Mose 5 26

1 “Ne èva ɖo anyigba si Yehowa, wò Mawu la le na wò ge la dzi, eye nèxɔe hele edzi la,

Also when thou shalt come into the lande which the Lord thy God giueth thee for inheritance, and shalt possesse it, and dwell therein,

2 ele na wò be nàtsɔ wò agblemenuku gbãtɔ siwo nàkpɔ tso anyigba si Yehowa wò Mawu le na wò ge dzi la ƒe nuku gbãtɔwo le ƒe sia ƒe ƒe nuŋeŋe me na Yehowa le eƒe kɔkɔeƒe la.

Then shalt thou take of the first of all the fruite of the earth, and bring it out of the lande that the Lord thy God giueth thee, and put it in a basket, and goe vnto the place, which the Lord thy God shall chose to place his Name there.

3 Tsɔe de kusi me yi na nunɔla si le dɔ wɔm ɣe ma ɣi, eye nàgblɔ nɛ be, ‘Nunana siae nye nye emeʋuʋu ƒe dzesi be, Yehowa, nye Mawu kplɔm va ɖo anyigba si ŋugbe wòdo na tɔgbuinyewo la dzi.’

And thou shalt come vnto the Priest, that shall be in those dayes, and say vnto him, I acknowledge this day vnto the Lord thy God, that I am come vnto the countrey which the Lord sware vnto our fathers for to giue vs.

4 Nunɔla la axɔ kusi la le asiwò ada ɖe Yehowa wò Mawu ƒe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.

Then the Priest shall take the basket out of thine hand, and set it downe before the altar of the Lord thy God.

5 Esia megbe la, àgblɔ le Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe ŋkume be, ‘Tɔgbuinyewo nye Arameatɔwo. Woʋu yi Egipte le sitsoƒedidi ta. Wonye ame ʋɛ aɖewo ko, ke wova zu dukɔ gã aɖe le Egipte.

And thou shalt answere and say before the Lord thy God, A Syrian was my father, who being ready to perish for hunger, went downe into Egypt, and soiourned there with a small company, and grew there vnto a nation great, mightie and full of people.

6 Egiptetɔwo wɔ fu mí, wɔ mí kluviwoe, eye wode dɔ sesẽwo asi na mí.

And the Egyptians vexed vs, and troubled vs, and laded vs with cruell bondage.

7 Míedo ɣli, ƒo koko na Yehowa, mía fofowo ƒe Mawu. Ese míaƒe gbe, eye wòkpɔ míaƒe fukpekpe, dɔwɔwɔ kple ale si wote mí ɖe toe.

But when we cried vnto the Lord God of our fathers, the Lord heard our voyce, and looked on our aduersitie, and on our labour, and on our oppression.

8 Etsɔ nukunu gãwo kple asi sesẽ ɖe mí tso Egipte. Esi wòwɔ nukunu gã dziŋɔwo le Egiptetɔwo ŋkume la,

And the Lord brought vs out of Egypt in a mightie hande, and a stretched out arme, with great terriblenesse, both in signes and wonders.

9 ekplɔ mí tso teƒe sia, eye wòtsɔ anyigba sia, si dzi “notsi kple anyitsi bɔ ɖo” la na mí.

And he hath brought vs into this place, and hath giuen vs this land, euen a lande that floweth with milke and hony.

10 Azɔ la, O! Yehowa, kpɔ ɖa, metsɔ nye agblemenuku gbãtɔ siwo mekpɔ tso anyigba si nènam me la ƒe kpɔɖeŋu vɛ na wò.’ Ekema nàtsɔ nukuawo ada ɖe Yehowa, wò Mawu la ŋkume, eye nàde ta agu nɛ.

And now, lo, I haue brought ye first fruites of the land which thou, O Lord, hast giuen me, and thou shalt set it before the Lord thy God, and worship before the Lord thy God:

11 Le esia megbe la, yi nàɖo kplɔ̃ kple nu nyui siwo katã Yehowa, wò Mawu la na wò. Na wò ƒometɔwo kple Levitɔwo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome la nakpɔ gome kpli wò le dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ la me.

