Deuteronomy 11
1 Therefore shalt thou love Yahweh thy God and keep his observance and his statutes and his regulations and his commandments all the days.
Yagalanga Mukama Katonda wo, ogonderenga ebigambo bye by’akukuutira, n’ebiragiro bye, n’amateeka ge ennaku zonna.
2 And ye must know to-day, (for not with your sons [do I speak] who know not, neither have they seen) the discipline of Yahweh your God, —his greatness, his firm hand, and his stretched-out arm;
Mutegeere nga ku lunaku lwa leero soogera na baana bammwe abataamanya era abataalaba ku kukangavvula kwa Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’ekitiibwa kye n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi, era ogw’obukuumi;
3 and his signs and his doings, which he did in the midst of Egypt, —unto Pharaoh king of Egypt and unto all his land;
era abataalaba ku byamagero bye yakola n’ebintu byonna bye yakolera wakati mu Misiri, ku Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri n’eri ensi ye yonna;
4 and what he did unto the forces of Egypt—unto his horses and unto his chariots in that he caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow over their faces, when they were pursuing after you, —and so Yahweh destroyed them (unto this day);
ne bye yakola eggye lya Misiri n’embalaasi zaalyo n’amagaali gaalyo; era nga amaggye ago bwe yagazikiririza mu mazzi ag’omu Nnyanja Emyufu bwe gaali nga gabagoberera, n’agamalirawo ddala n’okutuusa leero.
5 and what he did unto you, in the desert, —until ye came in as far as this place;
Abaana bammwe si be baalaba ebyo byonna Mukama bye yabakolera okuva nga muli mu ddungu n’okutuuka wano mu kifo kino,
6 and what he did to Dathan and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, son of Reuben, in that the earth opened wide her mouth, and swallowed-up them and their households and their tents, —and all the living things that attended them, in the midst of all Israel.
era ne kye yakola Dasani ne Abiraamu batabani ba Eriyaabu, mutabani wa Lewubeeni, ettaka bwe lyayasamya akamwa kaalyo, wakati mu baana ba Isirayiri bonna, ne libamira n’ab’omu maka gaabwe bonna, n’eweema ez’ensiisira zaabwe zonna, ne buli kiramu kyabwe kyonna kye baalinako obwannannyini.
7 For yours, are the eyes that have seen every great deed of Yahweh, —which he hath done.
Naye mmwe bennyini mwe mwabiraba n’amaaso gammwe, ebintu ebyo ebikulu Mukama by’azze akola.
8 Therefore shall ye keep all the commandment which I am commanding thee, today, —that ye may be strong, and so enter and possess the land, whither ye are passing over to possess it;
Noolwekyo mukwatenga amateeka gonna ge mbalagira leero, mulyoke mubeere n’amaanyi okuyingira mu nsi gye mujja okwefunira, nga mumaze okusomoka omugga Yoludaani,
9 and that ye may prolong your days upon the soil which Yahweh sware unto your fathers, to give unto them and unto their seed, —a land flowing with milk and honey.
bwe mutyo mulyoke muwangaalenga nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjammwe okugibawa awamu ne bazzukulu baabwe, ng’eyo ye nsi omukulukutira amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.
10 For the land which thou art entering to, possess, not like the land of Egypt, it is, from whence ye came out, —where thou didst sow thy seed, and then water it with thy foot, like a garden of herbs;
Kubanga ensi gy’ogenda okuyingira, ogyefunire, tefaanaana ng’ensi y’e Misiri, gye mwava, gye wasimbanga ensigo zo n’ozifukiriranga n’ebbomba gye wasambyanga ekigere, ng’afukirira ennimiro y’enva.
11 but the land whereinto ye are passing over to, possess it, is a land of hills, and valleys, —which of the rain of the heavens, doth drink water:
Naye ensi gye mugenda okwefunira nga musomose omugga Yoludaani, ye nsi ey’ensozi n’ebiwonvu, enywa amazzi g’enkuba agava mu ggulu.
12 a land which Yahweh thy God careth for, —continually are the eyes of Yahweh thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year, even unto the end of the year.
Ye nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’alabirira. Amaaso ga Mukama Katonda wo gabeera ku nsi eyo bulijjo, okuva ku ntandikwa y’omwaka okutuuka ku nkomerero yaagwo.
13 And it shall come to pass, if ye will hearken, unto my commandments, which, I am commanding you to-day, —to love Yahweh your God, and to serve him, with, all your heart, and with all your soul,
Bwe munaagonderanga amateeka gano ge mbalagira leero: okwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okumuweerezanga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna, n’emmeeme yammwe yonna,
14 then [saith he] I will give the rain of your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain; so shalt thou gather in thy corn, and thy new wine and thine oil;
kale, anaatonnyesanga enkuba mu nsi yammwe mu biseera byayo: enkuba eya ddumbi n’eya ttoggo, olyoke okungulenga emmere yo ey’empeke, weefunire ne wayini omusu n’amafuta.
15 and I will give grass in thy field for thy cattle, —and thou shalt eat and be satisfied.
Era anaakuzanga omuddo mu malundiro go ente zo gwe zinaalyanga; naawe onoolyanga emmere n’okkuta.
16 Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be befooled, —and ye turn aside and serve other gods, and bow down to them.
