< Deuteronomy 28 >

1 “If you do what Yahweh our God tells you to do and faithfully obey everything that I am today commanding you to do, he will cause you to become greater than any other nation on the earth.
Ọ bụrụ na i debezuo ma gbasookwa iwu ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị sitere nʼaka m na-enye gị taa, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-eme ka ị ghọọ mba kachasị mba niile nʼụwa elu.
2 If you obey Yahweh, this is what he will do to bless you:
Ngọzị ndị a niile ga-abịakwasị gị, zuo gị ahụ, ma ọ bụrụ na i rubere Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị isi.
3 He will bless everything that you do when you are in the cities and he will bless everything that you do when you are [working] in the fields.
Onye a gọziri agọzi ka ị ga-abụ nʼobodo, bụrụkwa onye a gọziri agọzi nʼala ubi.
4 He will bless you by giving you many children [IDM] and by giving you abundant crops, and plenty of cattle and sheep.
Ihe a gọziri agọzi ka mkpụrụ nke afọ gị ga-abụ na mkpụrụ nke ala ubi gị na mkpụrụ nke anụ ụlọ gị, ụmụ ehi gị mụrụ na ụmụ igwe ewu na atụrụ gị.
5 He will bless you by causing you to have good harvests with plenty of grain [MTY] to make bread.
Ihe a gọziri agọzi ka abọ gị na ihe i ji agwọ achịcha ga-abụ.
6 He will bless you [everywhere]—when you go out [of your houses] and when you come into [your houses].
Onye a gọziri agọzi ka ị ga-abụ mgbe ị na-abata na mgbe ị na-apụ apụ.
7 Yahweh will enable you to defeat [the armies of] your enemies; they will attack you from one direction, but they will run away from you in seven/many directions.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ndị iro ọbụla buliri onwe ha elu imegide gị bụrụ ndị e meriri nʼihu anya gị. Ha ga-esite nʼotu ụzọ buso gị agha, ma ha ga-esite nʼụzọ asaa si nʼihu gị gbalaga.
8 Yahweh will bless you [by filling] your barns [with grain], and he will bless all the work that you do; he will bless you in the land that he is giving to you.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ezipụ ngọzị ya ka ọ dịkwasị nʼelu ọba gị na nʼelu ihe ọbụla i tinyere aka gị. Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agọzi gị nʼala ahụ ọ na-enye gị.
9 “If you obey all the commandments that Yahweh our God [has given to you] and if you conduct your lives as he wants you to do, you will continue to be his people, which is what he promised.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka i guzosie ike dịka ndị nsọ ya, dịka o sitere nʼịṅụ iyi kwee nkwa ime ma ọ bụrụ na i debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, ma jee ije nʼụzọ ya niile.
10 “When all the people-groups on the earth will realize that you belong to [MTY] Yahweh, and they will be afraid of you.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị niile nọ nʼụwa ga-ahụta na ọ bụ aha Onyenwe anyị ka a kpọkwasịrị gị. Ha ga-atụkwa gị egwu.
11 “And Yahweh will cause you to prosper very much. He will give you many children [IDM], many cattle, and abundant crops in the land that he vowed to our ancestors that he would give to you.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ị babiga ụba oke na mkpụrụ nke afọ gị, na mkpụrụ nke anụ ụlọ gị, na mkpụrụ nke ihe ubi gị, nʼala ahụ ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi nye nna nna gị na ọ ga-enye gị.
12 “When rain is needed, Yahweh will send it from where he stores it in the sky, and he will bless all your work, with the result that you [will be able to] lend money to many other nations, but you will not need to borrow [money from them].
Onyenwe anyị ga-emeghepụ eluigwe ebe ụlọakụ ya dị, zidata mmiri nʼala gị nʼoge ya, ma gọzie akaọrụ gị niile. Ị ga-agbazinye ọtụtụ mba ihe, ma gị onwe gị agaghị esite nʼaka onye ọbụla gbaziri ihe ọbụla.
13 If you faithfully obey all of the commands of Yahweh our God that I am giving you today, Yahweh will cause your nation to be a leader among the nations, not inferior to them; you will always be prosperous and never be needy/poor [IDM].
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ị bụrụ isi, ọ bụghị ọdụdụ. Ọ bụrụ na ị ṅaa ntị nʼiwu ndị a Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị taa, lezie anya ịgbaso ha, ị ga-anọgide nʼelu, ị gaghị anọ nʼokpuru.
14 [Yahweh will do all these things for you] if you do not turn away from [obeying] what I am commanding you today, and if you never worship or serve other gods.
Ewezugala onwe gị site nʼiwu niile ndị a m na-enye gị taa, maọbụ gaa nʼaka nri maọbụ nʼaka ekpe, ịgbaso chi ndị ọzọ na ife ha ofufe.
15 But if you do not do what Yahweh our God is telling you to do, and if you do not faithfully obey all his rules and regulations that I am giving to you today, this is what he will do to curse you:
Ma otu ọ dị, ọ bụrụ na ị jụ irubere Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị isi, jụkwa ilezi anya, gbasoo iwu ya na ụkpụrụ ya niile, nke m na-enye gị taa, ọbụbụ ọnụ ndị a ga-adakwasị gị.
16 He will curse you when you are in the cities and he will curse you when you are [working] in the fields.
Ị ga-abụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ nʼobodo, bụrụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ nʼala ubi,
17 He will curse you by not allowing you to have good harvests with plenty of grain [MTY] to make bread.
Abọ gị na ihe ịgwọ achịcha gị ga-abụ ihe a bụrụ ọnụ.
18 He will curse you by giving you only a few children [IDM], by causing you to have poor crops, and by not enabling you to have many cattle and sheep.
Ihe a bụrụ ọnụ ka mkpụrụ nke afọ gị ga-abụ, ihe a bụrụ ọnụ ka mkpụrụ nke ala gị ga-abụ, ya na ụmụ nke igwe anụ ụlọ gị, na ụmụ ehi gị na nke igwe ewu na atụrụ gị mụrụ.
19 He will curse you [everywhere]—when you go out [of your houses] and when you come into [your houses].
Onye a bụrụ ọnụ ka ị ga-abụ mgbe ị na-abata abata na mgbe ị na-apụ apụ.
20 If you do evil things and reject Yahweh, he will curse you by causing you to (be confused/not know what to do), and to be frustrated in everything that you do, until [your enemies] quickly and completely destroy you {you will be quickly and completely destroyed}.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ezidata nʼisi gị ọbụbụ ọnụ, na ọgbaaghara, tinyere nkọcha nʼihe niile nke i tinyere aka gị, tutu ruo mgbe ị ghọrọ onye e bibiri ebibi bụrụ onye lara nʼiyi na mberede, nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile i mere site nʼịhapụ m.
21 Yahweh will cause you to experience terrible diseases, until not one of you remains alive in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ezite ajọ ọrịa nʼetiti gị tutu ruo mgbe a ga-ekpochapụ gị site nʼala ahụ ị gaje ịba nʼime ya inweta.
22 Yahweh will strike/afflict you with diseases that shrivel your bodies, with fever, with inflammation/swelling. It will be extremely hot, and it will not rain. There will be scorching winds, and [Yahweh will cause] your crops to rot. All these things will strike you until you die.

