1 And now, A! ye preestis, this maundement is to you.
“Ma ugbu a, unu ndị nchụaja, ịdọ aka na ntị a dịrị unu.
2 If ye wolen here, and if ye `wolen not putte on the herte, that ye yyue glorie to my name, seith the Lord of oostis, Y schal sende nedynesse in to you, and Y schal curse to youre blessyngis; and Y schal curse hem, for ye han not putte on the herte.
Ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ige ntị, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ekpebighị nʼobi unu inye aha m otuto,” ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, na-ekwu, “Aga m ezite ọbụbụ ọnụ nʼahụ unu, aga m abụkwa ngọzị unu niile ọnụ. E, abụọlarị unu ọnụ, nʼihi na unu ekpebighị nʼobi unu ịsọpụrụ m.
3 Lo! Y schal caste to you the arm, and Y schal scatere on youre cheere the drit of youre solempnytees, and it schal take you with it.
“Nʼihi unu, aga m abara ụmụ ụmụ unu mba. Agaghị m anabata onyinye unu, aga m efesakwa nsị anụ nʼihu unu, bụ nsị nke ihe onyinye unu, aga m ewezugakwa unu site nʼihu m.
4 And ye schulen wite, that Y sente to you this maundement, that my couenaunt were with Leuy, seith the Lord of oostis.
Otu a ka unu ga-esi mara na ọ bụ mụ zitere unu ịdọ aka na ntị a, ka ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na Livayị gbara dịgide,” Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, na-ekwu.
5 My couenaunt was with hym of lijf and pees; and Y yaf to hym a drede, and he dredde me, and he dredde of face of my name.
“Ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na ya bụ nke ndụ na udo, ọ bụ m nyere ha ya, nke a bụ nʼihi nsọpụrụ. O nyere m nsọpụrụ nʼezie, tụkwaa aha m egwu.
6 The lawe of trewthe was in his mouth, and wickidnesse was not foundun in hise lippis; in pees and in equite he walkide with me, and he turnede awei many men fro wickidnesse.
Iwu nke eziokwu dị ya nʼọnụ, ọ dịkwaghị okwu ụgha ọbụla a chọpụtara nʼegbugbere ọnụ ya. O soro m jee ije nʼudo, na nʼịkwụba aka ọtọ. O mekwara ka ọtụtụ si nʼajọ omume ha chigharịa.
7 For the lippis of a prest kepen science, and thei schulen ayen seke the lawe of `the mouth of hym, for he is an aungel of the Lord of oostes.
“Nʼihi na egbugbere ọnụ onye nchụaja kwesiri ijupụta nʼihe ọmụma; e kwesikwara isi nʼọnụ ya mụta ihe, nʼihi na ọ bụ onyeozi nke Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
8 But ye wenten awei fro the weie, and sclaundren ful many men in the lawe; ye maden voide the couenaunt of Leuy, seith the Lord of oostis.
Ma unu esitela nʼụzọ ahụ wezuga onwe unu, sitekwa nʼozizi unu mee ka ọtụtụ mmadụ sụọ ngọngọ. Unu emerụọla ọgbụgba ndụ nke Livayị.” Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
9 For which thing and Y yaf you worthi to be dispisid, and bowen to alle puplis, as ye kepten not my weies, and token a face in the lawe.
“Nʼihi nke a, emeela m ka unu bụrụ ndị a na-elelị anya, na ndị e wedara nʼala nʼihu ndị mmadụ niile, nʼihi na unu agbasoghị ụzọ m, kama unu na-ele mmadụ anya nʼihu, nʼihe metụtara iwu.”
10 Whether not o fadir is of alle you? whether o God made not of nouyt you? Whi therfor ech of you dispisith his brother, and defoulith the couenaunt of youre fadris?
Ọ bụghị otu Nna ka anyị niile nwere? Ọ bụghị otu Chineke ahụ kere anyị? Gịnị mere anyị ji na-emerụ ọgbụgba ndụ nna anyị ha site na-enweghị ntụkwasị obi na mmekọrịta anyị na ibe anyị?
