Mose 5 7
1 Ne Yehowa miaƒe Mawu kplɔ wò yi Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi, abe ale si wòle wɔwɔ ge kpuie ene la, atsrɔ̃ dukɔ adre siwo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe lolo, eye wòsẽ wu wò. Dukɔ siawoe nye: Hititɔwo, Girgasitɔwo, Amoritɔwo, Kanaantɔwo, Perizitɔwo, Hivitɔwo kple Yebusitɔwo.
When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possesse it, and shall roote out many nations before thee: the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, seuen nations greater and mightier then thou,
2 Ne Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ wo de asi na wò be nàtsrɔ̃ wo la, ele be nàtsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ. Mègawɔ nubabla kpli wo alo nàkpɔ nublanui na wo o. Tsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ.
And the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, then thou shalt smite them: thou shalt vtterly destroy them: thou shalt make no couenant with them, nor haue compassion on them,
3 Mègaɖe srɔ̃ tso wo dome o, eye mègaɖe mɔ viwò ŋutsuwo kple viwò nyɔnuwo naɖe wo vinyɔnuwo kple wo viŋutsuwo o.
Neither shalt thou make marriages with them, neither giue thy daughter vnto his sonne, nor take his daughter vnto thy sonne.
4 Ne viwòwo ɖe wo viwo la, viwòwo asubɔ woƒe mawuwo godoo. Ekema Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe abi ɖe ŋuwò, eye Yehowa atsrɔ̃ wò kokoko.
For they wil cause thy sonne to turne away from me, and to serue other gods: then will the wrath of the Lord waxe hote against you and destroy thee suddenly.
5 Ele be nàmu woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, agbã woƒe legbawo, aho woƒe aƒeliwo aƒu anyi, eye nàtɔ dzo woƒe aklamakpakpɛwo,
But thus ye shall deale with them, Ye shall ouerthrowe their altars, and breake downe their pillars, and ye shall cut downe their groues, and burne their grauen images with fire.
6 elabena wò la, dukɔ kɔkɔe nènye, eye wotsɔ wò na Yehowa, wò Mawu la. Etia wò tso xexemedukɔwo katã dome be nànye yeƒe dukɔ tiatia.
For thou art an holy people vnto the Lord thy God, the Lord thy God hath chosen thee, to be a precious people vnto himselfe, aboue all people that are vpon the earth.
7 Etia wò, eye wòkɔ eƒe lɔlɔ̃ ɖe dziwò duu, menye esi nènye dukɔ si lolo wu bubuawo ta o, elabena wòe nye suetɔ kekeake le dukɔwo dome!
The Lord did not set his loue vpon you, nor chose you, because ye were more in number then any people: for ye were the fewest of all people:
8 Esi wòlɔ̃ wò kple ale si wòwɔ atam si wòka na tɔgbuiwòwo dzi ta koe. Eya ta wòɖe wò tso kluvinyenye me le Egiptenyigba dzi to eƒe ŋusẽ gã ɖeɖe fia kple nukunu triakɔwo wɔwɔ me.
But because the Lord loued you, and because hee would keepe the othe which hee had sworne vnto your fathers, the Lord hath brought you out by a mightie hand, and deliuered you out of the house of bondage from the hand of Pharaoh King of Egypt,
9 Eya ta nyae bena Yehowa, wò Mawu la nye Mawu nuteƒewɔla. Ewɔa eƒe ŋugbedodowo dzi na dzidzime akpewo, eye wòtsɔa lɔlɔ̃ mavɔ lɔ̃a ame siwo lɔ̃nɛ, eye wowɔa eƒe seawo dzi.
That thou mayest knowe, that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithfull God which keepeth couenant and mercie vnto them that loue him and keepe his commandements, euen to a thousand generations,
10 Ke ame siwo léa fui la, woahe to na wo le dukɔwo ŋkume, eye woatsrɔ̃ wo. Eya ŋutɔ ahe to na wo.
And rewardeth them to their face that hate him, to bring them to destruction: he wil not deferre to reward him that hateth him, to his face.
11 Eya ta wɔ ɖe se siwo katã mele tsɔtsɔm na wò egbea la dzi.
Keepe thou therefore the commandements, and the ordinances, and the lawes, which I commaund thee this day to doe them.
12 Le wò seawo dzi wɔwɔ ta la, Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ ɖe eƒe nubabla si wòtsɔ lɔ̃ wò kple fofowòwo la dzi.
For if ye hearken vnto these lawes, and obserue and doe them, then the Lord thy God shall keepe with thee the couenant, and the mercie which he sware vnto thy fathers.
13 Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, alɔ̃ wò, ayra wò, eye wòawɔ wò nàzu dukɔ gã aɖe. Ana nàdzi asɔ gbɔ, wò anyigba nanyo nukuwo, eye wò lãwo hã nadzi asɔ gbɔ, ale be wò bli, wain, ami, nyiwo, alẽwo kple gbɔ̃wo asɔ gbɔ ne mieva ɖo anyigba si ŋugbe wòdo na fofowòwo be yeatsɔ na wo la dzi.
