Deuteronomy 1
1 In this book is written what Moses/I said to the Israeli people. He/I told them these things when they/we were in the desert, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. They/We had set up our tents near [a place named] Suph, between Paran [town on the one side of the river] and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab [towns on the other side of the river].
Amo buga ganodini da Mousese ea sia: dedei diala. Amo sia: e da Isala: ili dunu ilia da wadela: i soge Yodane Hano amoga gusu ganodini esalu ilima sia: i. Ilia da Yodane Hano sogebi dio amo Sufe amo ganodini esalu. (Sufe da dogoa dialu. La: idi da Balane hafoga: i soge galu, la: idi da Dofele moilai, La: ibane moilai, Ha: selode moilai amola Disahabe moilai.)
2 To walk from Sinai [Mountain] to the Kadesh-Barnea [oasis], people usually travel for only eleven days, going by way of the hilly area named Edom.
(Eso gidayale gala emoga ahoasea, dilia da Sainai goumi yolesili, Idome agolo soge amoga asili, Ga: idesie Bania amoga doaga: mu.)
3 Forty years after (the Israelis/we) left Egypt, in the middle of January, Moses/I told the Israeli people everything that Yahweh had commanded him/me to tell them.
Isala: ili dunu da Idibidi yolesili ode 40 agoane wadela: i soge ganodini lalu. Eso age, oubi gida amola ode 40 amoga Mousese da Gode Ea olelei liligi huluane Isala: ili fi ilima olelei.
4 This was after they/we had defeated Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who lived in Heshbon [city], and Og, the king of the Bashan [region] who lived in Ashtaroth and Edrei [towns].
Hina Gode da hina bagade Saihone (A: moulaide dunu ouligisu musa: Hesiabone moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu) amola hina bagade Oge (Ba: isane dunu ouligisu musa: da Asadalode amola Edelei, amo moilai ganodini esalu), amo fane legei dagoi. Amo fa: no Mousese da sia: olelei.
5 Moses/I told them these things while the people were in the Moab region, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. He/I (explained to them/enabled them to understand) God’s laws. This is what he/I said to them:
Isala: ili dunu da Moua: be soge (Yodane Hano amoga gusu galu) amo ganodini esalu. Amo esoga Mousese da Gode Ea olelesu amola Ea Sema ilima muni olelesu.
6 “Yahweh our God said to us when we were at Sinai [Mountain], ‘You have stayed for a very long time at [the bottom of] this mountain.
E amane sia: i “Ninia da Sainai Goumia esaloba, Hina Gode da ninima amane sia: i, ‘Dilia da amo goumia esala helesa.
7 So now continue traveling. Go to the hilly area where the Amor people-group lives and to the nearby areas—to the Jordan [River] Valley, to the hilly region, to the western (foothills/hills at the bottom of the mountains), to the desert area to the south, to the [Mediterranean] Seacoast, to all of Canaan land, to the Lebanon [Mountains], and [northeast] to the great Euphrates River.
Dilia abula diasu mugululi, masa. Dilia A: moulaide dunu ilia agolo soge amola eno soge amo da amo sisiga: i amoga masa. Dilia Yodane Hano fago soge amola agolo soge amola gano soge amola Medidela: inia Wayabo Bagade bega: amoga masa. Ga: ina: ne soge baligili, asili Lebanone Goumi baligili, Iufala: idisi Hano bagade amoga doaga: ma.
8 Note that I will give that land to you. I, Yahweh, promised to your ancestors Abraham and Isaac and Jacob that I would give it to them and to their descendants. So now go and occupy it.’”
Amo soge huluane Na, dilia Hina Gode, da dilia aowalali dunu amo A: ibalaha: me, Aisage, Ya: igobe amola iligaga fi ilima imunu sia: i. Dilia amo sogega fimusa: lala masa.’”
9 Moses/I also said to the people, “When [we were still at Sinai Mountain], I told your ancestors ‘It is a very big burden/responsibility for me to govern all of you. So I cannot do it by myself.
Mousese da Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: i “Ninia da Sainai Goumiga esaloba na da dilima amane sia: i, ‘Nisu da dilima ouligisu amola hina esalumu da hamedei. Hawa: hamosu da bagadedafa.
