Diuteronomi 31
1 Mgbe Mosis gwachara ụmụ Izrel okwu ndị a niile,
Then Moses went and spake these wordes vnto all Israel,
2 ọ gwakwara ha okwu ọzọ sị, “Ugbu a, agbaala m otu narị afọ na iri afọ abụọ! Enwekwaghị m ike idu unu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agwala m sị, Ị gaghị agafe osimiri Jọdan.
And said vnto them, I am an hundreth and twentie yeere olde this day: I can no more goe out and in: also the Lord hath saide vnto me, Thou shalt not goe ouer this Iorden.
3 Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nʼonwe ya ga-ebu gị ụzọ gabiga osimiri a. Ọ ga-ebibi mba niile ndị a nʼihu gị. Ị ga-enwetakwa ala ha. Joshua ga-edu gị gabiga osimiri a, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
The Lord thy God he will go ouer before thee: he will destroy these nations before thee, and thou shalt possesse them. Ioshua, he shall goe before thee, as the Lord hath said.
4 Onyenwe anyị ga-emekwa ha ihe o mere Saịhọn na Ọg, bụ eze ndị Amọrait, ndị o kpochapụrụ ha na ala ha.
And the Lord shall doe vnto them, as he did to Sihon and to Og Kings of the Amorites: and vnto their lande whome he destroyed.
5 Onyenwe anyị ga-enyefe ndị bi nʼebe ahụ nʼaka unu, unu ga-ekpochapụkwa ha dịka m nyere unu nʼiwu.
And the Lord shall giue them before you that ye may do vnto them according vnto euery commandement, which I haue comanded you.
6 Dịnụ ike! Nweenụ obi ike! Unu atụla ha egwu! Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-anọnyere unu. Ọ gaghị agbakụta unu azụ, ọ gakwaghị ahapụ unu.”
Plucke vp your hearts therefore, and be strong: dread not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God him selfe doeth goe with thee: he will not faile thee, nor forsake thee.
7 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis kpọrọ Joshua, gwa ya okwu nʼihu ụmụ Izrel, sị ya, “Dị ike! Nwee obi ike! Nʼihi na ọ bụ gị ga-edu ndị a baa nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ṅụrụ iyi inye nna nna ha, ị ga-emekwa ka ha keta ala a dịka ihe nketa ha.
And Moses called Ioshua, and said vnto him in the sight of all Israel, Be of a good courage and strong: for thou shalt go with this people vnto the lande which the Lord hath sworne vnto their fathers, to giue them, and thou shalt giue it them to inherite.
8 Onyenwe anyị nʼonwe ya ga-eburu gị ụzọ, ọ ga-anọnyekwara gị, ọ gaghị ahapụ gị maọbụ gbakụta gị azụ. Atụla egwu, adala mba.”
And the Lord him selfe doeth go before thee: he will be with thee: he will not faile thee, neither forsake thee: feare not therefore, nor be discomforted.
9 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis depụtara iwu ndị ahụ niile nʼakwụkwọ, were ya nye ndị nchụaja, ụmụ Livayị, ndị na-ebu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ. Mosis nyekwara ndị okenye Izrel akwụkwọ a e dere iwu niile.
And Moses wrote this Lawe, and deliuered it vnto the Priestes the sonnes of Leui (which bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord) and vnto all the Elders of Israel,
10 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis nyere ha iwu sị, “Na ngwụcha afọ asaa ọbụla, nʼafọ ahụ a na-akagbu ụgwọ niile, nʼoge a na-eme Mmemme ụlọ Ikwu,
And Moses commanded them, saying, Euery seuenth yeere when the yeere of freedome shalbe in the feast of the Tabernacles:
11 mgbe Izrel niile ga-abịa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu, nʼebe ahụ ọ ga-ahọpụta, ị ga-agụpụta ihe a site nʼakwụkwọ iwu a nʼihu mmadụ niile ka ha nụrụ ya.
