Deuteronomy 7
1 “LEUM GOD lowos El fah uskowosla nu in facl se su kowos ac oakwuki we, ac El ac fah lusak mutunfacl puspis liki acn we. Ke kowos ac apkuranyang nu we, El ac fah lusak mutunfacl itkosr su yohk liki kowos ac ku liki kowos: mwet Hit, mwet Girgash, mwet Amor, mwet Canaan, mwet Periz, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus.
When YHWH your God shall bring you into the land where you go to possess it, and shall cast out many nations before you, the Hethite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, seven nations greater and mightier than you;
2 Ke LEUM GOD lowos El ac eisaloswot nu inpouwos ac kowos kutangulosla, kowos in onelosla nukewa. Nik kowos orek kupasr yorolos ku pakomutalos.
and when YHWH your God shall deliver them up before you, and you shall strike them; then you shall utterly destroy them: you shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them;
3 Nik kowos payuk sin kutena selos, ac nik kowos fuhlela wen ac acn nutuwos in payuk sin kutena selos.
neither shall you make marriages with them; your daughter you shall not give to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
4 Mweyen elos ac mau furokla tulik nutuwos an liki LEUM GOD in alu nu sin god ngia. Fin sikyak ouiya se inge, LEUM GOD El ac kasrkusrakak suwos ac sikikowosla pacl sefanna.
For he will turn away your son from following me, that he may serve other gods; so the anger of YHWH would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
5 Ke ma inge, kowos in kunausya loang lalos, ac fukulya sru eot mutal selos, pakiya ma akilenyen god mutan Asherah, ac esukak ma sruloala lalos.
But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, and dash their pillars in pieces, and cut down their Asherim, and burn their engraved images with fire.
6 Oru ma inge mweyen kowos mutanfahl mutal lun LEUM GOD lowos. Inmasrlon mwet fin faclu nufon, El sulekowosla in mwet saok lal sifacna.
For you are a holy people to YHWH your God: YHWH your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
7 “LEUM GOD El tia lungse kowos ac sulekowosla ke sripen kowos pus liki mutunfacl ngia — kowos pa mutunfacl se ma srik oemeet fin faclu.
YHWH did not set his love on you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples:
8 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El lungse kowos ac kena in karinganang wulela ma El tuh orala yurin papa matu tomowos, pa sis El tuh molikowosla ke ku lulap lal, ac aksukosokye kowos liki moul in kohs lowos ye poun tokosra lun Egypt.
but because YHWH loves you, and because he would keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, has YHWH brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9 Esam lah LEUM GOD lowos El mukena pa God, ac El oaru. El ac fah liyaung wulela lal, ac fahkak lungse kawil lal nu sin tausin fwil selos su lungse El ac akos ma sap lal.
Know therefore that YHWH your God, he is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness with them who love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
10 Tusruktu El ac tia pahtlac in kalyaelos su srungal.
and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him who hates him, he will repay him to his face.
11 Ke ma inge, akos ma lutiyuk nu suwos. Akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa ma nga asot nu suwos misenge.
You shall therefore keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command you this day, to do them.
12 “Kowos fin porongo ma sap inge ac oaru in akos, na LEUM GOD lowos El ac fah karinganang na wulela lal nu suwos, ac fahkak lungse kawil lal nu suwos, oana El tuh wuleang nu sin papa matu tomowos meet ah.
It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that YHWH your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers:
13 El fah lungse kowos ac akinsewowoye kowos, na kowos fah puseni ac oasr tulik puspis nutuwos. El ac akinsewowoye ima lowos in pus wheat, wain, ac oil in olive; ac El ac fah akpusye cow ac sheep nutuwos. El ac fah asot nu suwos mwe insewowo inge nu kewa in facl se ma El tuh wulela nu sin papa matu tomowos mu El ac sot nu suwos.
and he will love you, and bless you, and multiply you; he will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
14 Wangin mutunfacl fin faclu ac fah insewowo yohk liki kowos. Wangin suwos, mukul ku mutan ku kosro nutuwos, ac fah talap.
You shall be blessed above all peoples: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
15 LEUM GOD El ac fah kosrala liki kowos kain in mas nukewa, ac kowos fah tia sifil maskin kutena mas upa ma kowos tuh pula in acn Egypt, tusruktu El ac fah sang mas inge nu sin mwet lokoalok lowos.
And YHWH will take away from you all sickness, and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you have seen and which you have known, will he put on you, but he will lay them on all who hate you.
16 Kunausla mutunfacl nukewa su LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu inpouwos, ac nik kowos pakomutalos. Nik kowos alu nu ke god lalos, tuh ma inge oana sie mwe kwasrip nu suwos.
You shall consume all the peoples whom YHWH your God shall deliver to you; your eye shall not pity them: neither shall you serve their gods; for that will be a snare to you.
17 “Nik kowos sifacna nunku mu mwet inge elos pus liki kowos, ac kowos tia ku in luselosla.
If you shall say in your heart, "These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?"
18 Nimet sangeng selos. Esam ma LEUM GOD lowos El tuh oru nu sin tokosra lun acn Egypt ac mwet lal nukewa.
you shall not be afraid of them: you shall well remember what YHWH your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt;
19 Esam mwe lokoalok yohk ma kowos tuh sifacna liye ke motowos, ac mwenmen ac ma usrnguk ac ku lulap su LEUM GOD lowos El aksukosokyekowosla kac. In ouiya se na ma El tuh kunausla mwet Egypt, El ac kunausla mwet nukewa su kowos sangeng se inge.
the great trials which your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which YHWH your God brought you out: so shall YHWH your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
20 El ac oayapa akfohsyauk mwet lokoalok lowos, ac El ac fah kunauselosla su kaing in wikwik.
Moreover YHWH your God will send the hornet among them until those who are left and hide themselves from you perish.
21 Ouinge, nimet sangeng sin mwet inge. LEUM GOD lowos El wi kowos. El sie God fulat, su fal mwet uh in sangeng se.
You shall not be scared of them; for YHWH your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God.
22 El ac fah kais kutu srisrik lihs mutanfahl inge ye motowos. Kowos ac fah tia ku in kunauselosla nukewa pacl sefanna, mweyen kowos fin oru ouinge, kosro lemnak uh ac mau puseni, na ac fah sie mwe sensen lulap nu suwos.
YHWH your God will cast out those nations before you by little and little: you may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
23 LEUM GOD El ac fah asot mwet lokoalok lowos nu inpouwos, ac akfohsyalosyak nwe ke elos kunausyukla.
But YHWH your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they be destroyed.
24 El ac fah sot tokosra lalos nu inpouwos. Kowos ac fah onelosi, ac elos ac fah mulkinyukla. Wangin mwet fah ku in sikulkowosi. Kowos ac fah onelosla nukewa.
He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name to perish from under the sky: no man shall be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.
25 Esukak ma sruloala lalos. Nik kowos mwel silver ku gold ma oan kac, ku eis lowos. Kowos fin oru, kowos ku in sruhfla kac, mweyen LEUM GOD El kwase ma inge.
You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to YHWH your God.
26 Nik kowos use kutena sin ma srungayuk inge nu in lohm suwos, tuh selnga se ma oan faclos ac oan fowos. Kowos in arulana srunga ac kwase ma sruloala inge, mweyen LEUM GOD El selngawi ma inge.
You shall not bring an abomination into your house, and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
