< Deuteronomy 31 >
1 And Moses went, and spake these words unto all Israel;
Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde tí ó sì sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí gbogbo Israẹli pé,
2 and said unto them—A hundred and twenty years old, am I to-day, I can no more go out and come in, —Yahweh indeed hath said unto me, Thou shall not pass over this Jordan.
“Mo jẹ́ ọmọ ọgọ́fà ọdún báyìí àti pé èmi kò ni lè darí i yín mọ́. Olúwa ti sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ìwọ kò ní kọjá Jordani.’
3 Yahweh thy God, is passing over before thee, he, will destroy these nations from before thee so shalt thou dispossess them, —Joshua is passing over before thee, as Yahweh hath spoken.
Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fúnra rẹ̀ ni yóò rékọjá fún ọ. Yóò pa àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yìí run níwájú rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì mú ìní ilẹ̀ wọn, Joṣua náà yóò rékọjá fún ọ, bí Olúwa ti sọ.
4 So will Yahweh do unto them as he did unto Sihon and unto Og, kings of the Amorites, and unto the land of them whom he destroyed.
Olúwa yóò sì ṣe fún wọn ohun tí ó ti ṣe sí Sihoni àti sí Ogu ọba Amori, tí ó parun pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ ẹ wọn.
5 So will Yahweh deliver them up before you, —and ye shall do unto them—according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.
Olúwa yóò fi wọ́n fún ọ, kí o sì ṣe sí wọn gbogbo èyí tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún ọ.
6 Be firm and bold, do not fear nor tremble because of them, —for Yahweh thy God, it is who is going with thee, he will not fail thee nor forsake thee.
Jẹ́ alágbára kí o sì ní ìgboyà. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù tàbí jáyà nítorí i wọn, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ń lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ, Òun kò ní fi ọ́ sílẹ̀ tàbí kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀.”
7 And Moses called for Joshua, and said unto him, in the sight of all Israel. Be firm and bold, for, thou, shalt go with this people into the land which Yahweh sware unto their fathers to give unto them, and, thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
Nígbà náà ni Mose pe Joṣua ó sì wí fún un níwájú gbogbo Israẹli pé, “Jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà, nítorí o ní láti lọ pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí sí ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa búra fún àwọn baba ńlá a wọn láti fún wọn, kí o sì pín ilẹ̀ náà láàrín wọn bí ogún wọn.
8 But, Yahweh, it is who is going before thee, he will be with thee, he will not fail thee nor forsake thee, —thou must not fear nor be dismayed.
Olúwa fúnra rẹ̀ ń lọ níwájú rẹ yóò sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ; kò ní fi ọ́ sílẹ̀ tàbí kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù má sì ṣe fòyà.”
9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, —and unto all the elders of Israel.
Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ òfin yìí kalẹ̀ ó sì fi fún àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ọmọ Lefi, tí ń gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, àti fún gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà ní Israẹli.
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, —At the end of seven years in the appointed season of the year of release, during the festival of booths;
Nígbà náà ni Mose pàṣẹ fún wọn, “Ní òpin ọdún méje méje, ní àkókò ọdún ìdásílẹ̀, nígbà àjọ àwọn àgọ́.
11 when all Israel cometh in to see the face of Yahweh thy God, in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel, in their hearing.
Nígbà tí gbogbo Israẹli bá wá láti fi ara hàn níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ní ibi tí yóò yàn, ìwọ yóò ka òfin yìí níwájú wọn sí etí ìgbọ́ wọn.
12 Call together the people—the men and the women and the little ones, and thy sojourner who is within thy gates, —that they may hear, and that they may learn, so shall they revere Yahweh your God, and observe to do all the words of this law;
Pe àwọn ènìyàn jọ àwọn ọkùnrin, àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn àjèjì tí ń gbé àwọn ìlú u yín kí wọn lè fetí sí i kí wọn sì lè kọ́ láti bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ kí wọn sì rọra tẹ̀lé gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ òfin yìí.
13 and that their children who know not, may hear and learn, that they may revere Yahweh your God, —all the days that ye are living upon the soil, which ye are passing over the Jordan to possess.
Àwọn ọmọ wọn tí wọn kò mọ òfin yìí, gbọdọ̀ gbọ́ kí wọn sì kọ́ láti bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ níwọ̀n ìgbà tí o tí ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ tí ò ń kọjá la Jordani lọ láti ni.”
14 Then said Yahweh unto Moses: Lo! thy days have drawn near that thou must die. Call Joshua and station yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may command him. So Moses went, with Joshua, and they took their station in the tent of meeting.
Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Ọjọ́ ikú rẹ ti súnmọ́ etílé báyìí. Pe Joṣua kí ẹ sì fi ara yín hàn nínú àgọ́ àjọ, níbi tí èmi yóò ti fi àṣẹ fún un.” Nígbà náà ni Mose àti Joṣua wá, wọ́n sì fi ara wọn hàn níbi àgọ́ àjọ.
15 And Yahweh appeared in the tent, in a pillar of cloud, —and the pillar of cloud stood, at the entrance of the tent.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa farahàn níbi àgọ́ ní ọ̀wọ́ àwọsánmọ̀, àwọsánmọ̀ náà sì dúró sókè ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́.
16 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Lo! thou art about to sleep with thy fathers, —and this people will rise up, and go away unchastely after the gods of the foreigners of the land into the midst of whom they are entering, and will forsake me and break my covenant which I solemnised with them.
Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Ìwọ ń lọ sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba à rẹ, àwọn wọ̀nyí yóò sì ṣe àgbèrè ara wọn sí ọlọ́run àjèjì ilẹ̀ tí wọn ń wọ̀ lọ láìpẹ́. Wọn yóò kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀ wọn yóò sì da májẹ̀mú tí mo bá wọn dá.
