< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 Whanne thi Lord God hath lad thee in to the lond, in to which thou schalt entre to welde, and hath do awey many folkis bifor thee, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Ammorrey, Canenei, and Pherezei, Euey, and Jebusei; seuene folkis, of myche gretter noumbre than thou art, and strengere than thou;
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ga-akpọbata unu nʼala ahụ unu na-abanye inweta, mgbe o si nʼihu unu chụpụ ọtụtụ mba ndị a nʼihu unu, bụ ndị Het, ndị Gigash, ndị Amọrait, ndị Kenan, ndị Periz, ndị Hiv na ndị Jebus, bụ mba asaa ndị dị ike nke ukwuu, baakwa ụba karịa unu;
2 and thi Lord God hath bitake hem to thee, thou schalt smyte hem `til to deeth, thou schalt not make `with hem a boond of pees, nether thou schalt haue merci on hem,
mgbe Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu nyefere ha nʼaka unu, unu meriekwa ha, lezienụ anya hụ na unu bibiri ha kpamkpam. Ka unu na ha ghara ịgba ndụ, unu emekwarala ha ebere.
3 nether thou schalt felowschipe mariagis with him; thou schalt not yyue thi douyter to the sone `of hym, nether thou schalt take his douytir to thi sone;
Unu na ha alụrịtakwala di na nwunye, unu enyekwala ụmụ ha ndị ikom ụmụ unu ndị inyom ka ha lụọ, maọbụ lụtara ụmụ unu ndị ikom ụmụ ha ndị inyom.
4 for sche schal disceyue thi sone, that he sue not me, and that he serue more alien goddis; and the strong veniaunce of the Lord schal be wrooth, and schal do awei thee soone.
Nʼihi na nke a ga-eme ka ụmụ unu site nʼiso m tụgharịa, malite ife chi ndị ọzọ. Mgbe ahụ iwe Onyenwe anyị ga-adị ọkụ megide unu, laakwa unu nʼiyi ngwangwa.
5 But rather thou schalt do these thingis to hem; destrie ye the auteris `of hem, and breke ye ymagis `of metal, and kitte ye doun wodis, and brenne ye grauun ymagis.
Kama otu a ka unu ga-eme: tikpọọnụ ebe ịchụ aja ha niile. Kụrienụ ogidi arụsị ha niile. Gbutukwaanụ osisi Ashera ha, ma suo arụsị ha niile ọkụ.
6 For thou art an hooli puple to thi Lord God; thi Lord God chees thee, that thou be a special puple to hym, of alle puplis that ben on erthe.
Nʼihi na unu bụ ndị dị nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu. Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ahọpụtala unu site nʼagbụrụ niile dị nʼụwa a, ka unu bụrụ ndị nke ya, ihe onwunwe ya dị oke ọnụahịa.
7 Not for ye ouercamen in noumbre alle folkis, the Lord is ioyned to you, and chees yow, sithen ye ben fewere than alle puplis;
Ọ bụghị nʼihi na unu dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ karịa ndị mba ọzọ, ka Onyenwe anyị ji họpụta unu, hụ unu nʼanya otu a, nʼezie unu dịkarịsịrị nta nʼọnụọgụgụ.
8 but for the Lord louede you, and kepte the ooth which he swoor to youre fadris; and he ledde you out in strong hond, and ayen bouyte you fro the hows of seruage, fro `the hows of Farao, kyng of Egipt.
Kama, ọ bụ nʼihi Onyenwe anyị hụrụ unu nʼanya, mezuokwa iyi ọ ṅụrụ nye nna nna unu ha, ka o ji site nʼaka ya dị ike gbapụta unu site nʼala ebe unu bụ ndị ohu, site nʼike nke Fero, bụ eze Ijipt.
