Deuteronomy 8
1 “Kowos in oaru in akos ma sap nukewa nga sot nu suwos misenge, tuh kowos fah ku in moul ac puseni ac utyak eis facl se su LEUM GOD El wulela kac nu sin papa matu tomowos.
Every commandment which I command thee this day shall ye take heed to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and enter in and possess the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers.
2 Esam kolyuk lun LEUM GOD lowos in fufahsryesr loeloes lowos sasla yen mwesis ke yac angngaul somla. El supu ma upa in srike kowos, tuh Elan ku in etu ma oan insiowos, ac lah pwaye kowos ac akos ma sap lal.
And thou shalt remember all the way which Jehovah thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or not.
3 El tuh oru kowos in masrinsral, na El kite kowos ke manna, sie mwe mongo ma kowos, ac papa matu tomowos, soenna kang meet. El oru ma inge in luti kowos lah mwet uh tia moul ke bread mukena, a ke kas nukewa ma LEUM GOD El fahk.
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with the manna, which thou hadst not known, and which thy fathers knew not; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread alone, but by everything that goeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.
4 Ke lusen yac angngaul inge, nuknuk lowos tiana mahi, ac niowos tia pac fafwak.
Thy clothing grew not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
5 Esam lah LEUM GOD lowos El aksuwosye kowos ac kai kowos, oana ke sie papa el kai tulik natul.
And know in thy heart that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy God chasteneth thee;
6 Ke ma inge, oru oana LEUM GOD El sapkin nu suwos! Moul fal nu ke ma sap lal ac arulana akfulatyal.
and thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 LEUM GOD lowos El uskowosme nu in sie facl wo — sie acn pus infacl ac unon in kof we, oayapa oasr kwakof ye fohk uh ma soror nu infahlfal uh ac infulan eol uh;
For Jehovah thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of water-brooks, of springs, and of deep waters, that gush forth in the valleys and hills;
8 sie acn ma oasr wheat, barley, grape, fig, pomegranate, olive ac honey we.
a land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig-trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey;
9 Kowos ac tiana masrinsral we, ku enenu kutena ma. Eot we uh oasr iron loac, ac kowos ku in pukanak copper ke eol srisrik we.
a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, where thou shalt lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose mountains thou wilt dig copper.
10 Ac fah pukanten mwe mongo nowos, ac kowos fah sang kulo nu sin LEUM GOD lowos ke facl na wowo El sot nu suwos.
And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless Jehovah thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
11 “Kowos in arulana karinganang tuh kowos in tia mulkunla LEUM GOD lowos; a kowos in arulana akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa lal su nga sot nu suwos misenge.
Beware that thou forget not Jehovah thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command thee this day;
12 Ke pacl se pukanten mwe mongo nowos, ac kowos musaela lohm wowo suwos ac muta loac,
lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built and inhabited fine houses,
13 ac ke puseni cow ac sheep nutuwos, silver ac gold lowos, ac kutepacna ma saya lowos,
and thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied,
14 taranna tuh kowos in tia inse fulatak ac mulkunla LEUM GOD lowos su uskowosme liki Egypt, acn se ma kowos tuh mwet kohs we.
then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget Jehovah thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
15 El pwen kowos sasla yen mwesis lulap ac aksangeng sac, yen oasr wet pwasin ac scorpion we. El oru kof in sororma liki sie eot wen nu suwos in acn pulamlam ac wangin kof we.
who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, [a wilderness of] fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there is no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
16 In acn mwesis uh El kite kowos ke manna, sie mwe mongo ma papa matu tomowos uh tiana kang meet. El oru in upa nu suwos in srike kowos, tuh Elan ku in akinsewowoye kowos tok ke ma wo.
who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
17 Ouinge, kowos in tiana nunku mu kasrup lowos uh ma ke ku ac etauk lowos sifacna.
— and thou say in thy heart, My power and the might of my hand has procured me this wealth.
18 Esam lah LEUM GOD lowos pa sot ku nu suwos in kasrupi. El oru ouinge mweyen El srakna karingin wulela lal nwe misenge ma El orala yurin papa matu tomowos.
But thou shalt remember Jehovah thy God, that it is he who giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
19 Kowos in tiana mulkunla LEUM GOD lowos, ku forla nu sin god ngia in alu ac orekma nu selos. Kowos fin oru ouinge, na nga fahk nu suwos misenge lah pwayena kowos ac kunausyukla.
And it shall be, if thou do at all forget Jehovah thy God, and go after other gods, and serve them, and bow down to them, I testify against you this day that ye shall utterly perish.
20 Kowos fin tia akos LEUM GOD, na kowos ac kunausyukla, oana mutunfacl ingo su El ac kunausla meet liki na kowos ilyak nu in facl selos.
As the nations which Jehovah is causing to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of Jehovah your God.
