Deuteronomy 29
1 Èyí ni àwọn ìpinnu májẹ̀mú tí Olúwa pàṣẹ fún Mose láti ṣe pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní Moabu, ní àfikún májẹ̀mú tí ó ti ṣe pẹ̀lú u wọn ní Horebu.
These are the things that the Israelis were required to do to keep the agreement that Yahweh was making with them. Moses/I commanded them to keep this agreement [when they/we were] in the Moab region [on the east side of the Jordan River]. This was in addition to the agreement that Yahweh had made with them/us at Sinai [Mountain].
2 Mose pàṣẹ fún gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ó sì wí fún wọn wí pé, ojú rẹ ti rí gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa ti ṣe ní Ejibiti sí Farao àti, sí gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè e rẹ̀ àti sí ilẹ̀ ẹ rẹ̀.
Moses/I summoned all the Israeli people and said to them, “You saw [SYN] for yourselves what Yahweh did to the king of Egypt and to his officials and to his entire country.
3 Pẹ̀lú ojú ara rẹ ni ìwọ rí àwọn ìdánwò ńlá náà, àwọn iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá.
You [SYN] saw all the plagues [that Yahweh caused them to experience], and all the various miracles [DOU] [that Yahweh performed].
4 Ṣùgbọ́n títí di àsìkò yìí Olúwa kò fi ọkàn ìmòye tàbí ojú tí ó ń rí tàbí etí tí ó n gbọ́ fún ọ.
But until now, Yahweh has not enabled you to understand [the meaning of] all that you have seen and heard.
5 Nígbà ogójì ọdún tí mò ń tọ́ yín ṣọ́nà ní aginjù, aṣọ ọ̀ rẹ kò gbó tàbí bàtà ẹsẹ̀ rẹ.
For 40 years Yahweh has led you while you traveled/walked through the desert. During that time, your clothes and your sandals have not worn out.
6 O kò jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu wáìnì kankan tàbí rú ohun mímu mìíràn. Mo ṣe èyí kí o lè mọ̀ pé Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ.
You did not have bread to eat or wine or other fermented/strong drinks to drink, but Yahweh [took care of you], in order that you would know that he is your God.
7 Nígbà tí o dé ibí yìí, Sihoni ọba Heṣboni àti Ogu ọba Baṣani jáde wá láti bá ọ jà, ṣùgbọ́n a ṣẹ́gun wọn.
“And when we came to this place, Sihon, the king who ruled in Heshbon [city], and Og, the king who ruled the Bashan [region], came [with their armies] to attack us, but we defeated them.
8 A gba ilẹ̀ wọn a sì fi fún àwọn ọmọ Reubeni, àti àwọn ọmọ Gadi, àti ààbọ̀ ẹ̀yà Manase bí ogún.
We took/conquered their land and divided it among the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh.
9 Nítorí náà, ẹ pa májẹ̀mú yìí mọ́, kí ẹ sì máa ṣe wọ́n, kí ẹ̀yin kí ó lè máa rí ire nínú gbogbo ohun tí o bá ń ṣe.
“So faithfully keep all of this agreement, in order that you will be successful in everything that you do.
10 Gbogbo yín ń dúró lónìí yìí níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ: àwọn olórí yín, àwọn ẹ̀yà yín, àwọn àgbàgbà yín àti àwọn ìjòyè yín, àní gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin mìíràn ní Israẹli,
Today all of us are standing in the presence of Yahweh our God. The leaders of all our tribes, our elders, our officials, all you Israeli men,

your wives, your children, and the foreigners who live among you and cut wood for you and carry water for you, are here.

[We are here] today to promise to keep this solemn agreement with Yahweh.

[He is making this agreement with you] in order to confirm that you are his people, and that he is your God. This agreement is what he promised you, and which is what he vowed to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
14 Èmi ń ṣe májẹ̀mú yìí, pẹ̀lú ìbúra rẹ̀, kì í ṣe fún ìwọ nìkan
This agreement is not only with you.
15 tí ó dúró níbí pẹ̀lú wa lónìí níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ṣùgbọ́n àti fún gbogbo àwọn tí kò sí níbí lónìí.
He is making this agreement with us [who are here today] and also with our descendants who are not yet born.
16 Ìwọ fúnra à rẹ mọ bí a ṣe gbé ní Ejibiti àti bí a ṣe kọjá láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè nílẹ̀ ibí yìí.
“You remember [the things that our ancestors suffered] in Egypt, and how they traveled through the land that belonged to other nations [after they came out of Egypt].
17 Ìwọ rí láàrín wọn ìríra wọn, àwọn ère àti àwọn òrìṣà igi àti ti òkúta, ti fàdákà àti ti wúrà.
In those countries they saw those disgusting idols made of wood and stone and [decorated with] silver and gold.