And he wil loue thee, and blesse thee, and multiplie thee: he will also blesse the fruite of thy wombe, and the fruite of thy land, thy corne and thy wine, and thine oyle and the increase of thy kine, and the flockes of thy sheepe in the land, which he sware vnto thy fathers to giue thee.
14 Yehowa ayra wò wu dukɔ bubu ɖe sia ɖe le xexea me. Wò ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa dometɔ aɖeke matsi ko o. Woƒe lãwo gɔ̃ hã matsi ko o.
Thou shalt be blessed aboue all people: there shall be neither male nor female barren among you, nor among your cattell.
15 Gawu la, Yehowa aɖe miaƒe dɔlélewo katã ɖa, eye mana Egiptetɔwo ƒe dɔléle siwo dzi nèɖo ŋkui nyuie la dometɔ aɖeke naɖe fu na wò o. Atsɔ dɔléle siawo katã ada ɖe wò futɔwo dzi!
Moreouer, the Lord will take away from thee all infirmities, and will put none of the euill diseases of Egypt (which thou knowest) vpon thee, but wil send them vpon all that hate thee.
16 Ele be nàtsrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo katã Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ de asi na wò. Mègakpɔ nublanui na wo o, eye mègasubɔ woƒe mawuwo o. Ne ègbe toɖoɖo, eye nèwɔ nu siawo la, dzɔgbevɔ̃e ava dziwò.
Thou shalt therefore consume all people which the Lord thy God shall giue thee: thine eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serue their gods, for that shalbe thy destruction.
17 Ɖewohĩ miabia mia ɖokuiwo be, “Dukɔ siawo sesẽ wu mí, aleke míate ŋu awɔ anya wo ɖa?”
If thou say in thine heart, These nations are moe then I, how can I cast them out?
18 Ke migavɔ̃ wo o! Miɖo ŋku nu si Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la wɔ Farao kple Egiptenyigba blibo la
Thou shalt not feare them, but remember what the Lord thy God did vnto Pharaoh, and vnto all Egypt:
19 miekpɔ kple miawo ŋutɔ miaƒe ŋkuwo, xaxa sesẽwo, nukunuwo kple dzesi gãwo, asi sesẽ kple abɔ si wòdo ɖe dzi si Yehowa, wò Mawu la tsɔ kplɔ wò do goe la dzi la dzi nyuie. Yehowa, wò Mawu la awɔ nenema ke na ame siwo vɔ̃m nèle fifia.
The great tentations which thine eyes sawe, and the signes and wonders, and the mighty hand and stretched out arme, whereby the Lord thy God brought thee out: so shall the Lord thy God do vnto all ye people, whose face thou fearest.
20 Gawu la, Yehowa wò Mawu la aɖo nudzodzoe teamewo ɖe wo dome va se ɖe esime ame siwo tsi agbe, eye woɣla wo ɖokuiwo la hã nàtsrɔ̃.
Moreouer, the Lord thy God will send hornets among them vntil they that are left, and hide themselues from thee, be destroyed.
21 “Mègavɔ̃ dukɔ mawo o, elabena Yehowa, wò Mawu la le mia dome; Mawu ŋusẽtɔ kple ŋɔdzitɔ wònye.
Thou shalt not feare them: for the Lord thy God is among you, a God mightie and dreadful.
22 Yehowa, wò Mawu la maɖe mɔ be miaɖe wo katã ɖa zi ɖeka o, ne menye nenema o la, lã wɔadãwo adzi asɔ gbɔ aɖe to ɖe wò.
And the Lord thy God wil roote out these nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, least the beasts of the fielde increase vpon thee.
23 Ke Yehowa, wò Mawu la atsɔ wo ade asi na wò, ana woatɔtɔ va se ɖe esime woatsrɔ̃.
But the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, and shall destroy them with a mightie destruction, vntill they be brought to naught.
24 Mawu atsɔ woƒe fiawo ade asi na wò, eye nàtutu woƒe ŋkɔwo ɖa le anyigba la ŋkume. Wo dometɔ aɖeke mate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe ŋuwò o. Ke boŋ àtsrɔ̃ wo.
And he shall deliuer their Kings into thine hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from vnder heauen: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, vntill thou hast destroyed them.
25 Tɔ dzo woƒe legbawo, eye wo ŋu klosalo alo sika megabiã ŋu na wò o, eye mègatsɔ wo na ɖokuiwò o, elabena ŋunyɔnue wonye na Yehowa, wò Mawu la.
The grauen images of their gods shall ye burne with fire, and couet not the siluer and golde, that is on them, nor take it vnto thee, least thou be snared therewith: for it is an abomination before the Lord thy God.
26 Mègatsɔ ŋunyɔnu aɖeke va aƒewò me o, ne menye nenema o la, wò hã àzu busunu si woɖo anyi na tsɔtsrɔ̃. Tsri wo vevie, eye woanyɔ ŋu na wò elabena busunuwoe wonye.
Bring not therefore abomination into thine house, lest, thou be accursed like it, but vtterly abhorre it, and count it most abominable: for it is accursed.
