1 Nya siawo Mose gblɔ na Israelviwo katã le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe go kemɛ dzi le gbedzi, le Araba balime, le Suf gbɔ le Paran kple Tofel kple Laban kple Hazerot kple Dizahab dome.
These bee the wordes which Moses spake vnto all Israel, on this side Iorden in the wildernesse, in the plaine, ouer against the red Sea, betweene Paran and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Di-zahab.
2 Mɔzɔzɔ tso Horeb to Seir to la ŋu yi Kades Barnea la nye ŋkeke wuiɖekɛ ko ƒe azɔli.
There are eleuen dayes iourney from Horeb vnto Kadesh-barnea, by the way of mout Seir.
3 Le ɣleti wuiɖekɛlia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ gbe le Israelviwo ƒe mɔzɔzɔ ƒe blaenelia me la, Mose ƒo nu na Israelviwo tso se siwo katã Yehowa miaƒe Mawu de nɛ la ŋu.
And it came to passe in the first day of the eleuenth moneth, in the fourtieth yeere that Moses spake vnto the children of Israel according vnto all that the Lord had giuen him in commandement vnto them,
4 Esia va eme esi Israel ɖu Sixɔn, Amoritɔwo ƒe fia, ame si nɔ Hesbon kple Ɔg, Basan fia, ame si nɔ Astarot la dzi le Edrei vɔ megbe.
After that he had slaine Sihon the king of the Amorites which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan, which dwelt at Ashtaroth in Edrei.
5 Mose de asi se siawo gbɔgblɔ me na Israelviwo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe go kemɛ dzi, le Moabnyigba dzi. Egblɔ na wo be:
On this side Iorden in the lande of Moab began Moses to declare this lawe, saying,
6 Ƒe blaene nye esi va yi, esi Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la gblɔ na mí le Horeb to la gbɔ be, “Mienɔ afi sia wòdidi.
The Lord our God spake vnto vs in Horeb, saying, Ye haue dwelt long ynough in this mount,
7 Fifia miyi mianɔ Amoritɔwo ƒe tonyigba dzi kple Araba ƒe balime kple Negeb kple Kanaan kple Lebanon ƒe anyigbawo dzi. Anyigba sia tso Domeƒu la ŋu va se ɖe Frat tɔsisi la ŋu.
Turne you and depart, and goe vnto the mountaine of the Amorites, and vnto all places neere thereunto in the plaine, in the mountaine, or in the valley: both Southwarde, and to the Sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and vnto Lebanon: euen vnto the great riuer, the riuer Perath.
8 Metsɔ anyigba sia katã na mi! Miyi edzi, eye miaxɔe, elabena eyae nye anyigba si ŋugbe Yehowa miaƒe Mawu do na mia tɔgbuiwo, Abraham, Isak kple Yakob kple woƒe dzidzimeviwo katã.”
Beholde, I haue set the land before you: go in and possesse that land which the Lord sware vnto your fathers, Abraham, Izhak, and Iaakob, to giue vnto them and to their seede after them.
9 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, megblɔ na ameawo be, “Mehiã kpeɖeŋutɔ! Mienye agba gã aɖe nam be nye ɖeka matsɔ,
And I spake vnto you the same time, saying, I am not able to beare you my selfe alone:
10 elabena Yehowa miaƒe Mawu na miedzi sɔ gbɔ abe ɣletiviwo ene!
The Lord your God hath multiplied you: and beholde, ye are this day as the starres of heauen in nomber:
11 Mawu nagana miadzi ɖe edzi zi akpeakpewo wu, eye wòayra mi abe ale si wòdo ŋugbee ene.
(The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many moe as ye are, and blesse you, as he hath promised you)
12 Ke nu ka ame ɖeka ate ŋu awɔ le miaƒe dzrenyawo dɔdrɔ̃ kple nukpekeamewo ŋuti?
Howe can I alone beare your combrance and your charge, and your strife?
13 Eya ta mitia ŋutsu aɖewo tso to sia to me, ame siwo nye nunyalawo, nugɔmeselawo kple nuteƒekpɔlawo, eye maɖo wo miaƒe kplɔlawo.”
Bring you men of wisedome and of vnderstanding, and knowen among your tribes, and I will make them rulers ouer you:
14 Ke mieɖo eŋu nam be, “Nya si nègblɔ la nyo be woawɔ ɖe edzi.”
Then ye answered me and said, The thing is good that thou hast commanded vs to doe.
15 Metsɔ amegã siwo wotia tso to ɖe sia ɖe me eye wonye ŋutsu siwo nye bubumewo, eye tagbɔ li na wo la ɖo dzikpɔlawo ɖe mia nu, ɖe ame akpewo, alafawo, blaatɔ̃wo kple ewowo nu be woadrɔ̃ nyawo, eye woakpe ɖe wo ŋu le mɔ sia mɔ nu.
So I tooke the chiefe of your tribes wise and knowen men, and made them rulers ouer you, captaines ouer thousands, and captaines ouer hundreds, and captaines ouer fiftie, and captaines ouer tenne, and officers among your tribes.
