1 Ọ bụrụ na i debezuo ma gbasookwa iwu ndị a niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị sitere nʼaka m na-enye gị taa, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-eme ka ị ghọọ mba kachasị mba niile nʼụwa elu.

And it shall be, if thou wilt, hearken, unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to observe to do all his commandments which I am commanding thee to-day, then will Yahweh thy God set thee on high, above all the nations of the earth;

2 Ngọzị ndị a niile ga-abịakwasị gị, zuo gị ahụ, ma ọ bụrụ na i rubere Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị isi.

and all these blessings shall come in upon thee, and reach thee, —because thou dost hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God: —

3 Onye a gọziri agọzi ka ị ga-abụ nʼobodo, bụrụkwa onye a gọziri agọzi nʼala ubi.

Blessed shalt, thou be in the city, —and blessed shalt thou be in the field:

4 Ihe a gọziri agọzi ka mkpụrụ nke afọ gị ga-abụ na mkpụrụ nke ala ubi gị na mkpụrụ nke anụ ụlọ gị, ụmụ ehi gị mụrụ na ụmụ igwe ewu na atụrụ gị.

Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground and the fruit of thy cattle, —the young of thy kine, and the ewes of thy flock:

5 Ihe a gọziri agọzi ka abọ gị na ihe i ji agwọ achịcha ga-abụ.

Blessed, shall be thy basket and thy kneading-trough:

6 Onye a gọziri agọzi ka ị ga-abụ mgbe ị na-abata na mgbe ị na-apụ apụ.

Blessed, shalt thou be when thou comest in, —and, blessed, shalt thou be when thou goest out:

7 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ndị iro ọbụla buliri onwe ha elu imegide gị bụrụ ndị e meriri nʼihu anya gị. Ha ga-esite nʼotu ụzọ buso gị agha, ma ha ga-esite nʼụzọ asaa si nʼihu gị gbalaga.

Yahweh will deliver thine enemies who rise up against thee, to be routed before thee, —one way, shall they come out against thee, and seven ways, shall they flee before thee:

8 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezipụ ngọzị ya ka ọ dịkwasị nʼelu ọba gị na nʼelu ihe ọbụla i tinyere aka gị. Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agọzi gị nʼala ahụ ọ na-enye gị.

Yahweh will command to be with thee the blessing, in thy storehouses and in all whereunto thou settest thy hand, —and will bless thee in the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee:

9 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka i guzosie ike dịka ndị nsọ ya, dịka o sitere nʼịṅụ iyi kwee nkwa ime ma ọ bụrụ na i debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, ma jee ije nʼụzọ ya niile.

Yahweh will confirm thee unto himself for a holy people, as he sware unto thee, —because thou dost keep the commandments of Yahweh thy God, and dost walk in his ways.

10 Mgbe ahụ, ndị niile nọ nʼụwa ga-ahụta na ọ bụ aha Onyenwe anyị ka a kpọkwasịrị gị. Ha ga-atụkwa gị egwu.

And all the peoples of the earth shall see that, the name of Yahweh, hath been called upon thee, —and shall be afraid of thee.

11 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ị babiga ụba oke na mkpụrụ nke afọ gị, na mkpụrụ nke anụ ụlọ gị, na mkpụrụ nke ihe ubi gị, nʼala ahụ ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi nye nna nna gị na ọ ga-enye gị.

And Yahweh will cause thee to abound in that which is good, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle and in the fruit of thy soil, —upon the soil which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers, to give unto thee:

12 Onyenwe anyị ga-emeghepụ eluigwe ebe ụlọakụ ya dị, zidata mmiri nʼala gị nʼoge ya, ma gọzie akaọrụ gị niile. Ị ga-agbazinye ọtụtụ mba ihe, ma gị onwe gị agaghị esite nʼaka onye ọbụla gbaziri ihe ọbụla.

Yahweh will open unto thee his rich storehouse—the heavens, to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless every work of thy hand, so shalt thou lend unto many nations, but thou, shalt not borrow:

13 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ị bụrụ isi, ọ bụghị ọdụdụ. Ọ bụrụ na ị ṅaa ntị nʼiwu ndị a Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị taa, lezie anya ịgbaso ha, ị ga-anọgide nʼelu, ị gaghị anọ nʼokpuru.

