Deuteronomy 29
1 These [are] the words of the covenant which YHWH has commanded Moses to make with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, apart from the covenant which He made with them in Horeb.
Bino bye bigambo by’endagaano Mukama Katonda gye yalagira Musa okukola n’abaana ba Isirayiri nga bali mu nsi ya Mowaabu, ng’egattibwa ku ndagaano gye yali akoze nabo ku Kolebu.
2 And Moses calls to all Israel and says to them, “You have seen all that which YHWH has done before your eyes in the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land—
Awo Musa n’ayita Abayisirayiri bonna n’abagamba nti, Mwalaba n’amaaso gammwe ebyo byonna Mukama Katonda bye yakolera mu nsi y’e Misiri ku Falaawo ne ku bakungu be, ne ku nsi ye yonna.
3 the great trials which your eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders.
Walaba n’amaaso go ebigezo ebinene, n’obubonero obw’ebyamagero, n’ebyewuunyisa ebikulu.
4 And YHWH has not given to you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
Naye n’okutuusa ku lunaku lwa leero Mukama tabawanga mutima ogutegeera, oba amaaso agalaba, oba amatu agawulira.
5 And I cause you to go in a wilderness [for] forty years; your garments have not been consumed from off you, and your shoe has not worn away from off your foot;
Bwe nabakulembera okumala emyaka amakumi ana mu ddungu engoye zammwe tezaakaddiwako, n’engatto y’omu kigere kyo teyakaddiwa.
6 you have not eaten bread, and you have not drunk wine and strong drink, so that you know that I [am] your God YHWH.
Temwalya ku mugaati wadde okunywa ku nvinnyo, oba ku kyokunywa ekirala kyonna ekitamiiza. Ekyo nakikola mulyoke mumanye nga nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.
7 And you come to this place, and Sihon king of Heshbon—also Og king of Bashan—comes out to meet us to battle, and we strike them,
Bwe mwatuuka mu kifo kino, Sikoni kabaka w’e Kesuboni, ne Ogi kabaka w’e Basani, ne basituka okutulwanyisa, naye ne tubawangula.
8 and take their land, and give it for an inheritance to the Reubenite, and to the Gadite, and to the half of the tribe of the Manassite;
Twatwala ensi yaabwe, ne tugigabira Abalewubeeni, n’Abagaadi, n’ekitundu ky’ekika eky’Abamanase, okuba obutaka bwabwe obw’ensikirano.
9 and you have kept the words of this covenant and done them, so that you cause all that you do to prosper.
Noolwekyo mukwatenga ebigambo by’endagaano eno n’obwegendereza, mulyoke muwangulenga mu buli kimu kye munaakolanga.
10 You are standing today, all of you, before your God YHWH: your heads, your tribes, your elderly, and your authorities, every man of Israel,
Mukuŋŋaanye wano leero mwenna mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, nga muli n’abakulembeze b’ebika byammwe, n’abakulu bammwe abakulembeze, n’abafuzi bammwe, n’abasajja bonna aba Isirayiri,
11 your infants, your wives, and your sojourner who [is] in the midst of your camps, from the hewer of your wood to the drawer of your water,
n’abaana bammwe abato, ne bakazi bammwe, ne munnaggwanga asula awamu naawe mu lusiisira lwo, okukutyabira enku, n’okukukimira amazzi.
12 for your passing over into the covenant of your God YHWH, and into His oath which your God YHWH is making with you today,
Oli wano okukola endagaano ne Mukama Katonda wo, ng’ekirayiro gy’ali, Mukama Katonda wo gy’akola naawe leero;
13 in order to establish you to Himself for a people today, and He Himself is your God, as He has spoken to you, and as He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
alyoke akukakase ng’akunyweza leero okubeeranga eggwanga lye, naye nga ye Katonda wo, nga bwe yakusuubiza, era nga bwe yalayirira bakadde bo: Ibulayimu ne Isaaka.
14 And I am not making this covenant and this oath with you alone,
Endagaano eno gye nkola, ng’eriko n’ekirayiro kyayo,
15 but with him who is here with us, standing before our God YHWH today, and with him who is not here with us today,
sigikola nammwe abayimiridde wano naffe leero mwekka, wabula ngikola wamu n’oyo atali wano naffe leero.
16 for you have known how you dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we passed by through the midst of the nations which you have passed by;
Mujjukira bulungi nga bwe twali mu nsi y’e Misiri, ne bwe twajjanga tuyita wakati mu mawanga okutuukira ddala wano.
17 and you see their abominations, and their idols of wood and stone, silver and gold, which [are] with them,
Mwalabanga ebintu eby’ekikaafiiri, nga mwe mwalinga ebifaananyi ebibajje mu miti n’ebiwoole mu mayinja ne mu ffeeza ne mu zaabu.