9 And thou schalt wite, that thi Lord God hym silf is a strong God, and feithful, and kepith couenaunt and mersi to hem that louen hym, and to hem that kepen hise comaundementis, in to a thousynde generaciouns;
Matanụ nke ọma na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu bụ Chineke. Ọ bụ Chineke kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, onye na-edebe ọgbụgba ndụ ịhụnanya ya ruo puku ọgbọ, nye ndị niile hụrụ ya nʼanya, ndị na-edebe ihe niile o nyere nʼiwu.
10 and yeldith anoon to hem that haten hym, so that he destrie hem, and differr no lengere; restorynge anoon to hem that that thei disseruen.
Ma onye kpọrọ ya asị, ọ na-eji mbibi kwụghachi ya ụgwọ nʼihu ya, ọ gaghị egbu oge ịkwụghachi onye kpọrọ ya asị ụgwọ nʼihu ha.
11 Therfor kepe thou the comaundementis, and cerymonyes, and domes, whiche Y comaunde to thee to dai, that thou do.
Nʼihi ya, hụ na unu debezuru iwu na ụkpụrụ ndị a m na-enye unu taa.
12 If aftir that thou herist these domes, thou kepist, and doist tho, thi Lord God schal kepe to thee couenaunt, and mersi, which he swoor to thi fadris.
Ọ bụrụ na unu elezie anya, ṅaa ntị nʼiwu ndị a, debe ha, ma mezuokwa ha, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ga-emezuru unu ọgbụgba ndụ ịhụnanya ahụ dịka ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi nye nna nna unu ha.
13 And he schal loue thee, and schal multiplie thee, and he schal blesse the fruyt of thi wombe, and the fruyt of thi lond, thi wheete, and vindage, oile, and droues of beestis, and the flockis of thi scheep, on the lond for which he swoor to thi fadris, that he schulde yyue it to thee.
Ọ ga-ahụ unu nʼanya, gọzie unu, meekwa ka unu baa ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ. Ọ ga-agọzi unu nʼọmụmụ, gọzie ihe ọkụkụ nke ala unu, ọka unu, na mmanya ọhụrụ unu, na mmanụ unu, na ụmụ ehi unu mụrụ, na ụmụ igwe atụrụ unu mụrụ, nʼala ahụ ọ ṅụụrụ nna nna unu ha iyi inye unu.
14 Thou schalt be blessid among alle puplis; noon bareyn of euer eithir kynde schal be at thee, as well in men, as in thi flockis.
A ga-agọzi unu karịa mba ndị ọzọ niile dị nʼụwa. Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu, maọbụ nwoke maọbụ nwanyị ga-anọ na-amụtaghị nwa, ọ dịkwaghị anụ ụlọ unu ga-agba aka nwa.
15 The Lord schal do awei fro thee all ache, `ether sorewe; and he schal not brynge to thee the worste siknessis of Egipt, whiche thou knewist, but to alle thin enemyes.
Onyenwe anyị ga-ewepụrụ unu ọrịa niile. Ọ gaghị ekwe ka ọrịa ndị Ijipt ọbụla, nke unu na-echeta nke ọma dakwasị unu, ọrịa ndị a niile ka ọ ga-eme ka ọ bịakwasị ndị iro unu!
16 And thou schalt `deuoure, that is, distrie, alle puplis, whiche thi Lord God schal yyue to thee; thin iye schal not spare hem, nethir thou schalt serue the goddis `of hem, lest thei ben in to the fallyng of thee.
Mba ọbụla Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu nyefere unu nʼaka ka unu ga-ala nʼiyi. Unu emerela ha ebere, unu efekwala chi niile ha, nʼihi na nke a ga-abụrụ unu ihe ịma nʼọnya.
17 If thou seist in thin herte, These folkis ben mo than Y, hou may Y do awei hem?
Ma eleghị anya, unu ga na-eche nʼime onwe unu sị, “Mba ndị a dị ike karịa anyị, olee otu anyị ga-esi chụpụ ha?”