And thou shalt reioyce in all the good things which the Lord thy God hath giuen vnto thee and to thine houshold, thou and the Leuite, and the stranger that is among you.

12 “Ƒe etɔ̃lia ɖe sia ɖe nye ƒe tɔxɛ na nuwo ƒe ewolia nana. Le ƒe ma me la, ele be nàtsɔ wò nuwo ƒe ewolia katã ana Levitɔwo, amedzrowo, tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo, ale be woawo hã naɖu nu nyuie.

When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tythes of thine increase, the thirde yeere, which is the yeere of tithing, and hast giuen it vnto the Leuite, to the stranger, to the fatherlesse, and to the widowe, that they may eate within thy gates, and be satisfied,

13 Ekema nàgblɔ le Yehowa, wò Mawu la ŋkume be, ‘Metsɔ nye nuwo ƒe ewolia katã na Levitɔwo, amedzrowo, tsyɔ̃eviwo kple ahosiwo abe ale si nèɖo nam ene. Nyemeda le wò se aɖeke dzi loo alo ŋlɔ ɖeke be o.

Then thou shalt say before the Lord thy God, I haue brought the halowed thing out of mine house, and also haue giuen it vnto the Leuites and to the strangers, to the fatherlesse, and to the widow, according to all thy comandements which thou hast commanded me: I haue transgressed none of thy comandements, nor forgotten them.

14 Nyemeka asi nu ewolia ƒe ɖeka ŋu esi nye ŋuti mekɔ o, le kpɔɖeŋu me, esi menɔ fu nyim o, eye nyemetsɔ ɖeke na ame kukuwo hã o. Meɖo to Yehowa, nye Mawu la, eye mewɔ nu sia nu si nèɖo nam.

I haue not eaten therof in my mourning, nor suffred ought to perish through vncleannes, nor giuen ought thereof for the dead, but haue hearkened vnto the voyce of the Lord my God: I haue done after al that thou hast comaded me.

15 Kpɔ mí ɖa tso wò nɔƒe kɔkɔe la le dziƒo, eye nàyra Israelviwo kple anyigba si nètsɔ na mí abe ale si nèdo ŋugbe na mía tɔgbuiwo ene. Wɔe wòanye anyigba si dzi notsi kple anyitsi bɔ ɖo.’”

Looke downe from thine holy habitation, euen from heauen, and blesse thy people Israel, and the lande which thou hast giuen vs (as thou swarest vnto our fathers) the land that floweth with milke and hony.

16 “Ele be nàwɔ se kple ɖoɖo siwo katã Yehowa, wò Mawu la le nàwom egbe la dzi kple dzi wò blibo.

This day the Lord thy God doeth command thee to do these ordinances, and lawes: keepe them therefore, and do them with al thine heart, and with all thy soule.

17 Èʋu eme egbe be Yehowae nye wò Mawu, eye nèdo ŋugbe egbe be, yeawɔ eƒe sewo kple ɖoɖowo dzi, eye yeawɔ nu sia nu si wògblɔ na ye be yeawɔ.

Thou hast set vp the Lord this day to be thy God, and to walke in his wayes, and to keepe his ordinances, and his commandements, and his lawes, and to hearken vnto his voyce.

18 Yehowa hã ʋu eme egbe be ànye yeƒe dukɔ abe ale si wòdo ŋugbe ene, eye wòbia tso asiwò be nàwɔ yeƒe sewo katã dzi.

And the Lord hath set thee vp this day, to be a precious people vnto him (as hee hath promised thee) and that thou shouldest keepe all his commandements,

19 Ne èwɔ alea la, awɔ wò dukɔ gã wu dukɔ bubu ɖe sia ɖe, eye wòana kafukafu, bubu kple ŋkɔxɔxɔ wò. Ke hafi bubu kple ŋkɔ sia naɖo ŋuwò la, ele be nànye dukɔ kɔkɔe na Yehowa, wò Mawu la abe ale si wòdi tso asiwò ene.”

And to make thee high aboue al nations (which he hath made) in praise, and in name, and in glory, and that thou shouldest be an holy people vnto the Lord thy God, as he hath said.
