Diuteronomi 9
1 Nụrụ, Izrel! Taa ka ị na-aga ịgafe osimiri Jọdan ịbanye ka inweta ala mba ndị dị ukwuu na ndị dị ike karịa gị, inweta obodo ndị dị ukwuu nke nwere mgbidi ha dị elu ruo nʼeluigwe.
'Hear, Israel, thou art passing over to-day the Jordan, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself; cities great and fenced in the heavens;
2 Ndị bi nʼime ha bụ ndị Anak, ndị gbara dimkpa, too ogologo nke ukwuu. Ị maara banyere ha. Ị nụkwaala ka e kwuru sị, “Onye pụrụ iguzo onwe ya nʼihu ụmụ Anak?”
a people great and tall, sons of Anakim, whom thou — thou hast known, (and thou — thou hast heard: Who doth station himself before sons of Anak?)
3 Ma mata taa na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị bụ onye na-aga nʼihu gị dịka ọkụ na-erepịa erepịa. Ọ ga-ala ha nʼiyi. Ọ bụkwa ya ga-eme ka unu lụgbuo ha, chụpụ ha, bibiekwa ha ngwangwa dịka Onyenwe anyị kwere gị na nkwa.
and thou hast known to-day, that Jehovah thy God [is] He who is passing over before thee — a fire consuming; He doth destroy them, and He doth humble them before thee, and thou hast dispossessed them, and destroyed them hastily, as Jehovah hath spoken to thee.
4 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị sitere nʼihu gị chụpụ ha, asịla onwe gị, “Onyenwe anyị akpọbatala m nʼebe a, ka m nweta ala a nʼihi ezi omume m.” Mba, ọ bụ naanị nʼihi ajọ omume nke mba ndị a bi nʼala ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị ji esite nʼihu gị chụpụ ha.
'Thou dost not speak in thy heart (in Jehovah thy God's driving them away from before thee), saying, For my righteousness hath Jehovah brought me in to possess this land, seeing for the wickedness of these nations is Jehovah dispossessing them from thy presence;
5 Ọ bụghị nʼihi ezi omume gị, maọbụ izi ezi nke obi gị ka ị ga-eji nweta ala ahụ, kama ọ bụ nʼihi ajọ omume nke mba ndị a bi nʼime ya ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-eji achụpụ ha site nʼihu gị. Ọ na-emekwa ya nʼihi imezu nkwa ahụ o kwere nna nna gị ha bụ Ebraham, Aịzik, na Jekọb.
not for thy righteousness, and for the uprightness of thy heart, art thou going in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations is Jehovah thy God dispossessing them from before thee; and in order to establish the word which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob;
6 Ya mere, ghọta ya nke ọma na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị anaghị enye gị ezi ala a ka inweta ya nʼihi ezi omume gị, nʼihi na unu bụ ndị isiike.
and thou hast known, that not for thy righteousness is Jehovah thy God giving to thee this good land to possess it, for a people stiff of neck thou [art].
7 Chetakwa nke a ma echefukwala otu i si kpasuo Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị iwe, mgbe mgbe, nʼime ọzara. Site nʼụbọchị ị hapụrụ Ijipt tutu ruo taa, ka ị na-enupu isi nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ.
'Remember — do not forget — that [with] which thou hast made Jehovah thy God wroth in the wilderness; even from the day that thou hast come out of the land of Egypt till your coming in unto this place rebels ye have been with Jehovah;
8 Unu kpasuru Onyenwe anyị iwe nʼugwu Horeb, ya mere o jiri were iwe laa unu nʼiyi.
even in Horeb ye have made Jehovah wroth, and Jehovah sheweth Himself angry against you — to destroy you.
9 Mgbe m rigooro nʼelu ugwu ahụ ịnata mbadamba nkume ndị ahụ bụ mbadamba nkume ọgbụgba ndụ dị nʼetiti Onyenwe anyị na unu, anọrọ m nʼelu ugwu ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị, ọ dịghị nri m riri, ọ dịghịkwa mmiri m ṅụrụ.
