Mose 5 11

1 “Ele be nàlɔ̃ Yehowa, wò Mawu la, eye nàwɔ eƒe sewo katã dzi.

Therefore you shall love the Lord your God, and shall observe his appointments, and his ordinances, and his commandments, and his judgments, always.

2 Miɖo to! Nyemele nu ƒom fifia na mia viwo, ame siwo mekpɔ eƒe tohehe na Egiptetɔwo alo eƒe gãnyenye kple ŋusẽ teƒe kpɔ o.

And you shall know this day; for [I speak] not to your children, who know not and have not seen the discipline of the Lord your God, and his wonderful works, and his strong hand, and his high arm,

3 Womenɔ afi ma kpɔ nukunu siwo wòwɔ le Egipte ɖe Farao kple eƒe anyigba blibo la ŋu o.

and his miracles, and his wonders, which he wrought in the midst of Egypt on Pharao king of Egypt, and all his land;

4 Womekpɔ nu si Mawu wɔ Egiptetɔwo ƒe aʋakɔwo, woƒe sɔwo kple tasiaɖamwo, ale si wònyrɔ wo ɖe Ƒu Dzĩ la me esi wodze mia yome kple ale si Yehowa na woƒe ŋusẽ ɖe mia ŋu nu ku va se ɖe egbeŋkeke sia dzi o!

and what he did to the host of the Egyptians, and to their chariots, and their cavalry, and their host; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overwhelm the face of them as they pursued after you, and the Lord destroyed them until this day;

5 Womekpɔ ale si Yehowa kpɔ mia dzi ɣe sia ɣi le ƒe siwo katã me mienɔ tsaglalã tsam le gbedzi va se ɖe esime mieɖo afi sia o.

and all the things which he did to you in the wilderness until you came into this place;

6 Womenɔ afi ma esime Datan kple Abiram, Eliab ƒe viŋutsuwo kple Ruben ƒe dzidzimeviwo wɔ nu vɔ̃, eye anyigba ke nu mi wo, woƒe aƒemetɔwo, agbadɔwo kple woƒe nuwo katã le Israelviwo katã ŋkume o!

and all the things that he did to Dathan and Abiron the sons of Eliab the son of Ruben, whom the earth opening her mouth swallowed up, and their houses, and their tents, and all their substance that was with them, in the midst of all Israel:

7 “Ke miawo la, miekpɔ Yehowa ƒe nukunu gã siawo teƒe,

for your eyes have seen all the mighty works of the Lord, which he wrought among you today.

8 eya ta wòle be miawɔ se siwo mele mia nam egbe la dzi pɛpɛpɛ ale be miate ŋu akpɔ ŋusẽ be miayi anyigba si dzi miele gege ge ɖo fifia, eye miaxɔe.

And you shall keep all his commandments, as many as I command you today, that you may live, and be multiplied, and that you may go in and inherit the land, into which you go across Jordan to inherit it:

9 Ne miewɔ seawo dzi la, mianɔ agbe didi, eye wòadze edzi na mi le anyigba si ŋugbe Yehowa do na mia fofowo kple miawo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo la dzi. Anyigba la nye anyigba wɔnuku aɖe si dzi ‘notsi kple anyitsi bɔ ɖo!’

that you may live long upon the land, which the Lord sware to your fathers to give to them, and to their seed after them, a land flowing with milk and honey.

10 Anyigba si dzi miage ɖo, eye miaxɔ la, mele abe Egiptenyigba, afi si mietso, afi si wòhiã le be miadze tɔʋu suewo ɖe miaƒe agblewo me, ana tsi nato wo me hena miaƒe agblemenukuwo ƒe wɔwɔ ene o.

For the land into which you go to inherit it, is not as the land of Egypt, whence you came out, whenever they sow the seed, and water it with their feet, as a garden of herbs:

11 Anyigba nyui aɖe si dzi towo kple balimewo le, eye tsi dzana le nyuie la wònye,

but the land into which you go to inherit it, is a land of mountains and plains; it shall drink water of the rain of heaven.

12 anyigba si Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ŋutɔ léa be na, eye eƒe ŋku le anyigba la ŋu ɣe sia ɣi tso ŋkeke yi ŋkeke le ƒe blibo la me!

A land which the Lord your God surveys continually, the eyes of the Lord your God are upon it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

13 “Ne miawɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe se siwo katã mele mia na ge egbe la dzi pɛpɛpɛ, eye ne mialɔ̃ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la kple miaƒe dzi blibo kple miaƒe luʋɔ blibo, eye miasubɔe la,

Now if you will indeed listen to all the commands which I charge you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul,

14 ekema agana adametsi kple kelemetsi nadza na mi ale be miate ŋu akpɔ bli fũu kple waintsetse geɖewo kple ami sɔ gbɔ.

then he shall give to your land the early and latter rain in its season, and you shall bring in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.