And Yahweh, will give thee, to be the head, and not the tail, and thou shalt be only above, and shalt not be beneath, —because thou dost hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh thy God, which I am commanding thee, to-day, to observe and to do;

14 Ewezugala onwe gị site nʼiwu niile ndị a m na-enye gị taa, maọbụ gaa nʼaka nri maọbụ nʼaka ekpe, ịgbaso chi ndị ọzọ na ife ha ofufe.

and dost not turn side from any of the words which I am commanding you to-day, to the right hand or to the left, —to go after other gods, to serve them,

15 Ma otu ọ dị, ọ bụrụ na ị jụ irubere Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị isi, jụkwa ilezi anya, gbasoo iwu ya na ụkpụrụ ya niile, nke m na-enye gị taa, ọbụbụ ọnụ ndị a ga-adakwasị gị.

But it shall be, if thou do not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, then shall come in upon thee all these curses and shall reach thee: —

16 Ị ga-abụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ nʼobodo, bụrụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ nʼala ubi,

Cursed, shalt thou be in the city, —and cursed, shalt thou be in the field:

17 Abọ gị na ihe ịgwọ achịcha gị ga-abụ ihe a bụrụ ọnụ.

Cursed, shall be thy basket, and thy kneading-trough:

18 Ihe a bụrụ ọnụ ka mkpụrụ nke afọ gị ga-abụ, ihe a bụrụ ọnụ ka mkpụrụ nke ala gị ga-abụ, ya na ụmụ nke igwe anụ ụlọ gị, na ụmụ ehi gị na nke igwe ewu na atụrụ gị mụrụ.

Cursed, shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground—the young of thy kine and the ewes of thy flock:

19 Onye a bụrụ ọnụ ka ị ga-abụ mgbe ị na-abata abata na mgbe ị na-apụ apụ.

Cursed, shalt thou be, when thou comest in, —and, cursed, shalt thou be, when thou goest out:

20 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezidata nʼisi gị ọbụbụ ọnụ, na ọgbaaghara, tinyere nkọcha nʼihe niile nke i tinyere aka gị, tutu ruo mgbe ị ghọrọ onye e bibiri ebibi bụrụ onye lara nʼiyi na mberede, nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile i mere site nʼịhapụ m.

Yahweh will send upon thee cursing, confusion and rebuke, in all whereunto thou settest thy hand that thou mayest do it, —until thou be destroyed and until thou perish quickly, because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.

21 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezite ajọ ọrịa nʼetiti gị tutu ruo mgbe a ga-ekpochapụ gị site nʼala ahụ ị gaje ịba nʼime ya inweta.

Yahweh will cause to cleave unto thee—the pestilence, —until he hath consumed thee from off the soil which thou art entering to possess.

22 Onyenwe anyị ga-eti unu ọrịa na-eripịa eripịa, ahụ ọkụ na ọrịa na-aza anụ ahụ, oke okpomọkụ na mma agha, ụkọ mmiri ozuzo na ọrịa na-eripịa ihe ubi, na ọmụma ebu ga-abịakwasị gị tutu ruo mgbe i lara nʼiyi.

Yahweh, will smite thee, with consumption and with fever, and with inflammation and with violent heat and with the sword, and with blight and with mildew, —and they shall pursue thee, until thou perish.

23 Mbara eluigwe nke ị na-ahụ anya ga-aghọ bronz, ala ị na-azọkwasị ụkwụ gị ga-aghọ igwe.

And thy heavens which are over thy head shall become bronze, —and the earth which is under thee iron.

24 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka mmiri kwesiri izo nʼala gị ghọọ uzuzu na aja. Ha ga-esi na mbara eluigwe na-ezodata nʼala tutu ruo mgbe ị lara nʼiyi.

Yahweh will cause the rain of thy land to be powder and dust, —out of the heavens, shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

25 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ndị iro gị merie gị nʼagha. Ị ga-esi otu ụzọ pụta ibuso ha agha, ma ị ga-esi ụzọ asaa gbalaga. Ị ga-aghọrọ ndị ụwa ihe a na-asọ oyi mgbe ha hụrụ ihe dakwasịrị gị.