Mwegenderezenga nnyo, mulemenga okukyama ne mubula, ne muweerezanga bakatonda abalala era ne mubavuunamiranga.
17 So would the anger of Yahweh kindle upon you and he would shut up the heavens, that there should be no rain, and the ground, would not yield her increase, —so should ye perish speedily, from off the good land, which Yahweh is giving unto you.
Kale obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirangako, n’aggalangawo eggulu, enkuba ne tetonnyanga, n’ettaka ne litabalangako bibala, ne muzikiriranga ne muggwaawo mangu ku nsi ennungi Mukama gy’abawa.
18 Therefore shall ye lay these my words upon your heart, and upon your soul, —and bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall serve as bands between your eyes;
Kale muterekenga ebigambo byange bino mu mutima gwammwe ne mu mmeeme yammwe; munaabisibanga ku mikono gyammwe ng’akabonero ak’okubibajjukizanga, era mubitekanga ne ku byenyi byammwe.
19 and ye shall teach them unto your children by speaking of them, —when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down and when thou risest up;
Mubiyigirizenga abaana bammwe, ng’obinyumyako bw’onoobanga otudde mu nnyumba yo, ne bw’onoobanga otambula mu nguudo; ne bw’onoogalamirangako, era ne bw’onoositukanga.
20 and thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thy house and within thy gates:
Era onoobiwandiikanga ku myango ne ku nzigi,
21 that your days may multiply, and the days of your children, upon the soil which Yahweh sware unto your fathers, to give unto them, —like the days of the heavens upon the earth.
mmwe n’abaana bammwe mulyoke muwangaalenga nnyo, mumale ennaku nnyingi nga ebbanga eggulu lye lirimala nga liri waggulu w’ensi, nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yasuubiza bajjajjammwe okugibawa.
22 For if ye do, indeed keep, all this commandment which I am commanding you to do it, —to love Yahweh your God, to Walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him,
Bwe muneegenderezanga, ne mugonderanga ebiragiro bino byonna bye mbawa okubikolanga: kwe kwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, n’okumunywererangako;
23 then will Yahweh dispossess all these nations, from before you, —and ye shall dispossess nations greater and stronger than ye:
kale, Mukama anaagobangamu amawanga ago gonna aganaabanga mu maaso gammwe, ne mwefunira ensi z’amawanga ago agabasinga mmwe obunene era n’amaanyi.
24 every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread yours, shall it be, —from the desert and the Lebanon from the river—the river Euphrates, even unto the hinder sea, shall be your boundary.
Buli we munaalinnyanga ekigere kyammwe, ekifo ekyo kinaabeeranga kyammwe; okuva ku ddungu okutuuka ku Lebanooni, n’okuva ku Mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nnyanja ey’ebugwanjuba.
25 No man shall stand before you, —the dread of you and the fear of you, will Yahweh your God put forth over the face of all the land whereon ye shall tread, as he spake unto you.
Tewaabengawo muntu n’omu anaasobolanga okubaziyiza. Mukama Katonda wammwe aliteeka entiisa n’ekikangabwa mu bannansi bonna, buli we munaagendanga, nga bwe yabasuubiza.
26 See! I am setting before you to-day, —a blessing, and a curse:
Mulabe, ku lunaku lwa leero nteeka mu maaso gammwe omukisa n’ekikolimo.
27 the blessing, when ye shall hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh your God, which I am commanding you to-day;
Omukisa, bwe munaagonderanga amateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe ge mbalagira leero;
28 and the curse if ye, shall not hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh your God, but shall turn aside out of the way which I am commanding you to-day, —to go after other gods which ye know not.
ekikolimo, bwe mutaagonderenga mateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, ne mukyamanga okuva mu kkubo lye mbalagira leero, ne mugobereranga bakatonda abalala be mwali mutamanyi.
29 And it shall come to pass when Yahweh thy God shall bring thee into the land which thou art entering to possess, then shalt thou put the blessing, upon Mount Gerizim, and the curse, upon Mount Ebal.
Mukama Katonda wo bw’alikutuusa mu nsi gy’ogenda okuyingiramu ogyetwalire ng’obutaka bwo obw’enkalakkalira, omukisa oguteekanga ku lusozi Gerizimu, n’ekikolimo ku lusozi Ebali.
30 Are, they, not over the Jordan on the way towards the entering in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite who dwelleth in the plain over against Gilgal beside the Teacher’s Terebinths?
Ensozi ezo ziri mitala wa Yoludaani ku ludda olw’ebugwanjuba obw’oluguudo ng’oyolekedde enjuba gy’egwa, okumpi n’emiti eminene egy’e Mole, mu nsi y’Abakanani ababeera mu Alaba ku miriraano gya Girugaali.
31 For ye are passing over the Jordan, to enter to possess the land which Yahweh your God, is giving unto you, —so shall ye possess it and dwell therein.
Muli kumpi okusomoka omugga Yoludaani mwefunire ensi Mukama Katonda wammwe gy’abawa. Bwe mulimala okugyetwalira, nga mwe mubeera,
32 Therefore shall ye observe to do all the statutes and the regulations, —which I am setting before you to-day.
mwegenderezenga nnyo mugonderenga amateeka gonna, n’ebiragiro bye nteeka mu maaso gammwe leero.
