< Deuteronomy 9 >

1 Hear O Israel! thou art passing, to-day, over the Jordan, to go in to dispossess nations, greater and stronger than thou, —cities great and fortified into the heavens;
“Mwet Israel, kowos in porongo! Misenge kowos ac fahsr alukela Infacl Jordan ac eis acn sin mutunfacl ma yohk liki kowos ac ku liki kowos. Siti selos arulana yohk, ac pot kac uh fulat nwe lucng.
2 a people great and tall, the sons of Anakim, —whom, thou, knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
Mwet we uh mwet na loeska ac fokoko. Elos ma nutin mwet Anak su mwet na yohk pisa, ac kowos lohng kaclos lah wangin mwet ku in lainulos.
3 So then, thou must consider to-day, that Yahweh thy God, he it is that is passing over before thee as a consuming fire, he, will destroy them, and, he, will cause them to bow down before thee, —so shalt thou dispossess them, and destroy them speedily, as Yahweh hath spoken unto thee.
Tusruktu inge kowos ac fah sifacna liye lah LEUM GOD lowos El ac fahsr meet liki kowos oana sie e na ngeng. El ac kutangulosla ke kowos fahsryak nu we, na kowos ac ukwalosyak ac sa na kunauselosla, oana El wulela.
4 Do not speak in thy heart, when Yahweh thy God casteth them out from before thee saying, For mine own righteousness, hath Yahweh brought me in, to possess this land, —whereas it is for the lawlessness of these nations, that, Yahweh, is dispossessing them from before thee.
“Tukun LEUM GOD lowos El luselosla keiwos, kowos in tia nunku mu El uskowosme ac sot lowos acn se inge ke sripen kowos mwet suwohs. Mo. LEUM GOD El ac lusla mwet inge keiwos mweyen elos mwet koluk.
5 Not for thine own righteousness, nor for the uprightness of thine own heart, art thou going in to possess their land, —but for the lawlessness of these nations, is, Yahweh thy God driving them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers, unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob.
Tia mweyen kowos wo ac oru ma suwohs pa El lela nu suwos in eis acn selos. El ac luselosla mweyen elos koluk, ac mweyen El kena akpwayeye wuleang lal ma El tuh oru nu sin papa matu tomowos — Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob.
6 So then, thou must consider that, not for thine own righteousness, is Yahweh thy God giving unto thee this good land to possess it, —for a stiff-necked people, thou art.
Kowos in arulana etu lah LEUM GOD El tia sot lowos acn wowo se inge mweyen kowos pa fal in eis. Mo, kowos mwet likkeke.
7 Remember—do not forget, how thou didst provoke Yahweh thy God, in the desert, —yea from the day when thou camest forth out of the and of Egypt until ye entered as far as this place, have ye been quarrelling, with Yahweh.
“Nimet mulkunla ke kowos tuh oru LEUM GOD lowos El kasrkusrak yen mwesis. Mutawauk oe ke len se kowos illa liki acn Egypt nwe ke len se kowos sun acn inge, kowos nuna utuk nunak lainul.
8 Even in Horeb, ye provoked Yahweh to wrath, —so that Yahweh showed himself angry with you to destroy you.
Finne ke Eol Sinai, kowos tuh akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD— lupan kasrkusrak lal fal na in anwuki kowos.
9 When I went up into the mountain to receive the tables of stone—the tables of the covenant, which Yahweh had solemnised with you, then abode I in the mountain forty days and forty nights, food, did I not, eat, and water, did I not drink.
Nga utyak nu fineol ah in eis eot tupasrpasr ma wuleang inmasrlowos ac LEUM GOD tuh simla fac. Nga tuh muta we len angngaul ac fong angngaul, ac tia mongo ku nim kutena ma.
10 Then did Yahweh deliver unto me the two tables of stone, written with the finger of God, —and [there was] upon them, according to all the words which Yahweh had spoken with you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the convocation.
Na LEUM GOD El ase nu sik eot tupasrpasr luo su El sifacna simusla fac ke kufinpaol ma El tuh fahk nu suwos liki e sac ke len se ma kowos tuh tukeni pe eol soko ah.
11 So then it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Yahweh gave unto me the two tables of stone the tables of the covenant.
Aok, tukun len angngaul ac fong angngaul, LEUM GOD El ase nu sik eot tupasrpasr luo ma El simusla wuleang lal fac.
12 Then said Yahweh unto me—Up! get down quickly out of this mountain, for thy people whom thou hast brought forth out of Egypt, have broken faith, —they have turned aside quickly, out of the way which I commanded them, —they have made them a molten image.
“Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Sulaklak tufokla, mweyen mwet lom su kom kolma liki Egypt elos oru ma na koluk. Elos forla liki ma nga sapkin nu selos, ac orala sie ma sruloela nu selos sifacna.’
13 And Yahweh spake unto me saying, —I have looked on this people, and lo! a stiff-necked people, it is.
“LEUM GOD El oayapa fahk nu sik, ‘Nga etu lupan likkeke lun mwet inge.
14 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and wipe out their name from under the heavens, —and make thee into a nation stronger and more in number than they.
Nimet srike in kutongyuwi. Nga akoo in kunauselosla tuh in wangin mwet fah sifil esamulos nwe tok. Na nga fah oru tuh fwilin tulik nutum in sie mutunfacl yohk ac ku lukelos.’
15 So I turned, and came down out of the mountain, now the mountain was burning with fire, —and the two tables of the covenant were upon my two hands.
“Na nga forla ac fani liki eol uh, ac nga us inpouk eot tupasrpasr luo ma simla wuleang uh fac. In pacl sac e na lulap se firirrir fineol uh.
16 Then looked I, and lo! ye had sinned against Yahweh your God, ye had made you a molten calf, —ye had turned aside quickly, out of the way which Yahweh had commanded you.
Nga liye lah kowos seakos tari sap lun LEUM GOD nu suwos, ac kowos orekma koluk lainul ke kowos sifacna orala sie ma sruloela osra nu suwos in luman soko cow mukul.
17 So I seized the two tables, and cast them from off my two hands, —and brake them in pieces before your eyes.
Ke ma inge, nga sisya eot tupasrpasr uh nu infohk uh ye motowos, na fokelik nu ke ip srisrik.
18 Then lay I prostrate before Yahweh as at the first, forty days and forty nights, food, did I not eat, and water, did I not drink, —because of all your sin which ye had sinned, in doing the thing that was wicked, in the eyes of Yahweh. to provoke him to anger.
Na nga sifil oankiyuki ye mutun LEUM GOD ke len angngaul ac fong angngaul, ac tia mongo ku nim kutena ma. Nga oru ouinge mweyen kowos orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD ac akkasrkusrakyal.
19 For I shrank with fear from the face of the anger and the hot displeasure, wherewith Yahweh was provoked against you to destroy you, —but Yahweh hearkened unto me, even at that time.
Nga tuh sangeng ke mulat upa lun LEUM GOD, mweyen lupan kasrkusrak lal fal na in kunauskowosla; tusruktu LEUM GOD El sifilpa porongeyu.
20 And with Aaron, did Yahweh show himself exceedingly angry, to destroy him, —so I prostrated myself, even in behalf of Aaron at that time.
LEUM GOD El oayapa kasrkusrak sel Aaron ac oru Elan unilya, ouinge nga pre pac kacl Aaron in pacl sac pac.
21 And your sin which ye had made even the calf, took I and burned it up with fire, and pounded it very small, until it was fine as dust, —then cast I the dust thereof into the torrent that descended out of the mountain.
Nga eisla ma koluk se kowos orala — cow mukul osra soko ah — ac sisang nu in e uh. Na nga fukulya ac ililya in mwesri, ac sisla kutkut uh nu luin infacl soko ma soror fineol uh me.
22 Also, at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hataavah, a cause of provocation, became ye unto Yahweh.
“Kowos tuh oayapa akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD lowos ke pacl se kowos muta in acn Taberah, Massah, ac Kibroth Hattaavah.
23 Also when Yahweh sent you out of Kadesh-barnea saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given unto you then quarreled ye with the bidding of Yahweh your God, and trusted him not, neither hearkened unto his voice.
Oayapa ke pacl se El supwekowosla liki Kadesh Barnea ac sap kowos in som ac eisla facl se ma El asot nu suwos, a kowos utuk nunak lainul. Kowos tiana lulalfongel ku aksol.
24 Ye have been quarrelling, with Yahweh, —from the day that I first knew you.
Kowos nuna utuk nunak na lain LEUM GOD oe ke nga tufahna etekowosla ah.
25 Thus, then lay I prostrate before Yahweh, the forty days and the forty nights that I did lie prostrate, —because Yahweh spake of destroying you.
Ouinge nga oankiyuki ye mutun LEUM GOD ke len angngaul ac fong angngaul mweyen nga etu lah El akoo in kunauskowosla.
26 Therefore I prostrated myself unto Yahweh and said, My Lord Yahweh! Do not destroy thy people even thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed in thy greatness, —which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a firm hand.
Ac nga pre, ‘O LEUM GOD Fulatlana, nimet kunausla mwet lom inge, su kom molelosla ac usalosme liki facl Egypt ke ku lulap lom.
27 Have remembrance of thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac and of Jacob, —do not regard the obduracy of this people, or their lawlessness or their sin:
Esamul Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob, mwet kulansap lom, ac nimet lohang nu ke likkeke, kutasrik ac orekma koluk lun mwet inge.
28 lest the land out of which thou hast brought us forth say, Because Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land of which he had spoken to them, —and because he hated them, took he them forth to put them to death in the desert.
Kom fin kunausla mwet lom, na mwet Egypt uh ac fahk mu kom kofla usla mwet lom nu in facl se kom tuh wulela nu selos kac. Elos ac fahk mu kom usla mwet lom nu yen mwesis in onelosi we, mweyen kom srungalos.
29 Yet, they, are thy people and thine inheritance, —whom thou hast brought forth with thy great strength, and with thy stretched-out arm.
Pwayeiya uh, mwet inge pa kom tuh sulela in ma lom, ac su kom usalosme liki Egypt ke po kulana lom!