Yahweh will give thee up to be routed before thine enemies, one way, shalt thou go out against them, and, seven ways, shalt thou flee before them, —and thou shalt become a terror unto all the kingdoms of the earth.

26 Ozu unu ga-aghọrọ ụmụ anụ ufe niile na anụ ọhịa niile ihe oriri. O nwekwaghị onye ga-anọ menye ha egwu chụpụ ha.

And thy dead body shall become food for every bird of the heavens, and for the beast of the earth, —with none to fright them away.

27 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezite etuto ndị Ijipt ka ha bịakwasị gị, ya na ọnya, na agba, na ọkọ. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe a ga-eji gwọọ ha.

Yahweh, will smite thee, with the burning sores of Egypt and with the hemorrhoids, and with scab, and with itch, —of which thou canst not be healed.

28 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezitere gị isi mgbaka, na ikpu ìsì, na ọgbaaghara nke obi.

Yahweh, will smite thee, with madness and with blindness, —and with terror of heart;

29 Ị ga-asọgharị isi nʼetiti ehihie dịka onye kpuru ìsì nʼasọgharị nʼọchịchịrị. Ọ dịghị ihe ọbụla ga-agara gị nke ọma. Site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, ị ga-abụ onye a na-emegbu emegbu, na onye a na-anapụ ihe ya nʼike oge niile, na-enweghị onye ga-anapụta gị.

and thou shalt he groping about in noonday brightness, as the blind man gropeth in thick darkness, and thou shalt not make thy ways prosper, —but shalt be only oppressed and spoiled all the days with none to save.

30 Gị na nwanyị ga-enwe nkwekọrịta ịlụ di na nwunye, ma nwoke ọzọ ga-eduru ya dinaa ya nʼike. Ị ga-ewu ụlọ ma ị gaghị ebi nʼime ya. Ị ga-akụ ubi vaịnị ma ị gaghị eri mkpụrụ si na ya.

A wife, shalt thou betroth, and, another man shall lie with her. A house, shalt thou build, and shalt not dwell therein, —A vineyard, shalt thou plant, and shalt not throw it open;

31 Nʼihu anya gị ka a ga-egbu ehi gị, ma ị gaghị ata iberibe anụ ya. A ga-anapụ gị ịnyịnya ibu gị nʼihu anya gị ma a gaghị eweghachiri gị ya. Atụrụ gị ka a ga-enye ndị iro gị. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-anapụta ha.

Thine ox slaughtered before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof, Thine ass stolen from before thee, and shall not be restored to thee, —Thy flock given to thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to save.

32 A ga-ewere ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ndị inyom nye ndị mba ọzọ. Ọ ga-agụ gị agụụ ogologo oge ka ị hụ ha anya, ma ị pụghị inyere ha aka.

Thy sons and thy daughters given to another people, thine eyes looking on, and failing for them all the day, thine own hand being powerless.

The fruit of thy soil, and all thy toilsome produce, shall a people whom thou knowest not, eat up, —and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed, all the days;

34 Ihe ndị a niile ị ga-eji anya gị hụ ga-eme ka i nwe isi mgbaka.

so that thou shalt be mad, —for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

35 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka etuto nke na-egbu oke mgbu a na-apụghị ịgwọta agwọta too gị nʼikpere na ogwe ụkwụ gị abụọ, ọ ga-agbasa site nʼọbọ ụkwụ gị abụọ ruo nʼopi isi gị.

Yahweh, will smite thee, with a grievous boil, upon the knees and upon the legs, of which thou canst not be healed, —from the sole of thy foot even unto the crown of thy head.

36 Onyenwe anyị ga-achụpụ gị na eze ahụ ị họpụtara nye onwe gị, chụpụ gị nye mba ọzọ, ebe gị na nna nna gị ha, na-amaghị. Nʼebe ahụ, ị ga-efe chi ndị ọzọ nke e ji osisi na nkume kpụọ.

Yahweh will bring thee and thy king whom thou wilt set up over thee, unto a nation which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers, —and thou shalt serve there other gods of wood and of stone.

37 Ị ga-abụ ihe iju anya, na ihe e ji atụ ilu, na ihe akụkọ, nʼetiti mba ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị ga-achụga gị.

Thus shalt thou become a horror, a byword, and a mockery, among all the peoples whither Yahweh thy God will drive thee.

