< Deuteronomy 27 >

1 And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people saying, —Observe all the commandment which I am commanding you to-day.
Mosis na ndị okenye Izrel nyere ndị Izrel iwu sị, “Debenụ iwu ndị a niile m na-enye unu taa.
2 So then it shall be in the day when ye shall pass over the Jordan, into the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee, —that thou shalt rear thee up great stones, and plaster them with plaster;
Mgbe ị gabigara osimiri Jọdan ruo nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị, bukọtaanụ nkume buru ibu nʼotu ebe, jirikwa ụrọ ọcha techie ha.
3 and shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou shalt pass over, —to the end that thou mayest enter upon the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee a land flowing with milk and honey, as Yahweh the God of thy fathers hath spoken unto thee.
Depụta nʼelu nkume ndị ahụ iwu na ụkpụrụ ndị a mgbe ị batara nʼala ahụ mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru nʼime ya, nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna nna gị kwere nkwa inye gị.
4 So then it shall be when ye shall pass over the Jordan, that ye shall rear up these stones which I am commanding you to-day in Mount Ebal, —and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
Mgbe ị nọkwa nʼofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan, doo nkume ukwu ndị a nʼugwu Ebal, dịka m na-enye gị nʼiwu taa. Jirikwa ụrọ ọcha techie ha.
5 And thou shalt build there an altar unto Yahweh thy God, —an altar of stones, thou shalt not wield thereupon any tool of iron.
Wuokwara Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ebe ịchụ aja ya nʼebe ahụ. Ebe ịchụ aja eji naanị nkume wuo, nke ejighị ihe ngwa ọrụ igwe rụọ ihe bụla na ya.
6 Of whole stones, shalt thou build the altar of Yahweh thy God, —then shalt thou cause to go up thereon ascending-sacrifices, unto Yahweh thy God;
Jiri nkume a na-awaghị awa wuore Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ebe ịchụ aja ahụ, chụọkwa aja nʼelu ya nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
7 and thou shalt sacrifice peace-offerings and shalt eat there, —and rejoice before Yahweh thy God.
Chụọ aja udo nʼebe ahụ, rie ha, ma ṅụrịakwa ọṅụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
8 And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law doing it plainly and well.
Depụta iwu ndị a nke ọma, nʼelu nkume ndị ahụ i guzobere.”
9 And Moses and the priests the Levites spake unto all Israel saying, —Keep silence and hear O Israel, This day, hast thou been made a people unto Yahweh thy God.
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis na ndị nchụaja, bụ ndị Livayị, gwakwara ndị Izrel niile okwu sị, “Nọọnụ jii, gị Izrel, gekwaa ntị! Taa, ị ghọọla ndị nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
10 Thou shalt therefore hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, —and do his commandments and his statutes, which I am commanding thee to-day.
Nʼihi ya debe iwu niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na ụkpụrụ niile ndị m nyere gị taa.”
11 And Moses commanded the people on that day, saying:
Nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ ka Mosis nyere ha iwu sị,
12 These, shall stand to bless the people upon Mount Gerizim, when ye have passed over the Jordan, —Simeon and Levi and Judah, and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin;
Mgbe unu gafere Jọdan, ebo ndị a: Simiọn, na Livayị na Juda na Isaka na Josef na Benjamin, ga-eguzo nʼelu ugwu Gerizim gọzie ụmụ Izrel
13 and, these, shall stand by the curse in Mount Ebal, —Reuben Gad and Asher, and Zebulun Dan and Naphtali.
Agbụrụ Ruben, Gad, Asha, Zebụlọn, Dan na Naftalị ga-eguzo nʼelu ugwu Ebal kwupụta ọbụbụ ọnụ.