When all Israel shall come to appeare before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall chuse, thou shalt reade this Lawe before all Israel that they may heare it.
12 Kpọkọta mmadụ niile nʼotu ebe, ndị ikom, na ndị inyom na ụmụntakịrị, na ndị ọbịa bi nʼetiti obodo unu, ka ha nụrụ, ma mụta ịtụ egwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu na ilezi anya ịgbaso okwu niile dị nʼiwu a.
Gather the people together: men, and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may heare, and that they may learne, and feare the Lord your God, and keepe and obserue all the wordes of this Lawe,
13 Ụmụntakịrị ha, ndị na-amabeghị iwu ndị a, aghaghị ịnụ na ịmụta ịtụ egwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, ụbọchị ndụ unu niile nʼala ahụ unu na-agafe Jọdan inweta.”
And that their children which haue not knowen it, may heare it, and learne to feare the Lord your God, as long as ye liue in the lande, whither ye goe ouer Iorden to possesse it.
14 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis sị, “Lee, ụbọchị ọnwụ gị na-abịaru nso. Kpọrọ Joshua ka gị na ya soro bịa nʼụlọ nzute ebe m ga-anọ nye ya ọrụ ọ ga-arụ.” Mosis na Joshua sooro bịa guzo onwe ha nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute.
Then the Lord saide vnto Moses, Beholde, thy dayes are come, that thou must die: Call Ioshua, and stande ye in the Tabernacle of the Congregation that I may giue him a charge. So Moses and Ioshua went, and stoode in the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
15 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gosiri ha onwe ya nʼime ogidi igwe ojii nke guzochiri ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ nzute ahụ.
And the Lord appeared in the Tabernacle, in the pillar of a cloude: and the pillar of the cloude stoode ouer the doore of the Tabernacle.
16 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị, “Ị ga-anwụ, jekwuru nna nna gị ha. Mgbe ị nwụrụ, ndị a ga-amalite ife chi ọzọ ofufe ndị dị nʼala ahụ ha na-abanye. Ha ga-agbakụta m azụ, mebie ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na ha gbara.
And the Lord said vnto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleepe with thy fathers, and this people will rise vp, and goe a whoring after the gods of a strange land (whither they goe to dwell therein) and will forsake me, and breake my couenant which I haue made with them.
17 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, iwe m ga-adị ọkụ megide ha, aga m agbakụta ha azụ, zoo ihu m nʼebe ha nọ. A ga-alakwa ha nʼiyi. Ọdachi na ahụhụ dị iche iche ga-abịakwasị ha, nke ga-eme ka ha sị, ‘Chineke anyị anọkwaghị nʼetiti anyị, ọ bụ ya mere ọdachi ndị a ji bịakwasị anyị.’
Wherefore my wrath will waxe hote against them at that day, and I will forsake them, and will hide my face from them: then they shalbe consumed, and many aduersities and tribulations shall come vpon them: so then they will say, Are not these troubles come vpon me, because God is not with me?
18 Aga m echepụ ihu m site nʼebe ha nọ nʼụbọchị ahụ, nʼihi ajọ omume ha nke ife chi ọzọ ofufe.
But I will surely hide my face in that day, because of all the euill, which they shall commit, in that they are turned vnto other gods.
19 “Ugbu a, depụtaranụ onwe unu abụ a nʼakwụkwọ, kuziekwara ya ụmụ Izrel, ka ọ bụrụ ihe akaebe m megide ha.
Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouthes, that this song may be my witnesse against the children of Israel.
20 Mgbe m mere ka ha bata nʼala ahụ m kwere nna nna ha na nkwa, ala ahụ mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-erugharị nʼime ya, mgbe ha rijukwara afọ, baakwa ụba, ha ga-ebido ife chi ọzọ ofufe, jụ m, ma mebikwaa ọgbụgba ndụ m.
