< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 “Yahweh our God will bring you to the land that you will soon enter and occupy. As you advance, he will expel from that land seven people-groups that are more powerful and more numerous than you are. He will expel the Heth people-group, the Girgash people-group, the Amor people-group, the Canaan people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group.
Mousese da eno amane sia: i, “Dilia Hina Gode da dili soge amo dilia da gesowale fimu amoga oule misini, fi bagohame amo ganodini esalebe, E da gadili sefasimu. Dilia da gusuba: i ahoasea, E da fi fesuale gala amo huluane ilia idi amola ilia gasa da dilia baligisa, amo E da gadili sefasimu. Amo fi da Hidaide, Gegasaide, A:moulaide, Ga: ina: naide, Belesaide, Haifaide amola Yebiusaide.
2 When Yahweh our God enables you to defeat [DOU] them, you must kill all of them. You must not make (an alliance/a peace treaty) with any of them. You must not act mercifully toward them.
Dilia Hina Gode da amo dunu fi dilima iasea, dilia amo huluane medole legema. Ilima gousa: su mae hamoma amola ilima mae asigima.
3 You must not marry any of them. You must not allow your daughters to marry any of their sons or allow your sons to marry any of their daughters.
Ilima uda lasu mae hamoma amola dilia mano da ilima uda lasu hou hamedafa hamoma: mu.
4 Because, if you did that, those people would cause your children to stop worshiping Yahweh and to worship other gods. If that happens, Yahweh will be very angry with you and he will get rid of you immediately.
Bai agoai hamosea, ilia da dilia mano Hina Godema fadegasea, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi amoma nodone sia: ne gadomusa: oule masunu. Amasea, Hina Gode da dilima ougimu amola dili hedolo gugunufinisimu.
5 This is what you must do to those people: Tear down their (altars/places for sacrificing animals), break apart the stone pillars [that are dedicated to their male god Baal], cut down the [poles that they use when they worship the goddess] Asherah, and burn their [wooden] idols.
Amaiba: le, ilia oloda huluane muguluma. Ilia sema mogomogoi gele amoma sia: ne gadosu liligi goudanesima. Ilia ogogosu uda ‘gode’ A: sela ea olei liligi amo abima amola ilia loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi laluga ulagisima.
6 You must do that because you are a group of people who belong to Yahweh our God. He has chosen you from among all the people-groups in the world to be his own special people.
Bai dilia da dilia Hina Gode Ea Fidafa. E da osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane ba: lalu, dilisu Ea fidafa hamoma: ne ilegei dagoi.
7 “It was not because you were more numerous than any other people-group that Yahweh preferred you; you are one of the smallest people-groups on the earth.
E da dilia idi da osobo bagade fi huluane eno ilia idi baligiba: le, dili Ea fi hamoma: ne hame ilegei. Bai dilia da osobo bagade fifi asi gala amo ganodini fonobahadidafa fi ba: i. Eno fi huluane ilia idi da dilia idi baligi.
8 Instead, it is because Yahweh loved you and because he wanted to do what he vowed to your ancestors. That is the reason that he rescued you by his great power [MTY], and freed you from being slaves [MTY] of the king of Egypt.
Be Hina Gode da dilima asigi amola E da Ea musa: sia: i amo dilia aowalali ilima ilegele sia: i amo hamomusa: hanai galu. Amaiba: le, E da dilia musa: Idibidi hina bagade ea se iasu diasu udigili hawa: hamonanu, dili halegale masa: ne, amo logo doasi dagoi.
9 So do not forget that Yahweh our God is the only/true God. He will do what he agreed to do for you, and he will faithfully love (for 1,000 generations/forever) all those who love him and who obey his commandments.
Dilia Hina Gode Hisu da Godedafa amola E da Ea fi yolesimu hame dawa: Amo mae gogolema. E da Ea gousa: su noga: le ouligimu amola E mae yolesili asigi hou amo E da Ema asigi dunu amola nabasu dunu egaga fifi misunu idi amo1000 asili ilima olelemu.
10 But for those who hate him, he will (pay them back/do to them what they deserve); he will punish them and quickly get rid of them.
Be E da hedolowane Ema higa: i dunuma se nabasu imunu.
11 “So you must be sure to obey all the commandments and rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.
Amaiba: le, dilia na olelei liligi huluane nabawane hamoma. Dilia sema huluane na da wali eso dilima olelei, amoma fa: no bobogema.
12 If you heed these commands and obey them faithfully, Yahweh our God will do what he has agreed to do for you, and he will faithfully love you, which is what he vowed to your ancestors that he would do.
Dilia da mae yolesili amo hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamosea, dilia Hina Gode amola da Ea gousa: su dilima i amo noga: le ouligimu. Amola E da dilia aowalali ilima dafawane ilegele sia: i defele, E da Ea asigidafa hou mae yolesili dilima olelemu.
13 He will love you and bless you. He will enable you to have many children [DOU]. He will bless your fields, with the result that you will have plenty of grain and [grapes to make] wine and plenty of [olive] oil. You will have many cattle and sheep. He will do all these things for you in the land that he promised to your ancestors that he would give to you.
E da dilima asigimu amola hahawane dogolegelewane imunu. Dilia idi da heda: mu amola dilia mano bagohame lalelegemu. E da dilia ifabi amoma hahawane dogolegele hamomu. Amasea dilia da gagoma, waini amola olife susuligi bagade ba: mu. E da dili hahawane fidili, bulamagau amola sibi bagohame dilima imunu. E da dilima amo hahawane dogolegele hou hamomu. E da amo hou soge amo E da dilia aowalali ilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amo ganodini hamomu.
