And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all His commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all the nations of the earth.

And all these blessings shall come upon thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

The LORD will cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thee; they shall come out against thee one way, and shall flee before thee seven ways.

The LORD will establish thee for a holy people unto Himself, as He hath sworn unto thee; if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in His ways.

And all the peoples of the earth shall see that the name of the LORD is called upon thee; and they shall be afraid of thee.
11 LEUM GOD El ac sot tulik puspis nutuwos, cow puspis, ac fokin ima yoklana in facl se ma El wulela kac nu sin papa matu tomowos in sot nu suwos.
And the LORD will make thee over-abundant for good, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, in the land which the LORD swore unto thy fathers to give thee.

The LORD will open unto thee His good treasure the heaven to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless all the work of thy hand; and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow.

And the LORD will make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if thou shalt hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them;
14 Tusruktu kowos in tiana kunausla ma sap inge in kutena ouiya, ku alu ac kulansupu god saya.
and shalt not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee.

The LORD will send upon thee cursing, discomfiture, and rebuke, in all that thou puttest thy hand unto to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the evil of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken Me.
21 El ac fah tia tui in supwama mas upa nu fowos nwe ke na wangin sie suwos lula fin facl se su kowos apkuran in oakwuki we.
The LORD will make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until He have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest in to possess it.

The LORD will smite thee with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with fiery heat, and with drought, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
23 Ac fah wangin af kakla, ac infohk uh ac fah kekela oana osra uh.
And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.

The LORD will make the rain of thy land powder and dust; from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

The LORD will cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies; thou shalt go out one way against them, and shalt flee seven ways before them; and thou shalt be a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth.
26 Pacl se kowos ac misa, won ac kosro lemnak ac fah tuku ac kangla monuwos, na ac fah wangin mwet in luselosyak.
And thy carcasses shall be food unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and there shall be none to frighten them away.

The LORD will smite thee with the boil of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.
28 LEUM GOD El ac fah oru kowos in wella, fohsak, ac kunla motowos.
The LORD will smite thee with madness, and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart.
29 Kowos ac fah kahlimin acn uh ke infulwen len oana sie mwet kun, ac kowos ac fah tia ku in konauk innek lowos. Kowos ac fah tia ku in kapak ke kutena ma kowos oru. Ac fah akkohsyeyuk kowos ac pisreyuk ma lowos, na ac fah wangin mwet in kasrekowos.
And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not make thy ways prosperous; and thou shalt be only oppressed and robbed alway, and there shall be none to save thee.
30 “Kom ac fah ako nu sin sie mutan fusr, a siena mwet fah payukyak sel. Kom ac musaela sie lohm, a kom fah tia muta loac. Kom ac fah yukwiya sie ima in grape, a kom fah tia kang fahko.
Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her; thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell therein; thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not use the fruit thereof.
31 Cow nutum ac fah anwuki ye motom, a kom fah tiana kang kutena ikwa kac. Donkey nutum ac fah amakinyukla ke kom ngetang na liye, a wangin sie mwet fah folokonot nu sum. Sheep nutum uh ac fah itukyang nu sin mwet lokoalok lom, na ac fah wangin sie mwet in kasrekom.
Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof; thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee; thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies; and thou shalt have none to save thee.

Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day; and there shall be nought in the power of thy hand.