18 `nyle thou drede, but haue thou mynde, what thingis thi Lord God dide to Farao, and alle Egipcians;
Ma unu atụla egwu! Naanị chetanụ ihe Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu mere Fero na ndị Ijipt niile.
19 `he dide the gretteste veniaunces, whiche thin iyen sien, and miraclis and grete wondris, and the strong hond, and arm `holdun forth, that thi Lord God schulde lede thee out; so he schal do to alle puplis whiche thou dredist.
Unu ji anya unu hụ ọnwụnwa ukwuu niile, ihe ịrịbama niile na ihe ebube niile, nʼaka ahụ dị ike na ogwe aka esetipụrụ esetipụ, nke Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ji kpọpụta unu. Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ga-emekwa otu ihe ahụ nʼebe ndị niile a unu na-atụ egwu ugbu a.
20 Ferthermore and thi Lord God schal sende venemouse flies in to hem, til he do awei, and destrye alle men, that fledden thee, and thei schulen not mowe be hid.
Karịsịa, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu ga-ezipụ ebu nʼetiti ha tutu ruo mgbe ọ bụladị ndị fọdụrụ ndụ, ndị ahụ ga-ezo onwe ha site nʼebe unu nọ, ghọrọ ndị e bibiri.
21 Thou schalt not drede hem, for thi Lord is in the myddis of thee, grete God, and ferdful.
Unu amala jijiji nʼihu ha, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, onye nọ nʼetiti unu bụ Chineke dị ukwuu, dịkwa egwu.
22 He hym silf schal waste these naciouns in thi siyt, litil and litil, and bi partis; thou schalt not mow do awey `tho naciouns togidere, lest peraventure beestis of erthe be multiplied ayens thee;
Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, ga-achụpụ mba ndị a ntakịrị ntakịrị. Ọ gaghị ekwe ka unu chụpụ ha otu ugboro, ma ọ bụghị ya, ụmụ anụ ọhịa ọjọọ ga-amụba megide unu.
23 and thi Lord God schal yyue hem in thi siyt, and he schal sle hem, til thei be doon awey outerly.
Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-enyefe ha nʼaka unu, ọ ga-etinye ha oke ọgbaaghara nʼobi, tutu ruo mgbe ha lara nʼiyi.
24 And he schal bitake the kyngis `of hem in to thin hondis, and thou schalt destrie the names `of hem vndur heuene; noon schal mow ayenstonde thee, til thou al to-breke hem.
Eze ha niile ka ọ ga-enyefe nʼaka unu, unu ga-ehichapụkwa aha ha nʼelu ụwa. Ọ dịkwaghị onye pụrụ iguzo nʼihu unu, nʼihi na unu ga-ebibi ha niile.
25 Thou schalt brenne in fier the grauun ymagis `of hem; thou schalt not coueite the siluer and gold, of whiche tho ymagis ben maad, nether thou schalt take of tho ony thing to thee, lest thou offende therfor, for it is abhominacioun of thi Lord God.
Kpọọnụ arụsị niile nke apịrị apị nke chi niile ha ọkụ. Unu enwela anya ukwu nʼebe ọlaọcha maọbụ ọlaedo dị ha nʼahụ dị. Unu ewerela ya ka ọ bụrụ nke unu, ka unu ghara ịbụ ndị ọ matara nʼọnya, nʼihi na ọ bụ ihe arụ nye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu.
26 Nether thou schalt brynge ony thing of the idol in to thin hous, lest thou be maad cursid, as also that idol is; thou schalt wlate it as filthe, and thou schalt haue it as defoulyng, and filthis of abhomynacioun, for it is cursid.
Unu ewebatala ihe arụ ọbụla nʼụlọ unu, ka unu ghara ịbụ ihe e debere iche nye mbibi dịka ya. Kpọọnụ ihe arụ ahụ asị, ledakwanụ ya anya, nʼihi na ihe e debere iche nye mbibi ka ọ bụ.
