Deuteronomy 4
1 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, to the statutes and to the judgments, which I teach you, to do [them], that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.
Na Moses el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa ma nga luti kowos kac, na kowos fah ku in moul ac muta fin facl se su LEUM GOD lun papa tomowos El sot nu suwos.
2 Ye shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish [aught] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Nik kowos laesla kutena ma nu ke ma nga sapkin nu suwos, ac nik kowos eisla kutena ma liki. Akos ma sap nukewa lun LEUM GOD lowos ma nga sot nu suwos.
3 Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baal-peor: for all the men that followed Baal-peor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from among you.
Kowos sifacna liye ma LEUM GOD El tuh oru Fineol Peor. El onelosla nukewa su alu nu sel Baal we,
4 But ye who adhered to the LORD your God, [are] alive every one of you this day.
a kowos nukewa su inse pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD lowos, kowos srakna moul nwe misenge.
5 Behold, I have taught you statutes, and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.
“Nga tuh luti kowos ma sap nukewa, oana ke LEUM GOD luk El fahk ngan oru. Kowos in akos ma sap inge in facl se su kowos apkuran in mweuni in eisla lowos.
6 Keep therefore and do [them]; for this [is] your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which will hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation [is] a wise and understanding people.
Ke kowos oaru in liyaung ma sap inge, ac fah akkalemye nu sin mwet in mutunfacl saya lupan lalmwetmet lowos. Ke pacl elos ac lohng ma sap inge, elos ac fahk, ‘Seyal yohk lalmwetmet ac etauk lun mutunfacl lulap se inge!’
7 For what nation [is there so] great, which [hath] God [so] nigh to them, as the LORD our God [is] in all [things that] we call upon him [for]?
“Wangin kutena mutunfacl, finne arulana yohk, oasr god se su apkuran nu selos ke pacl elos enenu, in oana LEUM GOD lasr El apkuran nu sesr. El topuk kut pacl nukewa kut pang nu sel.
8 And what nation [is there so] great, that hath statutes and judgments [so] righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
Wangin kutena mutunfacl, finne yohk, oasr ma sap lalos arulana suwohs, oana ma sap nga luti nu suwos misenge.
9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou shouldst forget the things which thy eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them to thy sons, and thy sons' sons:
Kowos in arulana taran ac karinganang tuh kowos in tia mulkunla ma kowos sifacna liye ke motowos, ke lusen moul lowos nufon. Srumun nu sin tulik nutuwos ac nu sin tulik nutin tulik nutuwos.
10 [Specially] the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said to me, Assemble the people to me, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and [that] they may teach their children.
ke len se kowos tuh tu ye mutun LEUM GOD lowos Fineol Sinai, ke El fahk nu sik, ‘Eisani mwet uh nu sie. Nga lungse elos in lohng ma nga ac fahk uh, ouinge elos ac fah ku in lutlut in akosyu ke lusen moul lalos, ac oapaya loteang tulik natulos in akosyu.’
11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire to the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
“Srumun nu sin tulik nutuwos ke pacl se kowos tuh som tu pe eol soko ah, su nukla ke kulasr matoltol ac lohsr, ac e uh firir nwe lucng.
12 And the LORD spoke to you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only [ye heard] a voice.
Srumun nu selos lah LEUM GOD El tuh kaskas nu suwos liki e sac, ac kowos lohng pusracl a tiana liyal in kutena lumah.
13 And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, [even] ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
El fwackot nu suwos ma kowos enenu in oru in karinganang wuleang ma El orala inmasrlowos — kowos in akos Ma Sap Singoul, su El simusla fin eot tupasrpasr luo.
14 And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik nga in luti kowos ma sap nukewa su kowos enenu in akos in facl se su kowos apkuran in mweuni, eisla, ac oakwuki we.
15 Take ye therefore good heed to yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day [that] the LORD spoke to you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire;
“Pacl se LEUM GOD El tuh kaskas nu suwos liki e sac Fineol Sinai, kowos tiana liyal in kutena lumah. Ouinge kowos in arulana karinganang
16 Lest ye corrupt [yourselves], and make to you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
tuh kowos in tia oru ma koluk ke kowos orala nu suwos sifacna sie ma sruloala in kutena lumah — tia ke luman mukul ku mutan,
17 The likeness of any beast that [is] on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,
kosro ku won sohksok,
18 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that [is] in the waters beneath the earth:
ma orakrak ku ik.