So be sure that no man or woman or family or tribe that is here [today] turns away from Yahweh our God, to worship/serve the gods of those nations. Doing that would be like a root [of a plant that would grow] among you and bear poisonous and bitter fruit [MET].
19 Nígbà tí irú ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀ bá gbọ́ ìbúra yìí, kí ó gbàdúrà ìbùkún sórí ara rẹ̀ nígbà náà ni kí ó ronú, “Èmi yóò wà ní àlàáfíà, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé mo ti fi àáké kọ́rí nípa lílọ nínú ọ̀nà ti ara à mi.” Èyí yóò mú àjálù wá sórí ilẹ̀ tútù àti sórí ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ bákan náà
“Be sure that no one here today who hears this agreement thinks, ‘Everything will go well with me, even if I stubbornly do what I want to.’ If you are stubborn like that, the result will be that Yahweh will eventually get rid of all of you, both good people and evil people [MET].
20 Olúwa kì yóò ní ìfẹ́ sí àti dáríjì í; ìbínú àti ìtara rẹ̀ yóò jó ọkùnrin náà. Gbogbo àwọn ègún tí a kọ sínú ìwé yìí yóò wá sórí i rẹ̀, Olúwa yóò sì yọ orúkọ rẹ̀ kúrò lábẹ́ ọ̀run.
Yahweh will not forgive anyone who is [stubborn] like that. Instead, he will be extremely angry [DOU] with that person, and that person will experience all the curses that I have told you about, until Yahweh gets rid of that person and his family [IDM].
21 Olúwa yóò sì yọ òun nìkan kúrò nínú gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli fún àjálù, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ègún májẹ̀mú tí a kọ sí inú ìwé òfin yìí.
From all the tribes of Israel, Yahweh will separate that individual. Yahweh will cause him to experience all the disasters that I have listed in the agreement that states the things that Yahweh will do to curse [those who disobey] the laws [that I have written] in this scroll/book.
22 Àwọn ọmọ rẹ tí ó tẹ̀lé ìran rẹ lẹ́yìn àti àwọn àjèjì tí ó wá láti ilẹ̀ jíjìn yóò rí wàhálà tí ó wá sórí ilẹ̀ àti àwọn ààrùn pẹ̀lú tí Olúwa mú bá ọ.
“In the future, your descendants and people from other countries will see the disasters and the illnesses that Yahweh has caused to happen to you.
23 Gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà yóò di imí-oòrùn, àti iyọ̀, àti ìjóná tí a kò lè fi ọkàn sí, tàbí tí kò lè so èso tàbí tí koríko kò lè hù nínú u rẹ̀, yóò dàbí ìbìṣubú Sodomu àti Gomorra, Adma àti Seboimu, tí Olúwa bì ṣubú nínú ìbínú rẹ̀, àti ìkáàánú rẹ̀.
They will see that all your land has been ruined by burning sulfur and salt. Nothing will have been planted. Not even weeds will grow there. Your land will resemble Sodom and Gomorrah [cities], and Admah and Zeboiim [cities], which Yahweh destroyed when he was very angry [DOU] [with the people who lived there].
24 Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yóò béèrè pé, “Kí ló dé tí Olúwa fi ṣe èyí sí ilẹ̀ yìí? Kí ni a lè mọ ooru ìbínú ńlá yìí sí?”
And the people from those other nations will ask, ‘Why did Yahweh do this to this land? Why was he very angry [with the people who lived here]?’
25 Ìdáhùn yóò sì jẹ́ báyìí: “Nítorí tí ènìyàn yìí kọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run baba wọn sílẹ̀, májẹ̀mú tí ó ti bá wọn dá nígbà tí ó mú wọn jáde wá láti Ejibiti.
“Then other people will reply, ‘It is because they refused to keep the agreement that Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped], had made with them when he brought them out of Egypt.
26 Wọ́n lọ wọ́n sì sin ọlọ́run mìíràn, wọ́n sì foríbalẹ̀ fún wọn, ọlọ́run tí wọn kò mọ̀, ọlọ́run tí kò fi fún wọn.
Instead, they served/worshiped other gods that they had never worshiped before, gods that Yahweh had told them not to worship.
27 Nígbà náà ni ìbínú Olúwa ru sí ilẹ̀ wọn, dé bi pé ó mú gbogbo ègún tí a kọ sínú ìwé yìí wá sórí i rẹ̀.
So, Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people in this land, and he caused them to experience all the disasters that their leader warned them about.
28 Ní ìbínú àti ní ìkáàánú, àti ní ìrunú ńlá, Olúwa sì fà wọ́n tu kúrò ní ilẹ̀ wọn, ó sì lé wọn lọ sí ilẹ̀ mìíràn, bí ó ti rí ní òní yìí.”
Yahweh became extremely angry [DOU] with them and took/yanked them [MET] out of their land and banished them into another land, and they are still there.’
29 Ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀ jẹ́ ti Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, ṣùgbọ́n ohun tí a fihàn jẹ́ ti wa àti ti àwọn ọmọ wa títí láé, kí a lè tẹ̀lé gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ inú òfin yìí.
“[There are some] things that Yahweh our God has (kept secret/not revealed), but he has revealed his laws to us, and [he expects] us and our descendants to obey them forever.”
