Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: He ʻoku ai ʻae fakakikihi ʻa Sihova mo e kakai ʻoe fonua ni, “Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ha moʻoni, pe ha ʻaloʻofa, pe ha ʻilo ki he ʻOtua ʻi he fonua.
2 Mietaa nu, hedaa alakpa, wua ame, fia fi, eye miewɔa ahasi kpena ɖe eŋu. Ʋunyaʋunya kple amewuwu bɔ ɖe afi sia afi.
Ko e kape, mo e loi, mo e fakapō, mo e feʻauaki, ʻoku hā mai mei ai, pea ʻoku ala ʻae toto ki he toto.
3 Esiawo tae miaƒe anyigba megale nuku wɔm o ɖo, anyigba la dzi yɔ fũu kple nuxaxa, nu gbagbe ɖe sia ɖe le dɔ lém, eye ɖewo le kukum; lãwo, dziƒoxeviwo kple tɔmelãwo gɔ̃ hã le tsɔtsrɔ̃m.
Ko ia, ʻe tangi ʻae fonua, pea ko ia taki taha ʻoku nofo ai ʻe feinga, fakataha mo e fanga manu ʻoe vao, pea mo e fanga manupuna ʻoe ata; ʻio, naʻa mo e ika ʻoe tahi ʻe ʻave mei ai.
4 “Ame aɖeke megatsɔ nya ɖe nɔvia ŋu alo aka mo nɛ o, elabena wò dukɔ la le abe ame siwo le dzre wɔm kple nunɔlawo ene.
“Kae ʻoua naʻa fakakikihi mo valoki ʻe ha tangata ha taha kehe: he ko hoʻo kakai ʻoku hangē ko kinautolu ʻoku fakakikihi mo e taulaʻeiki.
5 Eya ta mi kple míaƒe nyagblɔɖilawo miakli nu adze anyi le ŋdɔkutsu kple zã siaa, eye matsrɔ̃ mia dada Israel akpe ɖe mia ŋu.
Ko ia te ke hinga ʻi he [kei ]ʻaho; pea mo e palōfita, te ne tō foki mo koe ʻi he pō, pea te u fakaʻauha hoʻo faʻē.
6 Le simadzemadze ta nye amewo le tsɔtsrɔ̃m, esi mi, nunɔlawo, miedo vlo sidzedze ta la, nye hã megbe be miaganye nye nunɔlawo o, eye esi mieŋlɔ miaƒe Mawu ƒe sewo be ta la, nye hã maŋlɔ mia viwo be.
ʻOku ʻauha hoku kakai ʻi he masiva ʻilo: koeʻuhi kuo ke liʻaki ʻae ʻilo, te u liʻaki foki koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ke taulaʻeiki kiate au; ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo fakangaloʻi ʻae fono ʻa ho ʻOtua, te u fakangaloʻi foki hoʻo fānau.
7 Zi ale si nunɔlawo le agbɔ sɔm ɖe edzi la, zi nenema kee wole nu vɔ̃ wɔm ɖe ŋutinye, eya ta matrɔ woƒe ŋutikɔkɔe wòazu ŋukpe na wo.
ʻI henau tupu naʻa nau fai angahala kiate au: ko ia te u liliu ʻenau ongoongolelei ko e mā.
8 Nunɔlawo hã kpɔa dzidzɔ le ameawo ƒe nu vɔ̃ ŋu, eye woɖunɛ abe nuɖuɖu ene,
ʻOku nau kai hake ʻae angahala ʻa hoku kakai, pea ʻoku nau tukupau honau loto ki heʻenau angakovi.
9 eya ta ale wòle: Nunɔlawo kple ameawo katã sɔ, elabena nunɔlaawo vɔ̃ɖi, eye ameawo hã vɔ̃ɖi. Esia ta, mahe to na nunɔlaawo kple ameawo siaa le woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖiwo ta.
Pea ʻe pehē ʻi ai, hangē ko e kakai, ʻe pehē ʻae taulaʻeiki: pea te u tautea ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko honau ngaahi hala, pea totongi kiate kinautolu ʻenau ngaahi faianga.
10 “Woaɖu nu, ke womaɖi ƒo o. Woawɔ gbolo, gake womadzi ɖe edzi o, elabena wogbe nu le Yehowa gbɔ,
He te nau kai ka ʻe ʻikai mākona, te nau feʻauaki ka ʻe ʻikai tupu: koeʻuhi kuo nau tuku ʻenau tokanga kia Sihova.