17 Then will mine anger kindle upon them in that day, and I will forsake them and will hide my face from them and they shall be consumed, and many calamities and misfortunes shall find them out, —and they will say, in that day, Is it not because my God is not in my midst, that these calamities have found me out?
Ní ọjọ́ náà ni èmi yóò bínú sí wọn èmi yóò sì kọ̀ wọ́n sílẹ̀; èmi yóò pa ojú mi mọ́ kúrò fún wọn, wọn yóò sì parun. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àjálù àti ìṣòro yóò wá sórí wọn, àti ní ọjọ́ náà ni wọn yóò béèrè pé, ‘Ǹjẹ́ ìpọ́njú wọ̀nyí kò wá sórí i wa nítorí Ọlọ́run wa kò sí pẹ̀lú u wa?’
18 But, I, will utterly, hide, my face, in that day, because of all the wickedness which they have done, in that they have turned away unto other gods.
Èmi yóò sì pa ojú mi mọ́ dájúdájú ní ọjọ́ náà nítorí i gbogbo ìwà búburú wọn ní yíyípadà sí ọlọ́run mìíràn.
19 Now, therefore write ye for you this Song, and teach it unto the sons of Israel put it in their mouths, —that this Song may become for me a witness against the sons of Israel.
“Ní báyìí kọ ọ́ kalẹ̀ fúnra à rẹ orin yìí kí o sì kọ ọ́ sí Israẹli kí o sì jẹ́ kí wọn kọ ọ́ kí ó lè jẹ́ ẹ̀rí ì mi sí wọn.
20 When I bring them upon the soil which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall eat and be filled and wax fat, then will they turn away unto other gods and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
Nígbà tí mo ti mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ tí ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin, ilẹ̀ tí mo ti ṣe ìlérí ní ìbúra fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn, àti nígbà tí wọ́n bá jẹ, tí ó sì tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn, tí wọ́n sì gbilẹ̀, wọn yóò yí padà sí ọlọ́run mìíràn wọn yóò sì sìn wọ́n, wọn yóò kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, wọn yóò sì da májẹ̀mú mi.
21 And it shall come to pass, when many calamities and misfortunes shall find them out, then shall this Song respond to their face, as a witness, for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouth of their seed, for I know their imagination, which they are forming to-day, ere yet I bring them into the land of which I sware unto their fathers.
Àti nígbà tí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìpọ́njú àti ìṣòro bá wá sórí i wọn, orin yìí yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀rí sí wọn, nítorí kò ní di ìgbàgbé fún àwọn ọmọ wọn. Mo mọ̀ ohun tí wọ́n ní inú dídùn sí láti ṣe, pàápàá kí èmi tó mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ tí mo ṣe ìlérí fún wọn lórí ìbúra.”
22 Moses therefore wrote this Song on that day, —and taught it unto the sons of Israel.
Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ orin yìí kalẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ náà ó sì kọ ọ́ sí Israẹli.
23 And he commanded Joshua, son of Nun, and said—Be firm and bold, for, thou shalt bring the sons of Israel into the land which I have sworn to them, —and, I, will be with thee.
Olúwa sì fún Joṣua ọmọ Nuni ní àṣẹ yìí: “Jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà, nítorí ìwọ yóò mú Israẹli wá sí ilẹ̀ tí mo ṣèlérí fún wọn lórí ìbúra, èmi fúnra à mi yóò sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”
24 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law, upon a scroll, —until he had finished them,
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Mose ti parí i kíkọ ọ̀rọ̀ òfin yìí sínú ìwé láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ dé òpin,
25 then Moses commanded the Levites, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, saying:
ó sì fi àṣẹ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí wọ́n ń gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa:
26 Take this scroll of the law, and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, —so shall it be there in thy midst as a witness.
“Gba ìwé òfin yìí kí o sì fi sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ. Níbẹ̀ ni yóò wà bí ẹ̀rí sí ọ.
27 For, I, know thy perverseness, and thy stiff neck, —lo! while I am yet alive with you to-day, ye are, quarrelling, with Yahweh, and how much more after my death?
Nítorí mo mọ irú ọlọ̀tẹ̀ àti ọlọ́rùn líle tí ẹ jẹ́. Bí o bá ṣe ọlọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa nígbà tí mo pàpà wà láyé pẹ̀lú yín, báwo ní ẹ ó ti ṣe ọlọ̀tẹ̀ tó nígbà tí mo bá kú tán!
28 Call together unto me all the elders of your tribes and your officers, —and let me speak in their hearing these words, and let me take to witness against them the heavens and the earth.
Ẹ péjọpọ̀ síwájú mi gbogbo àgbà ẹ̀yà yín àti àwọn aláṣẹ yín, kí èmi lè sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ́ wọn.
29 For I know that after my death, ye will break faith, and turn aside out of the way which I have commanded you, —and calamity will befall you in the afterpart of the days, because ye will do the thing that is wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, to provoke him with the work of your own hands.
Nítorí tí mo mọ̀ pé lẹ́yìn ikú mi, ó dájú pé ìwọ yóò padà di ìbàjẹ́ pátápátá, ẹ ó sì yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀nà tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún un yín. Ní ọjọ́ tó ń bọ̀, ìpọ́njú yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ sórí i yín nítorí ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa ẹ ó sì mú u bínú nípa ohun tí ọwọ́ yín ti ṣe.”
30 So Moses spake in the hearing of all the convocation of Israel the words of this Song, until they were ended: —
Mose sì ka ọ̀rọ̀ inú orin yìí láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ títí dé òpin sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ gbogbo ìjọ Israẹli:
