Deuteronomy 26

1 And it will be that you will go into the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you an inheritance and you will take possession of it and you will dwell in it.

Sɛ mudu asase a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, de rebɛma mo sɛ mo agyapade no so na moko gye, na motena so a,

2 And you will take some of [the] first of - all [the] fruit of the ground which you will bring in from land your which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you and you will put [it] in the basket and you will go to the place where he will choose Yahweh God your to cause to dwell name his there.

momfa otwakan wɔ otwabere biara mu no ngu kɛntɛn mu na momfa mmra baabi a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɛpaw sɛ wɔnkamfo ne din wɔ hɔ no,

3 And you will go to the priest who he will be in the days those and you will say to him I declare this day to Yahweh God your that I have come into the land which he swore Yahweh to ancestors our to give to us.

na monkɔ ɔsɔfo a ɔwɔ hɔ saa bere no nkyɛn nkɔka nkyerɛ no se, “Meda no adi nnɛ akyerɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, sɛ Awurade de me aba asase a ɔkaa ho ntam kyerɛɛ yɛn agyanom no so.”

4 And he will take the priest the basket from hand your and he will set down it before [the] altar of Yahweh God your.

Afei, ɔsɔfo no begye kɛntɛn no afi wo nsam de asi Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, afɔremuka no anim.

5 And you will answer and you will say before - Yahweh God your [was] an Aramean wandering ancestor my and he went down Egypt towards and he sojourned there men of fewness and he became there a nation great mighty and numerous.

Na wobɛka saa nsɛm yi wɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, anim sɛ, “Na me tete agya Yakob yɛ ɔkwantuni Aramni a ɔkɔtenaa Misraim. Nʼabusua no yɛ ketewaa bi, nanso Misraim hɔ no, wɔdɔɔso bebree bɛyɛɛ ɔman kɛse.

6 And they did harm to us the Egyptians and they afflicted us and they put on us labor hard.

Bere a Misraimfo dii yɛn nya nam so ma yɛyɛɛ wɔn nkoa no,

7 And we cried out to Yahweh [the] God of ancestors our and he heard Yahweh voice our and he saw affliction our and toil our and oppression our.

yesu frɛɛ Awurade, yɛn agyanom Nyankopɔn no. Ɔtee yɛn sufrɛ na ohuu yɛn amanehunu, ɔbrɛ ne ɔhyɛ a na yɛwɔ mu.

8 And he brought out us Yahweh from Egypt by a hand strong and by an arm outstretched and by terror great and by signs and by wonders.

Enti Awurade nam tumi a ɛyɛ nwonwa, ehu a emu yɛ den, nsɛnkyerɛnne a epusuw nnipa ne anwonwasɛm so gyee yɛn fii Misraim.

9 And he brought us to the place this and he gave to us the land this a land flowing of milk and honey.

Ɔde yɛn baa ha na ɔde asase yi a nufusu ne ɛwo resen so yi maa yɛn.

10 And therefore here! I have brought [the] first of [the] fruit of the ground which you have given to me O Yahweh and you will set down it before Yahweh God your and you will bow down before Yahweh God your.

Afei, Awurade, mede akyɛde a ɛyɛ mʼaduankan a wode fi asase mu maa me no rebrɛ wo.” Afei, fa aduan no si Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, anim na sɔre no.

11 And you will rejoice in all the good which he has given to you Yahweh God your and to household your you and the Levite and the sojourner who [is] in midst your.

Afei, kɔ na wo ne Lewifo ne ahɔho a wɔte mo mu no nkogye mo ani wɔ nneɛma pa a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, de ama wo ne wo fifo no ho.

12 If you will finish to tithe all [the] tithe of produce your in the year third [the] year of the tithe and you will give [it] to the Levite to the sojourner to the fatherless one and to the widow and they will eat in gates your and they will be satisfied.

Afe a ɛto so abiɛsa a ɛyɛ ntotoso du du afe a woayi wo nnɔbae so ntotoso du du awie no ɛsɛ sɛ mode ma Lewifo, ahɔho, nyisaa ne akunafo sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a wobedidi amee wɔ mo nkurow so.

13 And you will say before Yahweh God your I have removed the holy thing from the house and also I have given it to the Levite and to the sojourner to the fatherless one and to the widow according to all commandment your which you have commanded me not I have transgressed any of commandments your and not I have forgotten [them].

Afei, mompae mu nka wɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, anim se, “Mede akyɛde kronkron a efi me fi ama Lewifo, ahɔho, nyisaa ne akunafo sɛnea wohyɛɛ me no. Mimmuu wʼahyɛde bi so anaa me werɛ mfii wo mmara no mu biara ɛ.

14 Not I have eaten in mourning my any of it and not I have removed any of it unclean and not I have given any of it to [the] dead I have listened to [the] voice of Yahweh God my I have done according to all that you have commanded me.

Manni akronkronne no bi bere a meretwa adwo no, na bere a na me ho ntew no nso, mamfa me nsa anka bi; na mamfa mu bi nso amma awufo. Matie Awurade, me Nyankopɔn no, na mayɛ biribiara a wohyɛɛ me sɛ menyɛ no.

15 Look down! from [the] habitation of holiness your from the heavens and bless people your Israel and the land which you have given to us just as you swore to ancestors our a land flowing of milk and honey.

Fi wo soro tenabea kronkron hɔ hwɛ fam na hyira wo nkurɔfo Israel ne asase a wode ama yɛn no—asase a nufusu ne ɛwo resen wɔ so sɛnea wode ntam hyɛɛ yɛn agyanom bɔ no.”

16 The day this Yahweh God your [is] commanding you to observe the statutes these and the judgments and you will take care and you will observe them with all heart your and with all being your.

Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, hyɛ mo nnɛ sɛ, munni saa ahyɛde ne mmara yi nyinaa so; momfa mo koma ne mo kra nyinaa nni so pɛpɛɛpɛ.

17 Yahweh you have declared this day to become for you God and to walk in ways his and to keep statutes his and commandments his and judgments his and to listen to voice his.

Moapae mu aka no nnɛ se, Awurade yɛ, mo Nyankopɔn, na mobɛnantew nʼakwan so na mubedi ne mmara so ayɛ osetie ama no.

18 And Yahweh he has declared you this day to become for him a people of possession just as he spoke to you and to keep all commandments his.

Na Awurade aka no nnɛ se, moyɛ ne nkurɔfo, nʼagyapade a ne koma da ho sɛnea ɔhyɛɛ bɔ no; ɛno nti, ɛsɛ sɛ mudi nʼahyɛde nyinaa so.

19 And to set you most high above all the nations which he has made for praise and for a name and for honor and to be you a people holy to Yahweh God your just as he spoke.

Na sɛ moyɛ saa a, ɔbɛyɛ mo kɛse asen ɔman biara. Afei, mubenya nkamfo ne anuonyam a ɛboro aman a wayɛ no nyinaa de so. Mobɛyɛ ɔman a ɛyɛ kronkron ama Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, sɛnea ɔhyɛɛ bɔ no.