For I will bring them into the land (which I sware vnto their fathers) that floweth with milke and honie, and they shall eate, and fil them selues, and waxe fat: then shall they turne vnto other gods, and serue them, and contemne me, and breake my couenant.
21 Ma mgbe ọtụtụ ihe ọdachi na ahụhụ ga-abịakwasị ha, abụ a ga-eme ka ha cheta ihe mere nsogbu ha niile ji bịakwasị ha, nʼihi na abụ a ga-adịgide site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ. Amaara m nke ọma ugbu a, ọ bụladị tupu ha abanye nʼala ahụ m kwere nkwa inye ha site nʼịṅụ iyi, ụdị mmadụ ha bụ.”
And then when many aduersities and tribulations shall come vpon them, this song shall answere them to their face as a witnesse: for it shall not be forgotte out of the mouthes of their posteritie: for I knowe their imagination, which they goe about euen now, before I haue brought them into the lande which I sware.
22 Ya mere, nʼụbọchị ahụ, Mosis dere abụ ahụ, kuziekwara ya ụmụ Izrel.
Moses therefore wrote this song the same day and taught it the children of Israel.
23 Mgbe ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere Joshua nwa Nun iwu sị ya, “Dị ike, nwee obi ike, ị ghaghị ịkpọbata ụmụ Izrel nʼala ahụ m sitere nʼịṅụ iyi kwee ha na nkwa. Mụ onwe m ga-anọnyere gị.”
And God gaue Ioshua the sonne of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong, and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the lande, which I sware vnto them, and I will be with thee.
24 Mgbe Mosis dechara okwu niile nke iwu ndị a nʼakwụkwọ, site na mbido ruo nʼọgwụgwụ,
And when Moses had made an ende of writing the wordes of this Lawe in a booke vntill he had finished them,
25 o nyere ndị Livayị na-ebu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị iwu sị ha,
Then Moses commanded the Leuites, which bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, saying,
26 “Werenụ Akwụkwọ Iwu a tinye ya nʼakụkụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ịgba ama megide unu.
Take the booke of this Lawe, and put ye it in the side of the Arke of the couenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there for a witnes against thee.
27 Nʼihi na amaara m na unu bụ ndị nnupu isi, na ndị isiike. Lee, ọ bụladị taa m nọ ndụ nʼetiti unu, unu na-enupu isi nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ, unu ga-esi aṅaa ghara inupu isi mgbe m nwụrụ?
For I knowe thy rebellion and thy stiffe necke: beholde, I being yet aliue with you this day, ye are rebellious against the Lord: howe much more then after my death?
28 Kpọkọtaanụ ndị okenye unu niile, na ndị ọchịchị agbụrụ unu niile, ka m kwupụta okwu ndị a mgbe ha na-anụ ya. Ka m kpọkuokwa eluigwe na ụwa ka ha gbaa ama megide ha.
Gather vnto me all the Elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speake these wordes in their audience, and call heauen and earth to recorde against them.
29 Nʼihi na amaara m na mgbe m nwụrụ, unu ga-aghọ ndị rụrụ arụ nke ukwuu, unu ga-ewezuga onwe unu site nʼebe iwu ndị ahụ m nyere unu dị. Amakwaara m na nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa, ihe ọjọọ ga-adakwasị unu, nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile unu mere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị nke unu ji kpasuo ya iwe site nʼihe ndị ahụ unu ji aka unu kpụọ.”
For I am sure that after my death ye will vtterly be corrupt and turne from the way, which I haue commanded you: therefore euill will come vpon you at the length, because ye will comit euill in the sight of the Lord, by prouoking him to anger through the worke of your hands.
30 Ya mere, Mosis gụpụtara okwu niile dị nʼabụ a site na mbido ruo ọgwụgwụ na ntị nzukọ ndị Izrel niile.
Thus Moses spake in the audience of all the congregation of Israel the wordes of this song, vntill he had ended them.
