Levitikọs 26
1 “‘Unu emerela onwe unu arụsị ọbụla, maọbụ guzobe oyiyi apịrị apị, maọbụ ogidi nkume ọbụla ọtọ, nye onwe unu. Unu edokwala nkume a pịrị apị ọbụla nʼala unu maka ịkpọ isiala nye ya. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
Do not make images of false gods, or put up an image cut in stone or a pillar or any pictured stone in your land, to give worship to it; for I am the Lord your God.
2 “‘Debenụ iwu niile m nyere maka ụbọchị Izuike m, sọpụkwaranụ ebe nsọ m. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
Keep my Sabbaths and give honour to my holy place: I am the Lord.
3 “‘Ọ bụrụ na unu ejegharịa nʼụkpụrụ m, lezie anya debe iwu m niile,
If you are guided by my rules, and keep my laws and do them,
4 aga m enye unu mmiri ozuzo nʼoge ya, nke ga-eme ka ala unu mịa ọtụtụ ihe ubi. Osisi unu niile ga-ejupụtakwa na mkpụrụ mgbe niile.
Then I will give you rain at the right time, and the land will give her increase and the trees of the field will give their fruit;
5 Unu ga-anọgide na-azọcha ọka tutu ruo mgbe unu ga-aghọ mkpụrụ vaịnị unu, owuwe ihe ubi mkpụrụ vaịnị unu ga-adịgidekwa ruo oge ịkụ mkpụrụ nʼubi. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, unu ga-enwe nri ga-ezuru unu, unu ga-ebikwa nʼudo nʼala unu.
And the crushing of the grain will overtake the cutting of the grapes, and the cutting of the grapes will overtake the planting of the seed, and there will be bread in full measure, and you will be living in your land safely.
6 “‘Aga m eme ka udo dịrị nʼala ahụ, unu ga-edina ala, ọ dịghịkwa onye ga-eme ka unu tụọ egwu ọbụla. Aga m ewezuga site nʼetiti unu ajọ anụ ọhịa, mma agha agaghị esitekwa nʼala unu bi nʼime ya gafee.
And I will give you peace in the land, and you will take your rest and no one will give you cause for fear; and I will put an end to all evil beasts in the land, and no sword of war will go through your land.
7 Unu ga-achụ ndị iro unu ọsọ. Ha ga-ada nʼihu unu site na mma agha.
And you will put to flight those who are against you, and they will be put to death by your swords.
8 Mmadụ ise nʼime unu ga-achụ narị mmadụ ọsọ. Narị mmadụ nʼetiti unu ga-achụkwa iri puku mmadụ ọsọ. Ndị iro unu ga-ada nʼihu unu site na mma agha.
Then five of you will put to flight a hundred, and a hundred of you will put to flight ten thousand, and all who are against you will be put to death by your swords.
9 “‘Aga m eji ihuọma leta unu, mee ka unu mụbaa ma jupụta nʼọnụọgụgụ. Aga m eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ m nʼebe unu nọ dịgide.
And I will have pleasure in you and make you fertile and greater in number; and I will keep my agreement with you.
10 Unu ga-enwebiga mkpụrụ ubi oke ruo na mgbe unu ka nọ na-eri ndị ochie unu ga-ewezuga ha nʼakụkụ maka inye ohere iwebata ihe ubi ọhụrụ.
And old stores long kept will be your food, and you will take out the old because of the new;
11 Aga m eme ka ebe obibi m dịrị nʼetiti unu. Agaghị m asọ unu oyi.
And I will put my holy House among you, and my soul will not be turned away from you in disgust.
12 Aga m ejegharị nʼetiti unu, bụrụ Chineke unu, unu ga-abụkwa ndị m.
And I will be present among you and will be your God and you will be my people.
13 Nʼihi na abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu onye kpọpụtara unu site nʼala Ijipt, ka unu ghara ịbụ ndị ohu ọzọ. Etijiela m mkpọrọ igwe nke ịbụ ohu unu, mee ka unu bụrụ ndị ji nganga ejegharị.