38 Ị ga-akụ ọtụtụ mkpụrụ nʼubi ma ị ga-aghọta ntakịrị mkpụrụ, nʼihi na igurube ga-ericha ihe ị kụrụ nʼubi.

Much seed, shalt thou take out into the field, —and little, shalt thou gather in, for the locust shall consume it.

39 Ị ga-akọ ubi vaịnị lekọtakwa ya anya, ma ị gaghị aracha mkpụrụ ya maọbụ ṅụọ mmanya si na ya, nʼihi na ikpuru ga-eri ha.

Vineyards, shalt thou plant, and dress, —but wine, shalt thou not drink, neither shalt thou gather the grapes, for the worm shall eat them.

40 Osisi oliv ga na-eto ebe niile, ma mmanụ oliv agaghị adị nke ị ga-ete nʼahụ nʼihi na mkpụrụ oliv ga-adasịsị na-akaghị aka oge ha mara ifuru.

Olive trees, shalt thou have in all thy bounds, —but with oil, shalt thou not anoint thyself, for thine olives, shall drop off.

41 Ị ga-amụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ndị inyom ma ha agaghị adịgide nʼihi na a ga-adọta ha nʼagha.

Sons and daughters, shalt thou beget, and they shall not be thine, for they shall go into captivity.

42 Igwe igurube ga-erichasị osisi niile dị nʼubi gị, ya na ihe ị kụrụ nʼubi gị.

All thy trees, and the fruit of thy ground, shall the grasshopper, devour.

43 Onye ọbịa bi nʼetiti gị ga-aba ụba karịa gị. Ihe ga na-agara ya nke ọma, ma ihe ga na-ajọrọ gị njọ.

The sojourner who is in thy midst, shall mount up above thee higher and higher, —whereas, thou, shalt come down lower and lower:

44 Ọ ga-ebinye gị ihe, ọ bụkwaghị gị ga-ebinye ya! Ọ ga-abụ isi ma ị ga-abụ ọdụdụ.

he, shall lend to thee, but, thou, shalt not lend to him, —he, shall become head, and, thou, shalt become tail.

45 Ọbụbụ ọnụ ndị a niile ga-abịakwasị gị. Ha ga-achụso gị ọsọ, chụkwute gị tutu ruo mgbe a lara gị nʼiyi, naanị nʼihi na ị jụrụ irubere Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị isi, na idebe iwu na ụkpụrụ ndị a o nyere gị.

Moreover, all these curses, shall come in upon thee, and pursue thee and overtake thee, until thou be destroyed, —because thou didst not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he hath commanded thee;

46 Ha ga-abụ ihe ịrịbama na ihe ebube nye gị, na mkpụrụ gị niile, ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

and they shall be upon thee, for a sign, and for a wonder, and upon thy seed, unto times age-abiding.

47 Nʼihi na ị jụrụ iji ọṅụ na obi ụtọ fee Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nʼoge ihe na-agara gị nke ọma.

Because thou servedst not Yahweh thy God, with rejoicing, and with gladness of heart, for abundance of all things,

48 Ya mere, nʼọnọdụ agụụ na akpịrị ịkpọ nkụ, nʼọnọdụ ịgba ọtọ na ụkọ ka ị ga-efe ndị iro ahụ Onyenwe anyị na-ezite imegide gị. Ọ ga-anyakwasị yoku igwe nʼolu gị ruo mgbe ọ lara gị nʼiyi.

therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies, whom Yahweh will send against thee, with hunger and with thirst and with nakedness, and with want of all things, —and he, will put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he hath destroyed thee.

49 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka mba si nʼebe dị anya na nsọtụ ụwa, bịakwasị gị, imegide gị. Mba a ga-adị gara gara dịka ugo, ọ ga-abụkwa mba ị na-amaghị asụsụ ha,

Yahweh will bring against thee a nation from afar, from the end of the earth, as darteth a bird of prey, —a nation whose tongue thou canst not understand;

50 Mba na-enweghị ihu ọchị nke na-adịghị asọpụrụ okenye maọbụ were ihuọma leta ụmụntakịrị.

a nation of fierce countenance, —who wilt not respect an elder nor to the young, show favour;

51 Ha ga-erichapụ mkpụrụ nke anụ ụlọ gị niile na mkpụrụ nke ihe ubi gị niile tutu ruo mgbe ị ghọrọ ihe e bibiri ebibi. O nwekwaghị ihe ga-afọdụrụ gị, maọbụ ọka, maọbụ mmanya ọhụrụ maọbụ mmanụ oliv, maọbụ ụmụ ehi maọbụ ewu na atụrụ gị mụrụ, ruo mgbe e mere ka ị laa nʼiyi.

then shall he eat the young of thy cattle and the fruit of thy ground until thou art destroyed, who will not leave for thee corn, new wine or oil, the young of thy kine, or the ewes of thy flock, —until he hath caused thee to perish.

