Deuteronomy 7
1 When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possesse it, and shall roote out many nations before thee: the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, seuen nations greater and mightier then thou,
Mukama Katonda wo bw’akutuusanga mu nsi mw’ojja okuyingira, ogyetwalire okuba obutaka bwo, nga n’amawanga mangi amaze okugagobamu, n’amawanga gano omusanvu agakusinga obunene n’amaanyi: Abakiiti, n’Abagirugaasi, n’Abamoli, n’Abakanani, n’Abaperezi, n’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi,
2 And the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, then thou shalt smite them: thou shalt vtterly destroy them: thou shalt make no couenant with them, nor haue compassion on them,
Mukama Katonda wo ng’amaze okugagabula mu mukono gwo, ng’obawangudde, kikugwanira obazikiririze ddala. Tokolanga nabo ndagaano, so tobakwatirwanga kisa.
3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them, neither giue thy daughter vnto his sonne, nor take his daughter vnto thy sonne.
Tofumbiriganwanga nabo. Towangayo muwala wo kufumbirwanga mutabani we, oba mutabani we okuwasanga muwala wo.
4 For they wil cause thy sonne to turne away from me, and to serue other gods: then will the wrath of the Lord waxe hote against you and destroy thee suddenly.
Kubanga bagenda kukyamya mutabani wo alekerengaawo okugoberera Mukama, baweerezenga bakatonda abalala; era obusungu bwa Mukama bunaababuubuukirangako n’akuzikiriza mangu.
5 But thus ye shall deale with them, Ye shall ouerthrowe their altars, and breake downe their pillars, and ye shall cut downe their groues, and burne their grauen images with fire.
Naye bwe muti bwe munaakolanga: Munaamenyanga ebyoto bya bakatonda baabwe, ne mwasaayasa amayinja gaabwe ge bawonga, ne mubetentabetenta empagi zaabwe eza Asera, ne mwokya bakatonda baabwe mu muliro.
6 For thou art an holy people vnto the Lord thy God, the Lord thy God hath chosen thee, to be a precious people vnto himselfe, aboue all people that are vpon the earth.
Kubanga oli ggwanga ttukuvu eri Mukama. Mukama Katonda wo yakulonda okuva mu mawanga gonna agali ku nsi okubeeranga eggwanga lye, lye yeefunira ly’asuuta ennyo.
7 The Lord did not set his loue vpon you, nor chose you, because ye were more in number then any people: for ye were the fewest of all people:
Mukama okugenda okubalonda n’okubaagala ennyo bw’atyo; si lwa kubanga mwe mwali musinga amawanga amalala gonna obungi; nedda, mwe mwali musinga obutono mu mawanga gonna.
8 But because the Lord loued you, and because hee would keepe the othe which hee had sworne vnto your fathers, the Lord hath brought you out by a mightie hand, and deliuered you out of the house of bondage from the hand of Pharaoh King of Egypt,
Naye lwa kubanga Mukama Katonda yabaagala, n’akuuma endagaano gye yakola ne bajjajjammwe, n’abanunula n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi ng’abaggya mu nsi ey’obuddu, n’abawonya obuyinza bwa Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri.
9 That thou mayest knowe, that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithfull God which keepeth couenant and mercie vnto them that loue him and keepe his commandements, euen to a thousand generations,
Noolwekyo osaananga okukitegeeranga nga Mukama Katonda wo ye Katonda; Katonda omwesigwa akuuma endagaano ye ey’okwagala okutaggwaawo eri abamwagala era abagondera ebiragiro bye okutuuka ku mirembe olukumi.
10 And rewardeth them to their face that hate him, to bring them to destruction: he wil not deferre to reward him that hateth him, to his face.
Naye abo abamukyawa alibeesasuza n’okuzikirizibwa; tagenda kulwawo kwesasuza oyo amukyawa.
11 Keepe thou therefore the commandements, and the ordinances, and the lawes, which I commaund thee this day to doe them.
Noolwekyo weegenderezenga nnyo ogonderenga amateeka n’ebiragiro bye nkugamba olunaku lwa leero.
12 For if ye hearken vnto these lawes, and obserue and doe them, then the Lord thy God shall keepe with thee the couenant, and the mercie which he sware vnto thy fathers.
Bwe munaakwatanga amateeka ago, ne mugagonderanga n’obwegendereza, ne Mukama Katonda wo agenda kukuumanga endagaano ye, gye yakola ne bajjajjaabo ey’okwagala kwe okutaggwaawo.
13 And he wil loue thee, and blesse thee, and multiplie thee: he will also blesse the fruite of thy wombe, and the fruite of thy land, thy corne and thy wine, and thine oyle and the increase of thy kine, and the flockes of thy sheepe in the land, which he sware vnto thy fathers to giue thee.
