< Mose 5 30 >
1 “Ne nu siawo katã, yayra kple fiƒode siwo mexlẽ na mi va mia dzi, miebu wo ŋuti esi miele dukɔ siwo me Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la nya mi ɖo ɖa la dome,
It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations, where the LORD your God has driven you,
2 eye mi kple mia viwo mietrɔ ɖe Yehowa miaƒe Mawu ŋu, hede asi eƒe se siwo katã mede na mi egbe la dzi wɔwɔ me kple dzi blibo kple luʋɔ blibo la,
and shall return to the LORD your God, and shall obey his voice according to all that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart, and with all your soul;
3 ekema Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la aɖe mi tso aboyome, ave mia nu, eye wòaƒo mia nu ƒu tso dukɔ siwo katã dome wòakaka mi ɖo la me.
that then the LORD your God will turn your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, where the LORD your God has scattered you.
4 Togbɔ be mianɔ anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke hã la, ayi aɖadi mi, eye wòagakplɔ mi va
If any of you are driven out to the farthest horizon, from there will the LORD your God gather you, and from there he will bring you back:
5 mia tɔgbuiwo ƒe anyigba dzi. Anyigba la agazu mia tɔ. Yehowa miaƒe Mawu agawɔ nyui na mi, eye wòagayra mi wu ale si wòyra mia tɔgbuiwo kpɔ gɔ̃ hã.
and the LORD your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
6 Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la akɔ mi kple mia viwo kple miaƒe tɔgbuiyɔviwo ƒe dziwo ŋuti, ale be miagalɔ̃e kple miaƒe dzi blibo kple luʋɔ blibo, eye Israel agagbɔ agbe.
The LORD your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your descendants, to love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la aɖe eƒe fiƒodewo katã ɖa le mia dzi, eye wòatrɔ wo akɔ ɖe ame siwo léa fu mi, eye wotia mia yome la dzi.
The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
8 Ke miawo la, ele na mi be miatrɔ va Yehowa gbɔ, eye miawɔ eƒe se siwo katã mede na mi egbe la dzi.
You shall return and obey the voice of the LORD, and do all his commandments which I command you this day.
9 Yehowa miaƒe Mawu ana nu sia nu si miawɔ la nadze edzi na mi, eye wòana mia viwo, miaƒe lãwo kple miaƒe agblemenukuwo nasɔ gbɔ fũu, elabena Yehowa agakpɔ dzidzɔ le mia ŋu, abe ale si wòkpɔe le mia tɔgbuiwo ŋu ene.
The LORD your God will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your womb, and in the fruit of your ground, and in the fruit of your livestock, for the LORD will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers;
10 Yehowa akpɔ dzidzɔ ne miawɔ se siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe Segbalẽ sia me la dzi, eye miatrɔ ɖe Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ŋu kple miaƒe dzi blibo kple miaƒe luʋɔ blibo ko.”
if you shall obey the voice of the LORD your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if you turn to the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
11 “Menye ɖe se siwo dem mele na mi egbea la dzi wɔwɔ mele miaƒe ŋutete me o,
For this commandment which I command you this day is not too difficult for you, nor is it far off.
12 elabena se siawo mele dziƒo ʋĩi ale gbegbe be miagblɔ be, ‘Ame kae ayi dziƒo’ atsɔ wo vɛ na mí, be míase eye miawɔ wo dzi o.
It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who will go up into heaven for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, that we may obey it?"
13 Menye ɖe wole atsiaƒu la godo, eye wodidi tso mia gbɔ ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke mate ŋu agblɔ wo me nyawo na mi o.
And it is not in the deep of the sea, that you should say, "Who will go down into the deep of the sea for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may obey it?"
14 Ke boŋ wote ɖe mia ŋu kpokploe, wole miaƒe dzi me kple miaƒe nu me, ale be miate ŋu awɔ wo dzi.
But the word is very near to you; it is in your mouth and in your heart and in your hand, so that you can do it.
15 “Kpɔ ɖa, metsɔ agbe kple dzɔgbenyui, ku kple dzɔgbevɔ̃e da ɖe mia ŋkume egbea. Nu siawo ku ɖe miaƒe seawo dzi wɔwɔ kple wo dzi mawɔmawɔ ŋu.
Look, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil.
16 Mede se na mi egbea be mialɔ̃ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la, miazɔ le eƒe mɔwo dzi, eye mialé eƒe sewo me ɖe asi, ale be mianɔ agbe, eye miazu dukɔ gã aɖe, ekema Yehowa ayra mi le anyigba si le mia tɔ zu ge la dzi.
If you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I command you this day to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, then you will live and multiply, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land where you are going to possess it.
17 Ke ne miaƒe dzi ato mɔ bubu, miawɔ nye seawo dzi o, ne woakplɔ mi atra mɔe, eye miasubɔ mawu bubuwo la,
But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18 ekema mele kpe ɖom edzi na mi be miatsrɔ̃ kokoko. Mianɔ agbe wòadidi, eye wòanyo na mi le anyigba si xɔ ge miala la dzi o.
I declare to you this day that you will certainly perish; you will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.
19 “Meyɔ dziƒo kple anyigba abe ɖasefowo ene ɖe mia ŋu be egbe la, metsɔ agbe kple ku, yayra kple fiƒode le mia ŋkume ɖom, eya ta anyo be miatia agbe ale be miawo kple mia viwo siaa mianɔ agbe!
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants;
20 Mitia be mialɔ̃ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la. Miaɖo toe, eye miaku ɖe eŋu, elabena eyae nye miaƒe agbe kple miaƒe agbemeŋkekewo ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ. Ekema miate ŋu anɔ dedie le anyigba si Yehowa do ŋugbe be yeatsɔ na mia tɔgbuiwo, Abraham, Isak kple Yakob la dzi.”
to love the LORD your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them."