52 Mba ahụ ga-anọchigide obodo ndị ahụ niile dị nʼala gị tutu ruo mgbe mgbidi ndị ahụ niile e wusiri ike, nke ị na-atụkwasị obi dara. Ọ ga-anọchigide ndị ahụ niile dị nʼala ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị.

And he shall lay siege to thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down wherein thou wast trusting, in all thy land, —yea he will lay siege to thee in all thy gates, in all thy land which Yahweh thy God, hath given, unto thee.

53 Ị ga-erikwa anụ ahụ ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ndị inyom ndị Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nyere gị nʼihi oke nnọchigide nke ndị agha nọchigidere gị na nʼihi oke mkpagbu nke ndị iro.

And thou wilt eat the fruit of thy body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, whom Yahweh thy God hath given unto thee—in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee.

54 Ọ bụladị nwoke ahụ dịkasịrịrị nwayọọ na-enwekwa mmetụta mmadụ nʼetiti unu ga-aghọ onye afọ tara mmiri nke ukwuu megide nwanne ya nwoke, maọbụ nwunye nke ọ hụrụ nʼanya, maọbụ ụmụ ya, ndị ka dị ndụ.

The man that is tender among you, and exceedingly delicate, his eye will be jealous of his brother and of the wife of his bosom, and of the remnant of his sons, whom be might leave behind;

55 Ọ gaghị enye onye ọbụla nʼime ha ụfọdụ nʼime anụ ahụ ụmụ ndị ọ na-eri, nʼihi na ọ bụ naanị ya bụ ihe oriri fọdụrụ ya, nʼihi ahụhụ nke nnọchi ndị iro nọchiri ọnụ ụzọ obodo gị niile butere.

so that he will not give to any one of them, of the flesh of his sons which he will eat, because he hath nothing at all left him, —in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee within all thy gates.

56 Nwanyị nke dịkarịsịrị nwayọọ na-enwekwa mmetụta mmadụ nʼetiti unu, nke dị oke nwayọọ, nke ihe na-emetụta na ọ dịghị amasị ya ịzọgịdesị ọbụ ụkwụ ya ike nʼala, ga-ajụ ikenye di ya ọ hụrụ nʼanya, nwa ya nwoke maọbụ nwa ya nwanyị,

The tender and delicate woman among you who hath never adventured the sole of her foot to set it upon the ground, through delicateness and through tenderness, her eye shall be jealous of the husband of her bosom, and of her own son, and of her own daughter;

57 ọ bụladị akpanwa si nʼetiti ụkwụ ya pụta na ụmụ ọhụrụ ọ mụrụ. Nʼọnọdụ ọjọọ nʼoke ụkọ ya, ọ chọrọ iri ha na nzuzo, nʼihi ahụhụ nke ndị iro gị mere ka ọ bịakwasị gị nʼoge nnọchigide nke obodo gị niile.

both as to her afterbirth that cometh forth from between her feet and as to her children which she shall bear, for she will eat them for want of all things secretly, —in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee within thine own gates.