19 And lest thou shouldst lift up thy eyes to heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, [even] all the host of heaven, shouldst be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided to all nations under the whole heaven.
Ke kowos ngetak nu inkusrao ac liye faht, malem, ac itu uh, nik kowos tafongla in alu ac orekma nu kac. LEUM GOD lowos El orala ma inge nu sin mwet nukewa faclu.
20 But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you out of the iron furnace, [even] from Egypt, to be to him a people of inheritance, as [ye are] this day.
A kowos pa mutanfahl se su El molela liki facl Egypt, su oana sie funyu ma arulana fol mwe manman osra. El uskowosme liki acn we in oru tuh kowos in mwet lal sifacna, oana ke kowos oasr kac misenge.
21 Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and swore that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not enter that good land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance:
Ke sripowos, LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sik ac orala fulahk lah nga ac fah tia alukela Infacl Jordan in utyak nu in facl se ma wo fohk we, su El asot nu suwos.
22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.
Nga ac misa in acn se inge ac tia wi aliki infacl soko uh, tusruktu kowos apkuran in alukeot ac utyak muta fin acn wowo sac.
23 Take heed to yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, [or] the likeness of any [thing] which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
Karinganangna tuh kowos in tia mulkunla wuleang ma LEUM GOD El orala yuruwos. Akos ma El sapkin, ac tia oru kutena kain in ma sruloala nu suwos sifacna,
24 For the LORD thy God [is] a consuming fire, [even] a jealous God.
mweyen LEUM GOD lowos El oana sie e firir; El tia lungse in oasr kutena god sayal.
25 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt [yourselves], and make a graven image, [or] the likeness of any [thing], and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger:
Tukun yac puspis, ke kowos okaki tari in facl sac ac oasr tulik nutuwos oayapa tulik nutin tulik nutuwos, nimet orekma koluk in orala ma sruloala nu suwos sifacna in kutena kain in lumah. Ma se inge sie ma koluk lulap ye mutun LEUM GOD, ac El ac fah arulana kasrkusrak kac.
26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from the land to which ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong [your] days upon it, but shall be utterly destroyed.
Nga pangon kusrao ac faclu in orek loh lain kowos misenge lah kowos fin seakosyu, kowos ac sa na wanginla liki facl se ma kowos ac alukela Infacl Jordan in eis. Kowos ac tia muta paht we, a kowos fah arulana sikiyukla.
27 And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.
LEUM GOD El ac fah akfahsryekowoselik inmasrlon mutunfacl saya, yen mwet na pu suwos ac painmoulla.
28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
In acn ingo, kowos ac kulansupu god su orekla ke poun mwet — god sak ac eot, god su tia ku in liye ku lohng, su tia ku in mongo ku ngok ma uh.
29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find [him], if thou shalt seek him with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
Kowos ac fah suk LEUM GOD lowos we, ac kowos fin sokol ke insiowos nufon, kowos fah konalak.
30 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things have come upon thee, [even] in the latter days, if thou shalt turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient to his voice;
Pacl kowos sun mwe ongoiya, ac ma upa ingan sikyak nu suwos, na tok kowos ac fah forla nu sin LEUM GOD ac aksol.
31 (For the LORD thy God [is] a merciful God; ) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers, which he swore to them.
El sie God pakoten. El ac fah tia kunauskowosla ku fahsr liki kowos, ac El ac fah tia mulkunla wuleang se su El sifacna orala yurin mwet matu lowos meet ah.
32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and [ask] from the one side of heaven to the other, whether there hath been [any such thing] as this great thing [is], or hath been heard like it?
“Suk ke sramsram matu, ke pacl loeloes somla, meet liki kowos isusla, ke God El tufahna orala mwet faclu. Suk pac fin faclu nufon. Ku nu oasr ma yohk oana inge sikyak meet? Nu oasr mwet lohng kutena ma ouinge?
33 Did [ever] people hear the voice of God speaking from the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
Ya nu oasr mwet moul na tukun elos lohng sie god sramsram nu selos liki sie e, oana kowos?
