Leviticus 26
1 'Ye do not make to yourselves idols; and graven image or standing image ye do not set up to yourselves; and a stone of imagery ye do not put in your land, to bow yourselves to it; for I [am] Jehovah your God.
“‘Legba aɖeke meganɔ mia si o. Migasubɔ aklamakpakpɛwo, aƒeliwo alo kpe kpakpɛwo gbeɖegbeɖe o, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu.
2 'My sabbaths ye do keep, and My sanctuary ye do reverence; I [am] Jehovah.
“‘Miwɔ nye Dzudzɔgbe ƒe sewo dzi, eye miade bubu nye Agbadɔ ŋu, elabena nyee nye Yehowa.
3 'If in My statutes ye walk, and My commands ye keep, and have done them,
“‘Ne miewɔ nye seawo katã dzi la,
4 then I have given your rains in their season, and the land hath given her produce, and the tree of the field doth give its fruit;
mana tsi nadza na mi le tsidzaɣi, anyigba ana eƒe nuɖuɖu, eye gbemetiwo atse woƒe kutsetsewo.
5 and reached to you hath the threshing, the gathering, and the gathering doth reach the sowing -[time]; and ye have eaten your bread to satiety, and have dwelt confidently in your land.
Miaƒe luƒoƒo ayi edzi va se ɖe wainxaɣi, wainxaɣi ayi edzi va se ɖe nuƒãɣi, miaɖu nu siwo katã ahiã mi, eye mianɔ miaƒe anyigba dzi le dedinɔnɔ me,
6 'And I have given peace in the land, and ye have lain down, and there is none causing trembling; and I have caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, and the sword doth not pass over into your land.
elabena mana ŋutifafa mi. Miamlɔ anyi, adɔ alɔ̃ le dziɖeɖi me. Manya lã wɔadãwo ɖa le mia ŋgɔ.
7 'And ye have pursued your enemies, and they have fallen before you by the sword;
Mianya miaƒe futɔwo ɖe du nu; woaku ɖe miaƒe yi nu.
8 and five of you have pursued a hundred, and a hundred of you do pursue a myriad; and your enemies have fallen before you by the sword.
Mia dometɔ atɔ̃ anya ame alafa ɖeka ɖe du nu, eye mia dometɔ alafa ɖeka anya ame akpe ewo! Miaɖu miaƒe futɔwo katã dzi.
9 'And I have turned unto you, and have made you fruitful, and have multiplied you, and have established My covenant with you;
Makpɔ mia dzi, mana miadzi asɔ gbɔ, eye mawɔ nu si mebla kpli mi la dzi.
10 and ye have eaten old [store], and the old because of the new ye bring out.
Miaƒe nukuwo asɔ gbɔ na mi wu ale si miehiã ale gbegbe be miaganya nu si miawɔ kple esi atsi anyi o, eye mianya ɣeyiɣi si nuŋeɣi agaɖo o!
11 'And I have given My tabernacle in your midst, and My soul doth not loathe you;
Manɔ mia dome; mianye ŋunyɔnu nam o.
12 and I have walked habitually in your midst, and have become your God, and ye — ye are become My people;
Mazɔ le mia dome, manye miaƒe Mawu, eye miawo mianye nye amewo,
13 I [am] Jehovah your God, who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, from being their servants; and I break the bars of your yoke, and cause you to go erect.
elabena nyee nye Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ mi tso Egiptenyigba dzi, ale be miaganye kluviwo azɔ o. Meɖe kɔkuti le kɔ dzi na mi, ale be miazɔ abe ablɔɖemewo kple bubumewo ene.’”
14 'And if ye do not hearken to Me, and do not all these commands;
“Ke ne miaɖo tom alo awɔ nye seawo dzi o,
15 and if at My statutes ye kick, and if My judgments your soul loathe, so as not to do all My commands — to your breaking My covenant —
ke boŋ miagbe nye ɖoɖowo la,
16 I also do this to you, and I have appointed over you trouble, the consumption, and the burning fever, consuming eyes, and causing pain of soul; and your seed in vain ye have sowed, and your enemies have eaten it;
ekema nu si mawɔ mie nye: mado ŋɔdzi na mi kple asrã sesẽtɔ. Dɔléle aɖe fu na miaƒe ŋkuwo, eye gbɔdzɔgbɔdzɔ age ɖe miaƒe agbenɔnɔ me. Dzodzroe miaƒã miaƒe nukuwo, elabena miaƒe futɔwoe aɖu wo.
17 and I have set My face against you, and ye have been smitten before your enemies; and those hating you have ruled over you, and ye have fled, and there is none pursuing you.
“Maɖe ŋku atɔ mi; miasi le miaƒe futɔwo nu. Ame siwo lé fu mi la aɖu mia dzi. Gawu la, miade asi sisi me, togbɔ be ame aɖeke manɔ mia nyam o hã!
