m na-etipụ mmadụ ọnya, mụ onwe m na-agwọ ya, mmadụ ọbụla apụghịkwa ịnapụta onye m ji nʼaka m.
40 For I lift vp mine hand to heauen, and say, I liue for euer.
Ana m eweli aka nʼeluigwe na-ekwupụta nʼịnụ iyi sị, dịka m na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi,
41 If I whet my glittering sworde, and mine hand take holde on iudgement, I will execute vengeance on mine enemies, and will rewarde them that hate me.
mgbe m mụrụ mma agha m na-egbu amụma, mgbe aka m jidere mma agha ahụ nʼọnọdụ ikpe ikpe, aga m abọ ọbọ megide ndị iro, kwụghachi ndị ahụ niile kpọrọ m asị.
42 I will make mine arrowes drunke with blood, (and my sword shall eate flesh) for the blood of the slaine, and of the captiues, when I beginne to take vengeance of the enemie.
Aga m eme ka àkụ m ṅụjuo ọbara afọ, ma mma agha ga-ebibi anụ ahụ, ọbara ndị e gburu egbu, na nke ndị a dọtara nʼagha, na isi ndị ndu ndị iro.”
43 Ye nations, praise his people: for he will auenge the blood of his seruants, and will execute vengeance vpon his aduersaries, and will bee mercifull vnto his lande, and to his people.
Ṅụrịanụ ọṅụ mba niile, unu na ndị ya, nʼihi na ọ ga-abọ ọbọ ọbara ndị ohu ya, ọ ga-abọ ọbọ megide ndị iro ya, kpuchiere ala ya na ndị ya mmehie ha.
44 Then Moses came and spake all ye words of this song in the audience of the people, he and Hoshea the sonne of Nun.
Mosis na Joshua nwa Nun soro bịa gụpụta mkpụrụ okwu abụ a na ntị ndị Izrel.
45 When Moses had made an end of speaking all these wordes to all Israel,
Mgbe Mosis gụpụtachara abụ a nye ndị Izrel,
46 Then hee said vnto them, Set your heartes vnto all the wordes which I testifie against you this day, that ye may commande them vnto your children, that they may obserue and doo all the wordes of this Lawe.
ọ gwara ha okwu ndị a sị, “Na-atụgharịnụ uche nʼokwu niile m kwupụtara nye unu taa, ka unu si otu a nyefeekwa ya nʼaka ụmụ unu, ka ha onwe ha lezie anya debe okwu niile dị nʼiwu ndị a.
47 For it is no vaine worde concerning you, but it is your life, and by this worde ye shall prolong your dayes in the land, whither yee go ouer Iorden to possesse it.
Nʼihi na okwu ndị a abụghị okwu efu, ndụ unu dabeere na ha. Unu debe ha, unu ga-adị ndụ ogologo nʼime ala ahụ unu na-aga inweta nʼofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan.”
48 And the Lord spake vnto Moses the selfe same day, saying,
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
49 Goe vp into the mountaine of Abarim, vnto the mount Nebo, which is in the lande of Moab, that is ouer against Iericho: and beholde the lande of Canaan, which I giue vnto the children of Israel for a possession,
“Bilie ga nʼugwu Nebo nke dị nʼetiti ugwu Abarim, nʼala Moab, na ncherita ihu Jeriko, leekwa ala Kenan anya, bụ ala ahụ m na-enye ụmụ Izrel dịka ihe nketa ha.
50 And die in the mount which thou goest vp vnto, and thou shalt be gathered vnto thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered vnto his people,
Mgbe ị hụsịrị ala a, ị ga-anwụ nʼebe ahụ nʼelu ugwu ahụ, lakwurukwa nna nna gị ha, dịka Erọn nwanne gị si nwụọ nʼugwu Hor, lakwuru ha.
51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel, at the waters of Meribah, at Kadesh in the wildernesse of Zin: for ye sanctified me not among the children of Israel.
Nʼihi na gị na Erọn jụrụ irubere m isi nʼihu ụmụ Izrel, na mmiri Meriba Kadesh, nke dị nʼọzara Zin, unu edoghị m nsọ nʼihu ndị Izrel.
52 Thou shalt therefore see the lande before thee, but shalt not go thither, I meane, into the land which I giue the children of Israel.
Nʼihi ya, ị ga-esite nʼebe dị anya hụ ala ahụ m na-enye ụmụ Izrel, ma ị gaghị aba nʼime ya.”