34 Or hath God essayed to go [and] take him a nation from the midst of [another] nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an out-stretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Ya nu oasr kutena god su srike in som eis sie un mwet liki sie pacna mutunfacl ac oru tuh elos in mwet lal sifacna, oana ke LEUM GOD lowos El oru nu suwos in Egypt? El orekmakin ku lulap ac fulat lal ye motowos. El use mwe lokoalok ac mweun, El orek mwenmen ac usrnguk, ac oru tuh mwe aksangeng puspis in sikyak.
35 To thee it was shown, that thou mightest know that the LORD he [is] God; [there is] none besides him.
LEUM GOD El fahkak ma inge nu suwos, in akpwaye nu suwos lah El mukena pa God, ac wangin pac sie sayal.
36 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee; and upon earth he showed thee his great fire; and thou heardst his words from the midst of the fire.
El oru tuh kowos in lohng pusral inkusrao me, tuh Elan ku in luti kowos; ac fin faclu El oru kowos in liye e firir mutal lal, ac El kaskas nu suwos liki e sac.
37 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out of Egypt in his sight with his mighty power.
Ke sripen El lungse papa matu tomowos meet ah, El sulekowosla ac El sifacna uskowosme liki Egypt ke ku lulap lal.
38 To drive out nations from before thee, greater and mightier than thou [art], to bring thee in, to give thee their land [for] an inheritance, as [it is] this day.
El lusla mutunfacl lulap ac ku liki kowos meet liki kowos tuku sun acn ingan, tuh Elan ku in uskowosme ac asot facl sac nu suwos — facl se su srakna ma suwos nwe misenge.
39 Know therefore this day, and consider [it] in thy heart, that the LORD he [is] God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: [there is] none else.
Ke ma inge, misenge kowos in esam ac nimet mulkunla lah LEUM GOD El God lun kusrao ac faclu. Wangin sie god saya.
40 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes and his commandments which I command thee this day, that it may be well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong [thy] days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
Akos ma sap lal nukewa ma nga asot nu suwos misenge, na ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos. Ac fah loes pacl lowos in muta fin facl se su LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos in lowos nwe tok.”
41 Then Moses set apart three cities on the side of Jordan, towards the sun-rising;
Na Moses el srela tolu siti kutulap in Infacl Jordan
42 That the slayer might flee thither, who should kill his neighbor unawares, and when he had not hated him in times past; and that fleeing to one of these cities he might live:
tuh sie mwet in ku in kaingla ac moulla we el fin uniya mwet se ke el tia oru in oaya, ac mwet sac el tia mwet lokoalok lal. El ku in kaing nu in sie siti inge, na ac tia anwuki el.
43 [Namely], Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.
Siti Bezer, su oan yen mwesis ke yen fulat tupasrpasr, ma nu sin sruf lal Reuben; siti Ramoth in acn Gilead, ma nu sin sruf lal Gad; ac siti Golan in acn Bashan, ma nu sin sruf lal Manasseh.
44 And this [is] the law which Moses set before the children of Israel.
Moses el sang ma sap lun God nu sin mwet Israel, wi mwe luti saya.
45 These [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spoke to the children of Israel, after they came forth from Egypt,
Pa inge kas in luti ac ma sap ac ma oakwuk ma Moses el fahk nu sin mwet Israel tukun elos ilme liki Egypt,
46 On the east side of Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-Peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they had come forth from Egypt:
ke elos muta infahlfal kutulap in Infacl Jordan, tulanang Bethpeor. Acn se inge tuh ma lal Tokosra Sihon lun mwet Amor, su leumi Heshbon, a Moses ac mwet Israel elos tuh kutangulla ke elos tuku liki Egypt.
47 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, who [were] on the side of Jordan, towards the sun-rising;
Elos eisla acn lal ac acn lal Tokosra Og lun Bashan, sie pac tokosra lun mwet Amor su muta kutulap in Infacl Jordan.
48 From Aroer, which [is] by the bank of the river Arnon, even to mount Sion, which [is] Hermon,
Acn se inge mutawauk ke siti Aroer, ke sisken Infacl Arnon, utyak epang nwe ke Eol Sion, su pangpang pac Fineol Hermon,
49 And all the plain on the side of Jordan eastward, even to the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
ac sisani acn nukewa kutulap in Infacl Jordan som eir lac nu ke Meoa Misa, ac nu kutulap nu pe Eol Pisgah.
