< 5 Mose 6 >

1 Yeinom ne ahyɛdeɛ, mmara ne nhyehyɛeɛ a Awurade mo Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ menkyerɛ mo na monni so wɔ asase a moretwa Yordan akɔtena so no,
Now these [are] the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye may do [them] in the land whither ye go to possess it:
2 sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a mo, mo mma ne wɔn mma bɛsuro Awurade mo Onyankopɔn mmerɛ dodoɔ a mote ase. Sɛ modi ne mmara ne nʼahyɛdeɛ nyinaa so a, mo nkwa nna bɛware.
That thou mayst fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life: and that thy days may be prolonged.
3 Montie, Ao Israel, na monhwɛ yie nni so sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɛbɛsi mo yie na mo ase atrɛ yie wɔ asase a nufosuo ne ɛwoɔ resene wɔ so sɛdeɛ Awurade, mo agyanom Onyankopɔn, hyɛɛ mo ho bɔ no.
Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do [it]; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Tie, Ao Israel, Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn yɛ Awurade koro.
Hear, O Israel: the LORD our God [is] one LORD:
5 Dɔ Awurade wo Onyankopɔn firi wʼakoma mu nyinaa ne wo kra nyinaa mu ne wʼahoɔden nyinaa mu.
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 Momma saa mmaransɛm a mede rema wo ɛnnɛ yi ntena mo akoma mu.
And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:
7 Momfa nhyɛ mo mma mu. Sɛ mowɔ fie anaa monam ɛkwan so, sɛ moda hɔ anaa mosɔre anɔpa a, monkyerɛkyerɛ wɔn.
And thou shalt teach them diligently to thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8 Monkyekyere no sɛ agyinahyɛdeɛ mmɔ mo nsa na momfa bi mmɔ abotire.
And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thy eyes.
9 Montwerɛ ngu mo fie aponnwa ne mo aboboanopono ho.
And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
10 Ɛrenkyɛre biara, Awurade mo Onyankopɔn de mo bɛba asase a ɔkaa ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma mo agyanom Abraham, Isak ne Yakob no. Ɛyɛ asase a animuonyam nkuropɔn a ɛnyɛ mo na mokyekyereeɛ ahyɛ so ma.
And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he swore to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou didst not build,
11 Wɔde nneɛma pa a ɛnyɛ mo na moyɛeɛ bɛhyɛ no ma. Mobɛto nsuo afiri abura a ɛnyɛ mo na motuiɛ mu, na mobɛdidi afiri turo a ɛnyɛ mo na moyɛeɛ mu ne ngo nnua a ɛnyɛ mo na moduaeɛ. Sɛ modidi mee wɔ saa asase yi so wie a,
And houses full of all good [things], which thou didst not fill, and wells digged, which thou didst not dig, vineyards and olive-trees, which thou didst not plant; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
12 monhwɛ yie na mo werɛ amfiri Awurade a ɔgyee mo firii nkoasom mu Misraim asase so no.
[Then] beware lest thou shouldst forget the LORD, who brought thee forth from the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
13 Ɛsɛ sɛ mosuro Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, na mosom ɔno nko ara. Ne din nko ara na momfa nka ntam.
Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.
14 Monnni anyame foforɔ akyi—anyame a wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔatwa mo ho ahyia no dea;
Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which [are] around you;
15 na Awurade mo Onyankopɔn a ɔwɔ mo ntam no yɛ Onyankopɔn ninkunfoɔ a nʼabufuhyeɛ no bɛhye mo na ɔbɛsɛe mo afiri asase so.
(For the LORD thy God [is] a jealous God among you) lest the anger of the LORD thy God should be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
16 Monnsɔ Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, nhwɛ sɛdeɛ moyɛeɛ ɛberɛ a na mowɔ Masa no.
Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted [him] in Massah.
17 Ɛsɛ sɛ modi Awurade mo Onyankopɔn ahyɛdeɛ so pɛpɛɛpɛ—monni mmara no mu nsɛm nyinaa so sɛdeɛ ɔde ama mo no.
Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of the LORD your God, and his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.
18 Monyɛ deɛ ɛtene na ɛyɛ wɔ Awurade ani so na biribiara awie mo yie. Na moakɔ akɔtena asase pa a Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ kyerɛɛ mo agyanom no.
And thou shalt do [that which is] right and good in the sight of the LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good land which the LORD swore to thy fathers,
19 Mobɛpam atamfoɔ a wɔte mo asase no so nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ mo sɛ ɔbɛyɛ no.
To cast out all thy enemies from before thee, as the LORD hath spoken.
20 Daakye bi, mo mma bɛbisa mo sɛ, “Saa mmara ne nʼahyɛdeɛ a Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn de ama yɛn yi aseɛ ne sɛn?”
[And] when thy son shall ask thee in time to come, saying, What [mean] the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD our God hath commanded you?
21 Monka nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ “Na yɛyɛ Farao nkoa wɔ Misraim, nanso Awurade nam anwanwatumi so yii yɛn firii Misraim.
Then thou shalt say to thy son, We were Pharoah's bond-men in Egypt: and the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand:
22 Yɛhunuu Awurade nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ nnwuma a ɔyɛ tiaa Misraim, Farao ne ne nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa.
And the LORD showed signs and wonders, great and distressing, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes:
23 Ɔyii yɛn firii Misraim sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔbɛtumi de asase a wahyɛ yɛn agyanom ho bɔ no ama yɛn.
And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he swore to our fathers.
24 Na Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ yɛn sɛ yɛnni mmara no nyinaa so na yɛmfa obuo ne anidie mma no sɛdeɛ ɛbɛma daakye asi yɛn yie sɛdeɛ ɛte ɛnnɛ yi.
And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as [it is] at this day.
25 Ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ yɛdi mmara no nyinaa a Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn, de ama yɛn no so a, ɛbɛma yɛayɛ ateneneefoɔ.”
And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.