23 There will be no rain [MET], [with the result that] the ground will be [as hard as] iron [MET].
Mbara eluigwe nke ị na-ahụ anya ga-aghọ bronz, ala ị na-azọkwasị ụkwụ gị ga-aghọ igwe.
24 Instead of sending rain, Yahweh will send strong winds to blow sand and dust over your land, until your land is ruined.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka mmiri kwesiri izo nʼala gị ghọọ uzuzu na aja. Ha ga-esi na mbara eluigwe na-ezodata nʼala tutu ruo mgbe ị lara nʼiyi.
25 Yahweh will enable your enemies to defeat you; your soldiers will attack your enemies from one direction, but they will run away from your enemies in seven/many directions, and when the people of other nations see what is happening to you, they will say that it is horrible.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ndị iro gị merie gị nʼagha. Ị ga-esi otu ụzọ pụta ibuso ha agha, ma ị ga-esi ụzọ asaa gbalaga. Ị ga-aghọrọ ndị ụwa ihe a na-asọ oyi mgbe ha hụrụ ihe dakwasịrị gị.
26 [You will die], and birds and wild animals will come and eat your corpses, and there will not be anyone to scare/shoo them away.
Ozu unu ga-aghọrọ ụmụ anụ ufe niile na anụ ọhịa niile ihe oriri. O nwekwaghị onye ga-anọ menye ha egwu chụpụ ha.
27 Yahweh will cause you to have boils on your skin, like he caused the people of Egypt to have [many years ago]. He will cause you to have tumors, open sores, and your skin will itch, and there will be nothing that will cure those diseases.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ezite etuto ndị Ijipt ka ha bịakwasị gị, ya na ọnya, na agba, na ọkọ. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe a ga-eji gwọọ ha.
28 Yahweh will cause [some of] you to become insane; he will cause some of you to become blind, and he will cause [some of] your minds to become confused.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ezitere gị isi mgbaka, na ikpu ìsì, na ọgbaaghara nke obi.
29 [Because you will not be able to see where you are going], at midday you will (grope/feel your way) around with your hands, like people do in the darkness. You will continually be oppressed and robbed, and no one will help you.