I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt so that you might not be servants to them; by me the cords of your yoke were broken and I made you go upright.
14 “‘Ma ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ige m ntị, jụkwa imezu ihe ndị a m nyere unu iwu ya,
But if you do not give ear to me, and do not keep all these my laws;
15 ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ịgbaso ụkpụrụ m, sọọ iwu m ndị a oyi, si otu a mebie ọgbụgba ndụ m,
And if you go against my rules and if you have hate in your souls for my decisions and you do not do all my orders, but go against my agreement;
16 mgbe ahụ, aga m eme ka oke ụjọ, na ọrịa na-ebibi ebibi, na ahụ ọkụ, bịakwasị unu. Ọrịa ndị a ga-eme ka anya unu daa mba, ọ ga-eripịakwa anụ ahụ unu. Unu ga-akụ mkpụrụ ubi nʼubi unu ma ndị iro unu ga-eri ha.
This will I do to you: I will put fear in your hearts, even wasting disease and burning pain, drying up the eyes and making the soul feeble, and you will get no profit from your seed, for your haters will take it for food.
17 Aga m eguzo megide unu nʼoge ibu agha, mee ka ndị iro unu merie unu nʼagha. Unu ga-agba ọsọ mgbe onye ọbụla na-adịghị achụ unu ọsọ. Ndị kpọrọ unu asị ga-achịkwa unu.
And my face will be turned from you, and you will be broken before those who are against you, and your haters will become your rulers, and you will go in flight when no man comes after you.
18 “‘Ọ bụrụ na unu anọgidesie ike ju ige m ntị nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a, aga m enye unu ntaramahụhụ dị okpukpu asaa nʼihi mmehie unu.
And if, even after these things, you will not give ear to me, then I will send you punishment seven times more for your sins.
19 Aga m etiji ịnya isi nganga unu, mee ka mbara eluigwe dịịrị unu dịka igwe, elu ala unu na-azọkwasị ụkwụ ga-adịkwa dịka bronz.
And the pride of your strength will be broken, and I will make your heaven as iron and your earth as brass;
20 Unu ga-adọgbu onwe unu nʼọrụ nʼefu, nʼihi na ala unu agaghị emepụtara unu ihe omume ya, osisi nke ala unu agaghị amịkwa mkpụrụ ya.
And your strength will be used up without profit; for your land will not give her increase and the trees of the field will not give their fruit.
21 “‘Ọ bụrụkwa na mgbe nke a mesịrị, unu anọgidekwa jụ ime ihe m nyere nʼiwu, aga m eme ka ntaramahụhụ unu dịrị ukwuu, ugboro asaa ọzọ, nʼihi mmehie unu.
And if you still go against me and will not give ear to me, I will put seven times more punishments on you because of your sins.
22 Aga m ezite anụ ọhịa megide unu. Ha ga-adọgbu ụmụ unu, bibie anụ ụlọ unu, meekwa ka unu dị nta nʼọnụọgụgụ, ruo na ndị a ga-ahụ nʼokporoụzọ unu ga-adị ole na ole.
I will let loose the beasts of the field among you, and they will take away your children and send destruction on your cattle, so that your numbers will become small and your roads become waste.
23 “‘Ọ bụrụkwa na unu anọgide jụ ịdọ aka na ntị m, chie ntị nọgide na-ebu agha nnupu isi unu megide m,
And if by these things you will not be turned to me, but still go against me;
24 mụ onwe m ga-ebu agha megide unu. Aga m eti unu ugbo ihe otiti asaa, nʼihi mmehie unu.
Then I will go against you, and I will give you punishment, I myself, seven times for all your sins.
