< Deuteronomy 13 >

1 Bí wòlíì tàbí alásọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa àlá lílá bá farahàn láàrín yín, tí ó sì ń kéde iṣẹ́ àmì tàbí iṣẹ́ ìyanu,
If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams — and he give thee a sign or a wonder,
2 bí iṣẹ́ àmì tàbí iṣẹ́ ìyanu tí ó sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ bá ṣẹ tí òun sì wí pé, “ẹ wá ẹ jẹ́ kí a tẹ̀lé ọlọ́run mìíràn” (àwọn ọlọ́run tí ẹ kò mọ̀ rí) “kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí a máa sìn wọ́n,”
and the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spoke unto thee — saying: 'Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them';
3 ẹ má fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ wòlíì tàbí àlá náà, Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ń dán an yín wò ni, láti mọ̀ bóyá ẹ fẹ́ràn rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú gbogbo àyà yín àti gbogbo ọkàn an yín.
thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams; for the LORD your God putteth you to proof, to know whether ye do love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4 Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ni kí ẹ tẹ̀lé, Òun ni kí ẹ bu ọlá fún, ẹ pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́ kí ẹ sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀, ẹ sìn ín, kí ẹ sì dìímú ṣinṣin.
After the LORD your God shall ye walk, and Him shall ye fear, and His commandments shall ye keep, and unto His voice shall ye hearken, and Him shall ye serve, and unto Him shall ye cleave.
5 Wòlíì náà tàbí alálàá náà ni kí ẹ pa, nítorí pé wàásù ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, tí ó mú yín jáde láti Ejibiti wá, tí ó sì rà yín padà lóko ẹrú. Ó ti gbìyànjú láti fà yín kúrò lójú ọ̀nà tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ti pàṣẹ fún un yín láti máa rìn. Ẹ gbọdọ̀ yọ ibi náà kúrò láàrín yín.
And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken perversion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bondage, to draw thee aside out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
6 Bí arákùnrin tìrẹ gan an ọmọ ìyá rẹ tàbí ọmọ rẹ ọkùnrin tàbí obìnrin, aya tí o fẹ́ràn jù, tàbí ọ̀rẹ́ tímọ́tímọ́ bá tàn ọ́ jẹ níkọ̀kọ̀ wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí a lọ sin ọlọ́run mìíràn” (ọlọ́run tí ìwọ tàbí baba rẹ kò mọ̀,
If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, that is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying: 'Let us go and serve other gods,' which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
7 ọlọ́run àwọn tí ó wà láyìíká yín, yálà wọ́n jìnnà tàbí wọ́n wà nítòsí, láti òpin ilẹ̀ kan dé òmíràn),
of the gods of the peoples that are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
8 má ṣe fetí sí i, má sì dá sí i, má ṣe dáàbò bò ó.
thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him;
9 Ṣùgbọ́n pípa ni kí o pa á. Ọwọ́ rẹ ni yóò kọ́kọ́ wà lára rẹ̀ láti pa á, lẹ́yìn náà ọwọ́ gbogbo ènìyàn.
but thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
10 Sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa nítorí pé ó gbìyànjú láti fà ọ́ kúrò lẹ́yìn Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, tí ó mú ọ jáde ti Ejibiti wá kúrò ní oko ẹrú.
And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to draw thee away from the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
11 Gbogbo Israẹli yóò sì gbọ́, ẹ̀rù yóò sì bà wọ́n, kò sì sí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín tí yóò dán irú ibi bẹ́ẹ̀ wò mọ́.
And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.
12 Bí ẹ̀yin bá gbọ́ tí a sọ nípa èyíkéyìí nínú àwọn ìlú u yín tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fún un yín láti máa gbé,
If thou shalt hear tell concerning one of thy cities, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to dwell there, saying:
13 pé àwọn ènìyàn búburú, ti farahàn láàrín yín, tí ó sì ti mú kí àwọn ènìyàn ìlú wọn ṣìnà lọ, tí wọ́n wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sin ọlọ́run mìíràn.” (àwọn ọlọ́run tí ẹ kò mọ̀.)
'Certain base fellows are gone out from the midst of thee, and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying: Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known';
14 Kí ẹ wádìí, ẹ béèrè, kí ẹ sì tọpinpin ọ̀rọ̀ náà dájúṣáká, bí ó bá jẹ́ òtítọ́ ni, tí ó sì hàn dájú pé ìwà ìríra yìí ti ṣẹlẹ̀ láàrín yín.
then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in the midst of thee;
15 Gbogbo àwọn tí ó ń gbé ìlú náà ni kí ẹ fi idà run pátápátá. Ẹ run ún pátápátá, àti ènìyàn àti ẹran ọ̀sìn inú rẹ̀.
thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
16 Ẹ kó gbogbo ìkógun ìlú náà, sí àárín gbogbo ènìyàn, kí ẹ sun ìlú náà àti gbogbo ìkógun rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ. Ó gbọdọ̀ wà ní píparun láéláé, ẹnikẹ́ni kò gbọdọ̀ tún un kọ.
And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the broad place thereof, and shall burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, unto the LORD thy God; and it shall be a heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
17 A kò gbọdọ̀ rí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún ìparun wọ̀n-ọn-nì lọ́wọ́ yín, kí Olúwa ba à le yípadà kúrò nínú ìbínú gbígbóná rẹ̀, yóò sì ṣàánú fún un yín, yóò sì bá a yín kẹ́dùn, yóò sì mú kí ẹ pọ̀ sí i, bí ó ti fì búra ṣèlérí fún àwọn baba ńlá yín.
And there shall cleave nought of the devoted thing to thy hand, that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of His anger, and show thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as He hath sworn unto thy fathers;
18 Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, tí ẹ̀yin sì ń pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́, tí mo ń fún un yín lónìí yìí, tí ẹ̀yin sì ń ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ lójú rẹ̀.
when thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all His commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God.