30 Some of you men will be engaged/promised to marry a young woman, but someone else will rape her. You will build houses, but you will never live in them. You will plant grapevines, but you will not eat the grapes; [someone else will eat them].
Gị na nwanyị ga-enwe nkwekọrịta ịlụ di na nwunye, ma nwoke ọzọ ga-eduru ya dinaa ya nʼike. Ị ga-ewu ụlọ ma ị gaghị ebi nʼime ya. Ị ga-akụ ubi vaịnị ma ị gaghị eri mkpụrụ si na ya.
31 Your enemies will butcher your cattle while you watch them, and you will not get any of the meat to eat. They will drag away your donkeys while you watch them do it, and they will not give them back to you. They will take away your sheep; and no one will help you [rescue them].
Nʼihu anya gị ka a ga-egbu ehi gị, ma ị gaghị ata iberibe anụ ya. A ga-anapụ gị ịnyịnya ibu gị nʼihu anya gị ma a gaghị eweghachiri gị ya. Atụrụ gị ka a ga-enye ndị iro gị. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-anapụta ha.
32 While you watch, your sons and daughters will be given to foreigners to become their slaves. Every day you will very sadly watch for your children to return, but (you will watch in vain/they will never return).
A ga-ewere ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ndị inyom nye ndị mba ọzọ. Ọ ga-agụ gị agụụ ogologo oge ka ị hụ ha anya, ma ị pụghị inyere ha aka.
33 People from a foreign nation will take all the crops that you worked hard to produce, and they will constantly treat you harshly and cruelly [DOU].

34 The result will be that all these terrible things that you see/experience will cause you to become insane.
Ihe ndị a niile ị ga-eji anya gị hụ ga-eme ka i nwe isi mgbaka.
35 Yahweh will cause your legs [to be covered with] painful boils that cannot be healed, and you will have boils from the bottoms of your feet to the tops of your heads.

36 Yahweh will cause your king and the rest of you to be taken to another country, to a place in which you and your ancestors have never lived before, and there you will worship and serve gods that are made of wood or stone.
Onyenwe anyị ga-achụpụ gị na eze ahụ ị họpụtara nye onwe gị, chụpụ gị nye mba ọzọ, ebe gị na nna nna gị ha, na-amaghị. Nʼebe ahụ, ị ga-efe chi ndị ọzọ nke e ji osisi na nkume kpụọ.
37 When the people-groups in nearby countries see what has happened to you, they will be shocked/horrified; they will make fun [DOU] of you.
Ị ga-abụ ihe iju anya, na ihe e ji atụ ilu, na ihe akụkọ, nʼetiti mba ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị ga-achụga gị.
38 You will plant plenty of seeds in your fields, but you will reap only a small harvest, because locusts will eat the crops.
Ị ga-akụ ọtụtụ mkpụrụ nʼubi ma ị ga-aghọta ntakịrị mkpụrụ, nʼihi na igurube ga-ericha ihe ị kụrụ nʼubi.
39 You will plant grapevines and take care of them, but you will not pick any grapes to make wine, because worms will eat the vines.

40 Olive trees will grow everywhere in your land, but you will not get any olive oil to rub on your skin because the olives will drop [on the ground before they are ripe].
Osisi oliv ga na-eto ebe niile, ma mmanụ oliv agaghị adị nke ị ga-ete nʼahụ nʼihi na mkpụrụ oliv ga-adasịsị na-akaghị aka oge ha mara ifuru.

Ọ ga-ebinye gị ihe, ọ bụkwaghị gị ga-ebinye ya! Ọ ga-abụ isi ma ị ga-abụ ọdụdụ.

48 “Therefore, you will work for the enemies whom Yahweh will send to attack you. You will be hungry and thirsty; you will not have clothes to wear; and you will lack everything else that you need. And Yahweh will cause you to become slaves [MET] and work hard until he gets rid of you.

49 “Yahweh will cause an army from very far away [HYP] to attack you, whose soldiers speak a language that you do not know/understand. They will swoop down on you [quickly] like an eagle [SIM] attacks its prey.

51 They will [kill and] eat your livestock, and they will eat your crops, and you will (starve/die because you do not have anything to eat). They will not leave for you any grain or wine or [olive] oil or cattle or sheep; and you will all die [from hunger].

54 When your enemies have surrounded your towns, even the most gentle and sensitive men among you will want food very desperately, with the result that they will [kill their own children and] eat their flesh, because they will not have anything else to eat. They will not even share any of it with their brothers or wives whom they love very much or with any of their children who are still alive.

When your enemies have surrounded your towns, those women will be extremely hungry, with the result that after they give birth to a baby, they will secretly [kill it and] eat its flesh and also eat its afterbirth. And they will not share any of it with their husbands whom they love very much or with any of their other children.