25 Aga m ewebata mma agha nʼebe unu nọ, ịbọ ọbọ nʼihi ọgbụgba ndụ m unu mebiri. Mgbe unu ga-agba ọsọ gbaba nʼobodo unu, aga m ezite ihe mbibi ga-ebibi unu nʼebe ahụ. Aga m enyefekwa unu nʼaka ndị iro unu.
And I will send a sword on you to give effect to the punishment of my agreement; and when you come together into your towns I will send disease among you and you will be given up into the hands of your haters.
26 Aga m eme ka unu hapụ inwe ihe oriri ga-ezuru unu. Otu ite nri naanị ka ndị inyom iri ga-eji sie nri ha nwere. Ha ga-eji ihe ọtụtụ tụọ ya mgbe ha na-eke ya. Unu ga-eri ya, ma afọ agaghị eju unu.
When I take away your bread of life, ten women will be cooking bread in one oven, and your bread will be measured out by weight; you will have food but never enough.
27 “‘Ọ bụrụkwa na unu agaa nʼihu jụ ige m ntị nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a, nọgide na-emegide m,
And if, after all this, you do not give ear to me, but go against me still,
28 mgbe ahụ, aga m egosi unu oke iwe m, nye unu ntaramahụhụ dị okpukpu asaa nʼihi mmehie unu.
Then my wrath will be burning against you, and I will give you punishment, I myself, seven times for your sins.
29 Unu ga-eri anụ ụmụ unu ndị ikom, na anụ ụmụ unu ndị inyom.
Then you will take the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters for food;
30 Aga m ebibikwa ụlọ arụsị unu niile dị nʼelu ugwu, gbutuo ebe ịchụ aja niile unu na-esure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi. Aga m atụkọta ozu unu nʼelu arụsị unu na-enweghị ume ndụ, ka unu bụrụ ihe m na-asọ oyi.
And I will send destruction on your high places, overturning your perfume altars, and will put your dead bodies on your broken images, and my soul will be turned from you in disgust.
31 Aga m eme ka obodo unu niile tọgbọrọ nʼefu, kụdasịakwa ebe nsọ unu niile. Agaghị m anabatakwa isisi ụtọ nke aja unu.
And I will make your towns waste and send destruction on your holy places; I will take no pleasure in the smell of your sweet perfumes;
32 Aga m eme ka ala unu tọgbọrọ nʼefu, mee ka ọnọdụ ịdị ala unu bụrụ ihe ga-eju ndị iro unu ga-ebi nʼime ya anya.
And I will make your land a waste, a wonder to your haters living in it.
33 Aga m achụsa unu na mba niile, mịpụta mma agha m jiri ya chụso unu ọsọ. Ala unu ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu, a ga-etikpọkwa obodo unu niile.
And I will send you out in all directions among the nations, and my sword will be uncovered against you, and your land will be without any living thing, and your towns will be made waste.
34 Mgbe ahụ, ala ahụ ga-ezu ike, ogologo oge ndị ahụ niile ọ ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu. Mgbe unu ga-anọ dịka ndị ohu nʼala ndị iro unu. Ala ahụ ga-ezu ike, imejupụta afọ izuike ya niile.
Then will the land take pleasure in its Sabbaths while it is waste and you are living in the land of your haters; then will the land have rest.
35 Ogologo oge niile ala ahụ tọgbọrọ nʼefu, ala ahụ ga-ezu ike, ụdị izuike ọ na-enweghị nʼafọ izuike ndị ahụ unu bi nʼime ya.
All the days while it is waste will the land have rest, such rest as it never had in your Sabbaths, when you were living in it.
36 “‘Ma ndị ahụ fọdụrụ ndụ nʼime unu, aga m etinye ịda mba nʼobi ha nʼala ndị iro ha. Mkpọtụ ahịhịa nke ifufe na-ebugharị ga-eme ka ha gbapụ ọsọ. Ha ga-agba ọsọ dịka ndị si nʼihu mma agha na-agba ọsọ. Ha ga-ada mgbe onye ọbụla na-adịghị achụ ha ọsọ.