Agenda kukwagalanga, akuwenga omukisa; era alikwaza ne weeyongera obungi. Aliwa omukisa ezzadde lyo n’ebibala eby’oku ttaka lyo, n’emmere yo ey’empeke, ne wayini wo, n’amafuta go, n’ennyana ez’ente zo, n’abaana ab’endiga zo, ng’oli mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjaabo, okugikuwa.
14 Thou shalt be blessed aboue all people: there shall be neither male nor female barren among you, nor among your cattell.
Onoofunanga omukisa okusinga amawanga amalala gonna; tewaabengawo musajja oba mukazi mugumba mu mmwe, wadde ente zammwe ezitaazaalenga.
15 Moreouer, the Lord will take away from thee all infirmities, and will put none of the euill diseases of Egypt (which thou knowest) vpon thee, but wil send them vpon all that hate thee.
Mukama takkirizenga ndwadde yonna kukukwata. So taakuleeterenga ndwadde ezo ez’akabi, ze wamanyanga, ez’e Misiri, naye anaazireeteranga abo bonna abakukyawa.
16 Thou shalt therefore consume all people which the Lord thy God shall giue thee: thine eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serue their gods, for that shalbe thy destruction.
Onoozikirizanga abo bonna Mukama Katonda b’anaakuwanguzanga, tobatunuulizanga liiso lya kisa, tobabbiranga ku liiso. So toweerezanga bakatonda baabwe, kubanga ogwo gugendanga kukufuukira mutego.
17 If thou say in thine heart, These nations are moe then I, how can I cast them out?
Oyinza okwebuuza mu mutima gwo nti, “Amawanga ag’amaanyi gatyo okutusinga, tulisobola tutya okugagoba mu nsi zaago?”
18 Thou shalt not feare them, but remember what the Lord thy God did vnto Pharaoh, and vnto all Egypt:
Naye amawanga ago togatyanga; ojjukiranga Mukama Katonda wo kye yakola Falaawo ne Misiri yonna.
19 The great tentations which thine eyes sawe, and the signes and wonders, and the mighty hand and stretched out arme, whereby the Lord thy God brought thee out: so shall the Lord thy God do vnto all ye people, whose face thou fearest.
Weerabirako n’amaaso go gennyini ebibonoobono, n’obubonero obw’ebyamagero, n’eby’ekyewuunyo, Mukama bye yakozesa okukuggya mu nsi y’e Misiri n’omukono gwe omuwanvu ogw’amaanyi. Mukama Katonda wo bw’atyo bw’anaakolanga amawanga ago gonna g’otya.
20 Moreouer, the Lord thy God will send hornets among them vntil they that are left, and hide themselues from thee, be destroyed.
Ate Mukama Katonda wo anaaweerezanga ennumba mu balabe bo ne zibaluma, okutuusa n’abo abanaabanga basigaddewo mu lutalo, nga beekwese, lwe ziribazikiririza ddala.
21 Thou shalt not feare them: for the Lord thy God is among you, a God mightie and dreadful.
Tobatyanga, kubanga Mukama Katonda wo abeera wakati mu mmwe, mukulu era wa ntiisa.
22 And the Lord thy God wil roote out these nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, least the beasts of the fielde increase vpon thee.
Mukama Katonda wo amawanga ago anaagendanga agaggyawo linnalimu, mpola mpola. Toligazikiriza gonna mulundi gumu, si kulwa ng’ensolo ez’omu nsiko zaala ne zikuyitirira obungi.
23 But the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, and shall destroy them with a mightie destruction, vntill they be brought to naught.
Naye Mukama Katonda wo anaagagabulanga mu mukono gwo n’ageeraliikirizanga ng’agatabuddetabudde, okutuusa lwe ganaazikirizibwanga.
24 And he shall deliuer their Kings into thine hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from vnder heauen: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, vntill thou hast destroyed them.
Anaagabulanga bakabaka baago mu mukono gwo n’osangulira ddala amannya gaabwe okuva wansi w’eggulu. Tewaabengawo muntu n’omu anaayimiriranga mu maaso go okukwaŋŋanga, ojjanga kubazikiriza.
25 The grauen images of their gods shall ye burne with fire, and couet not the siluer and golde, that is on them, nor take it vnto thee, least thou be snared therewith: for it is an abomination before the Lord thy God.
Ebifaananyi ebyole ebya bakatonda baabwe munaabyokyanga mu muliro. Teweegombanga zaabu na ffeeza anaabibeerangako. So tomwetwaliranga alemenga kukufuukira mutego; kubanga ekikolwa ekyo kya muzizo eri Mukama Katonda wo.
26 Bring not therefore abomination into thine house, lest, thou be accursed like it, but vtterly abhorre it, and count it most abominable: for it is accursed.
Toyingizanga mu nnyumba yo kintu kyonna ekyomuzizo, olemenga kuba mukolimire ng’ekintu ekyo bwe kiri. Onookikyayiranga ddala era onookitamirwanga ddala, kubanga kyakolimirwa.