The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed away:
34 Kom ac fah wella ke mwe keok ma orek nu sum.
so that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
35 LEUM GOD El ac fah afunla niom ke ruf mwaiok ma koflana mahla, ac faf ac fah afunla niom yak nwe ke sifom.
The LORD will smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore boil, whereof thou canst not be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the crown of thy head.
36 “LEUM GOD El ac fah uskowosla, oayapa tokosra lowos, nu in sie mutunfacl saya — sie facl ma kowos, ac papa matu tomowos, soenna muta we meet. Kowos ac fah kulunsupu kutu god ma orekla ke sak ac eot.
The LORD will bring thee, and thy king whom thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation that thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
37 Mwet in acn ma LEUM GOD El ac akfahsryekowoselik nu we fah arulana lut ke ma sikyak nu suwos. Elos ac isrun kowos ac aksruksrukye kowos.
And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples whither the LORD shall lead thee away.
38 “Kowos ac yukwiya fita puspis, a kosrani ma na pu, mweyen locust ac fah kangla fokin ima lowos uh.
Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
39 Kowos fah yukwiya ima in grape ac karinganang, tusruk kowos ac fah tia kosrani fahko ku nim wain kac, mweyen wet uh ac kangla oa in grape.
Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress them, but thou shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worm shall eat them.
40 Sak olive uh ac fah kap yen nukewa fin acn suwos, tusruktu ac fah wangin oil in olive lowos, mweyen olive uh ac mwella.
Thou shalt have olive-trees throughout all thy borders, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olives shall drop off.
41 Ac fah oasr wen ac acn nutuwos, tusruktu elos ac fah wanginla liki kowos, mweyen ac utukla elos oana mwet sruoh ke mweun.
Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but they shall not be thine; for they shall go into captivity.
42 Un won srisrik uh ac fah kangla sak sunowos ac sacn nukewa sunowos.
All thy trees and the fruit of thy land shall the locust possess.
43 “Mwetsac su muta in facl suwos uh ac yokelik ku lalos, a ku lowos uh ac fah sriksrikeni.
The stranger that is in the midst of thee shall mount up above thee higher and higher; and thou shalt come down lower and lower.
44 Ac fah oasr mani lalos ma kowos ku in ngisre, a ac fah wangin mani lowos elos in ngisre. Na ke saflaiya uh, elos ac fah leum fowos.
He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him; he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
45 “Mwe selnga inge nukewa ac fah tuku nu suwos, ac fah oan fowos nwe ke na kowos kunausyukla, mweyen kowos tia akos LEUM GOD lowos, ac tia liyaung ma sap lal nukewa ma El sot nu suwos.
And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou didst not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded thee.
46 Ma inge akilenyen ke nununku lun God nu suwos ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutuwos nwe tok.
And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever;
47 LEUM GOD El tuh akinsewowoye kowos in ma nukewa, a kowos tuh tiana kulansupwal ke inse engan.
because thou didst not serve the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all things;
48 Ouinge, kowos ac fah kulansupu mwet lokoalok su LEUM GOD El ac supwama in lain kowos. Kowos ac fah masrinsral, malu, ac koflufolla, ac kowos fah enenu ma nukewa. LEUM GOD El ac fah akkohsye kowos nwe ke na kowos kunausyukla.
therefore shalt thou serve thine enemy whom the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things; and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.
49 LEUM GOD El ac use sie mutunfacl yen loesla me in lain kowos — sie mutunfacl su kowos tia etu kas la. Elos ac sohkma nu fowos oana sie eagle.
The LORD will bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as the vulture swoopeth down; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
50 Ac fah wangin pakomuta lalos, ac elos ac fah tia akfulatye kutena mwet matu ku mwet fusr.
a nation of fierce countenance, that shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favour to the young.
51 Elos ac kangla cow nutuwos ac fokin ima lowos, ac kowos fah apkuran in misa ke masrinsral. Elos ac fah tia likiya kutena ma nowos, ke wheat, ku wain, ku oil in olive, cow ac sheep, na kowos ac fah misa.
And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground, until thou be destroyed; that also shall not leave thee corn, wine, or oil, the increase of thy kine, or the young of thy flock, until he have caused thee to perish.
52 Elos ac mweuni siti nukewa in facl se su LEUM GOD El ac sot nu suwos, na pot fulat ma kuhlusya siti lowos, ma kowos lulalfongi kac, fah ikori.
And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down, wherein thou didst trust, throughout all thy land; and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