And as for the rest of you, I will make their hearts feeble in the land of their haters, and the sound of a leaf moved by the wind will send them in flight, and they will go in flight as from the sword, falling down when no one comes after them;
37 Nʼezie, ha ga-agba ọsọ mgbe onye ọbụla na-adịghị achụ ha ọsọ. Ha ga-adagide ibe ha mgbe ha na-agba ọsọ a, dịka ndị si nʼebe a na-alụ agha na-agbapụ ọsọ. Unu agaghị enwe ike iguzo nʼihu ndị iro unu.
Falling on one another, as before the sword, when no one comes after them; you will give way before your haters.
38 Unu ga-ala nʼiyi nʼetiti ndị mba ọzọ, ala ndị iro unu ga-eri unu.
And death will overtake you among strange nations, and the land of your haters will be your destruction.
39 Ndị ahụ a hapụrụ na ndụ nʼetiti unu ga-ata ahụhụ nʼala ndị iro ha nʼihi mmehie ha. Ha ga-atakwa ahụhụ nʼihi mmehie nke nna nna ha.
And those of you who are still living will be wasting away in their sins in the land of your haters; in the sins of their fathers they will be wasting away.
40 “‘Ma ọ bụrụ na ha ekwupụta mmehie ha niile, na mmehie niile nke ndị nna nna na ha na ha mehiere megide m, mmehie ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi ha, na mmehie nnupu isi ha, nke ha mehiere megide m,
And they will have grief for their sins and for the sins of their fathers, when their hearts were untrue to me, and they went against me;
41 nke mere ka m doo onwe m imegide ha, na izipụ ha gaa nʼala ndị iro ha, ọ bụrụ na ha eweda onwe ha ala nabata ntaramahụhụ m nyere ha nʼihi mmehie ha
So that I went against them and sent them away into the land of their haters: if then the pride of their hearts is broken and they take the punishment of their sins,
42 aga m echeta ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na Jekọb gbara, ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na Aịzik gbara, na ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na Ebraham gbara. Aga m echeta ala ahụ.
Then I will keep in mind the agreement which I made with Jacob and with Isaac and with Abraham, and I will keep in mind the land.
43 Ma ala ahụ aghaghị ịtọgbọrọ nʼefu. Ọ ghakwaghị inwezu izuike ruuru ya, oge ndị ahụ ọ tọgbọrọ nʼefu, mgbe ha na-ebighị nʼime ya. Ha ga-anata ntaramahụhụ ruuru ha nʼihi na ha jụrụ iwu m, sọọkwa ụkpụrụ m oyi.
And the land, while she is without them, will keep her Sabbaths; and they will undergo the punishment of their sins, because they were turned away from my decisions and in their souls was hate for my laws.
44 Ma ewezugakwa ihe ndị a niile, agaghị m ajụ ha, maọbụ sọọ ha oyi, ruo na ibibi ha kpamkpam mgbe ahụ ha nọ nʼala ndị iro ha. Agakwaghị m emebi ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na ha gbara nʼihi na abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha.
But for all that, when they are in the land of their haters I will not let them go, or be turned away from them, or give them up completely; my agreement with them will not be broken, for I am the Lord their God.
45 Kama nʼihi ha, aga m echeta ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ mụ na nna nna ha gbara, ịbụ Chineke ha, ndị ahụ m kpọpụtara site nʼala Ijipt nʼihu mba niile. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.’”
And because of them I will keep in mind the agreement which I made with their fathers, whom I took out of the land of Egypt before the eyes of the nations, to be their God: I am the Lord.
46 Ndị a bụ iwu, na ụkpụrụ na ndụmọdụ Onyenwe anyị guzobere nʼugwu Saịnaị, nʼetiti ya onwe ya, na ụmụ Izrel, site nʼaka Mosis.
These are the rules, decisions, and laws, which the Lord made between himself and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai, by the hand of Moses.
