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 this [is] the command, the statutes and the judgments which your God YHWH has commanded to teach you to do in the land which you are passing over there to possess 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.

so that you fear your God YHWH, to keep all His statutes and His commands which I am commanding you, you, and your son, and your son’s son, all [the] days of your life, and so that your days are prolonged.

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.

And you have heard, O Israel, and observed to do [them], that it may be well with you, and that you may multiply exceedingly, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you, [in] the land flowing with milk and honey.

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

Hear, O Israel: Our God YHWH—YHWH [is] one!

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

And you have loved your God YHWH with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.

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

And these words which I am commanding you today have been on your heart,

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 you have repeated them to your sons, and spoken of them in your sitting in your house, and in your walking in the way, and in your lying down, and in your rising up,

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

and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes,

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

and you have written them on doorposts of your house and on 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 has been, when your God YHWH brings you into the land which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to you great and good cities which you have not built,

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,

and houses full of all good things which you have not filled, and wells dug which you have not dug, vineyards and olive-yards which you have not planted, that you have eaten and been satisfied.

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

Take heed to yourself lest you forget YHWH who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants.

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

You fear your God YHWH, and you serve Him, and you swear by His Name.

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

You do not go after other gods, of the gods of the peoples who [are] around 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 your God YHWH [is] a zealous God in your midst—lest the anger of your God YHWH burns against you, and He has destroyed you from off the face of the ground.

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

You do not try your God YHWH as you tried [Him] in Massah.

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

You diligently keep the commands of your God YHWH, and His testimonies and His statutes which He has commanded you,

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 you have done that which is right and good in the eyes of YHWH, so that it is well with you, and you have gone in and possessed the good land which YHWH has sworn to your fathers,

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

to drive away all your enemies from your presence, as YHWH has spoken.

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?’

When your son asks you hereafter, saying, What [are] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments which our God YHWH has commanded you?

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 you have said to your son, We have been servants of Pharaoh in Egypt, and YHWH brings us out of Egypt by a high hand;

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 YHWH gives signs and wonders, great and severe, on Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his house, before our eyes;

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 has brought us out from there, in order to bring us in, to give to us the land which He had sworn 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 YHWH commands us to do all these statutes, to fear our God YHWH, for good to ourselves [for] all the days, to keep us alive, as [at] this day;

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

and it is righteousness for us when we observe to do all this command before our God YHWH, as He has commanded us.”
