Teutalonome 11

1 Ko ia ke ke “ʻOfa kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea tauhi maʻuaipē ʻene pule, mo ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, mo ʻene ngaahi fakamaau, mo ʻene ngaahi fekau.

Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always.

2 Pea ke mou ʻilo he ʻaho ni: he ʻoku ʻikai te u lea pe ki hoʻomou fānau ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo, pe mamata ki he tautea meia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ko ʻene māfimafi, mo hono nima mālohi, mo hono nima kuo mafao atu,

And know all of you this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,

3 Mo ʻene ngaahi mana, mo ʻene ngaahi ngāue, ʻaia naʻa ne fai ʻi loto ʻIsipite, kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea ki hono fonua kotoa pē;

And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

4 Pea mo ia naʻa ne fai ki he kautau ʻo ʻIsipite, ki heʻenau fanga hoosi, pea ki heʻenau ngaahi saliote; ʻa ʻene ngaohi ʻae vai ʻoe Tahi Kulokula ke lōmakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau tuli ʻakimoutolu, pea mo e fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni;

And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD has destroyed them unto this day;

5 Mo ia naʻa ne fai kiate kimoutolu ʻi he toafa ʻo aʻu ki hoʻomou hoko ki he potu ni;

And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until all of you came into this place;

6 Pea mo ia naʻa ne fai kia Tatani mo ʻEpilami, ko e ongo foha ʻo ʻIliapi, ko e foha ʻo Lupeni: ʻi he mafaʻa ʻe he kelekele hono ngutu, ʻo ne folo hifo ʻakinaua, mo hona kakai, mo hona ngaahi fale fehikitaki, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē naʻa na maʻu, ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ʻIsileli kotoa pē:

And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:

7 Ka kuo mamata ʻe homou mata ki he ngaahi ngāue lahi kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne fai.

But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.

8 Ko ia ke mou tauhi ai ʻae ngaahi fekau ʻoku ou fekau ai kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ni, koeʻuhi ke mou mālohi, pea ʻalu atu ʻo maʻu ʻae fonua, ʻaia ʻoku mou ʻalu ke nofo ai;

Therefore shall all of you keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that all of you may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where all of you go to possess it;

9 Pea koeʻuhi ke mou fakatolonga ai homou ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he fonua, ʻaia naʻe fuakava ai ʻa Sihova ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate kinautolu mo honau hako, ko e fonua ʻoku mahutafea ʻi he huʻahuhu mo e honi.

And that all of you may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that flows with milk and honey.

10 “Ka ko e fonua, ʻaia ʻoku mou ʻalu ke maʻu ia, ʻoku ʻikai tatau mo e fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻa mou haʻu mei ai, ʻaia naʻa ke tūtuuʻi ai hoʻo tengaʻi ʻakau, pea fakaviviku ʻaki ia ho vaʻe, ʻo hangē ha ngoue ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau kai:

For the land, where you go in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence all of you came out, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs:

11 Ka ko e fonua, ʻoku mou ʻalu ai ke mou maʻu, ko e fonua moʻungaʻia mo tokalelei, pea ʻoku ne inu vai ʻi he ʻuha mei he langi:

But the land, where all of you go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water of the rain of heaven:

12 Ko e fonua ʻoku tokangaʻi ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ko e fofonga ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻoku ʻafio maʻu ki ai, mei he kamataʻanga ʻoe taʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻoe taʻu.

A land which the LORD your God cares for: the eyes of the LORD your God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.

13 “Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau te mou faʻa tokanga ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau ai kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ni, ke ʻofa kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, pea ke tauhi ʻaki ia homou loto kotoa mo homou laumālie kotoa,

And it shall come to pass, if all of you shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

14 Te u tuku ai kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻuha ʻo homou fonua ʻi hono faʻahitaʻu totonu, ʻae ʻuha muʻa mo e ʻuha mui, koeʻuhi ke ke tānaki hoʻo uite, mo hoʻo uaine, mo hoʻo lolo.

That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.

15 Pea te u ʻatu ʻae mohuku ki he fonua ki hoʻo fanga manu, koeʻuhi ke ke kai pea ke mākona.

And I will send grass in your fields for your cattle, that you may eat and be full.