18 'And if unto these ye hearken not to Me, — then I have added to chastise you seven times for your sins;
“Ne miegagbe toɖoɖom kokoko la, mahe to na mi vevie zi adre ɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
19 and I have broken the pride of your strength, and have made your heavens as iron, and your earth as brass;
Maɖe miaƒe ŋusẽ si dzi miedana ɖo la dzi, mana dziƒo nanɔ na mi abe gayibɔ ene, eye anyigba nanɔ na mi abe akɔbli ene.
20 and consumed hath been your strength in vain, and your land doth not give her produce, and the tree of the land doth not give its fruit.
Miadagba dzodzro, elabena miaƒe anyigba mana miaƒe nukuwo naʋã o, eye miaƒe kutsetsetiwo matse ku o.
21 'And if ye walk with Me [in] opposition, and are not willing to hearken to Me, then I have added to you a plague seven times, according to your sins,
“Ne miagaɖo tom ɣe ma ɣi hã o la, mana dɔvɔ̃ bubu adre nava mia dzi ɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
22 and sent against you the beast of the field, and it hath bereaved you; and I have cut off your cattle, and have made you few, and your ways have been desolate.
Maɖo lã wɔadãwo ɖa be woawu mia viwo, avuvu miaƒe aƒemelãwo, aɖe miaƒe xexlẽme dzi akpɔtɔ, ale be amewo avɔ le miaƒe mɔwo dzi.
23 'And if by these ye are not instructed by Me, and have walked with Me [in] opposition,
“Eye ne nu siawo gɔ̃ hã mana miatrɔ dzi me o, ke boŋ miagayi tsitretsitsi ɖe nye didiwo ŋu dzi la,
24 then I have walked — I also — with you in opposition, and have smitten you, even I, seven times for your sins;
ekema nye hã matsi tsitre ɖe miaƒe didiwo ŋu, eye nye ŋutɔ gɔ̃ hã mafia fu mi zi adre ɖe miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
25 and I have brought in on you a sword, executing the vengeance of a covenant; and ye have been gathered unto your cities, and I have sent pestilence into your midst, and ye have been given into the hand of an enemy.
Mabia hlɔ̃ mi le ale si miegbe nye nubabla dzi wɔwɔ ta, to aʋawɔwɔ hehe va mia dzi me. Miasi ayi miaƒe duwo me, eye maɖo dɔvɔ̃ ɖe mia dome le afi ma. Miaƒe futɔwo aɖu mia dzi.
26 'In My breaking to you the staff of bread, then ten women have baked your bread in one oven, and have given back your bread by weight; and ye have eaten, and are not satisfied.
Magblẽ miaƒe nuɖuɖu ƒe dzɔtsoƒe me, ale be abolokpo ɖeka pɛ ame abolo na ƒome ewo. Ne mieɖu nu sue si aka mia si vɔ la, dɔ agawu mi kokoko.
27 'And if for this ye hearken not to Me, and have walked with Me in opposition,
“Ne miagagbe toɖoɖom kple nye sewo dzi wɔwɔ kokoko la,
28 then I have walked with you in the fury of opposition, and have chastised you, even I, seven times for your sins.
ekema mana nye dɔmedzoe sesẽ la nabi ɖe mia ŋu, eye mana tohehe si dzi ŋɔ zi adre wu tsãtɔwo la nava mia dzi le miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
29 'And ye have eaten the flesh of your sons; even flesh of your daughters ye do eat.
Miaɖu miawo ŋutɔ mia viŋutsuwo kple mia vinyɔnuwo,
30 And I have destroyed your high places, and cut down your images, and have put your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and My soul hath loathed you;
makaka vɔsamlekpui siwo le towo dzi, afi si miedea ta agu na legbawo le. Magbã miaƒe dzudzɔdovɔsamlekpuiwo, miaƒe ame kukuwo aƒaƒã ɖe miaƒe legbawo dome, eye mianyɔ ŋu nam.
31 and I have made your cities a waste, and have made desolate your sanctuaries, and I smell not at your sweet fragrances;
Mana miaƒe du gãwo nazu aƒedowo, magblẽ miaƒe mawusubɔƒewo, eye miaƒe dzudzɔdovɔsamlekpuiwo magadze ŋunye o.
32 and I have made desolate the land, and your enemies, who are dwelling in it, have been astonished at it.
Ɛ̃, mana miaƒe anyigba nazu gbegbe, miaƒe futɔwo axɔ miaƒe anyigba, eye woƒe nu aku le nu si mewɔ mi la ta.
33 And you I scatter among nations, and have drawn out after you a sword, and your land hath been a desolation, and your cities are a waste.