11 Judas trespasside, and abhomynacioun is maad in Israel, and in Jerusalem; for Judas defoulide the halewyng of the Lord, which he louyde, and he hadde the douyter of an alien god.
Juda ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi. E meela ihe arụ nʼIzrel na nʼime Jerusalem: Juda emerụọla ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị hụrụ nʼanya, lụọkwa ada chi ndị mba ọzọ.
12 The Lord schal distrie the man that dide this thing, the maister and disciple, fro the tabernacle of Jacob, and him that offrith a yifte to the Lord of oostis.
Ka Onyenwe anyị kewapụ onye mere ihe dị otu a nʼụlọ ikwu Jekọb, ka ọ ghara inwe onye akaebe, ka ọ ghara inwe onye ga-aza ya mgbe ọ kpọrọ oku maọbụ butere Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile onyinye.
13 And eftsoone ye diden this thing; ye hiliden with teeris the auter of the Lord, with wepyng and mourenyng; so that Y biholde no more to sacrifice, nether resseyue ony thing plesaunt of youre hond.
Ihe ọzọ unu na-emekwa bụ ndị a: unu na-eme ka anya mmiri unu jupụta nʼebe ịchụ aja Onyenwe anyị. Unu na-akwa akwa, na-eti mkpu akwa nʼihi na ọ naghị elenye anya nʼonyinye unu, maọbụ jiri obi ụtọ nabata ha.
14 And ye seiden, For what cause? For the Lord witnesside bitwixe thee and the wijf of thi `puberte, that is, tyme of mariage, which thou dispisidist, and this is thi felowe, and wijf of thi couenaunt.
Unu na-asị “Nke a ọ bụ nʼihi gịnị?” Ọ bụ nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ onyeama nʼetiti gị na nwunye ị lụrụ nʼokorobịa gị, nʼihi na ị kwesighị ntụkwasị obi, ọ bụ ezie na ọ bụ nwanyị e jikọtara gị na ya, bụrụkwa nwunye ọgbụgba ndụ gị.
15 Whether oon made not, and residue of spirit is his? and what sekith oon, no but the seed of God? Therfore kepe ye youre spirit, and nyle thou dispise the wijf of thi yongthe;
Ọ bụ na ọ bụghị otu Chineke ahụ kere gị? Nʼanụ ahụ na nʼime mmụọ, unu bụ nke ya. Ma gịnị ka otu Chineke a chọrọ? Ka unu bụrụ ụmụ na-atụ ya egwu. Ya mere, jie mmụọ gị aka, ka ị gharakwa ịbụ onye na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nʼebe nwunye ị lụtara nʼokorobịa nọ.
16 whanne thou hatist hir, leue thou hir, seith the Lord God of Israel. Forsothe wickidnesse schal kyuere the closyng of hym, seith the Lord of oostis; kepe ye youre spirit, and nyle ye dispise.
“Akpọrọ m ịgba alụkwaghị m asị,” ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke nke Izrel sịrị, “a kpọkwara nwoke na-emeso nwunye ya mmeso nʼụzọ ihe ike asị.” Ọ bụ Onyenwe Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-ekwu. Ya mere, kpachapụrụnụ onwe unu anya, unu abụkwala ndị na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi.
17 Ye maden the Lord for to trauele in youre wordis, and ye seiden, Wherynne maden we hym for to trauele? In that that ye seien, Ech man that doith yuel, is good in the siyt of the Lord, and siche plesen to hym; ether certis where is the God of doom?
Unu esitela nʼoke okwu unu mee ka ike gwụ Onyenwe anyị. Ma unu na-ajụ, “Olee ụzọ anyị si mee ka ike gwụ ya?” Mgbe unu na-asị, “Ndị niile na-eme ihe ọjọọ dị mma nʼanya Onyenwe anyị. Ihe ha na-atọkwa ya ụtọ,” maọbụ na-asịkwa, “Ebee ka Chineke ahụ na-ekpe ikpe ziri ezi nọ?”
