Deuteronomy 6

1 “Pa inge ma sap nukewa LEUM GOD Iowos El sapkin nu sik in luti kowos kac. Akos ma sap inge fin facl se su kowos akola in utyak ac muta we.

And these [are] the commands, and the ordinances, and the judgments, as many as the Lord our God gave commandment to teach you to do so in the land on which ye enter to inherit it.

2 Ke lusenna moul lowos, kowos ac fwilin tulik nutuwos an in akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, ac akos ma sap nukewa lal ma nga sot nu suwos, tuh kowos in ku in muta paht fin facl sac.

That ye may fear the Lord your God, keep ye all his ordinances, and his commandments, which I command thee to-day, thou, and thy sons, and thy sons' sons, all the days of thy life, that ye may live many days.

3 Mwet Israel, kowos in lohng ma sap inge, ac akos! Na ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos, ac kowos fah ekla sie mutunfacl na ku, ac kowos fah muta in sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, in oana ke LEUM GOD lun papa tumasr El tuh wulela kac.

Hear, therefore, O Israel, and observe to do them, that it may be well with thee, and that ye may be greatly multiplied, as the Lord God of thy fathers said that he would give thee a land flowing with milk and honey: and these [are] the ordinances, and the judgments, which the Lord commanded the children of Israel in the wilderness, when they had gone forth from the land of Egypt.

4 “Lohng, O Israel! LEUM GOD, God lasr, El God sefanna.

Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord.

5 Kom fah lungse LEUM GOD lom ke insiom kewa, ke ngunum kewa, ac ke ku lom kewa.

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy mind, and with all thy soul, and all thy strength.

6 Nimet mulkunla ma sap inge su nga sot nu sum misenge.

And these words, all that I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart and in thy soul.

7 Luti kas inge nu sin tulik nutum. Alken in luti pacl kom oasr in lohm sum, pacl kom fufahsryesr, pacl kom mongla, ac pacl kom orekma.

And thou shalt teach them to thy children, and thou shalt speak of them sitting in the house, and walking by the way, and lying down, and rising up.

8 Kapriya kas inge ke poum ac ke motonsrum, tuh in mwe akesmakinye kom.

And thou shalt fasten them for a sign upon thy hand, and it shall be immoveable before thine eyes.

9 Simusla kas inge ke kosrusru in mutunoa ke lohm sum, ac ke nien utyak lun kalkal lom.

And ye shall write them on the lintels of your houses and of your gates.

10 “Oana ke LEUM GOD lowos el wuleang nu sin papa matu tomowos — Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob — El ac fah sot nu suwos sie facl ma siti we uh yohk ac sessesla ke mwe kasrup, su kowos tia musaiak.

And it shall come to pass when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware to thy fathers, to Abraam, and to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and beautiful cities which thou didst not build,

11 Lohm we ac fah sessesla ke ma wo, su tia ma kowos likiya loac. Ac fah oasr lufin kof su tia ma kowos pukanak. Ac fah oasr ima in grape ac olive ma kowos tia yukwiya. Na ke pacl se LEUM GOD El ac pwenkowosla nu in facl sac, ac kowos mongo ac kihp,

houses full of all good things which thou didst not fill, wells dug in the rock which thou didst not dig, vineyards and oliveyards which thou didst not plant, then having eaten and been filled,

12 taranna kowos in tia mulkunla LEUM GOD su pwenkowosme liki facl Egypt, yen kowos tuh mwet kohs we.

beware lest thou forget the Lord thy God that brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

13 Akfulatye LEUM GOD lowos, ac alu nu sel mukena, ac oru wulela lowos ke Inel mukena.

Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve; and thou shalt cleave to him, and by his name thou shalt swear.

14 Nimet alu nu sin kutena god saya, god lun mwet su raunikowosla.

Go ye not after other gods of the gods of the nations round about you;

15 Kowos fin alu nu sin god ngia, kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD fah tayak lain kowos oana e uh, na ac fah arulana kunauskowosla, mweyen LEUM GOD lowos su muta inmasrlowos El tia lungse in oasr kutena god sayal.

for the Lord thy God in the midst of thee [is] a jealous God, lest the Lord thy God be very angry with thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.

16 “Nimet srike LEUM GOD lowos, oana ke kowos tuh oru in acn Massah.

Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God, as ye tempted him in the temptation.

17 Kowos in arulana oaru in akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa ma El sot nu suwos.

Thou shalt by all means keep the commands of the Lord thy God, the testimonies, and the ordinances, which he commanded thee.

18 Oru ma suwohs ac wo ye mutun LEUM GOD, ac ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos. Kowos ac fah ku in eis facl mut ac wo fohk we su LEUM GOD El tuh wulela kac nu sin papa matu tomowos,

And thou shalt do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord thy God, that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and inherit the good land, which the Lord sware to your fathers,

19 ac kowos fah lusak mwet lokoalok lowos, oana El tuh wuleot nu suwos.

to chase all thine enemies from before thy face, as the Lord said.

20 “Ke pacl fahsru uh, tulik nutuwos ac fah siyuk suwos, ‘Efu ku LEUM GOD lasr El tuh sapkin nu sesr in akos ma sap inge nukewa?’

And it shall come to pass when thy son shall ask thee at a future time, saying, What are the testimonies, and the ordinances, and the judgments, which the Lord our God has commanded us?

21 Na kowos ac fah fahk nu selos, ‘Kut tuh mwet kohs lun tokosra lun acn Egypt, ac LEUM GOD El molikutla ac aksukosokye kut ke ku lulap lal.

Then shalt thou say to thy son, We were slaves to Pharao in the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought us forth thence with a mighty hand, and with a high arm.

22 Kut sifacna liye ke mutasr mwenmen El oru wi mwe aksangeng lulap nu sin mwet Egypt ac nu sin tokosra lalos ac mwet fulat nukewa lal.

And the Lord wrought signs and great and grievous wonders in Egypt, on Pharao and on his house before us.

23 El aksukosokyekutla liki facl Egypt ac uskutme nu inge, ac ase lasr facl se inge, oana ke El tuh wulela nu sin papa matu tumasr.

And he brought us out thence to give us this land, which he sware to give to our fathers.

24 Na LEUM GOD lasr El tuh sapkin nu sesr in akos ma sap inge nukewa, ac in akfulatyal. Kut fin oru ouinge, El ac fah karingin mutunfacl sesr ac oru in kapkapak pacl nukewa.

And the Lord charged us to observe all these ordinances; to fear the Lord our God, that it may be well with us for ever, that we may live, as even to-day.

25 Kut fin oaru in akos ma nukewa ma God El sapkin nu sesr, El ac fah insewowo sesr.’

And there shall be mercy to us, if we take heed to keep all these commands before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us.