'In my going up into the mount to receive the tables of stone (tables of the covenant which Jehovah hath made with you), and I abide in the mount forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk;
10 Onyenwe anyị nyere m mbadamba nkume abụọ ndị ahụ, nke eji mkpịsịaka Chineke dee. Edekwasịrị nʼelu ha iwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị gwara unu nʼugwu ahụ site nʼetiti ọkụ, nʼụbọchị mkpọkọta ahụ.
and Jehovah giveth unto me the two tables of stone written with the finger of God, and on them according to all the words which Jehovah hath spoken with you in the mount, out of the midst of the fire, in the day of the assembly.
11 Mgbe iri abalị anọ gwụrụ Onyenwe anyị nyere m mbadamba nkume abụọ ndị ahụ, bụ mbadamba nkume ọgbụgba ndụ.
'And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days and forty nights, Jehovah hath given unto me the two tables of stone — tables of the covenant,
12 Mgbe ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị gwara m sị m, “Rịdata ọsịịsọ, nʼihi na ndị gị, ndị i si nʼIjipt dupụta, emerụọla onwe ha, ha emeela ngwangwa iwezuga onwe ha site nʼiwu m nyere ha. Ha emeerela onwe ha nwa ehi a kpụrụ akpụ, ka ọ bụrụ chi ha.”
and Jehovah saith unto me, Rise, go down, hasten from this, for thy people hath done corruptly, whom thou hast brought out of Egypt; they have turned aside hastily out of the way which I have commanded them — they have made to themselves a molten thing!
13 Onyenwe anyị gwara m sị, “Ahụla m na ndị a bụ ndị isiike nʼezie.
'And Jehovah speaketh unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and lo, a people stiff of neck it [is];
14 Hapụ m, ka m kpochapụ ma hichapụkwa aha ha site nʼokpuru eluigwe. Aga m emekwa gị ka ị ghọọ mba dị ike karịa, dịkwa ọtụtụ nʼọnụọgụgụ karịa ha.”
desist from Me, and I destroy them, and blot out their name from under the heavens, and I make thee become a nation more mighty and numerous than it.
15 Ya mere, atụgharịrị m malite isi nʼugwu ahụ na-enwu ọkụ rịdata, ejikwa m mbadamba nkume abụọ nke ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nʼaka m.
'And I turn, and come down from the mount, and the mount is burning with fire, and the two tables of the covenant on my two hands,
16 Mgbe m lepụrụ anya, ahụrụ m na unu emeela mmehie megide Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu. Unu akpụọlara onwe unu arụsị nʼụdị nwa ehi. Unu esitela nʼịgbaso iwu Onyenwe anyị wezuga onwe unu ọsịịsọ.
and I see, and lo, ye have sinned against Jehovah your God; ye have made to yourselves a molten calf; ye have turned aside hastily out of the way which Jehovah hath commanded you.
17 Mgbe ahụ, ewere m mbadamba nkume abụọ ahụ, tụpụ ha site nʼaka m abụọ, kụrie ha nʼihu unu.
'And I lay hold on the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and break them before your eyes,
18 Mgbe ahụ, adara m nʼala ọzọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị, erighị m nri maọbụ ṅụọ ihe ọṅụṅụ ọbụla, nʼihi mmehie niile unu mere. Unu mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị si otu a kpasuo ya iwe nke ukwuu.
and I throw myself before Jehovah, as at first, forty days and forty nights; bread I have not eaten, and water I have not drunk, because of all your sins which ye have sinned, by doing the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, to make Him angry.
19 Atụrụ m egwu iwe na ọnụma nke Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na iwe ya dị ukwuu megide unu ruo na ikpochapụ unu. Ma nʼoge ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gere ntị nʼarịrịọ m.
'For I have been afraid because of the anger and the fury with which Jehovah hath been wroth against you, to destroy you; and Jehovah doth hearken unto me also at this time.