16 Vakai kiate kimoutolu naʻa kākāʻia homou loto, pea mou tafoki, pea tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, pea lotu kiate kinautolu;

Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and all of you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;

17 Pea tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova kiate kimoutolu, pea tāpuni ai ʻae langi, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻuha, pea ke ʻoua naʻa tupu ʻi he fonua hono ngaahi fua; pea mou ʻauha vave mei he fonua lelei ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu.

And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest all of you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.

18 “Ko ia ke mou ʻai ʻeku ngaahi lea ni ki homou loto mo homou laumālie, pea nonoʻo ia ki ho nima ko e fakaʻilonga, pea ke ʻiate koe ia ko e pale ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ho mata.

Therefore shall all of you lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

19 Pea ke mou ako ʻaki ia ki hoʻomou fānau, ʻo talanoa ki ai ʻoka ke ka nofo ʻi ho fale, pea ʻoka ke ka ʻeveʻeva ʻi he hala, ʻoka ke ka tokoto hifo, pea ʻoka ke ka tuʻu hake.

And all of you shall teach them your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

20 Pea ke ke tohi ia ki he ngaahi pou ʻoe matapā ʻo ho fale, pea ki ho ngaahi matapā.

And you shall write them upon the door posts of your house, and upon your gates:

21 Koeʻuhi ke fakalahi ai homou ngaahi ʻaho, mo e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou fānau, ʻi he fonua ʻaia naʻe fuakava ki ai ʻa Sihova ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe langi ki he māmani.

That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

22 “He kapau te mou hangahanga tauhi ʻae ngaahi fekau ni ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau ai kiate kimoutolu ke fai ki ai, ke ʻofa kia Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ke ʻalu ʻi hono ngaahi hala kotoa pē, pea ke mou pikitai kiate ia;

For if all of 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 cleave unto him;

23 Pehē ʻe toki kapusi ai ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē mei homou ʻao, pea te mou hoko ʻo maʻu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku lahi hake pea mālohi lahi ʻiate kimoutolu.

Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and all of you shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.

24 Ko e potu kotoa pē ʻe tuʻu ki ai homou ʻaofivaʻe ʻe ʻomoutolu ia: mei he toafa mo Lepanoni, mei he vaitafe, ʻae vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he tahi mamaʻo ko homou potu ia.

Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.

25 ‌ʻE ʻikai ha tangata ʻe faʻa tuʻu ʻi homou ʻao; koeʻuhi ʻe tuku ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻae manavahē kiate kimoutolu mo e lilika kiate kimoutolu ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻaia te mou hoko ʻo tuʻu ki ai, ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola kiate kimoutolu.

There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that all of you shall tread upon, as he has said unto you.

26 “Vakai, ʻoku ou tuku ʻi homou ʻao he ʻaho ni ʻae monūʻia mo e malaʻia;

Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;

27 Ko e monūʻia, ʻo kapau te mou talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni:

A blessing, if all of you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:

28 Pea ko e malaʻia, ʻokapau ʻe ʻikai te mou talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ka mou tafoki ʻo afe mei he hala ʻaia ʻoku ou fekau kiate kimoutolu he ʻaho ni, ke ʻalu ʻo muimui ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou ʻilo.

And a curse, if all of you will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which all of you have not known.

29 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻomi koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai ke maʻu ia, te ke ʻai ʻae monūʻia ki he moʻunga ko Kelisimi, mo e malaʻia ki he moʻunga ko Ipale.

And it shall come to pass, when the LORD your God has brought you in unto the land where you go to possess it, that you shall put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.

30 ‌ʻIkai ʻoku na ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, ʻi he hala ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hifo ai ʻae laʻā, ʻi he fonua ʻoe kakai Kēnani, ʻaia ʻoku nofo ʻi he toafa ʻo hangatonu atu ki Kilikali, ʻo ofi ki he ngaahi tafangafanga ʻo Mole?

Are they not on the other side Jordan, by the way where the sun goes down, in the land of the Canaanites, which dwell in the champaign opposite to Gilgal, beside the plains of Moreh?

31 He te mou hoko atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ke ʻalu atu ʻo maʻu ʻae fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, pea te mou maʻu ia, pea nofo ki ai.

For all of you shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you, and all of you shall possess it, and dwell therein.

32 Pea ke mou tokanga ʻo fai ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo e ngaahi fakamaau ʻaia ʻoku ou fokotuʻu ʻi homou ʻao he ʻaho ni.

And all of you shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.