10 Yahweh our God has caused us Israelis to now become as numerous as the stars in the sky.
Dilia Hina Gode da dilia fi bagade hamobeba: le, dilia idi da wali gasumuni muagado gala amo ilia idi defele ba: sa.
11 And I hope/desire that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], will cause us to become 1,000 times as numerous as we are now and that he will bless us just like he promised to do.
Hina Gode, dilia aowalalia Gode, Ea sia: i defele da dilia idi bu bagade hamone, afadafa da 1000 hamomu da defea, amola liligi bagade dilima imunu da defea.
12 But I certainly cannot [RHQ] (solve/deal with) all of your complaints/problems.
Be nisu da habodane dia sia: ga gegesu amola dioi bagade hou hahamoma: bela: ?
13 So choose some men from your tribes who are wise and who have good sense and who are respected. Then I will appoint them to be your leaders.’
Amaiba: le, dilia fi hisu hisu dunu amo da bagade dawa: su dunu amoga ilegema. Amasea, amo dunu da dilima ouligisu amola hina esaloma: ne, na da ilegemu.’
14 Your ancestors replied, ‘What you have suggested is good for us to do.’
Amo na da sia: i amola dilia da amo hou da noga: i sia: i dagoi.
15 So I took the wise and respected men [that your ancestors chose] from your tribes, and I appointed them to be your leaders. I appointed some to (rule/have authority) over 1,000 people, some to have authority over 100 people, some to have authority over 50 people, and some to have authority over ten people. I also appointed other officers from throughout your tribes.
Amaiba: le, na da asigilai amola bagade dawa: su dunu, dilia fi hisu hisu amoga lale, dili ouligima: ne ilegei. Mogili da dunu 1000 ouligi, mogili da 100 ouligi, mogili da 50 ouligi amola mogili da 10 ouligi. Amola na da eno ouligisu dunu, dilia fi huluane ganodini ilegei.
16 I instructed/told your leaders, ‘Listen to the disputes that occur among your people. Judge each dispute, including disputes between close relatives and quarrels between your people and people from other countries who live among you.
Amo esoga na da amo ouligisu dunuma amane sia: i, ‘Dilia fi amo ganodini sia: ga gegesu amola sia: eno heda: sea, dilia amo sia: noga: le nabima. Sia: huluane moloiwane fofada: ma. Isala: ili fidafa dunu amola ga fi dilia fi amo ganodini esalebe, amo huluane defele fofada: ma.
17 You must (be impartial/not favor one person more than another); you must treat poor people and important people equally. You must not worry about what anyone will think [about how you decide matters], because you will decide matters as God [wants you to]. If any quarrel/dispute is very difficult and you are unable to decide it, bring it to me, and I will decide.’
Dunu hisu hisu ilima hisu hisuwane mae fofada: ma. Dunu huluanedafa ilima defele fofada: ma. Dunu huluane ilima mae beda: ma. Dilia fofada: su da dunuga hame hamoi, be Gode Hi fawane da amo fofada: su olelesa. Be sia: da baligili gasa bagade ba: sea, amo dilia nama fofada: musa: gaguli misa. Amasea, na da sia: mu.’
18 At that time I also told you other things that you should do.”
Amo esoga amola na da dilia hawa: hamosu eno dilima olelei dagoi.”
19 “Then, just like Yahweh our God commanded us, we left Sinai [Mountain] and went through that huge desert that was very (dangerous/difficult to travel through), on the road to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. We arrived at Kadesh-Barnea.
Mousese da eno amane sia: i, “Ninia da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi. Ninia da Sainai Goumi yolesili, wadela: i hafoga: i soge bagade amo baligili asili, A:moulaide agolo sogega asili, Ga: idesie Bania amoga doaga: i.
20 I said to your ancestors, ‘We have now come to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. This is part of the area that Yahweh our God, the one whom our ancestors [worshiped], is giving to us.
21 Note that Yahweh our God is giving this land to us. So go and occupy it as he commanded. Do not be (at all/even a little bit) afraid.’
Amogawi na da dilima amane sia: i, ‘Dilia da wali A: moulaide dunu ilia agolo sogega doaga: i dagoi. Hina Gode, ninia aowalali ilia Gode, da amo soge ninima iaha. Ba: ma! Soge da goea. Gode Ea sia: defele, amo sogega fimusa: lala masa. Mae gigiluma amola mae beda: ma!”
