5 Mose 11
1 Monnɔ Awurade mo Nyankopɔn na munni nʼapɛde, ne mmara ne nʼahyɛde so bere nyinaa.
Therefore you shall love the LORD your God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always.
2 Nnɛ, muntie, sɛ ɛnyɛ mo mma na wonyaa osuahu, huu Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no nteɛso, ne tumi, ne basa kɛse, ne nsa a wateɛ mu;
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 nsɛnkyerɛnne a ɔyɛe ne nneɛma a ɔyɛɛ wɔ Misraim pɛɛ maa bi kaa Misraimhene Farao ne ɔman mu no nyinaa no;
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 dwuma a odii Misraim asraafo, wɔn apɔnkɔ ne wɔn nteaseɛnam no; sɛnea ɔmaa Po Kɔkɔɔ yiri faa wɔn bere a wɔtaa mo no ne sɛnea Awurade sɛee wɔn bere a wɔtaa mo no; ne sɛnea Awurade de ɔsɛe a to ntwa baa wɔn so no.
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 Ɛnyɛ mo mma na wohuu nea ɔyɛ maa mo wɔ sare so hɔ de kosii sɛ mubeduu ha yi;
And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until all of you came into this place;
6 ne nea ɔde yɛɛ Eliab a na ɔyɛ Rubenni no mma Datan ne Abiram bere a ɔmma asase buee nʼanom wɔ mo Israelfo no anim menee wɔn ne wɔn afi ne wɔn ntamadan ne biribiara a na ɛyɛ wɔn agyapade a nkwa wɔ mu no.
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 Mmom, ɛyɛ mo ankasa mo ani na mode ahu saa nneɛma akɛse a Awurade ayɛ yi nyinaa.
But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.
8 Enti munni mmara a merehyɛ mo nnɛ yi nyinaa so sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mubenya ahoɔden akɔfa asase a morebetwa Yordan akɔ so akɔfa yi,
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 na mo nna aware asase a nufusu ne ɛwo sen wɔ so a Awurade kaa ntam kyerɛɛ mo agyanom sɛ ɔde bɛma wɔn ne wɔn asefo no so.
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 Asase a morekɔ so akɔfa no nte sɛ Misraim asase a mufi so bae no a na mudua nnɔbae a mode mo nan twa suka te sɛnea moyɛ atomude turo no.
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 Na asase a moretwa Yordan akɔfa no yɛ mmepɔw ne abon a enya osu a efi ɔsoro.
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 Ɛyɛ asase a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, ani wɔ ho. Daa Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ani wɔ so fi afe no mfiase de kosi nʼawie.
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 Sɛ mufi nokwaredi mu di mmara a merehyɛ ama mo nnɛ yi so sɛ mode mo koma ne mo kra nyinaa bɛdɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, na moasom no a,
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 ɛno de, ɔbɛtɔ osu agu no asase so ne bere mu ama mo, na moatumi atwa mo awi, nsa foforo ne ngo.
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 Ɔbɛma mo sare pii na mo anantwi awe na mo nso mubedidi amee.
And I will send grass in your fields for your cattle, that you may eat and be full.
16 Monhwɛ yiye, anyɛ saa a wɔbɛtwetwe mo ama moakɔsom anyame afoforo na moakotow wɔn.
Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and all of you turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
17 Ɛno na ɛbɛma Awurade abufuw ahuru atia mo; na ɔbɛto ɔsoro mu, na osu rentɔ, na asase remmɔ aduan biara, na ɛrenkyɛ na moawuwu afi asase a Awurade de rema mo no so.
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 Enti momma me nsɛm yi ntim wɔ mo koma ne mo adwene mu. Momfa nkyekyere mo nsa sɛ nkae ade na momfa mmɔ abotiri.
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 Monkyerɛkyerɛ mo mma na monka ho asɛm nkyerɛ wɔn bere a mote fie ne bere a monam akwan so; bere a modeda hɔ ne bere a mosɔre.
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 Monkyerɛw ngu mo afi apongua ne mo abobow ano apon so,
And you shall write them upon the door posts of your house, and upon your gates:
21 sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔsoro da so kata asase ani yi, mo ne mo mma nkwa bɛware wɔ asase a Awurade kaa ho ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma mo agyanom no so.
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 Sɛ mudi ahyɛde ahorow a mede rema mo sɛ munni so; sɛ monnɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, nyɛ osetie mma no na munni no ni, yi so pɛpɛɛpɛ a,
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 ɛno de, Awurade bɛpam saa aman yi nyinaa wɔ mo anim, na mubetu aman a ɛsoso na wɔyɛ den sen mo no agu.
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 Baabiara a mode mo anan betia no bɛyɛ mo de. Mo ahye bɛtrɛw afi sare so akosi Lebanon, na afi Asubɔnten Eufrate akosi Ntam Po no.
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 Obiara rentumi nsɔre ntia mo, efisɛ sɛnea Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, ahyɛ bɔ no, ɔde mo ho huboa ne osuro bɛto asase no nyinaa so wɔ baabiara a mobɛkɔ.
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 Hwɛ, nnɛ mede nhyira ne nnome resi mo anim;
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
27 sɛ mudi Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, mmara a merehyɛ ama mo nnɛ yi so a, ɛbɛyɛ nhyira.
A blessing, if all of you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
28 Na sɛ mopo Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn mmara dan fi nʼakwan a merehyɛ mo nnɛ yi so, kɔsom anyame afoforo a, ɛbɛyɛ nnome.
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 Na sɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, de mo du asase a morekɔ so akɔfa no a, monka nhyira nsɛm mfi Gerisim Bepɔw no so na monka nnome nsɛm nso mfi Ebal Bepɔw so.
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 Sɛnea munim no, mmepɔw abien yi wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan agya wɔ atɔe fam, a ɛkyerɛ owitɔe na ɛbɛn More kwae wɔ Kanaanfo a wɔte Araba no asase so; faako a wɔn ani tua Gilgal no.
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 Moreyɛ atwa Yordan akɔfa asase a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, de rema mo no. Sɛ mokɔfa saa asase no kɔtena so a,
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 monhwɛ yiye na munni mmara ne ahyɛde ahorow a mede rema mo nnɛ yi no nyinaa so.
And all of you shall observe to do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.