18 lest there be among you a man or woman, or family or tribe, whose heart is turning from our God YHWH today, to go to serve the gods of those nations, lest there be in you a root bearing the fruit of gall and wormwood;
Mukakasize ddala leero nga mu maka gammwe oba mu bika byammwe temulinaamu musajja oba mukazi n’omu akyamizza omutima gwe okuva ku Mukama Katonda waffe agende asinze bakatonda bali abalala abamawanga ago. Mukakasize ddala nga mu mmwe temuliimu kikolo okuyinza okukula obutwa obw’engeri eyo obukaawa ng’omususa.
19 and it has been, in his hearing the words of this oath, that he has blessed himself in his heart, saying, I have peace, though I go on in the stubbornness of my heart—in order to sweep away the watered with the thirsty.
Omuntu ow’engeri ng’eyo ng’awulidde ebigambo eby’ekikolimo kino n’amala yeeyibaala, ne yeetukuza ku bubwe yekka, n’alowooza munda ye nti, “Nzija kubeera bulungi newaakubadde nga mmaliridde okukwata ekkubo eryange ery’obujeemu,” ekyo kinaaletanga akacwano ku ttaka erinnyogovu obulungi ne ku kkalu.
20 YHWH is not willing to be propitious to him, for then the anger of YHWH smokes, also His zeal, against that man, and all the oath which is written in this scroll has lain down on him, and YHWH has blotted out his name from under the heavens,
Mukama taamusonyiwenga, kubanga obusungu bwa Mukama n’ekiruyi kye binaabuubuukiranga ku muntu oyo. Ebikolimo byonna ebiwandiikiddwa mu Kitabo kino binaamukkangako, era Mukama alisangula erinnya lye n’aliggya wansi w’eggulu.
21 and YHWH has separated him for calamity out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the oaths of the covenant which is written in this Scroll of the Law.
Mukama anaamwawulanga n’amuggya mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri n’amubonereza nnyo, nga bwe kiri mu bikolimo byonna eby’endagaano ebiwandiikiddwa mu Kitabo ky’Amateeka kino.
22 And the latter generation of your sons who rise after you, and the stranger who comes in from a far-off land, have said, when they have seen the strokes of that land and its sicknesses which YHWH has sent into it:
Abaana bammwe abaliddawo ne bannamawanga abaliva mu nsi ezeewala baliraba ekibonerezo ekiriba kigudde ku nsi n’obulwadde Mukama bw’aliba aleese ku ttaka ly’ensi.
23 The whole land is burned [with] brimstone and salt, it is not sown, nor does it shoot up, nor does any herb go up on it there, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim, which YHWH overturned in His anger and in His fury.
Ettaka liriba lyonoonese nga lya munnyo n’amayinja agookya, nga tekuyinza kusimbibwako kintu wadde okubaako n’ekimerako, nga n’omuddo tegusobola kumerako. Ensi erifaanana ng’okuzikirizibwa kwa Sodomu, ne Ggomola, ne Aduma, ne Zeboyimu, Mukama bye yazikiriza mu busungu bwe obungi.
24 Indeed, all the nations have said, Why has YHWH done thus to this land? Why the heat of this great anger?
Amawanga galyebuuza nga geewunya nti, “Lwaki Mukama akoze ekintu kino, n’akikola n’obusungu obungi butyo?”
25 And they have said, Because that they have forsaken the covenant of YHWH, God of their fathers, which He made with them in His bringing them out of the land of Egypt,
Na kino kye kiriba eky’okuddamu nti, “Kubanga abantu bano basudde eri endagaano ya Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe, endagaano gye yakola nabo bwe yabaggya mu nsi y’e Misiri.
26 and they go and serve other gods, and bow themselves to them—gods which they have not known, and which He has not apportioned to them;
Baagenda ne basinza bakatonda abalala, ne babaweereza, bakatonda be baali batamanyi, era Katonda waabwe be yali tabawadde.
27 and the anger of YHWH burns against that land, to bring in on it all the reviling that is written in this scroll,
Bwe butyo obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubuubuukira ku nsi eyo, n’agireetako ebikolimo byonna ebiwandiikiddwa mu Kitabo kino.
28 and YHWH plucks them from off their ground in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath, and casts them into another land, as [at] this day.
Mukama n’abasiguukulula mu nsi yaabwe ng’aliko ekiruyi, era ng’ajjudde obusungu bungi, n’abakasuka mu nsi endala, nga bwe kiri leero.”
29 The things hidden [belong] to our God YHWH, and the things revealed [belong] to us and to our sons for all time, to do all the words of this law.”
Ebintu eby’ekyama bya Mukama Katonda waffe, naye ebyo ebyabikkulibwa bye byaffe n’abaana baffe emirembe gyonna, tulyoke tugonderenga ebigambo byonna ebiri mu mateeka gano.