“Makaka mi ɖe dukɔwo dome, eye ne mieyina la, mana aʋa nasi mi. Miaƒe anyigba azu gbegbe, eye miaƒe du gãwo agbã.
34 'Then doth the land enjoy its sabbaths — all the days of the desolation, and ye in the land of your enemies — then doth the land rest, and hath enjoyed its sabbaths;
Ekema anyigba la akpɔ gbɔdzɔe le ɣeyiɣi siwo katã wònye gbegbe la me, esime miele miaƒe futɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi, ekema anyigba la adzudzɔ, eye wòakpɔ eƒe gbɔdzɔe.
35 all the days of the desolation it resteth that which it hath not rested in your sabbaths in your dwelling on it.
Le ɣeyiɣi siwo katã me wònye gbegbe la, anyigba la akpɔ dzudzɔ si mekpɔ le dzudzɔgbe siwo mienɔ edzi la kpɔ o.
36 'And those who are left of you — I have also brought a faintness into their heart in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a leaf driven away hath pursued them, and they have fled — flight from a sword — and they have fallen, and there is none pursuing.
“Mana woaɖe aboyo ame siwo aganɔ agbe la ayi didiƒenyigbawo dzi abe aʋaléleawo kple kluviwo ene. Woanɔ afi ma kple dzodzo nyanyanya ɣe sia ɣi. Ne ya ƒo aŋugba la, eƒe gbeɖiɖi ana woasi abe ame aɖee le wo nyam kple yi ene. Woadze anyi le esime ame aɖeke mele wo nyam o.
37 And they have stumbled one on another, as from the face of a sword, and there is none pursuing, and ye have no standing before your enemies,
Ɛ̃, togbɔ be ame aɖeke mele wo nyam o hã la, woasi, anɔ wo nɔewo dzi dzem abe ame siwo le sisim le aʋagbedzi, eye womate ŋu anɔ te ɖe futɔwo nu o ene.
38 and ye have perished among the nations, and the land of your enemies hath consumed you.
Miatsrɔ̃ le dukɔwo dome, eye miaƒe futɔwo awu mi.
39 'And those who are left of you — they consume away in their iniquity, in the lands of your enemies; and also in the iniquities of their fathers, with them they consume away.
Ame siwo atsi agbe la atsi asi le futɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo kple nu vɔ̃ siwo wo fofowo wɔ la ta.
40 'And — they have confessed their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they have trespassed against Me, and also, that they have walked with Me, in opposition,
“Ke ne woaʋu woawo ŋutɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃wo kple wo fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo me, woƒe tsitretsitsi ɖe ŋunye kple woƒe fulélem si
41 also I walk to them in opposition, and have brought them into the land of their enemies — or then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and then they accept the punishment of their iniquity, —
na meɖo wo ɖe woƒe futɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi me la, ekema ne woƒe dzi kuatriwo bɔbɔ wo ɖokui, eye woxe fe ɖe woƒe nu vɔ̃ ta la,
42 then I have remembered My covenant [with] Jacob, and also My covenant [with] Isaac, and also My covenant [with] Abraham I remember, and the land I remember.
magaɖo ŋku ŋugbe siwo medo na Abraham, Isak kple Yakob la dzi. Maɖo ŋku anyigba la kple ale si amewo gblẽe ɖi la dzi,
43 'And — the land is left of them, and doth enjoy its sabbaths, in the desolation without them, and they accept the punishment of their iniquity, because, even because, against My judgments they have kicked, and My statutes hath their soul loathed,
elabena ele be anyigba la nagbɔ ɖe eme le esime amewo dzo le edzi. Ekema, mlɔeba la, woaxɔ woƒe tohehe le nye seawo dzi mawɔmawɔ kple woƒe vlododo nye dziɖuɖu ta.
44 and also even this, in their being in the land of their enemies, I have not rejected them, nor have I loathed them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I [am] Jehovah their God; —
Ke togbɔ be wowɔ nu siawo katã hã la, nyematsrɔ̃ wo kple nubabla si mewɔ kpli wo la ɖikaa o, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu.
45 then I have remembered for them the covenant of the ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations to become their God; I [am] Jehovah.'
Le woawo ta la, maɖo ŋku nye ŋugbedodowo na wo tɔgbuiwo dzi be manye woƒe Mawu, elabena nyee kplɔ wo tɔgbuiwo tso Egipte le esime dukɔwo katã ƒe nu ku esi wonɔ nu siwo nɔ dzɔdzɔm la kpɔm. Nyee nye Yehowa!”
46 These [are] the statutes, and the judgments, and the laws, which Jehovah hath given between Him and the sons of Israel, in mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
Esiawoe nye se kple ɖoɖo siwo Yehowa na Israelviwo to Mose dzi le Sinai to la dzi.
