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.
I [am] the Lord your God: you shall not make to yourselves gods made with hands, or graven; neither shall you rear up a pillar for yourselves, neither shall you set up a stone [for] an object in your land to worship it: I am the Lord your God.
2 “‘Debenụ iwu niile m nyere maka ụbọchị Izuike m, sọpụkwaranụ ebe nsọ m. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
You shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.
3 “‘Ọ bụrụ na unu ejegharịa nʼụkpụrụ m, lezie anya debe iwu m niile,
If you will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, 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 will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield 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 your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and you shall eat your bread to the full; and you shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through your land.
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 peace in your land, and you shall sleep, and none [shall] make you afraid; and I will destroy the evil beasts out of your land,
7 Unu ga-achụ ndị iro unu ọsọ. Ha ga-ada nʼihu unu site na mma agha.
and you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you with slaughter.
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.
And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase tens of thousands; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
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 look upon you, and increase you, and multiply you, and establish my covenant 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 you shall eat that which is old and very old, and bring forth the old to make way for the new.
11 Aga m eme ka ebe obibi m dịrị nʼetiti unu. Agaghị m asọ unu oyi.
And I will set my tabernacle among you, and my soul shall not abhor you;
12 Aga m ejegharị nʼetiti unu, bụrụ Chineke unu, unu ga-abụkwa ndị m.
and I will walk among you, and be your God, and you shall 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 brought you out of the land of Egypt, where you were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.
14 “‘Ma ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ige m ntị, jụkwa imezu ihe ndị a m nyere unu iwu ya,
But if you will not listen to me, nor obey these my ordinances,
15 ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ịgbaso ụkpụrụ m, sọọ iwu m ndị a oyi, si otu a mebie ọgbụgba ndụ m,
but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgments, so that you should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,
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.
then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and [disease] that consumes your life; and you shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.
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 I will set my face against you, and you shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and you shall flee, no one pursuing 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 you still refuse to listen to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times 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 I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were 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 shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its 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 after this you should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to 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.
And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.
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 hereupon you are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,
24 mụ onwe m ga-ebu agha megide unu. Aga m eti unu ugbo ihe otiti asaa, nʼihi mmehie unu.
I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will strike you seven times for 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 bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of [my] covenant, and you shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.
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 afflict you with famine of bread, then ten women shall bake your loaves in one oven, and they shall render your loaves by weight; and you shall eat, and not be satisfied.
27 “‘Ọ bụrụkwa na unu agaa nʼihu jụ ige m ntị nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a, nọgide na-emegide m,
And if hereupon you will not obey me, but walk perversely towards me,
28 mgbe ahụ, aga m egosi unu oke iwe m, nye unu ntaramahụhụ dị okpukpu asaa nʼihi mmehie unu.
then will I walk with you with a froward mind, and I will chasten you sevenfold according to your sins.
29 Unu ga-eri anụ ụmụ unu ndị ikom, na anụ ụmụ unu ndị inyom.
And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall you eat.
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 render your pillars desolate, and will utterly destroy your wooden [images] made with hands; and I will lay your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall loathe you.
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 lay your cities waste, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will not smell the savor of your sacrifices.
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 lay your land desolate, and your enemies who dwell in it shall wonder at 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 scatter you among the nations, and the sword shall come upon you and consume you; and your land shall be desolate, and your cities shall be desolate.
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 the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation.
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.
And you shall be in the land of your enemies; then the land shall keep its sabbaths, and the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation: it shall keep sabbaths which it kept not among your sabbaths, when you lived 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 to those who are left of you I will bring bondage into their heart in the land of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as fleeing from war, and shall fall when none pursues 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.
And brother shall disregard brother as in war, when none pursues; and you shall not be able to withstand your enemies.
38 Unu ga-ala nʼiyi nʼetiti ndị mba ọzọ, ala ndị iro unu ga-eri unu.
And you shall perish among the Gentiles, and the land of your enemies shall devour you.
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 who are left of you shall perish, because of their sins, and because of the sins of their fathers: in the land of their enemies shall they consume 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 shall confess their sins, and the sins of their fathers, that they have transgressed and neglected me, and that they have walked perversely before 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
and I walked with them with a perverse mind; and I will destroy them in the land of their enemies: then shall their uncircumcised heart be ashamed, and then shall they acquiesce in [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.
And I will remember the covenant of Jacob, and the covenant of Isaac, and the covenant of Abraam will I remember.
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 I will remember the land, and the land shall be left of them; then the land shall enjoy her sabbaths, when it is deserted through them: and they shall accept [the punishment of] their iniquities, because they neglected my judgments, and in their soul loathed my ordinances.
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.
And yet not even thus, while they were in the land of their enemies, did I overlook them, nor did I loathe them so as to consume them, to break my covenant made with them; 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 I will remember their former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage before the nation, 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 my judgments and my ordinances, and the law which the Lord gave between himself and the children of Israel, in the mount Sina, by the hand of Moses.
