< Diuteronomi 11 >
1 Hụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nʼanya, na-edebezukwa ikpe ya na ụkpụrụ ya na ihe niile o nyere nʼiwu.
You shall therefore love the LORD your God and always keep His charge, His statutes, His ordinances, and His commandments.
2 Chetanụ taa na ọ bụghị ụmụ unu, kama ọ bụ unu onwe unu jiri anya unu hụ ịdọ aka na ntị Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Ọ bụ unu hụrụ ịdị ukwuu ya, ịdị ike ya, ịrụsị ọrụ ike nke ike ya,
Know this day that it is not your children who have known and seen the discipline of the LORD your God: His greatness, His mighty hand, and His outstretched arm;
3 ihe ịrịbama ya niile na ihe niile o mere nʼIjipt, otu o si megide Fero eze Ijipt na ndị ala Ijipt niile.
the signs and works He did in Egypt to Pharaoh king of Egypt and all his land;
4 Unu hụrụ ihe o mere ndị agha Ijipt na ịnyịnya ha, na ụgbọ agha ha. Otu o si mee ka ha laa nʼiyi nʼime Osimiri Uhie, mgbe ha na-achụ unu ọsọ, na otu Onyenwe anyị si wetara ha ịla nʼiyi ebighị ebi.
what He did to the Egyptian army and horses and chariots when He made the waters of the Red Sea engulf them as they pursued you, and how He destroyed them completely, even to this day;
5 Ọ bụghị ụmụ unu hụrụ ihe o meere unu nʼoge ahụ niile unu nọ nʼọzara tutu unu erute nʼebe a,
what He did for you in the wilderness until you reached this place;
6 na ihe o mere Datan na Abiram, ụmụ Eliab, ndị si nʼebo Ruben, otu ala si meghee ọnụ ya loda ha, ha na ezinaụlọ ha, ụlọ ikwu ha na ihe ọbụla nke dị ndụ ha nwere nʼetiti Izrel niile.
and what He did in the midst of all the Israelites to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab the Reubenite, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing that belonged to them.
7 Ma ọ bụ anya unu hụrụ oke ihe ịtụnanya ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị mere.
For it is your own eyes that have seen every great work that the LORD has done.
8 Lezienụ anya debe iwu ndị a m na-enye unu taa, ka unu nwee ike, baa bichikwaa ala ahụ unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta,
You shall therefore keep every commandment I am giving you today, so that you may have the strength to go in and possess the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess,
9 ka unu bie ogologo ndụ nʼime ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ṅụrụ nʼiyi inye nna nna unu ha, na ụmụ ụmụ ha, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya.
and so that you may live long in the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Nʼihi na ala a unu na-aga ịbanye nʼime ya inweta adịghị ka ala Ijipt, ebe unu si pụta, ebe ị na-agha mkpụrụ gị, were ụkwụ tụwara mmiri ụzọ, dịka a na-eme nʼubi akwụkwọ nri.
For the land that you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated on foot, like a vegetable garden.
11 Ma ala unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta bụ ala nwere ugwu na ndagwurugwu, nke na-aṅụ mmiri ozuzo si nʼeluigwe.
But the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess is a land of mountains and valleys that drinks in the rain from heaven.
12 Ọ bụ ala nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼonwe ya na-elekọta! Site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, sitekwa na mbido afọ ruo nʼọgwụgwụ afọ, anya ya adịghị apụ na ya.
It is a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning to the end of the year.
13 Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na unu ga-eji ntụkwasị obi rube isi nʼiwu ya niile, nke m na-enye unu taa, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-eji obi unu niile na mmụọ unu niile hụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼanya, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-efe ya ofufe,
So if you carefully obey the commandments I am giving you today, to love the LORD your God and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 ọ ga na-ezite mmiri ozuzo nʼoge ya, mmiri ozuzo nke mbụ na nke ikpeazụ, nke ga-eme ka ọka unu mịa mkpụrụ hiri nne, ka unu nwee ọtụtụ vaịnị, nweekwa mmanụ oliv.
then I will provide rain for your land in season, the autumn and spring rains, that you may gather your grain, new wine, and oil.
15 Ọ ga-eme ka anụ ụlọ gị nwee ahịhịa ha ga-ata, gị onwe gị ga-enwekwa ihe oriri dị ukwuu. Afọ ga-ejukwa gị nʼihe i nwere.
And I will provide grass in the fields for your livestock, and you will eat and be satisfied.
16 Ma lezienụ anya, ka ahapụ ịrafu obi unu mee ka unu wezuga onwe unu, bido ife chi ndị ọzọ ofufe, kpọọkwa isiala nye ha.
