Deuteronomy 10
1 “Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Cut two stone tablets like the first ones. And make a wooden chest to put them in. Then [bring the tablets] up to me on this mountain.
“Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Taflela luo eot tupasrpasr oana ma meet ah, ac orala sie tuptup sak in sang nwanak. Na fanyak nu yuruk fineol uh,
2 I will write on those tablets the same words that I wrote on the first tablets, the ones that you broke. Then you can put them in the chest.’
ac nga fah sifil simusla ma nga tuh simusla fin eot ma kom fukulya ah, na kom fah filiya in tuptup an.’
3 “So I made a chest. I used wood from an acacia tree to make it. Then I cut two tablets of stone like the first ones, and I went up the mountain carrying the tablets.
“Ouinge nga orala sie tuptup ke sak acacia, ac taflela luo eot tupasrpasr oana ma meet ah, ac usak nu fineol ah.
4 There Yahweh wrote on the tablets the [same] Ten Commandments [that he had written on the first tablet]. They are the commandments that he told to your ancestors from the middle of the fire on the mountain, when they were gathered [at the bottom of the mountain]. Then Yahweh gave the tablets to me,
Na LEUM GOD El sifil simusla fin eot luo inge kas na ma El tuh simusla meet ah — Ma Sap Singoul ma El tuh sot nu suwos ke pacl se El kaskas liki e sac, ke len se ma kowos tukeni pe eol soko ah. LEUM GOD El ase nu sik eot tupasrpasr luo ah,
5 and I turned and went down the mountain. Then, just as he had commanded, I put them in the chest that I had made. And they are still there.”
ac nga forla ac tufoki. Na, in oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin, nga filiya in tuptup se ma nga orala — na oanna loac nwe misenge.” (
6 (Then, from the wells that belonged to the people of Jaakan, the Israeli people traveled to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and his son Eleazar took his place and became the Supreme Priest.
Mwet Israel uh mukuiyak liki acn ma lufin kof lun mwet Jaakan oan we, ac som nu Moserah. Aaron el misa ac pukpuki we, na Eleazar, wen natul, el aolulla in mwet tol.
7 From there, the Israelis traveled to Gudgodah, and from there to Jotbathah, which was a place that had many streams.
Liki acn we elos som nu Gudgodah, na suwosla nu Jotbathah, sie acn pus sungan infacl we.
8 At that time, Yahweh (set apart/appointed) the tribe of Levi to carry the chest that contained [the tablets on which were written] the Ten Commandments, and to stand in Yahweh’s presence [in the sacred tent], to offer sacrifices, and to pray for Yahweh to bless [the people. They are still doing those things] at the present time.
Na in pacl sac, LEUM GOD El srisrngiya mukul in sruf lal Levi tuh elos in liyaung Tuptup in Wuleang, in orekma nu sel oana mwet tol, ac in akinsewowoye mwet uh Inen LEUM GOD. Srakna pa inge orekma kunalos.
9 That is the reason that the tribe of Levi did not receive any land like the other tribes did. What they received was the work/privilege of being Yahweh’s [priests], which is what he said that they should do.)
Pa inge sripa se oru sruf lal Levi tia wi eis acn selos in oana sruf ngia. Mwe insemowo lalos pa elos mukena ku in mwet tol lun LEUM GOD, oana LEUM GOD lowos El wulela kac.)
10 “I stayed on the mountain 40 days and nights, just like I did the first time. [I prayed to] Yahweh, and he (answered my prayers/did what I requested) again and said that he would not destroy your ancestors.
“Nga tuh mutana fineol ah len angngaul ac fong angngaul, oana ke nga oru meet ah. LEUM GOD El sifilpa porongeyu ac insese in tia kunauskowosla.
11 Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Continue your journey, going in front of the people, to occupy the land that I vowed your ancestors that I would give to you.’”
Na El sap nga in som ac kol kowos, tuh kowos in ku in eis lowos facl se ma El tuh wulela kac mu El ac sang lun papa matu tomowos.
12 “Now, you Israeli people, [I will tell you] [RHQ] what Yahweh our God requires/demands that you do. He requires you to revere him, to conduct your lives as he wants you to, to love him, and to serve him wholeheartedly [DOU],
“Inge, mwet Israel, lohng ma LEUM GOD lowos El enenu suwos: kowos in akfulatye LEUM GOD ac oru ma nukewa ma El sap. Lungse El ac kulansupwal ke insiowos nufon,
13 and to obey all of his commandments [DOU] which I am giving to you today for your benefit.
ac akos ma sap lal nukewa, su nga asot nu suwos misenge tuh in fah wo nu suwos.
14 “Do not forget that Yahweh our God owns even the sky and everything that is in it. He also owns the earth and everything that is on it.
Finne acn fulatlana inkusrao, ma lun LEUM GOD. Faclu pac ma lal, ac ma nukewa fac.
15 But [in spite of owning all those things], Yahweh loved your ancestors, and from all the people-groups [on the earth] he chose us, their descendants, and we are still his people.
Ke sripen lungse lun LEUM GOD nu sin papa matu tomowos tuh arulana ku, oru El sulekowosla ac tia kutena mwet saya, na kowos srakna mwet solla lal.
16 So you must stop sinning [MET] and stop being stubborn [IDM]!
Ouinge, mutawauk inge fahla, kowos in akos LEUM GOD, ac tia sifil moul in likkeke.
17 Yahweh our God is greater than all gods, and he is greater than all rulers. He is very powerful [DOU] and awesome. He (is impartial/does not do things that favor one (group/person) more than others), and he does not accept bribes.
LEUM GOD lowos El God lun god uh, ac El Leum lun leum uh. El God fulatlana ac kulana, su fal mwet uh in aksol. El tia wiwikas, ac El tia eis mwe eyeinse.
18 He makes sure that orphans and widows are treated fairly. He loves even (foreigners/people from other countries) who live among us Israeli people, and he gives them food and clothes.
El taranna tuh tulik mukaimtal ac katinmas uh in karinginyuk wo; El lungse pac mwetsac su muta inmasrlosr, ac El kitalos mongo ac nuknuk.
19 So you must love those foreigners too, because you were once foreigners when you were living in Egypt.
Ouinge kowos in akkalemye pac lungse lowos nu sin mwetsac uh, mweyen sie pacl ah kowos tuh mwetsac in facl Egypt.
20 Revere Yahweh our God and worship only him. (Be faithful to/Have a close relationship with) him, and say that he should punish you if you do not do what you promise.
Kowos in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos ac alu nu sel mukena. In pwaye insiowos nu sel, ac oru wuleang lowos ke Inel mukena.
21 He is the one whom you must praise. He is our God, and we have seen the great and amazing things that he has done for us.
Kaksakunul tuh El God lowos, ac kowos sifacna liye ke motowos ma yohk ac ma usrnguk El oru keiwos.
22 When our ancestors, [Jacob and his family], went down to Egypt, there were only seventy of them. But now Yahweh our God has caused us to be as numerous as the stars in the sky.”
Ke mwet matu lowos ah tuh som nu Egypt, elos mwet na itngoul. A inge LEUM GOD lowos El akpusyekowoselik, oana itu inkusrao.
