< 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.
Nʼoge ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara m, sị, “Wapụta mbadamba nkume abụọ dịka nke mbụ, were ha bịakwute m nʼelu ugwu. Ọzọ, wuokwara onwe gị igbe osisi.
2 And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark.
Aga m edekwasị nʼelu mbadamba nkume ndị a, okwu niile nke dị nʼelu mbadamba nkume ndị mbụ, bụ nke ị tụpịasịrị. Ị ga-etinyekwa ha nʼime igbe ahụ.”
3 And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
Ya mere, eji m osisi akashia kwaa igbe ahụ. A wapụtakwara m mbadamba nkume abụọ yiri ndị nke mbụ, were ha rigoro ugwu ahụ.
4 And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the Lord spake 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.
Onyenwe anyị dere nʼelu mbadamba nkume ahụ ihe ndị ahụ o dere na mbụ, bụ iwu iri ndị ahụ o gwara unu nʼelu ugwu site nʼime ọkụ, nʼụbọchị mkpọkọta ahụ. Onyenwe anyị nyekwara m ha.
5 And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the Lord commanded me.
Mgbe m si nʼugwu ahụ rịdata, etinyere m mbadamba nkume abụọ ahụ nʼime igbe ahụ m kwara, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere m nʼiwu. Ha dịkwa nʼebe ahụ ruo taa.
6 And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth of the children of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest’s office in his stead.
(Ụmụ Izrel gara ije site nʼolulu mmiri nke Bene Jaakan garuo Mosera, nʼebe ahụ ka Erọn nọ nwụọ, e lie ya nʼebe ahụ. Elieza, bụ ọkpara ya nọchiri ọnọdụ ya dịka onye nchụaja.
7 From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbath, a land of rivers of waters.
Site nʼebe ahụ, ha gagidere ije ruo Gudgoda, sitekwa na ya ruo Jotbata, ala nke iyi na-asọ asọ juru nʼime ya.
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.
Nʼoge ahụ, Onyenwe anyị kewapụtara ebo Livayị ibu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, na iguzo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ijere ya ozi na ikwupụta ngọzị nʼaha ya, dịka ha sị eme ruo taa.
9 Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, according as the Lord thy God promised him.
Ọ bụ nke a mere ndị Livayị enweghị oke maọbụ ihe nketa nʼetiti ndị Izrel ibe ha; Onyenwe anyị bụ ihe nketa ha, dịka Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu gwara ha.)
10 And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the Lord hearkened unto me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy thee.
Ugbu a, anọọla m nʼelu ugwu ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị, dịka m mere nʼoge mbụ, Onyenwe anyị gekwara m ntị nʼoge ugbu a. Ọ bụghị ọchịchọ Onyenwe anyị ibibi unu.
11 And the Lord said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
Onyenwe anyị gwara m, “Bilie, gaa ka i duru ndị a gaa na njem ha, ka ha banye, ma nwetakwa ala ahụ nke m kwere nna nna ha na nkwa inye ha.”
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,
Ugbu a, Izrel, gịnị ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-ana nʼaka gị ma ọ bụghị ka ị tụọ egwu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị, jee ije na nrube isi nye ya, ịhụ ya nʼanya, na iwere obi gị niile na mmụọ gị niile fee ya ofufe,
13 To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
na ilezi anya debezuo iwu na ụkpụrụ Onyenwe anyị, ndị m na-enye gị taa, nʼihi ọdịmma gị.
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord’s thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
Ụwa na eluigwe na ebe niile kachasị elu nke eluigwe, na ihe niile dị nʼime ha, bụ nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
15 Only the Lord had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
Ma Onyenwe anyị nwere mmasị nʼahụ nna nna unu ha, hụkwa ha nʼanya, ọ họrọ unu, na naanị ụmụ ha niile, site nʼetiti mba niile dịka ọ dị taa.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
Nʼihi nke a, biekwanụ obi unu ugwu, kwụsịkwanụ ibi ndụ nke isiike.
17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke unu bụ Chineke kachasị chi niile, bụrụkwa Onyenwe kachasị ndị nwenụ niile. Chineke ukwu ahụ, onye dị ike dịkwa egwu, onye na-adịghị ele mmadụ anya nʼihu, ọ nakwaghị eri ngarị.
18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
Ọ na-alụrụ ndị na-enweghị nna, na ụmụ nwanyị na-enweghị di ọgụ. Ọ na-ahụ ndị ọbịa nʼanya, na-enyekwa ha nri na uwe.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Ya mere, unu onwe unu kwa, hụnụ ndị ọbịa nʼanya, nʼihi na unu onwe unu bụrụrị ndị ọbịa nʼala Ijipt.
20 Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.
Tụọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị egwu, feekwa ya ofufe. Ya ka ị ga-arapara nʼahụ, ọ bụkwa naanị nʼaha ya ka ị ga-aṅụ iyi.
21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
Ọ bụ ya bụ onye ị ga-eto otuto, ọ bụ ya bụ Chineke gị, onye rụrụ gị ọrụ ndị ahụ dị oke egwu na ebube, nke gị onwe gị ji anya gị hụ.
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.
Nna nna unu ndị gara nʼIjipt dị naanị iri mmadụ asaa, ma ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị emeela ka ịmụbaa dịka kpakpando nke mbara igwe.