16 Mede se na miaƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo le ɣe ma ɣi be, “Midrɔ̃ ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe na ame sia ame kple nɔvia kpakple amedzrowo gɔ̃ hã.
And I charged your iudges that same time, saying, Heare the controuersies betweene your brethren, and iudge righteously betweene euery man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.
17 Megblɔ na wo be, ‘Le miaƒe nyametsotsowo me la, migade ame aɖeke dzi le eƒe hotsuitɔnyenye ta o. Miwɔ nu dzɔdzɔe ɖe amegãwo kple ame gblɔewo siaa ŋu sɔsɔe. Migavɔ̃ na woƒe dzikudodo ɖe mia ŋu o, elabena Mawu teƒee miele ʋɔnu drɔ̃m ɖo. Mitsɔ nya siwo sesẽ akpa na mi la vɛ nam, eye mawɔ wo ŋu dɔ.’
Ye shall haue no respect of person in iudgement, but shall heare the small aswell as the great: yee shall not feare the face of man: for the iudgement is Gods: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring vnto me, and I will heare it.
18 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, megblɔ nu siwo katã wòle be miawɔ la na mi.”
Also I commanded you the same time all the things which ye should doe.
19 Míedzo le Horeb to la gbɔ, eye míezɔ mɔ to gbegbe gã dziŋɔ la dzi. Mlɔeba la, míeva ɖo Amoritɔwo ƒe towo gbɔ, afi si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ɖo na mí be míayi. Míeɖo Kades Barnea le Ŋugbedodonyigba la ƒe liƒo dzi.
Then we departed from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wildernesse (as yee haue seene) by the way of the mountaine of the Amorites, as the Lord our God commanded vs: and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
20 Megblɔ na ameawo be, “Yehowa, mía Mawu la tsɔ Amoritɔwo ƒe tonyigba sia na mí.
And I saide vnto you, Yee are come vnto the mountaine of the Amorites, which the Lord our God doeth giue vnto vs.
21 Miyi miaxɔe abe ale si wògblɔ na mí ene. Migavɔ̃ o. Migake ɖi gɔ̃ hã o.”
Beholde, the Lord thy God hath layde the land before thee: go vp and possesse it, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath saide vnto thee: feare not, neither be discouraged.
22 Wogblɔ be, “Gbã la, mina míaɖo ŋkutsalawo ɖa ne woanya mɔ nyuitɔ si dzi míato age ɖe anyigba la dzi kple du gbãtɔ si míaxɔ.”
Then ye came vnto me euery one, and said, We wil send men before vs, to search vs out the land and to bring vs word againe, what way we must go vp by, and vnto what cities we shall come.
23 Esia nye susu nyui aɖe, eya ta meɖo ŋkutsala wuieve ɖa, ɖeka tso to ɖe sia ɖe me.
So the saying pleased me well, and I tooke twelue men of you, of euery tribe one.
24 Woto toawo dzi heyi Eskɔl ƒe balime.
Who departed, and went vp into the mountaine, and came vnto the riuer Eshcol, and searched out the land.
25 Wotsɔ afi ma ƒe kutsetse aɖewo gbɔe. Wotsɔ wo vɛ na mí eye wogblɔ be, “Míedze sii enumake be anyigba nyui aɖe ŋutɔe Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la na mí.”
And tooke of the fruite of the land in their hands, and brought it vnto vs, and brought vs worde againe, and sayd, It is a good land, which the Lord our God doeth giue vs.
26 Ke ameawo gbe be yewomayi anyigba la dzi o, eya ta wotsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa miaƒe Mawu ƒe ɖoɖo ŋuti.
Notwithstanding, ye would not go vp, but were disobedient vnto the commandement of the Lord your God,
27 Wolĩ liʋĩliʋĩ le woƒe agbadɔwo me hegblɔ be, “Yehowa melɔ̃ mí o; ekplɔ mí tso Egipte be Amoritɔwo nawu mí.
And murmured in your tentes, and sayd, Because the Lord hated vs, therefore hath hee brought vs out of the land of Egypt, to deliuer vs into the hand of the Amorites, and to destroy vs.
28 Nu kae le míawɔ ge? Mía nɔvi ŋkutsalawo ƒe ɖaseɖiɖi do ŋɔdzi na mí. Wobe, ‘Anyigba la dzi tɔwo nye ame dzɔatsu sesẽwo, eye gli siwo woɖo ƒo xlã woƒe duwo la kɔ yi ɖatɔ dziŋgɔli! Wokpɔ ame dzɔatsu siwo nye Anak ƒe dzidzimeviwo gɔ̃ hã le afi ma.’”
Whither shall we go vp? our brethren haue discouraged our hearts, saying, The people is greater, and taller then we: the cities are great and walled vp to heauen: and moreouer we haue seene the sonnes of the Anakims there.
29 Ke megblɔ na wo be, “Migavɔ̃ o!
But I sayd vnto you, Dread not, nor be afrayd of them.