53 “Ke pacl se mwet lokoalok lowos kuhlusya siti suwos, kowos ac arulana fosrngala ke sripen masrinsral, pwanang kowos ac kangla tulik nutuwos sifacna ma LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos.
And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters whom the LORD thy God hath given thee; in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall straiten thee.
54 Finne mukul na kulang se ma isusla ke sou leum, el ac fah srangesr kite tamulel lal sifacna, ku mutan saok kial, ku tulik lula natul
The man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil against his brother, and against the wife of his bosom, and against the remnant of his children whom he hath remaining;
55 ke ikwen tulik ma el kang, mweyen wangin kutepacna mwe mongo saya, ke sripen kuhlusyuki siti nukewa arulana paht.
so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he hath nothing left him; in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall straiten thee in all thy gates.
56 Finne mutan na oawe su tuku ke sou oaleum — ac ke sripen el kasrup el tia fahsr ke nial nu ke kutena acn — el fah srangesr kite mukul tumal su saok sel, oayapa wen natul ku acn natul sifacna.
The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil against the husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter;
57 Ke mwet lokoalok elos ac kuhlusya siti se mutan sac muta we, el ac arulana fosrngala ke masrinsral, oru el kangla tulik natul ma el tufahna oswela ac oayapa fuht kac in lukma, mweyen wangin pac kutena mongo saya.
and against her afterbirth that cometh out from between her feet, and against her children whom she shall bear; for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly; in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall straiten thee in thy gates.
58 “Kowos fin tia oaru in akos mwe luti nukewa lun God ma simla in book se inge, ac kowos fin tia sunakin Ine wolana ac mangol lun LEUM GOD lowos,
If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and awful Name, the LORD thy God;
59 El ac fah supwama mas upa ma tia ku in akkeyeyukla nu fowos ac nu fin tulik nutuwos — aok, mas lulap ma fisrasr in fahsrelik ac koflana tulokinyuki.
then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.
60 El ac sifilpa use nu fowos kain in mas keok nukewa ma kowos tuh pulakin ke kowos muta Egypt, ac kowos ac tiana ku in kwela.
And He will bring back upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast in dread of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
61 El ac oayapa supwama kain in mas lulap nukewa ma tia simla in book in ma sap ac mwe luti lun God, ac kowos ac fah kunausyukla ke mas inge.
Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
62 Kowos finne puseni oana itu inkusrao, a mwet na pu suwos fah painmoulla, mweyen kowos tuh tia akos LEUM GOD lowos.
And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou didst not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
63 Oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh engan in oru tuh kowos in kapkapak ac puseni, ouinge El fah engan pac in kunauskowosla wi ma lowos nukewa. Kowos ac fah fifyak liki facl se ma kowos apkuran in utyak nu we.
And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to cause you to perish, and to destroy you; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest in to possess it.
64 “LEUM GOD El ac akfahsryekowoselik nu inmasrlon mutunfacl nukewa apunla faclu nufon, ac ingo kowos fah kulansupu god ma orekla ke sak ac eot — god ma kowos, ac papa matu tomowos, tiana wi alu nu kac meet.
And the LORD shall scatter thee among all peoples, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers, even wood and stone.
65 Kowos ac tia konaok mongla wo ku misla in kutena acn. Kowos fah mwet mukaimtal ac wangin acn suwos. LEUM GOD El ac nwekkowosla ke inse fosrnga ac ke asor, na ac fah wanginla finsrak lowos.
And among these nations shalt thou have no repose, and there shall be no rest for the sole of thy foot; but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and languishing of soul.
66 Kowos fah moul in sensen pacl nukewa. Len ac fong kowos ac fah inse rarrar, ac kowos ac fah tia tui in sangeng ke misa.
And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear night and day, and shalt have no assurance of thy life.
67 Insiowos ac fah kihmkim ke sangeng ke ma nukewa kowos liye. Lotutang nukewa kowos ac kena in tari ekela. Ac eku nukewa kowos ac kena in tari lenelik.
In the morning thou shalt say: 'Would it were even!' and at even thou shalt say: 'Would it were morning!' for the fear of thy heart which thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
68 LEUM GOD El ac folokinkowosla nu Egypt fin oak uh, El ne fahk tari mu kowos ac tia sifil som nu we. Kowos ac fah srike in kukakinkowosla nu sin mwet lokoalok lowos we oana mwet kohs, tusruktu wangin mwet ac lungse molikowos in mwet kohs lalos.”
And the LORD shall bring thee back into Egypt in ships, by the way whereof I said unto thee: 'Thou shalt see it no more again'; and there ye shall sell yourselves unto your enemies for bondmen and for bondwoman, and no man shall buy you.