15 Ana lãnyiƒe damawo mi hena miaƒe lãwo, eye miawo ŋutɔ miakpɔ nu aɖu, aɖi ƒo nyuie.

And he shall give food in your fields to your cattle; and when you have eaten and are full,

16 “Ke mikpɔ nyuie be miaƒe dzi nagatrɔ le Yehowa yome be miasubɔ mawu bubuwo o.

take heed to yourself that your heart be not puffed up, and you transgress, and serve other gods, and worship them:

17 Ne miesubɔ mawu bubuwo la, Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe abi ɖe mia ŋu, eye wòatu dziƒo nu ale be tsi magadza o, eye agblemenukuwo mawɔ o. Ekema miatsrɔ̃ enumake le anyigba nyui si Yehowa na mi la dzi,

and the Lord be angry with you, and restrain the heaven; and there shall not be rain, and the earth shall not yield its fruit, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land, which the Lord has given you.

18 eya ta milé se siawo ɖe ta me. Mibla wo ɖe miaƒe asiwo ŋu ale be woanɔ ŋku dzi na mi, eye miawɔ wo dzi. Mibla wo ɖe miaƒe ŋgonu le miaƒe ŋkuwo dome.

And you shall store these words in your heart and in your soul, and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and it shall be fixed before your eyes.

19 Mifia wo mia viwo; miƒo nu na wo tso wo ŋu ne miele aƒe me, ne miele tsa ɖim, le anyimlɔɣi kple do ŋgɔ na ŋdinuɖuɖu!

And you shall teach them to your children, so as to speak about them when you sit in the house, and when you walk by the way, and when you sleep, and when you rise up.

20 Miŋlɔ wo ɖe miaƒe ʋɔtrutiwo ŋu le miaƒe aƒewo me kple miaƒe agbowo ŋu,

And you shall write them on the lintels of your houses, and on your gates;

21 ale be zi ale si dziŋgɔli anɔ anyi le mia tame ko la, mi kple mia viwo miakpɔ gome le agbe vivi si le mia lalam le anyigba si ŋugbe Yehowa do na mia fofowo la dzi.

that your days may be long, and the days of your children, upon the land which the Lord sware to your fathers to give to them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

22 “Ne miewɔ ɖe se siwo katã mede na mi dzi pɛpɛpɛ, ne mielɔ̃ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, ne miezɔ ɖe eƒe ɖoɖowo katã dzi, eye mielé ɖe eŋu la,

And it shall come to pass that if you will indeed listen to all these commands, which I charge you to observe this day, to love the Lord our God, and to walk in all his ways, and to cleave close to him;

23 ekema Yehowa anya dukɔwo katã ɖa le mia ŋgɔ, aleke gbegbe woasɔ gbɔ wu mi, eye woasẽ wu mi hã!

then the Lord shall cast out all these nations before you, and you shall inherit great nations and stronger than yourselves.

24 Afi sia afi si miaɖo afɔe la, anyigba la anye mia tɔ. Miaƒe liƒowo akeke tso Negeb ƒe anyigbeme ayi Lebanon, agatso Frat tɔsisi la ŋu, ayi Domeƒu la ŋu.

Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be your; from the wilderness and Antilibanus, and from the great river, the river Euphrates, even as far as the west sea shall be your coasts.

25 Ame aɖeke mate ŋu anɔ te ɖe mia nu o, elabena Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ade vɔvɔ̃ ameawo me ɖe mia ŋu do ŋgɔ na mi, afi sia afi si miayi abe ale si wòdo ŋugbe na mi ene tututu.

No one shall stand before you; and the Lord your God will put the fear of you and the dread of you on the face of all the land, on which you shall tread, as he told you.

26 “Kpɔ ɖa, metsɔ yayra kple fiƒode le mia ŋkume ɖom egbea be miatia.

Behold, I set before you this day the blessing and the curse;

27 Miaxɔ yayra ne miewɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe se siwo metsɔ le mia nam egbe la dzi,

the blessing, if you listen to the commands of the Lord your God, all that I command you this day;

28 ke fiƒode ava mia dzi ne miegbe seawo dzi wɔwɔ, eye miesubɔ dukɔ bubu siawo ƒe mawuwo.

and the curse, if you do not listen to the commands of the Lord our God, as many as I command you this day, and you wander from the way which I have commanded you, having gone to serve other gods, which you know not.

29 Ne Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la kplɔ mi yi anyigba la dzi be miaxɔe la, ekema woaɖe gbeƒã yayra le Gerizim to dzi, eye woaɖe gbeƒã fiƒode le Ebal to dzi!

And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land into which you go over to inherit it, then you shall put blessing on mount Garizin, and the curse upon mount Gaebal.

30 Gerizim kple Ebal wonye towo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣetoɖoƒe lɔƒo, afi si Kanaantɔwo le, le gbegbe si te ɖe Gilgal ŋu, afi si More ƒe ati gãwo le.

Behold! are not these beyond Jordan, behind, westward in the land of Chanaan, which lies westward near Golgol, by the high oak?

31 Mitso Yɔdan tɔsisi la, eye mianɔ anyigba si Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu le mia nam la dzi.

For you are passing over Jordan, to go in and inherit the land, which the Lord our God gives you to inherit always, and you shall dwell in it.

32 Ke ele na mi be miawɔ ɖe se siwo katã mele mia nam egbea la dzi.”

And you shall take heed to do all his ordinances, and these judgments, as many as I set before you today.