20 Nʼoge ahụ, Erọn nʼonwe ya, nọrọ nʼoke nsogbu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị were iwe megide ya, chọọ ibibi ya, ma arịọrọ m Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ nʼihi ya.
'And with Aaron hath Jehovah shewed himself very angry, to destroy him, and I pray also for Aaron at that time;
21 Mgbe ahụ, eweere m ngwa ọrụ mmehie unu, ya bụ nwa ehi ahụ unu kpụrụ, kpọọ ya ọkụ, tipịa ya, gwerie ya nke ọma dịka ntụ, wụnye ntụ ya nʼime mmiri nke si nʼugwu na-asọpụta.
and your sin, which ye have made — the calf — I have taken, and I burn it with fire, and beat it, grinding well till that it [is] small as dust, and I cast its dust unto the brook which is going down out of the mount.
22 Ọzọkwa, unu kpasuru Onyenwe anyị iwe na Tabera, na Masa, ọ bụladị na Kibrọt Hataava.
'And in Taberah, and in Massah, and in Kibroth-Hattaavah, ye have been making Jehovah wroth:
23 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị si na Kadesh Banea zipụ unu ọ sị unu, “Gaanụ nweta ala ahụ m nyere unu.” Ma unu nupuru isi nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nyere unu. Unu ekwenyeghị maọbụ rubere ya isi.
and in Jehovah's sending you from Kadesh-Barnea, saying, Go up, and possess the land which I have given to you, then ye provoke the mouth of Jehovah your God, and have not given credence to Him, nor hearkened to His voice;
24 Site nʼụbọchị m maara ndị unu bụ, ọ dịbeghị mgbe unu na-enupughị isi nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ.
rebels ye have been with Jehovah from the day of my knowing you.
25 Ọ bụ ya mere m jiri daa nʼala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị iri ụbọchị anọ, ehihie na abalị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị kwuru na ọ ga-ala unu nʼiyi.
'And I throw myself before Jehovah, the forty days and the forty nights, as I had thrown myself, for Jehovah hath said — to destroy you;
26 Ekpere m ekpere nʼoge ahụ nye Onyenwe anyị sị ya, “Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị biko, alala ndị gị nʼiyi, nʼihi na ha bụ ihe nketa gị, bụrụkwa ndị i ji ike aka gị na ebube gị gbapụta site nʼIjipt.
and I pray unto Jehovah, and say, Lord Jehovah, destroy not Thy people, and Thine inheritance, whom Thou hast ransomed in Thy greatness; whom Thou hast brought out of Egypt with a strong hand;
27 Elekwasịla nnupu isi ha na isiike ha anya, kama, cheta nkwa gị, nke i kwere ndị ohu gị, Ebraham, Aịzik, na Jekọb. Biko, agụnyela ndụ ọjọọ ha, na mmehie ha megide ha.
be mindful of Thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, turn not unto the stiffness of this people, and unto its wickedness, and unto its sin;
28 Ma ọ bụghị otu a, ndị obodo ahụ nke i si na ya kpọpụta anyị ga-asị, ‘Ọ bụ nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị apụghị inye ha ala o kwere ha na nkwa ka o ji laa ha nʼiyi. Nʼihi na ọ kpọrọ ha asị, ka o ji kpọbata ha nʼime ọzara mee ka ha nwụọ nʼebe ahụ.’
lest the land say from which Thou hast brought us out, Because of Jehovah's want of ability to bring them in unto the land of which He hath spoken to them, and because of His hating them, He brought them out to put them to death in the wilderness;
29 Ma ha bụ ndị gị, ha bụkwa ihe nketa gị. Ha bụ ndị i sitere nʼike gị dị egwu na ike nke aka gị kpọpụta site nʼIjipt.”
and they [are] Thy people, and Thine inheritance, whom Thou hast brought out by Thy great power, and by Thy stretched-out arm!
