Mose 5 29
1 Mose gbugbɔ nubabla si Yehowa wɔ kple Israelviwo le Horeb to la dzi la gblɔ le Moab gbedzi.
These are the words of the covenant which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab: beside that covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
2 Mose yɔ Israelviwo katã ƒo ƒu, eye wògblɔ na wo be: Miawo ŋutɔ miekpɔ nu siwo katã Yehowa wɔ Farao, eŋumewo kple anyigba blibo la le Egipte.
And Moses called all Israel, and said to them: You have seen all the things that the Lord did before you in the land of Egypt to Pharao, and to all his servants, and to his whole land.
3 Miawo ŋutɔ miaƒe ŋkuwo kpɔ dɔvɔ̃wo, dzesi wɔnukuwo kple nukunu bubuawo,
The great temptations, which thy eyes have seen, those mighty signs and wonders,
4 gake va se ɖe egbe la, Yehowa mena dzi nyanu mi be miase nu gɔme o, mena ŋku mi be miakpɔ nu o, eye mena to mi be miase nu o!
And the Lord hath not given you a heart to understand, and eyes to see, and ears that may hear, unto this present day.
5 Ekplɔ mi to gbedzi ƒe blaene sɔŋ, gake miaƒe awuwo medo xoxo o, eye miaƒe tokotawo te menyi o!
He hath brought you forty years through the desert: your garments are not worn out, neither are the shoes of your feet consumed with age.
6 Nu si ta Yehowa mena mietɔ ɖe teƒe ɖeka be miaƒã bli na abolowɔwɔ alo miado waintiwo hena wain kple aha sesẽ o lae nye be miadze sii be Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu lae le mia dzi kpɔm.
You have not eaten bread, nor have you drunk wine or strong drink: that you might know that I am the Lord your God.
7 Esi míeva ɖo afi sia la, Fia Sixɔn tso Hesbon kple Fia Ɔg tso Basan kpe aʋa kpli mí, ke míeɖu wo dzi;
And you came to this place: sand Sehon king of Hesebon, and Og king of Basan, came out against us to fight. And we slew them.
8 míexɔ woƒe anyigba, eye míetsɔe na Ruben ƒe viwo kple Gad ƒe viwo kple Manase ƒe viwo ƒe afã abe woƒe domenyinu ene,
And took their land, and delivered it for a possession to Ruben and Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses.
9 eya ta milé nubabla sia me nyawo me ɖe asi, eye miawɔ wo dzi be, nu sia nu si miawɔ la nadze edzi na mi.
Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and fulfill them: that you may understand all that you do.
10 Mi katã, miele tsitre ɖe Yehowa miaƒe Mawu ƒe ŋkume egbe. Miaƒe kplɔlawo, ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo, ametsitsiawo kple Israel ƒe ŋutsuwo katã,
You all stand this day before the Lord your God, your princes, and tribes, and ancients, and doctors, all the people of Israel,
11 vidzĩwo, mia srɔ̃wo, miaƒe amedzrowo, nakefɔlawo kple tsikulawo katã mietsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ŋkume egbea.
Your children and your wives, and the stranger that abideth with thee in the camp, besides the hewers of wood, and them that bring water:
12 Miele tsitre ɖe afi sia be miawɔ nubabla kple Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, eye miage ɖe nubabla si wòle wɔwɔm kpli mi egbe la me.
That thou mayst pass in the covenant of the Lord thy God, and in the oath which this day the Lord thy God maketh with thee.
13 Edi be yeali ke mi egbe abe yeƒe dukɔ ene, eye yeaka ɖe edzi na mi be yee nye miaƒe Mawu, abe ale si wòdo ŋugbee na mia tɔgbuiwo, Abraham, Isak kple Yakob ene.
That he may raise thee up a people to himself, and he may be thy God as he hath spoken to thee, and as he swore to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 Mele nubabla sia wɔm kpli mi, ame siwo le tsitre ɖe afi sia egbe la ɖeɖe ko o,
Neither with you only do I make this covenant, and confirm these oaths,
15 ke boŋ ele ewɔm kple Israel ƒe dzidzimevi siwo ava dzɔ hã.
But with all that are present and that are absent.
16 Eme kɔ ƒãa be, mieɖo ŋku ale si mienɔ Egiptenyigba dzi, ale si miedzoe kple ale si mieto futɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi la dzi.
For you know how we dwelt in the land of Egypt, and how we have passed through the midst of nations, and passing through them,
17 Miekpɔ woƒe mawu ɖigbɔ̃ siwo wowɔ kple ati, kpe, klosalo kple sika.
You have seen their abominations and filth, that is to say, their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which they worshipped.
