< Deuteronomy 6 >

1 This, then is the commandment—[namely] the statutes and the regulations, which Yahweh your God hath commanded to teach you, —that ye may do them in the land whither ye are passing over to possess it:
“Pa inge ma sap nukewa LEUM GOD Iowos El sapkin nu sik in luti kowos kac. Akos ma sap inge fin facl se su kowos akola in utyak ac muta we.
2 that thou mayest revere Yahweh thy God, [so as] to keep all his statutes and his commandments which I am commanding thee, thou and thy son and thy sons’ son, all the days of thy life, —and that thy days may be prolonged.
Ke lusenna moul lowos, kowos ac fwilin tulik nutuwos an in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, ac akos ma sap nukewa lal ma nga sot nu suwos, tuh kowos in ku in muta paht fin facl sac.
3 Therefore shalt thou hear, O Israel, and shalt observe to do, that it may be well with thee, and that ye may multiply greatly, as Yahweh the God of thy fathers hath spoken to thee, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
Mwet Israel, kowos in lohng ma sap inge, ac akos! Na ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos, ac kowos fah ekla sie mutunfacl na ku, ac kowos fah muta in sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, in oana ke LEUM GOD lun papa tumasr El tuh wulela kac.
4 Hear, O Israel: Yahweh, is our God, —Yahweh alone.
“Lohng, O Israel! LEUM GOD, God lasr, El God sefanna.
5 Thou shalt therefore love Yahweh thy God, —with all thy heart and with all thy soul, and with all thy might;
Kom fah lungse LEUM GOD lom ke insiom kewa, ke ngunum kewa, ac ke ku lom kewa.
6 so shall these words which I am commanding thee to-day, be upon thy heart;
Nimet mulkunla ma sap inge su nga sot nu sum misenge.
7 and thou shalt impress them upon thy sons, and shalt speak 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;
Luti kas inge nu sin tulik nutum. Alken in luti pacl kom oasr in lohm sum, pacl kom fufahsryesr, pacl kom mongla, ac pacl kom orekma.
8 and thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand, —and they shall serve for bands between thine eyes;
Kapriya kas inge ke poum ac ke motonsrum, tuh in mwe akesmakinye kom.
9 and thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house and within thy gates.
Simusla kas inge ke kosrusru in mutunoa ke lohm sum, ac ke nien utyak lun kalkal lom.
10 So shall it be, when Yahweh thy God shall bring thee into the land, which he sware to thy fathers—to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob to give unto thee, —into cities great and goodly, which thou didst not build;
“Oana ke LEUM GOD lowos el wuleang nu sin papa matu tomowos — Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob — El ac fah sot nu suwos sie facl ma siti we uh yohk ac sessesla ke mwe kasrup, su kowos tia musaiak.
11 and houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and hewn cisterns which thou hewedst not, vineyards and oliveyards which thou plantedst not, —and shalt eat and be full,
Lohm we ac fah sessesla ke ma wo, su tia ma kowos likiya loac. Ac fah oasr lufin kof su tia ma kowos pukanak. Ac fah oasr ima in grape ac olive ma kowos tia yukwiya. Na ke pacl se LEUM GOD El ac pwenkowosla nu in facl sac, ac kowos mongo ac kihp,
12 take heed unto thyself, lest thou forget Yahweh, —who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt out of the house of servants.
taranna kowos in tia mulkunla LEUM GOD su pwenkowosme liki facl Egypt, yen kowos tuh mwet kohs we.
13 Yahweh thy God, shalt thou revere And him, shalt thou serve, —And by his name, shalt thou swear.
Akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, ac alu nu sel mukena, ac oru wulela lowos ke Inel mukena.
14 Ye shall not go after other gods, —of the gods of the peoples who are surrounding you;
Nimet alu nu sin kutena god saya, god lun mwet su raunikowosla.
15 for a jealous GOD, is Yahweh thy God in thy midst, —lest the anger of Yahweh thy God kindle upon thee, and so he destroy thee from off the face of the ground.
Kowos fin alu nu sin god ngia, kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD fah tayak lain kowos oana e uh, na ac fah arulana kunauskowosla, mweyen LEUM GOD lowos su muta inmasrlowos El tia lungse in oasr kutena god sayal.
16 Ye shall not put Yahweh your God to the proof, —as ye put him to the proof in Massah [that is, "The place of proving"].
“Nimet srike LEUM GOD lowos, oana ke kowos tuh oru in acn Massah.
17 Ye shall, keep, the commandments of Yahweh your God and his testimonies and his statutes which he hath commanded thee;
Kowos in arulana oaru in akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa ma El sot nu suwos.
18 so shalt thou do what is right and what is pleasing in the eyes of Yahweh, —that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest enter in and possess the good land, which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers;
Oru ma suwohs ac wo ye mutun LEUM GOD, ac ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos. Kowos ac fah ku in eis facl mut ac wo fohk we su LEUM GOD El tuh wulela kac nu sin papa matu tomowos,
19 to thrust out all thine enemies from before thee, —As spake Yahweh.
ac kowos fah lusak mwet lokoalok lowos, oana El tuh wuleot nu suwos.
20 When thy son shall ask thee in time to come, saying, —What mean the testimonies and the statutes and the regulations, which Yahweh our God commanded you?
“Ke pacl fahsru uh, tulik nutuwos ac fah siyuk suwos, ‘Efu ku LEUM GOD lasr El tuh sapkin nu sesr in akos ma sap inge nukewa?’
21 Then shalt thou say unto thy son, Servants, were we unto Pharaoh in Egypt, —and Yahweh brought us forth out of Egypt with a firm hand;
Na kowos ac fah fahk nu selos, ‘Kut tuh mwet kohs lun tokosra lun acn Egypt, ac LEUM GOD El molikutla ac aksukosokye kut ke ku lulap lal.
22 and Yahweh put forth signs and wonders great and sore upon Egypt upon Pharaoh and upon all his household before our eyes;
Kut sifacna liye ke mutasr mwenmen El oru wi mwe aksangeng lulap nu sin mwet Egypt ac nu sin tokosra lalos ac mwet fulat nukewa lal.
23 but he brought us forth from thence, —that he might bring us in, to give unto us the land, which he sware unto our fathers.
El aksukosokyekutla liki facl Egypt ac uskutme nu inge, ac ase lasr facl se inge, oana ke El tuh wulela nu sin papa matu tumasr.
24 So then Yahweh commanded us to do all these statutes, to revere Yahweh our God, —for our good, all the days, to preserve us alive (as at this day);
Na LEUM GOD lasr El tuh sapkin nu sesr in akos ma sap inge nukewa, ac in akfulatyal. Kut fin oru ouinge, El ac fah karingin mutunfacl sesr ac oru in kapkapak pacl nukewa.
25 and righteousness, shall it be to us, —when we take heed to do all this commandment, before Yahweh our God, as he commanded us.
Kut fin oaru in akos ma nukewa ma God El sapkin nu sesr, El ac fah insewowo sesr.’