22 But all of your ancestors came to me and said, ‘Before we go, we should [first] send some men there to explore the land, in order that they can return and tell us which will be the best road to go there and what kind of towns are there.’
Be dilia da nama misini amane sia: i, ‘Ninia da desega ahoasu dunu amo soge ba: ma: ne, ninima bisili masunusa: asunasimu da defea. Ilia da ninima masunu logo amola amo soge fi ilia hou, ninima olelema: mu.’
23 I thought that it would be good to do that, so I chose twelve men, one man from each tribe.
Amo hou na da hahawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, na da dilia fi fagoyale gala afae afae amoga dunu afae lale, huluane desega ahoasu dunu fagoyale gala ilelegei.
24 They went up into the hilly area as far as Eshcol Valley, and they explored all that area.
Ilia da agolo sogega asili, hou hogolalu, Esegole Fago amoga doaga: i.
25 They picked some of the fruit that they found there and brought it to us. They reported that the land that Yahweh our God was giving to us is very good/fertile.”
Amoga ilia ifa fage lale, ninima gaguli misi. Ilia da soge ea hou ninima olelei. Soge amo Hina Gode da ninima iaha amo da noga: idafa, ilia sia: i.
26 “But your ancestors refused to go [and conquer that land]. They rebelled against what Yahweh our God had commanded them to do, and they would not go into that land.
Be dilia da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i amoga odoga: i dagoi. Dilia da amo soge ganodini golili sa: imu higa: i galu.
27 Your ancestors [stayed] in their tents and complained saying ‘Yahweh hates us. So he has brought us here from Egypt just to allow the Amor people-group to destroy us.
Dilia da gilisili higale sia: dasu. Dilia da amane sia: i, ‘Hina Gode da nini higasa. E da nini amo A: moulaide dunu ilia nini medole legemusa: , Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne ilima i.
28 (Why should we go there?/We do not want to go there.) [RHQ] The men whom we sent there have caused us to become very discouraged/afraid. They have told us that the people there are much stronger and taller than we are and that there are extremely high [HYP] walls around their towns. Also they reported that they saw [giants there that are] descendants of Anak.’
Ninia abuliba: le amo sogega masa: bela: ? Ninia da bagade beda: i. Ninia desega ahoasu asunasi amo da ninima agoane olelei: , amo soge dunu ilia sedade amola ilia gasa amola da ninia bagade baligisa. Ilia moilai gagoi da muagado heda: sa. Dunu baligili bagadedafa ilia da amo soge ganodini esalebe ba: i.’
29 Then I said to your ancestors, ‘Do not be afraid (at all/even a little bit) [DOU] of those people!
Be na da dilima amane sia: i, ‘Amo dunuba: le mae beda: ma.
30 Yahweh our God will go ahead of you, and he will fight for you, just like you saw him do for you in Egypt
Hina Gode da dilima bisili masunu, E da dili fidili gegemu. E da Idibidi soge ganodini dili fidi amo defele fidimu.
31 and in the desert. You saw how he brought you safely here, like a man would carry his son. [SIM]’
Amola E da wadela: i hafoga: i soge amo ganodini dili fidi amo defele fidimu. E da mae yolesili eda da ea gofe ouga: ne oule ahoa, amo defele dili amo sogega doaga: musa: noga: le ouligi.’
32 [I reminded them that] he always went ahead of them while they traveled [in the desert]. He directed them by [a pillar of] fire during the night and a [pillar of] cloud during the day. He showed them places to set up their tents. But in spite of what I said, your ancestors would not trust Yahweh our God.
Be dilia da na sia: mae nabawane, Hina Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale hame dawa: i.
E da eso huluane dilima bisili, dilia golamu sogebi olelesu. E da dilima logo olelemusa: gasia lalu sawa: agoai amo ganodini bisili asi amola esoga mu mobi agoai mogomogoi amo ganodini bisili asi. Be dilia da Ea hou dafawaneyale hame dawa: i.
34 Yahweh heard what they said, and he became angry. He solemnly declared,
Hina Gode da dilia egane sia: nababeba: le, ougi ba: i. E da moloiwane amane sia: i,
35 ‘Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter the land. He has obeyed me completely. So I will give to him and to his descendants [some of] the land that he explored. He is the only one of all you people who will enter that land. None of these evil people will ever see that good land which I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors.’