18 Gbe si gbe mia dometɔ aɖe, ŋutsu alo nyɔnu, ƒome aɖe alo Israel ƒe to aɖe atrɔ tso Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la gbɔ be yeasubɔ dukɔ bubuawo ƒe mawu siawo la, gbe ma gbe la, ame ma anɔ abe ati aɖe si ƒe ke ave ɖihaɖiha, eye wòanɔ abe aɖi ene.
Lest perhaps there should be among you a man or a woman, a family or a tribe, whose heart is turned away this day from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of those nations: and there should be among you a root bringing forth gall and bitterness.
19 Ne ame sia tɔgbi se atamkaka sia, evɔ wòhegblɔ yayranyawo kɔ ɖe eɖokui dzi, eye wòbu le eƒe susu me be, “Manɔ dedie togbɔ be melé nye mɔ tsɔ hã” la, esia ahe gbegblẽ ava anyigba si wode tsii kple esi le ƒuƒui la siaa dzi.
And when he shall hear the words of this oath, he should bless himself in his heart saying: I shall have peace, and will walk on in the naughtiness of my heart: and the drunken may consume the thirsty,
20 Yehowa makpɔ nublanui na ame o! Eƒe dɔmedzoe kple ŋuʋaʋã abi dzo ɖe ame ma ŋu, eye fiƒode siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me la adze ame ma dzi, aɖi eŋu, eye Yehowa atutu eƒe ŋkɔ ɖa le dziƒoa te.
And the Lord should not forgive him: but his wrath and jealousy against that man should be exceedingly enkindled at that time, and all the curses that are written in this volume should light upon him: and the Lord should blot out his name from under heaven,
21 Yehowa aɖe ame ma ɖe vovo tso Israelviwo ƒe towo katã gbɔ, eye wòakɔ Segbalẽ sia me fiƒode ɖe ame siwo katã mazɔ ɖe nubabla sia nu o la dzi.
And utterly destroy him out of all the tribes of Israel, according to the curses that are contained in the book of this law and covenant:
22 Ekema mia viwo kple miaƒe dzidzimevi siwo ava dzɔ kple amedzro siwo atso didiƒewo la akpɔ ale si Yehowa ana anyigba la maganyo nukuwo o kple dɔléle siwo wòaɖo ɖe anyigba la dzi.
And the following generation shall say, and the children that shall be born hereafter, and the strangers that shall come from afar, seeing the plagues of that land and the evils wherewith the Lord hath afflicted it,
23 Woakpɔe be anyigba blibo la trɔ zu aŋɔ kple dze kple anyigba fiafia si dzi nuku mele o, eye ati aɖeke memie ɖe edzi hã o, abe Sodom kple Gomora kple Adma kple Zeboyim, du siwo Yehowa tsrɔ̃ le eƒe dɔmedzoe me ene.
Burning it with brimstone, and the heat of salt, so that it cannot be sown any more, nor any green thing grow therein, after the example of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha, Adama and Seboim, which the Lord destroyed in his wrath and indignation:
24 Amewo abia be, “Nu ka ta Yehowa wɔ anyigba sia alea ɖo? Nu ka ta wòdo dɔmedzoe nenema gbegbe ɖo?”
And all the nations shall say: Why hath the Lord done thus to this land? what meaneth this exceeding great heat of his wrath?
25 Woagblɔ na wo be, “Elabena anyigba la dzi tɔwo gbe nubabla si Yehowa, woƒe tɔgbuiwo ƒe Mawu la wɔ kpli wo esi wòkplɔ wo dzoe le Egipte la dzi wɔwɔ,
And they shall answer: Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord, which he made with their fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt:
26 elabena wosubɔ mawu bubuwo, eye nuwɔna sia tsi tsitre ɖe Mawu ƒe se la ŋu.
And they have served strange gods, and adored them, whom they knew not, and for whom they had not been assigned:
27 Eya ta Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe bi ɖe anyigba sia ŋu sesĩe nenema, ale eƒe fiƒode siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me la ɖi wo ŋu.
Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this volume:
28 Yehowa ɖe wo ɖa kple dɔmedzoe tso woƒe anyigba dzi, eye wòtsɔ wo ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba bubu dzi, afi si wole va se ɖe egbe.”
And he hath cast them out of their land, in anger and in wrath, and in very great indignation, and hath thrown them into a strange land, as it is seen this day.
29 Nu ɣaɣlawo nye Yehowa, mía Mawu tɔ; ke nu siwo wòɖe fia mí la nye míawo kple mía viwo tɔ tegbee, ale be míawɔ se sia me nyawo katã dzi.
Secret things to the Lord our God: things that are manifest, to us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
