Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 11
1 Yagalanga Mukama Katonda wo, ogonderenga ebigambo bye by’akukuutira, n’ebiragiro bye, n’amateeka ge ennaku zonna.
Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his instructions, his statutes, his ordinances, and his commandments, always.
2 Mutegeere nga ku lunaku lwa leero soogera na baana bammwe abataamanya era abataalaba ku kukangavvula kwa Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’ekitiibwa kye n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi, era ogw’obukuumi;
Know this day—for I do not speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm,
3 era abataalaba ku byamagero bye yakola n’ebintu byonna bye yakolera wakati mu Misiri, ku Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri n’eri ensi ye yonna;
his signs, and his works, which he did in the middle of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and to all his land;
4 ne bye yakola eggye lya Misiri n’embalaasi zaalyo n’amagaali gaalyo; era nga amaggye ago bwe yagazikiririza mu mazzi ag’omu Nnyanja Emyufu bwe gaali nga gabagoberera, n’agamalirawo ddala n’okutuusa leero.
and what he did to the army of Egypt, to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued you, and how the LORD has destroyed them to this day;
5 Abaana bammwe si be baalaba ebyo byonna Mukama bye yabakolera okuva nga muli mu ddungu n’okutuuka wano mu kifo kino,
and what he did to you in the wilderness until you came to this place;
6 era ne kye yakola Dasani ne Abiraamu batabani ba Eriyaabu, mutabani wa Lewubeeni, ettaka bwe lyayasamya akamwa kaalyo, wakati mu baana ba Isirayiri bonna, ne libamira n’ab’omu maka gaabwe bonna, n’eweema ez’ensiisira zaabwe zonna, ne buli kiramu kyabwe kyonna kye baalinako obwannannyini.
and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben—how the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the middle of all Israel;
7 Naye mmwe bennyini mwe mwabiraba n’amaaso gammwe, ebintu ebyo ebikulu Mukama by’azze akola.
but your eyes have seen all of the LORD’s great work which he did.
8 Noolwekyo mukwatenga amateeka gonna ge mbalagira leero, mulyoke mubeere n’amaanyi okuyingira mu nsi gye mujja okwefunira, nga mumaze okusomoka omugga Yoludaani,
Therefore you shall keep the entire commandment which I command you today, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land that you go over to possess;
9 bwe mutyo mulyoke muwangaalenga nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjammwe okugibawa awamu ne bazzukulu baabwe, ng’eyo ye nsi omukulukutira amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.
and that you may prolong your days in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Kubanga ensi gy’ogenda okuyingira, ogyefunire, tefaanaana ng’ensi y’e Misiri, gye mwava, gye wasimbanga ensigo zo n’ozifukiriranga n’ebbomba gye wasambyanga ekigere, ng’afukirira ennimiro y’enva.
For the land, where you go in to possess is not like the land of Egypt that you came out of, where you sowed your seed and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs;
11 Naye ensi gye mugenda okwefunira nga musomose omugga Yoludaani, ye nsi ey’ensozi n’ebiwonvu, enywa amazzi g’enkuba agava mu ggulu.
but the land that you go over to possess is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water from the rain of the sky,
12 Ye nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’alabirira. Amaaso ga Mukama Katonda wo gabeera ku nsi eyo bulijjo, okuva ku ntandikwa y’omwaka okutuuka ku nkomerero yaagwo.
a land which the LORD your God cares for. The LORD your God’s eyes are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
13 Bwe munaagonderanga amateeka gano ge mbalagira leero: okwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okumuweerezanga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna, n’emmeeme yammwe yonna,
It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to my commandments which I command you today, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 kale, anaatonnyesanga enkuba mu nsi yammwe mu biseera byayo: enkuba eya ddumbi n’eya ttoggo, olyoke okungulenga emmere yo ey’empeke, weefunire ne wayini omusu n’amafuta.
that I will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.
