Deuteronomy 10
1 At that time the LORD said unto me: 'Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto Me into the mount; and make thee an ark of wood.
“Yehowa gblɔ nam ɣe ma ɣi be makpa kpe eve bubu abe gbãtɔwo ene, matsɔ ati akpa aɖaka aɖe si me woatsɔ kpe eveawo adzra ɖo la, eye matrɔ ava ye, Mawu gbɔ le toa dzi.
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt put them in the ark.'
Egblɔ nam be yeagbugbɔ se siwo tututu yeŋlɔ ɖe kpe siwo megbã dzi la aŋlɔ ɖe kpe yeyeawo dzi, eye matsɔ wo ade Aɖaka la me.
3 So I made an ark of acacia-wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in my hand.
Ale metsɔ akasiati wɔ Aɖaka la. Mekpa kpe eve abe gbãtɔwo ene hetsɔ wo yi na Yehowa le to la dzi.
4 And He wrote on the tables according to the first writing, the ten words, which the LORD spoke unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly; and the LORD gave them unto me.
Egaŋlɔ Se Ewoawo ɖe wo dzi tsɔ nam. Wonye se siwo tututu wònam tso dzo bibi la ƒe titina le toa dzi le mi katã ŋkume le to la te.
5 And I turned and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they are, as the LORD commanded me. —
Meɖi eye metsɔ kpe eveawo de Aɖaka si mekpa la me. Wole afi ma va se ɖe egbe abe ale si Yehowa ɖo nam ene.
6 And the children of Israel journeyed from Beeroth-benejaakan to Moserah; there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead.
“Le esia megbe la, Israelviwo zɔ mɔ tso Bene Yaakan yi Mosera afi si Aron ku, eye woɖii ɖo. Aron ƒe viŋutsu Eleaza zu nunɔla ɖe eteƒe.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgod; and from Gudgod to Jotbah, a land of brooks of water. —
“Wozɔ mɔ yi Gudgoda heyi Yotbata, afi si tsi bɔ ɖo.
8 At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto Him, and to bless in His name, unto this day.
Afi mae Yehowa ɖe Levi ƒe viwo ɖe aga le be woakɔ nubablaɖaka si me Yehowa ƒe Se Ewoawo le, eye woanɔ tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋkume awɔ Yehowa ƒe dɔ, ade bubu eƒe ŋkɔ ŋu abe ale si wowɔna egbe ene.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance, according as the LORD thy God spoke unto him. —
Eya ta womena anyigba Levitɔwo le Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi abe ale si wona wo nɔvi to bubu me tɔwo ene o, elabena Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu gblɔ na wo be ye ŋutɔe nye woƒe domenyinu.
10 Now I stayed in the mount, as at the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the LORD hearkened unto me that time also; the LORD would not destroy thee.
Abe ale si megblɔ do ŋgɔe ene la, menɔ to la dzi le Yehowa ŋkume zi evelia ŋkeke blaene kple zã blaene, abe ale si mewɔ zi gbãtɔ ene. Yehowa ɖo to nye kokoƒoƒo, eye metsrɔ̃ mi o.
11 And the LORD said unto me: 'Arise, go before the people, causing them to set forward, that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.'
“Ke egblɔ nam be, ‘Tso, nàkplɔ ameawo yi anyigba si ŋugbe medo na wo fofowo la dzi. Ɣeyiɣi la de be woayi aɖaxɔe!’”
12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul;
“Azɔ, Israel, nu ka Yehowa, wò Mawu la di tso asiwò wu be nàvɔ̃ Yehowa, wò Mawu la, nàzɔ le eƒe mɔwo katã dzi, nàlɔ̃e, eye nàsubɔe kple wò dzi blibo kple wò luʋɔ blibo,
13 to keep for thy good the commandments of the LORD, and His statutes, which I command thee this day?
eye nàwɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe sewo kple ɖoɖo siwo katã mena mi egbe la dzi ale be wòanyo na wò?
14 Behold, unto the LORD thy God belongeth the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that therein is.
Kpɔ ɖa, anyigba kple dziƒo ƒe kɔkɔƒe kekeake nye Yehowa, wò Mawu la tɔ.
15 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you, above all peoples, as it is this day.
Ke mia fofowo ƒe nu nyo eŋu, eye wòlɔ̃ wo ale gbegbe be wòtia mi, wo viwo, be miaƒo dukɔwo katã ta abe ale si wòle dzedzem egbe ene,
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
eya ta mikɔ miaƒe nu vɔ̃ dziwo ŋu, eye miadzudzɔ kɔlialiatɔwo ƒe agbenɔnɔ.
17 For the LORD your God, He is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awful, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward.
“Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu lae nye mawuwo dzi Mawu gã, ŋusẽtɔ la, Mawu si ŋu ŋɔdzi le, ame si medea ame aɖeke dzi o, eye mexɔa zãnu hã o.
18 He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
Ewɔa nu dzɔdzɔe na tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo. Elɔ̃a amedzrowo, eye wònaa nuɖuɖu kple nutata wo.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Ele be miawo hã mialɔ̃ amedzrowo, elabena miawo hã mienye amedzrowo le Egiptenyigba dzi kpɔ.
20 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; Him shalt thou serve; and to Him shalt thou cleave, and by His name shalt thou swear.
Ele be miavɔ̃ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, miasubɔe anukwaretɔe, mialé ɖe eŋu, eye miaka atam ɖe eya ɖeɖe ko ƒe ŋkɔ dzi.
21 He is thy glory, and He is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and tremendous things, which thine eyes have seen.
Eyae nye wò kafukafu, eye wòganye wò Mawu, ame si wɔ nukunu gã siwo teƒe miawo ŋutɔ miekpɔ.
22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
Mia fofowo dometɔ ame blaadre koe yi Egipte, gake azɔ la, Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la wɔ mi miedzi sɔ gbɔ abe ɣletiviwo le dziŋgɔli me ene!”
