Deuteronomy 26
1 It shall be, when you have come in to the land which YHWH your God gives you for an inheritance, and possess it, and dwell in it,
Mgbe ị ga-aba nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị dịka ihe nketa, mgbe ị nwetara ya, birikwa nʼime ya,
2 that you shall take of the first of all the fruit of the ground, which you shall bring in from your land that YHWH your God gives you; and you shall put it in a basket, and shall go to the place which YHWH your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
ị ga-ewere ụfọdụ nʼime mkpụrụ niile si nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị, tinye ya nʼime nkata, were ya gaa nʼebe ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-ahọpụta, dịka ebe a kpọkwasịrị aha ya.
3 You shall come to the priest who shall be in those days, and tell him, "I profess this day to YHWH my God, that I have come into the land which YHWH swore to our fathers to give us."
Ị ga-agwakwa onye nchụaja nọ nʼọrụ nʼoge ahụ okwu sị: “Ana m ekwupụta taa nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na abịala m nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ṅụụrụ nna nna anyị ha nʼiyi inye anyị.”
4 The priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of YHWH your God.
Onye nchụaja ahụ ga-anara nkata ahụ, dọba ya nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
5 You shall answer and say before YHWH your God, "A wandering Aramean was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number, and there he became a nation, great, mighty, and numerous.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-ekwupụta nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị sị, “Nna nna m bụ onye Aram na-awagharị awagharị, onye jere Ijipt izere ndụ. Ha dị ole na ole mgbe ha gara Ijipt, ma nʼIjipt ha ghọrọ mba dị ukwuu, ndị dị ike, na ndị bara ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ.
6 The Egyptians mistreated us, and afflicted us, and laid on us hard bondage:
Ma ndị Ijipt mejọrọ anyị, mee ka anyị taa ahụhụ nʼihi ọrụ dị ike nke ha bokwasịrị anyị.
7 and we cried to YHWH, the God of our fathers, and YHWH heard our voice, and saw our affliction, and our toil, and our oppression;
Mgbe ahụ, anyị tikuru Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna anyị. Onyenwe anyị nụrụ olu anyị, hụkwa mmegbu a na-emegbu anyị, na ndọgbu anyị na-adọgbu onwe anyị nʼọrụ, na ọnọdụ ọjọọ anyị.
8 and YHWH brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror, and with signs, and with wonders;
Onyenwe anyị ji aka dị ike na ogwe aka o setịrị eseti, nʼọtụtụ ihe oke egwu na ọrụ ịrịbama, na ihe ebube, si nʼIjipt kpọpụta anyị.
9 and he has brought us into this place, and has given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Ọ kpọbatara anyị nʼebe a, nye anyị ala a, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya.
10 Now, look, I have brought the first of the fruit of the ground, which you, YHWH, have given me." You shall set it down before YHWH your God, and worship before YHWH your God.
Ya mere, ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị, lee, ewebatala m mkpụrụ mbụ sitere nʼala i nyere m.” Dọba nkata ahụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, kpọọkwa isiala nye ya nʼebe ahụ.
11 And you shall rejoice in all the good which YHWH your God has given to you and to your house, you, and the Levite, and the foreigner who is among you.
Mgbe ahụ, gị na ndị Livayị, na ndị mbịarambịa bi nʼetiti unu, ga-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihe ọma niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nyere gị na ezinaụlọ gị.
12 When you have made an end of tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled.
Nʼafọ nke atọ ọbụla, ị ga-enye onyinye pụrụ iche, onyinye otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri, nke ihe ubi gị. Nʼafọ ahụ, ị ga-enye ndị Livayị, na ndị ọbịa, na ụmụ mgbei, na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ, onyinye otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri gị, ka ha rie ya nʼobodo gị dị iche iche, ka afọ jukwa ha.
13 You shall say before YHWH your God, "I have put away the holy things out of my house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the foreigner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all your commandment which you have commanded me: I have not transgressed any of your commandments, neither have I forgotten them:
Ị ga-ekwupụta nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị sị, “Esitela m nʼụlọ wepụ oke ahụ dị nsọ, nye ha ndị Livayị, na ndị ọbịa, na ụmụ mgbei, na ndị inyom di ha nwụrụ, dịka i nyere m nʼiwu, enupughị m isi maọbụ chefuo iwu gị ọbụla.
14 I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I put away of it, being unclean, nor given of it for the dead: I have listened to the voice of YHWH my God; I have done according to all that you have commanded me.
Erighị m ihe ọbụla si nʼime ya mgbe m na-eru ụjụ maọbụ wepụ ihe ọbụla nʼime ya nʼọnọdụ adịghị ọcha m, ọ dịkwaghị nke m ji chụọrọ ndị nwụrụ anwụ aja. Egeela m ntị nʼolu Onyenwe anyị Chineke m, meekwa ihe niile i nyere m nʼiwu.
15 Look down from your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless your people Israel, and the ground which you have given us, as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey."
Site nʼebe obibi nsọ gị dị nʼeluigwe ledata anya gị, gọzie ndị gị Izrel na ala a i nyere anyị, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya, dịka i kwere nna nna anyị ha na nkwa.”
16 This day YHWH your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances: you shall therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.
Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị iwu taa si gị gbaso ụkpụrụ ndị a na iwu ndị a. Lezie anya hụ na i ji obi gị niile na mkpụrụobi gị niile debe ha.
17 You have declared YHWH this day to be your God, and that you would walk in his ways, and keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and listen to his voice:
I kwupụtala taa na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị, i kweekwala nkwa na ị ga-ege ya ntị, debe iwu ya niile, na ụkpụrụ ya niile, na ị ga-emekwa ihe niile ọ sị gị mee.
18 and YHWH has declared you this day to be a people for his own possession, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments;
Taa kwa, Onyenwe anyị ekwupụtala na unu bụ ndị nke aka ya, dịka o kwere na nkwa, na ị ga-edebekwa ihe niile o nyere nʼiwu.
19 and to make you high above all nations that he has made, for fame, and for praise, and for honor; and that you may be a holy people to YHWH your God, as he has spoken.
O kwuru na ọ ga-emekwa ka i karịa mba niile o kere elu, nʼotuto, nʼaha, nsọpụrụ na ịja mma. Na unu ga-abụkwa mba dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, dịka o kwere na nkwa.