‘Dunu afae amo wadela: i fi ganodini da amo soge noga: i Na da dilia aowalali ilima imunu sia: i, amo ganodini da hame masunu.
Ga: ilebe (Yefane ea mano), hi fawane da golili sa: imu. E da Na hame yolesiba: le, Na da e amola ea mano, soge e da ba: i ilima imunu.’
37 But because of [what] your ancestors [did], Yahweh was also angry with me. He said to me, ‘You also will not enter that land.
Amola dilia houba: le, Hina Gode da nama ougi galu. E nama amane sia: i, ‘Mousese! Di da amo soge ganodini hame masunu.
38 Joshua, the son of Nun, who is your helper, will enter it. Encourage him, because he is the one who will enable you Israeli people to occupy that land.’
Be dia fidisu dunu Yosiua (Nane egefe) amo ea dogo denesima: ne di fidima. E da Isala: ili dunu amo soge lala masa: ne, bisili masunu.’
39 Then Yahweh said to all of us, ‘You said that your children would be captured by your enemies. Because they are very young, they do not yet know what is good and what is evil. But they are the ones to whom I will give that land, and they will enter it and occupy it.
Amalalu, Hina Gode da nini huluanema amane sia: i, ‘Dilia mano da hame asigilaiba: le, wadela: i hou amola hou noga: i afafamusa: hame dawa: Dilia da giadofale dilima ha lai dunu da dilia mano gasawane gagumu sia: i. Be ilia fawane da soge ganodini masunu. Na da amo soge ilima imunu amola ilia fawane da amo ganodini fimusa: masunu.
40 But as for you, turn around and go back into the desert, toward the (Red Sea/Gulf of Aqaba).’
Be dilia! Dilia sinidigima! Dilia da hafoga: i wadela: i soge amoga masa. Maga: me Hano Wayabo Bagade ahoasu, amo logoga masa.’
41 Then your ancestors replied, ‘We have sinned; we have disobeyed Yahweh. So we will go and attack [the people who live in] that land, just like Yahweh our God commanded us to do.’ And each of their men put on his weapons, and they thought that it would be easy to invade the hilly region.
Be dilia da nama amane sia: i ‘Dafawane! Ninia Godema wadela: le hamoi dagoi. Be wali ninia da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele doagala: musa: heda: mu. Amalalu, dunu huluane da ea gegesu liligi salawane, dilia da agolo sogega gegemusa: masunu da asaboi liligi dawa: i galu.
42 But Yahweh said to me, ‘Tell them, “Do not go up there and attack those people, because I will not go with you. If you go, your enemies will defeat you.”’
Amola Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, ‘Isala: ili dunuma ilia da mae doagala: la masa: ne sia: ma. Bai Na amola da dili gilisili hame masunu. Dilima ha lai dunu da bu gegesea, dilia da se bagade nabasa: besa: le, mae masa: ne sia: ma.’
43 So I told that to your ancestors, but they would not heed what I said. They [again] rebelled against what Yahweh commanded them to do. Their soldiers proudly/arrogantly marched up into that hilly region.
Amaiba: le, na da dilima sia: i dagoi. Be dilia da na sia: hame nabi amola Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i liligi nabimu higa: i galu. Dilisu hanaiga hidale agolo sogega heda: i.
44 Then the men of the Amor people-group who lived in that region came out [of their towns] and attacked those soldiers. They pursued your ancestors’ soldiers like [a swarm of] bees pursues people, and they pursued them [south] from the Edom area and defeated them at Hormah [city].
Amalalu, A:moulaide dunu amo agolo soge ganodini esalu da dilima doagala: le, agime ilia hou defele dili sefasi. Ilia da Idome sogega dili fane legei amola dili sefasili, Homa moilai bai bagade amoga doaga: le fawane yolesi.
45 So your ancestors went back [to Kadesh-Barnea] and cried out to request Yahweh [to help them], but he did not heed them. He did not pay any attention to them [DOU].
Amalalu, dilia da bu misini, Godema bagadewane dinanu. Be Gode da dilia disu hamedafa nabi.
46 So we stayed there at Kadesh-Barnea for a long time.”
Amalalu, ninia da Ga: idesie sogega eso bagohame esalu,