30 Yehowa Mawue nye míaƒe kplɔla eye wòawɔ aʋa na mí kple eƒe nukumɔ triakɔwo abe ale si wòwɔ miekpɔ le Egipte ene.
The Lord your God, who goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did vnto you in Egypt before your eyes,
31 Miawo ŋutɔ mienya ale si wòlé be na mí ɣe sia ɣi le gbedzi le afi sia, abe ale si fofo léa be na via ene!”
And in the wildernesse, where thou hast seene how the Lord thy God bare thee, as a man doeth beare his sonne, in all the way which ye haue gone, vntill ye came vnto this place.
32 Ke nya siwo megblɔ la mewɔ dɔ aɖeke ɖe mia dzi o. Miegbe eye miexɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la dzi se o,
Yet for all this ye did not beleeue the Lord your God,
33 evɔ wònye eyae kplɔ mi le mɔzɔzɔ blibo la me, tia teƒe nyuitɔwo na mi be miaƒu asaɖa anyi ɖo. Ekplɔ mi kple dzo bibi le zã me kple lilikpo dodo le ŋkeke me.
Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tentes in, in fire by night, that ye might see what way to goe, and in a cloude by day.
34 Yehowa se woƒe liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ, eye wòdo dɔmedzoe ŋutɔŋutɔ. Eka atam be,
Then the Lord heard the voyce of your wordes, and was wroth, and sware, saying,
35 “Ame ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã matso dzidzime vɔ̃ɖi ma me, anɔ agbe akpɔ anyigba si ŋugbe yedo na wo fofowo o,
Surely there shall not one of these men of this froward generation, see that good land, which I sware to giue vnto your fathers,
36 negbe Kaleb, Yefune ƒe viŋutsu ko, elabena Kaleb ya dze Yehowa yome, eya ta axɔ anyigba si dzi wòzɔ la ƒe akpa aɖe abe eƒe domenyinu ene.”
Saue Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh: he shall see it, and to him will I giue the land that he hath troden vpon, and to his children, because he hath constantly followed the Lord.
37 Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe nye gɔ̃ hã ŋu le woawo ta, eye wògblɔ nam be, “Màde Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi o!
Also the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not goe in thither,
38 Wò kpeɖeŋutɔ, Yosua, Nun ƒe viŋutsu akplɔ Israelviwo ɖe tewòƒe woade afi ma. De dzi ƒo nɛ esi wòle dzadzram ɖo hena ameawo kpɔkplɔ.
But Ioshua the sonne of Nun which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: incourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherite it.
39 Matsɔ anyigba la ana wo vi siwo woawo ŋutɔ wogblɔ be woaku le gbedzi.
Moreouer, your children, which ye sayd should be a praye, and your sonnes, which in that day had no knowledge betweene good and euill, they shall go in thither, and vnto them wil I giue it, and they shall possesse it.
40 Ke mi dzidzime xoxo ma me viwo ya la, mitrɔ fifi laa, miagbugbɔ aɖo ta Ƒu Dzĩ la gbɔ.”
But as for you, turne backe, and take your iourney into the wildernesse by the way of the red Sea.
41 Tete mieʋu eme be, “Míewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa ŋu. Míayi anyigba la dzi, awɔ aʋa ɖe eta abe ale si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ɖo na mí be míawɔ ene.” Ale wokpla woƒe aʋawɔnuwo hebu be yewoaɖu anyigba blibo la dzi tɔwo dzi bɔbɔe.
Then ye answered and sayd vnto me, We haue sinned against the Lord, we wil go vp, and fight, according to all that the Lord our God hath commanded vs: and ye armed you euery man to the warre, and were ready to goe vp into the mountaine.
42 Ke Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Gblɔ na wo bena, ‘Miekpɔ ayi awɔ aʋa o, elabena nyemanɔ kpli mi o. Miaƒe futɔwo aɖu mia dzi.’”
But the Lord said vnto me, Say vnto them, Goe not vp, neither fight, (for I am not among you) least ye fall before your enemies.
43 Megblɔe na wo, gake womeɖo tom o, ke boŋ wogatsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖo ŋuti heyi tonyigba la dzi hena aʋawɔwɔ.
And when I told you, ye would not heare, but rebelled against the commandement of the Lord, and were presumptuous, and went vp into the mountaine.
44 Ke Amoritɔwo, ame siwo nɔ afi ma la kpe aʋa kpli wo, nya wo ɖe du nu abe anyiwo ene, eye wowu wo tso Seir va se ɖe keke Horma.
Then the Amorites which dwelt in that mountaine came out against you, and chased you (as bees vse to doe) and destroied you in Seir, euen vnto Hormah.
45 Wotrɔ gbɔ, eye wofa avi le Yehowa ŋkume, gake meɖo to wo o.
And when ye came againe, ye wept before the Lord, but the Lord would not heare your voyce, nor incline his eares vnto you.
46 Ale wonɔ afi ma, Kades, ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe.
So ye abode in Kadesh a long time, according to the time that ye had remained before.
