Mose 5 5
1 Mose gaƒo nu na Israelviwo gblɔ be, Miɖo to nyuie miase se siwo katã Yehowa de na mi. Misrɔ̃ wo, eye miakpɔ egbɔ be yewowɔ wo dzi!
AND Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.
2 Yehowa mía Mawu la bla nu kpli mi le Horeb to la gbɔ.
The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Mebla nu kple mia tɔgbuiwo o, ke boŋ kple mi ame siwo le agbe, le afi sia fifia
The Lord made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
4 Eƒo nu kpli mi ŋkume kple ŋkume tso dzo bibi la titina le afi ma, le to la gbɔ.
The Lord talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire,
5 Menɔ miawo kple Yehowa dome, elabena mienɔ vɔvɔ̃m, eye mieyi egbɔ le to la dzi o. Eƒo nu nam, eye metsɔ eƒe seawo na mi. Nya siwo wògblɔ la woe nye:
(I stood between the Lord and you at that time, to shew you the word of the Lord: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount; ) saying,
6 “Nyee nye Yehowa, wò Mawu, si kplɔ wò tso kluvinyenye me le Egiptenyigba dzi.
I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
7 “Mègasubɔ mawu bubu aɖeke kpe ɖe ŋunye o.
Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
8 Mègawɔ legba aɖeke na ɖokuiwò o, eɖanye nu siwo le dziƒo alo anyigba dzi afii loo, alo tɔ me la ƒe nɔnɔme o.
Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:
9 Mègade ta agu na wo o, eye mègasubɔ wo le mɔ aɖeke nu o, elabena nye Yehowa, wò Mawu la, Mawu ʋãŋue menye. Mehea to na ɖevi siwo léa fum la ɖe wo fofowo ƒe vodadawo teƒe va se ɖe dzidzime etɔ̃lia kple enelia dzi.
Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
10 Ke meɖea nye lɔlɔ̃ fiaa dzidzime akpe nane siwo lɔ̃am, eye wowɔa nye seawo dzi.
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Mègayɔ Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ dzodzro o, elabena Yehowa magbe tohehe na ame si yɔ eƒe ŋkɔ dzodzro la o.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12 Wɔ ɖe Dzudzɔgbe la dzi, eye nàwɔe kɔkɔe abe ale si Yehowa, wò Mawu la de se na wòe ene.
Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Wɔ wò dɔwo katã le ŋkeke ade me,
Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
14 ke ŋkeke adrelia nye Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe Dzudzɔgbe. Mègawɔ dɔ aɖeke le edzi o. Wò aƒemetɔ aɖeke hã mekpɔ mɔ awɔ dɔ aɖeke gbe ma gbe o, eɖanye viwò ŋutsuwo, viwò nyɔnuwo, wò dɔlaŋutsu, wò dɔlanyɔnu, wò nyiwo, wò tedziwo alo wò lãwo katã o. Ele be amedzro siwo le mia dome gɔ̃ hã nawɔ se sia dzi. Ele be ame sia ame nadzudzɔ abe ale si wò ŋutɔ nàwɔ ene.
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
15 Ɖo ŋku edzi be, ènye kluvi le Egipte kpɔ, eye Yehowa, wò Mawu la kplɔ wò do goe tso teƒe ma kple asi sesẽ kple abɔ si wòdo ɖe dzi. Le esia ta Yehowa, wò Mawu la de se na wò be nàɖo ŋku Dzudzɔgbe la dzi.
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16 Bu fofowò kple dawò. Ɖo ŋku edzi be esiae nye Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe se. Ne èwɔ ɖe edzi la, ànɔ agbe didi, eye wòadze edzi na wò le anyigba si Yehowa, wò Mawu la le nawòm la dzi.
Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
17 Mègawu ame o.
Thou shalt not kill.
18 Mègawɔ ahasi o.
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Mègafi fi o.
Neither shalt thou steal.
20 Mègaɖi aʋatsoɖase le hawòvi ŋuti o.
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21 Mègabia ŋu hawòvi ɖe srɔ̃a ta alo ɖe eƒe aƒe, anyigba, dɔlaŋutsu, dɔlanyɔnu, nyiwo, tedziwo loo, alo nu sia nu si nye etɔ la ta o.”
Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour’s wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour’s house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
22 Yehowa de se siawo na mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe tso dzo bibi la titina esime lilikpo la kple viviti tsiɖitsiɖi ƒo xlã Sinai to la, se mawo ko wòde na mi ɣe ma ɣi, eye megatsɔ bubu aɖeke kpee o. Eŋlɔ wo ɖe kpe kpakpa eve dzi hetsɔ nam.
These words the Lord spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.
23 Ke esi miese gbe sesẽ la tso viviti la me, eye miekpɔ dzo bibi dziŋɔ la le to la tame la, miaƒe toawo ƒe kplɔlawo katã va gbɔnye,
And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, (for the mountain did burn with fire, ) that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24 eye woɖe kuku be, “Egbe la, Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ɖe eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe kple gãnyenye fia mí. Míese eƒe gbe gɔ̃ hã tso dzo bibi la titina. Azɔ la, míenya be ame ate ŋu aƒo nu kple Mawu, eye maku o.
And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth.
25 Ke míeka ɖe edzi be míaku ne Yehowa míaƒe Mawu gaƒo nu na mí azɔ. Dzo bibi dziŋɔ sia atsrɔ̃ mí.
Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, then we shall die.
26 Ame kae ate ŋu ase Mawu gbagbe la ƒe gbe tso dzo bibi la titina abe ale si míawo míesee ene, eye wòatsi agbe?
For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?
27 Yi nàɖo to nya siwo katã Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la le gbɔgblɔm, eye nàva gblɔe na mí, ekema míaɖo to, eye miawɔ ɖe wo dzi.”
Go thou near, and hear all that the Lord our God shall say: and speak thou unto us all that the Lord our God shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.
28 Yehowa lɔ̃ ɖe miaƒe biabia la dzi, eye wògblɔ nam be, “Mese nya si wò ameawo gblɔ na wò; melɔ̃ ɖe edzi.
And the Lord heard the voice of your words, when ye spake unto me; and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have well said all that they have spoken.
29 O! Ne dzi sia tɔgbi anɔ wo me ɣe sia ɣi, eye woadi be yewoawɔ nye seawo dzi la, ekema nu sia nu anyo na wo le ŋgɔgbea, eye wòanyo na wo viwo to dzidzimeawo katã me!
O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
30 “Yi, nàgblɔ na wo be, woatrɔ ayi woƒe agbadɔwo me.
Go say to them, Get you into your tents again.
31 Emegbe la, wò ŋutɔ nàtrɔ va, atsi tsitre ɖe axanye le afi sia, matsɔ nye seawo katã na wò, nàfia seawo ameawo ne woawɔ wo dzi le anyigba si mele wo na ge la dzi.”
But as for thee, stand thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32 Ale Mose gblɔ na ameawo be, “Ele be miawɔ ɖe Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe seawo dzi, miazɔ ɖe eƒe ɖoɖo ɖe sia ɖe nu tututu, eye miazɔ le mɔ si wòta na mi la dzi pɛpɛpɛ.
Ye shall observe to do therefore as the Lord your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
33 Ne miewɔ esia la, eya ko hafi mianɔ agbe didi, eye wòadze edzi na mi le anyigba si xɔ ge miala la dzi.”
Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.