58 Ọ bụrụ na i lezighị anya gbasoo okwu iwu niile e dere nʼime akwụkwọ a, ọ bụrụ na ị sọpụrụghị aha a dị ebube na nke dị egwu, bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị,

If thou wilt not take heed to do all the words of this law, which are written in this scroll, —to revere this glorious and reverend name, Yahweh thy God,

59 Onyenwe anyị ga-ezitere gị na ụmụ ụmụ gị ihe otiti dị oke egwu, oke mbibi nke ga-adị ogologo oge, na ọrịa dị oke njọ nke na-adịghị ala ala.

then will Yahweh make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, —plagues great and lasting, and diseases grievous and lasting;

60 Ọ ga-ezitere gị ọrịa ndị ahụ niile dị nʼIjipt, nke ị na-atụ ụjọ ha, ha ga-arapara gị nʼahụ.

and he will bring back on thee all the sickness of Egypt, because of which thou wast afraid, —and they shall cleave unto thee;

61 Ọ bụghị naanị nke a! Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ụdị ọrịa ọbụla, na ụdị ihe otiti ọbụla, ọ bụladị ndị na-adịghị nʼime Akwụkwọ Iwu a, bịakwasị gị, tutu ruo mgbe a ga-ekpochapụ gị.

even every disease and, every plague, which are not written in this scroll of the law, will Yahweh bring up against thee, until thou art destroyed,

62 Ọ bụ ezie na ị dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ dịka kpakpando nke eluigwe, maọbụ naanị mmadụ ole na ole nʼime gị ga-afọdụ. Ihe ndị a niile ga-emezu nʼihi na i geghị ntị nʼolu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị.

And ye shall be left men few in number, whereas ye had become as the stars of the heavens for multitude, —because thou hast not hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh thy God.

63 Dịka mmụba ị mụbara nʼọnụọgụgụ, na ịdị ukwuu nke akụnụba gị si bụrụ ihe nyere Onyenwe anyị obi ụtọ, otu a ka ọ ga-esi tọkwaa ya ụtọ ibibi gị, na ime ka ị daa ụkpa. Ọ ga-esi nʼala ahụ ị na-aga inweta hopu gị.

And it shall come to pass that as Yahweh rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so, will Yahweh rejoice over you, to cause you to perish and to destroy you, —and ye shall be torn away, from off the soil, whither thou art going in to possess it;

64 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka ị gbasasịa nʼetiti mba niile, site nʼotu nsọtụ ụwa ruo na nsọtụ nke ọzọ. Nʼebe ahụ, ị ga-efekwa chi ndị ọzọ, nke gị, maọbụ nna nna gị ha, na-amaghị, chi e ji osisi na nkume kpụọ.

and Yahweh will scatter thee among all the peoples, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth, —and thou wilt serve there other gods whom thou hast not known—thou nor thy fathers, —of wood and of stone.

65 Nʼetiti mba ndị a, obi agaghị eru gị ala, ọbụ ụkwụ gị agaghị enwe ebe izuike. Nʼebe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị ga-enye gị mkpụrụobi na-ama jijiji, anya nke ike gwụrụ nʼihi enweghị olileanya, na obi na-ada mba.

And among those nations, shalt thou find no ease, neither shall there be a place of rest for the sole of thy foot, —but Yahweh will give unto thee there a trembling heart, and a failing of eyes and faintness of soul.

66 Ndụ gị ga-ekonye nʼelu nʼihi oke egwu. Ị ga-anọ nʼegwu, ehihie na abalị, ị gaghị ejikwa ndụ gị nʼaka.

And thy life will be hung up for thee in front, —and thou wilt be in dread by night and by day, and wilt not trust in thy life.

67 Nʼụtụtụ, ị ga-asị, “Ewoo, a sịkwa na ugbu a bụ uhuruchi!” Nʼuhuruchi ị ga-asịkwa, “Ewoo, a sịkwarị na ugbu a bụ ụtụtụ!” Ị ga-ekwu ihe ndị a nʼihi ihe egwu juru gị obi, na nʼihi ihe ndị ahụ niile anya gị na-ahụ.

In the morning, thou wilt say—Oh that it were evening! and in the evening, thou wilt say—Oh that it were morning! because of the dread of thy heart which thou wilt dread, and because of the sight of thine eyes which thou wilt see.

68 Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka i soro ụgbọ mmiri lọghachi nʼIjipt, nʼije ahụ m kwuru na ị gaghị ejekwa ọzọ. Nʼebe ahụ ị ga-ewere onwe gị resi ndị iro gị dịka ohu ndị ikom maọbụ ndị inyom, ma ọ dịghị onye ga-achọ ịzụ gị.

And Yahweh will take thee back again to Egypt in ships, by the way whereof I said unto thee, Thou shalt not again any more see it. And ye will offer yourselves there for sale unto thine enemies as servants and as handmaids with no one to buy.