14 He will bless you more than he will bless any other people-group. All of you will be able to have/produce children [LIT]. All of your livestock will be able to produce offspring.
Ea hahawane fidisu hou dilima da amo hou eno fifi asi gala hamosu bagadewane baligimu. Dilia amola dilia ohe fi da aligime hamedafa ba: mu.
15 And Yahweh will protect you from all illnesses. You will not be afflicted with any of the dreadful diseases that [our ancestors knew about] in Egypt, but all your enemies will be inflicted with those diseases.
Dilia da mae oloma: ne, Hina Gode da dili gaga: mu. Dilia olo bagade Idibidi soge ganodini madelai amo da dilima hame madelamu. Be E da dilima ha lai dunu ilima amo olo madelama: ne imunu.
16 You must get rid of all the people-groups that Yahweh our God will enable you to conquer. Do not [SYN] act mercifully toward any of them. And do not worship their gods, because if you do that, it would be like falling into a trap [from which you will never be able to escape].
Gode da dunu fi mogili dilia gasaga ilima hasalasima: ne, dilima imunu. Amo dunu fi ilima mae asigili wadela: ma. Dilia da bogosa: besa: le, ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ma mae nodone sia: ne gadoma.
17 “Do not think to yourselves, ‘These people-groups are more numerous/powerful than we are, so we certainly cannot [RHQ] expel them.’
Amo dunu fi ilia idi da dilia idi amo baligiba: le, dilia da ili sefasimu da hamedei mae dawa: ma.
18 Do not be afraid of them. Instead, think about what Yahweh our God did to the king of Egypt and to all the people whom he [ruled].
Ilima mae beda: ma! Hina Gode da Idibidi Hina amola ea dunu fi ilima gasa bagade hou hamoi. Amo mae gogolema.
19 Do not forget the terrible plagues that your ancestors saw [Yahweh inflict on the people of Egypt], and the many [DOU] miracles [that he performed], and the very powerful [DOU, MTY] way by which he brought your ancestors out [of Egypt]. Yahweh our God will do the same kind of things to the people-groups that you are afraid of now.
Se nabasu bagade da ilima doaga: i. Amo dilia da siga ba: i dagoiba: le mae gogolema. Hina Gode da dilia se iasu diasu logo doasima: ne, gasa bagadedafa hawa: hamosu amo amola mae gogolema. E da Idibidi dunu fi gugunufinisi dagoi. Amo defele E da dunu fi amo dilia da wali ilima beda: i, E da amo dunu gugunufinisimu.
20 Furthermore, he will cause them to become terrified, and he will destroy those who remain alive and run away to hide from you.
Ea hamobeba: le, ilia da beda: iba: le, ededenale hobeamu. Ilia da hobeale, wamoaligimusa: dawa: mu, be E da amo huluane gugunufinisimu.
21 Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God will be with/among you. He is a great God; he is the one you should be afraid of.
Amaiba: le, amo dunu fi ilima mae beda: ma. Hina Gode da dili fidimusa: esala. E da Gode bagadedafa amola dunu huluane da Ema beda: mu da defea.
22 He will expel those people-groups gradually. You should not [try to] expel all of them at one time, because if you did that, the number of wild animals would quickly increase, [and you would not be able to get rid of them].
Dilia da gusuba: i ahoasea, E da amo dunu fi huluane afae afae gadili sefasimu. Dilia da eso afae amo ganodini amo dunu fi gugunufinisimu hamedei ba: mu. Amai galea gasonasu ohe fi ilia idi da heda: le, dili gugunufinisimu.
23 Instead, Yahweh will enable you to defeat your enemies [one people-group at a time]. He will cause them to panic until they are destroyed.
Be Hina Gode da dilima ha lai amo dili gugunufinisima: ne dilima imunu. Ilia da bagadewane ededenale beda: lalu, gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu.
24 He will enable you to defeat [IDM] their kings. After you kill them, their names will be forgotten {people will forget about them}. No people-group will be able to stop you; you will destroy all of them.
E da ilia hina bagade dunu dilia gasaga ilima hamoma: ne dilima imunu. Dilia da amo medole legemu amola ilia dio gogolei dagoi ba: mu.
25 You must burn the wooden idols [that represent] their gods. Do not desire to take the silver or gold [decorations] that are on those idols, because if you take them for yourselves, they will be like a trap [to cause you to want to worship those idols]. Yahweh hates [the worship of those idols].
Dilia da ilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi huluane laluga ulagisima. Silifa, gouli amola amo liligi ganodini diala mae hanaiwane ba: ma amola mae lama. Amane hamosea, amo da dilima bogosu liligi agoaiwane gala. Bai Hina Gode da loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima sia: ne gadosu hou bagadewane higasa.
26 You must not bring any of those disgusting idols into your houses, because if you do that, God will curse you like he curses them. You must hate and despise [DOU] those idols, because they are things that [Yahweh] has cursed.”
Dilia amo loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi amo dilia diasu ganodini mae gaguli misa. Agoane hamosea, Gode Ea gagabusu da dilima aligima: ne madelamu. Hina Gode da amo liligima Ea gagabusu aligima: ne ilegei dagoi. Amaiba: le, dilia amola amo liligi higamu da defea.