15 Era anaakuzanga omuddo mu malundiro go ente zo gwe zinaalyanga; naawe onoolyanga emmere n’okkuta.
I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
16 Mwegenderezenga nnyo, mulemenga okukyama ne mubula, ne muweerezanga bakatonda abalala era ne mubavuunamiranga.
Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn away to serve other gods and worship them;
17 Kale obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirangako, n’aggalangawo eggulu, enkuba ne tetonnyanga, n’ettaka ne litabalangako bibala, ne muzikiriranga ne muggwaawo mangu ku nsi ennungi Mukama gy’abawa.
and the LORD’s anger be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky so that there is no rain, and the land does not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.
18 Kale muterekenga ebigambo byange bino mu mutima gwammwe ne mu mmeeme yammwe; munaabisibanga ku mikono gyammwe ng’akabonero ak’okubibajjukizanga, era mubitekanga ne ku byenyi byammwe.
Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
19 Mubiyigirizenga abaana bammwe, ng’obinyumyako bw’onoobanga otudde mu nnyumba yo, ne bw’onoobanga otambula mu nguudo; ne bw’onoogalamirangako, era ne bw’onoositukanga.
You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
20 Era onoobiwandiikanga ku myango ne ku nzigi,
You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates;
21 mmwe n’abaana bammwe mulyoke muwangaalenga nnyo, mumale ennaku nnyingi nga ebbanga eggulu lye lirimala nga liri waggulu w’ensi, nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yasuubiza bajjajjammwe okugibawa.
that your days and your children’s days may be multiplied in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
22 Bwe muneegenderezanga, ne mugonderanga ebiragiro bino byonna bye mbawa okubikolanga: kwe kwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, n’okumunywererangako;
For if you shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you—to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him—
23 kale, Mukama anaagobangamu amawanga ago gonna aganaabanga mu maaso gammwe, ne mwefunira ensi z’amawanga ago agabasinga mmwe obunene era n’amaanyi.
then the LORD will drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
24 Buli we munaalinnyanga ekigere kyammwe, ekifo ekyo kinaabeeranga kyammwe; okuva ku ddungu okutuuka ku Lebanooni, n’okuva ku Mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nnyanja ey’ebugwanjuba.
Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the western sea shall be your border.
25 Tewaabengawo muntu n’omu anaasobolanga okubaziyiza. Mukama Katonda wammwe aliteeka entiisa n’ekikangabwa mu bannansi bonna, buli we munaagendanga, nga bwe yabasuubiza.
No man will be able to stand before you. The LORD your God will lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you tread on, as he has spoken to you.
26 Mulabe, ku lunaku lwa leero nteeka mu maaso gammwe omukisa n’ekikolimo.
Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse:
27 Omukisa, bwe munaagonderanga amateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe ge mbalagira leero;
the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today;
28 ekikolimo, bwe mutaagonderenga mateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, ne mukyamanga okuva mu kkubo lye mbalagira leero, ne mugobereranga bakatonda abalala be mwali mutamanyi.
and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn away out of the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.
29 Mukama Katonda wo bw’alikutuusa mu nsi gy’ogenda okuyingiramu ogyetwalire ng’obutaka bwo obw’enkalakkalira, omukisa oguteekanga ku lusozi Gerizimu, n’ekikolimo ku lusozi Ebali.
It shall happen, when the LORD your God brings you into the land that you go to possess, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
30 Ensozi ezo ziri mitala wa Yoludaani ku ludda olw’ebugwanjuba obw’oluguudo ng’oyolekedde enjuba gy’egwa, okumpi n’emiti eminene egy’e Mole, mu nsi y’Abakanani ababeera mu Alaba ku miriraano gya Girugaali.
Are not they beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites who dwell in the Arabah near Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
31 Muli kumpi okusomoka omugga Yoludaani mwefunire ensi Mukama Katonda wammwe gy’abawa. Bwe mulimala okugyetwalira, nga mwe mubeera,
For you are to pass over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you, and you shall possess it and dwell in it.
32 mwegenderezenga nnyo mugonderenga amateeka gonna, n’ebiragiro bye nteeka mu maaso gammwe leero.
You shall observe to do all the statutes and the ordinances which I set before you today.