But be careful that you are not enticed to turn aside to worship and bow down to other gods,
17 Mgbe ahụ, iwe Onyenwe anyị ga-adị ọkụ nʼebe unu nọ, ọ ga-agbachi eluigwe, mmiri agaghị ezo, ala agaghị epupụtakwa ihe ubi, unu ga-alakwa nʼiyi nʼotu ntabi anya, nʼezi ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị na-enye unu.
or the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you. He will shut the heavens so that there will be no rain, nor will the land yield its produce, and you will soon perish from the good land that the LORD is giving you.
18 Meenụ ka okwu m ndị a dịgide nʼobi unu na nʼime mmụọ unu. Keenụ ha dịka ihe ịrịbama nʼelu aka unu, kekwasịkwa ha dịka ihe ncheta nʼegedege ihu unu.
Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
19 Kuzierenụ ha ụmụ unu, na-ekwu ihe banyere ha mgbe ị na-anọdụ nʼụlọ gị, na mgbe ị na-aga nʼokporoụzọ, mgbe ị na-edina ala na mgbe i si nʼihe ndina bilie.
Teach them to your children, speaking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
20 Dee ha nʼelu ibo ọnụ ụlọ gị na nke ọnụ ụzọ ama gị.
Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates,
21 Ka ụbọchị ndụ unu na nke ụmụ unu dị ogologo nʼala ahụ unu na-aga ibi nʼime ya, nke Onyenwe anyị kwere nna unu na nkwa. Dịka ogologo ụbọchị niile ha nke eluigwe dị nʼelu, ụwa dịkwa nʼokpuru ya.
so that as long as the heavens are above the earth, your days and those of your children may be multiplied in the land that the LORD swore to give your fathers.
22 Ọ bụrụ na unu elezie anya debe iwu niile m na-enye unu taa, na-ahụkwa Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nʼanya, na-eso ụzọ ya, na-adaberekwa na ya,
For if you carefully keep all these commandments I am giving you to follow—to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, and to hold fast to Him—
23 Onyenwe anyị ga-achụpụ mba niile bi nʼala ahụ unu na-aga inweta, unu ga-anapụkwa ha ala ahụ, ọ bụladị na ha buru ibu, siekwa ike karịa unu.
then the LORD will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and stronger than you.
24 Ebe ọbụla unu zọnyere ụkwụ unu nʼala ahụ aghọọla nke unu, site na ndịda Negeb ruo Lebanọn, sitekwa nʼOsimiri Yufretis ruo Osimiri Mediterenịa. Ha ga-abụ nke unu.
Every place where the sole of your foot treads will be yours. Your territory will extend from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the Euphrates River to the Western Sea.
25 Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla pụrụ imegide unu nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-emenye ha egwu na ụjọ nʼafọ nʼụzọ ọbụla unu na-aga, dịka o kwere na nkwa.
No man will be able to stand against you; the LORD your God will put the fear and dread of you upon all the land, wherever you set foot, as He has promised you.
26 Lee, taa, ana m eche nʼihu unu ngọzị Onyenwe anyị na ọbụbụ ọnụ.
See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a curse—
27 Ngọzị ga-adịrị unu ma ọ bụrụ na unu edebe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, nke m na-enye unu taa.
a blessing if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am giving you today,
28 Nkọcha ahụ ga-adị ma ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ irube isi nye iwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke unu, wezuga onwe unu nʼụzọ ahụ nke m nyere unu nʼiwu taa site nʼịgbaso chi ndị ọzọ, nke unu na-amaghị.
but a curse if you disobey the commandments of the LORD your God and turn aside from the path I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known.
29 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu mere ka unu nweta ala ahụ, a ga-esite nʼelu ugwu Gerizim kwupụta ngọzị ga-adịrị unu, a ga-esitekwa nʼelu ugwu Ebal kwupụta ọbụbụ ọnụ ga-adakwasị unu.
When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.
30 Gerizim na Ebal bụ ugwu dị nʼofe Jọdan, nʼakụkụ okporoụzọ dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ. Ọ dị nso nʼebe osisi ukwu ndị ahụ toro na More, nʼala ndị Kenan ahụ bi nʼAraba, nʼakụkụ Gilgal.
Are not these mountains across the Jordan, west of the road toward the sunset, in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Arabah opposite Gilgal near the Oak of Moreh?
31 Nʼihi na unu na-aga ịgafe osimiri Jọdan, ịbanye nweta ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu na-enye unu. Mgbe unu nwetara ya biri nʼime ya,
For you are about to cross the Jordan to enter and possess the land that the LORD your God is giving you. When you take possession of it and settle in it,
32 hụnụ na unu rubere isi debe iwu niile na ụkpụrụ niile m na-eche nʼihu unu taa.
be careful to follow all the statutes and ordinances that I am setting before you today.
