Deotoronomia 26
1 Ary rehefa tonga ao amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ho lovanao ianao ka mandova azy ary monina ao,
“And it has been, when you come into the land which your God YHWH is giving to you [for] an inheritance, and you have possessed it and dwelt in it,
2 dia analao ny voaloham-bokatra rehetra amin’ ny tany, izay alainao avy amin’ ny taninao, izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao, ka ataovy an-karona; ary mankanesa ho any amin’ ny tany izay hofidin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hampitoerany ny anarany;
that you have taken from the first of all the fruits of the ground, which you bring in out of your land which your God YHWH is giving to you, and have put [it] in a basket, and gone to the place which your God YHWH chooses to cause His Name to dwell there.
3 dia mankanesa amin’ ny mpisorona amin izany andro izany, ka lazao aminy hoe: Manambara amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao aho anio fa tonga eto amin’ ny tany izay nianianan’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny razantsika homeny antsika.
And you have come to the priest who is in those days, and have said to him, I have declared to your God YHWH today that I have come into the land which YHWH has sworn to our fathers to give to us;
4 Dia horaisin’ ny mpisorona eny an-tananao ny harona ka hapetrany eo anoloan’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao.
and the priest has taken the basket out of your hand and placed it before the altar of your God YHWH.
5 Dia hiteny eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao ka hanao hoe: Syriana mpanjenjena no raiko, ka nidina tany Egypta izy, dia nivahiny tany mbamin’ ny olom-bitsy; ary tany izy no tonga firenena lehibe sy mahery sady maro isa.
And you have answered and said before your God YHWH, My father [is] a perishing Aramean! And he goes down to Egypt, and sojourns there with few men, and becomes a great, mighty, and populous nation there;
6 Ary nanao ratsy tamintsika ny Egyptiana ka nampahory antsika sy nampanao antsika fanompoana mafy.
and the Egyptians do us evil, and afflict us, and put hard service on us;
7 Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razantsika, isika, ka nihaino ny feontsika Izy ary nijery ny alahelontsika sy ny asantsika ary ny fahoriantsika;
and we cry to YHWH, God of our fathers, and YHWH hears our voice, and sees our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression;
8 ary tanana mahery sy sandry nahinjitra sy fampahatahorana lehibe sy famantarana ary fahagagana no nitondran’ i Jehovah antsika nivoaka avy tany Egypta,
and YHWH brings us out from Egypt by a strong hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great fear, and by signs, and by wonders,
9 dia nitondra antsika niditra teto amin’ ity tany ity Izy ka nanome antsika ity tany ity, dia tany tondra-dronono sy tantely.
and He brings us to this place, and gives this land to us—a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Ary ankehitriny, Jehovah ô, indro, efa nentiko ny voaloham-bokatra amin’ ny tany izay nomenao ahy. Dia avelao eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ny zavatra, ary mivavaha eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao.
And now, behold, I have brought in the first of the fruits of the ground which you have given to me, O YHWH. (And you have placed it before your God YHWH, and bowed yourself before your God YHWH,
11 Ary mifalia amin’ ny soa rehetra izay nomen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao sy ny ankohonanao ianao sy ny Levita mbamin’ ny vahiny eo aminao.
and rejoiced in all the good which your God YHWH has given to you and to your house—you, and the Levite, and the sojourner who [is] in your midst.)
12 Rehefa voangonao ny fahafolon-karena rehetra avy amin’ ny vokatrao amin’ ny taona fahatelo, izay taona fanangonana ny fahafolon-karena, dia omeo ny Levita sy ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena izany, mba hohaniny ao an-tanànanao, ka ho voky izy,
When you complete to tithe all the tithe of your increase in the third year, the year of the tithe, then you have given to the Levite, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, and they have eaten within your gates and been satisfied,
13 ary dia lazao eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao hoe: Efa navoakako avokoa ny zava-masìna tao an-tranoko ka nomeko ny Levita sy ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena, araka ny lalànao rehetra izay nandidianao ahy; tsy nandika ny didinao aho na nanadino azy.
and you have said before your God YHWH, I have put away the separated thing out of the house, and have also given it to the Levite, and to the sojourner, and to the orphan, and to the widow, according to all Your command which You have commanded me; I have not passed over from Your commands, nor have I forgotten.
14 Tsy nisy nohaniko teo amin’ ny fisaonako, na nentiko nivoaka teo amin’ ny fahalotoako, na nataoko fahan-kanina noho ny maty; fa efa nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitro aho ka nanao araka izay rehetra nandidianao ahy.
I have not eaten of it in my affliction, nor have I put away of it for uncleanness, nor have I given of it for the dead; I have listened to the voice of my God YHWH; I have done according to all that You have commanded me;
15 Tsinjovy ao amin’ ny fonenanao masìna any an-danitra, ka tahio ny Isiraely olonao sy ny tany izay nomenao anay araka izay nianiananao tamin’ ny razanay, dia tany tondra-dronono sy tantely.
look from Your holy habitation, from the heavens, and bless Your people Israel and the ground which You have given to us, as You have sworn to our fathers—a land flowing [with] milk and honey.
16 Anio no andidian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao hanaraka ireo didy sy fitsipika ireo; koa tandremo sy araho amin’ ny fonao rehetra sy ny fanahinao rehetra ireo.
This day your God YHWH is commanding you to do these statutes and judgments; and you have listened and done them with all your heart and with all your soul.
17 Efa nampiteny an’ i Jehovah ianao androany fa ho Andriamanitrao Izy, ka handeha amin’ ny lalany sy hitandrina ny lalàny sy ny didiny ary ny fitsipiny ianao ary hihaino ny feony.
Today you have proclaimed YHWH to be to you for God, that [you are] to walk in His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His commands, and His judgments, and to listen to His voice.
18 Ary Jehovah kosa efa nampiteny anao androany fa firenena rakitra soa ho Azy ianao, araka izay nolazainy taminao, mba hitandremanao ny didiny rehetra,
And today YHWH has proclaimed you to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, as He has spoken to you, that [you are] to keep all His commands,
19 sy hanandratany anao ho ambonin’ ny firenena rehetra izay nataony, ho fiderana sy ho anarana ary ho voninahitra ary mba ho firenena masìna ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao, araka izay nolazainy.
so as to make you highest above all the nations whom He has made for a praise, and for a name, and for beauty, and for your being a holy people to your God YHWH, as He has spoken.”
