“Mgbe na-adịghị anya, mụ onwe m ga-agbaso ụzọ ahụ ndị niile bi nʼụwa na-aghaghị ịgbaso. Unu niile maara nʼime obi unu na nʼime mkpụrụobi unu na o nweghị otu nʼime nkwa ọma Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu kwere nye unu nke na-emezughị. E mezuola nkwa ndị a niile; o nweghị nke ọbụla a na-emezughị.
15 And it will be just as it has come on you every word good which he spoke Yahweh God your to you so he will bring Yahweh on you every word bad until has destroyed he you from on the land good this which he has given to you Yahweh God your.
Ma dịka ezi nkwa niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu kwere si bụrụ ihe e mezuru emezu, otu a kwa ka Onyenwe anyị ga-esi mee ka ihe ọjọọ niile ọ bara mba ya mezuo nʼisi unu, tutu ruo mgbe o mere ka unu laa nʼiyi nʼezi ala ahụ ọ na-enye unu.
16 When transgress you [the] covenant of Yahweh God your which he commanded you and you will go and you will serve gods other and you will bow down to them and it will burn [the] anger of Yahweh on you and you will perish quickly from on the land good which he has given to you.
Ọ bụrụ na unu emebie ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, nke o nyere unu iwu idebe, tụgharịa malite ịgbaso na ife chi ndị ọzọ na ịkpọ isiala nye ha, iwe Onyenwe anyị ga-adị ọkụ megide unu, unu ga-alakwa nʼiyi ngwangwa nʼala ọma ahụ o nyere unu.”
