Deuteronomy 8
1 Ye shall keepe all the commandements which I command thee this day, for to doe them: that ye may liue, and be multiplied, and goe in, and possesse the land which the Lord sware vnto your fathers.
Lezie anya hụ na i debezuru iwu ndị a niile m nyere gị taa. Ọ bụrụ na i debe ha, ọ bụghị naanị na ị ga-adị ndụ, kama ị ga-amụba, banyekwa inweta ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị kwere nna nna gị ha na nkwa.
2 And thou shalt remember all ye way which the Lord thy God led thee this fourtie yeere in the wildernesse, for to humble thee and to proue thee, to knowe what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keepe his commandements or no.
Chetakwa otu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị si duo gị nʼime ọzara iri afọ anọ ndị a niile. O wedara mmụọ gị ala, nwakwaa gị ọnwụnwa ịmata ihe dị gị nʼobi, ịchọpụta ma ị ga-edebekwa iwu ya.
3 Therefore he humbled thee, and made thee hungry, and fed thee with MAN, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know it, that he might teache thee that man liueth not by bread onely, but by euery worde that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord, doth a man liue.
E, o wedatara mmụọ gị ala mgbe o mere ka ihe oriri kọ gị, mgbe o mere ka i rie mánà, nri ahụ gị na nna gị na-amaghị ihe ọ bụ. O mere nke a igosi gị na izi gị na ọ bụghị naanị achịcha ka mmadụ ga-eji dị ndụ, kama ọ bụ nʼokwu niile nke si nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị pụta.
4 Thy raiment waxed not olde vpon thee, neither did thy foote swell those fourtie yeeres.
Iri afọ anọ ndị a niile, uwe gị akaghị nka, ụkwụ gị azakwaghị aza.
5 Knowe therefore in thine heart, that as a man nourtereth his sonne, so the Lord thy God nourtereth thee.
Nʼihi ya, mata nke a nʼobi gị, na dịka nna si adọ nwa ya aka na ntị, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị si adọ gị aka na ntị.
6 Therefore shalt thou keepe the commandements of the Lord thy God, that thou mayest walke in his wayes, and feare him.
Debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị. Na-ejegharị ije nʼụzọ ya, ma na-atụkwa ya egwu.
7 For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land in the which are riuers of water and fountaines, and depthes that spring out of valleis and mountaines:
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-ewebata gị nʼala mara mma, bụ ala nwere iyi, na ọdọ mmiri, ala nwere mmiri nke si nʼime ya na-asọpụta asọgharị nʼugwu na ndagwurugwu,
8 A land of wheate and barley, and of vineyards, and figtrees, and pomegranates: a land of oyle oliue and hony:
ọ bụ ala na-epu ọka wiiti na ọka balị, na osisi vaịnị, na osisi fiig, na osisi pomegranet, na mmanụ oliv, na mmanụ aṅụ.
9 A land wherein thou shalt eate bread without scarcitie, neither shalt thou lacke any thing therein: a land whose stones are yron, and out of whose mountaines thou shalt digge brasse.
Ọ bụkwa ala jupụtara nʼihe oriri, ebe a na-agaghị enwe ụkọ nri. Ọ bụ ala ebe igwe jupụtara nʼime ya dị ka ha bụ nkume, ala ebe ọla jupụtakwara nʼugwu ya niile.
10 And when thou hast eaten and filled thy selfe, thou shalt blesse the Lord thy God for the good land, which he hath giuen thee.
Mgbe i riri rijuo afọ, too Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nʼihi ala mara mma nke o nyere gị.
11 Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, not keeping his commandements, and his lawes, and his ordinances, which I commaund thee this day:
Ma lezie anya ka ị ghara ichefu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, na-edebeghị iwu ya niile, na ikpe ya niile, na ụkpụrụ ya niile, nke m na-enye gị taa.
12 Lest when thou hast eaten and filled thy selfe, and hast built goodly houses and dwelt therein,
Ka ọ ghara ị bụ, mgbe i riri rijuru afọ, mgbe i wuuru onwe gị ezi ụlọ dị mma birikwa nʼime ha,
13 And thy beastes, and thy sheepe are increased, and thy siluer and golde is multiplied, and all that thou hast is increased,
mgbe igwe ehi na igwe atụrụ gị mụbara, mgbe ọlaọcha na ọlaedo gị mụbara, na mgbe ihe niile i nwere mụbara.
14 Then thine heart be lifted vp and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage,
Kpachara anya hụ na nganga abanyeghị gị nʼobi, ime ka i chefuo Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị onye mere ka ị site nʼIjipt, sitekwa nʼala ịbụ ohu pụta.
15 Who was thy guide in the great and terrible wildernes (wherein were fierie serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where was no water, who brought forth water for thee out of ye rock of flint:
Onye duuru gị nʼime ọzara ukwu ahụ dị egwu, ebe agwọ ọjọọ na akpị jupụtara, ebe na-ekpo ọkụ, nke mmiri na-adịghị. O sitere na nkume nye gị mmiri ọṅụṅụ
16 Who fed thee in the wildernesse with MAN, which thy fathers knewe not) to humble thee, and and to proue thee, that he might doe thee good at thy latter ende.
O ji mánà nyejuo gị afọ nʼọzara, mánà ahụ nna gị ha na-amaghị ihe ọ bụ na mbụ. O mere ya nʼihi iweda mmụọ gị ala, na ịnwale gị, ka ihe si otu a gaara gị nke ọma.
17 Beware least thou say in thine heart, My power, and the strength of mine owne hand hath prepared me this abundance.
I nwere ike kwuo sị, “Ọ bụ site nʼike aka m ka m ji baa ụba.”
18 But remember the Lord thy God: for it is he which giueth thee power to get substance to establish his couenant which he sware vnto thy fathers, as appeareth this day.
Ma cheta Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, nʼihi na ọ bụ ya onwe ya na-enye gị ike i ji akpata akụ, ime ka ọgbụgba ndụ ya guzosie ike, bụ nke ọ ṅụrụ nna nna gị ha nʼiyi, dịka ọ dị taa.
19 And if thou forget the Lord thy God, and walke after other gods, and serue them, and worship them, I testifie vnto you this day that ye shall surely perish.
Ma ọ bụrụ na i chefuo Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị, gbasoo chi ndị ọzọ, fee ha ofufe ma kpọọkwa isiala nye ha, ana m agba ama megide gị taa na ị ghaghị ịla nʼiyi.
20 As the nations which the Lord destroyeth before you, so ye shall perish, because ye woulde not be obedient vnto the voyce of the Lord your God.
Ọ bụrụ na unu egeghị ntị nʼolu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, ime ihe ọ chọrọ, ọ ga-ala unu nʼiyi, dịka o si bibie mba ndị a niile dị iche iche ọ na-ebibi nʼihi unu.
