< Deuteronomy 31 >
1 Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde tí ó sì sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí gbogbo Israẹli pé,
And Moses finished speaking all these words to all the children of Israel;
2 “Mo jẹ́ ọmọ ọgọ́fà ọdún báyìí àti pé èmi kò ni lè darí i yín mọ́. Olúwa ti sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ìwọ kò ní kọjá Jordani.’
and said to them, I am this day a hundred and twenty years [old]; I shall not be able any longer to come in or go out; and the Lord said to me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.
3 Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fúnra rẹ̀ ni yóò rékọjá fún ọ. Yóò pa àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yìí run níwájú rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì mú ìní ilẹ̀ wọn, Joṣua náà yóò rékọjá fún ọ, bí Olúwa ti sọ.
The Lord thy God who goes before thee, he shall destroy these nations before thee, and thou shalt inherit them: and [it shall be] Joshua that goes before thy face, as the Lord has spoken.
4 Olúwa yóò sì ṣe fún wọn ohun tí ó ti ṣe sí Sihoni àti sí Ogu ọba Amori, tí ó parun pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ ẹ wọn.
And the Lord thy God shall do to them as he did to Seon and Og the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond Jordan, and to their land, as he destroyed them.
5 Olúwa yóò fi wọ́n fún ọ, kí o sì ṣe sí wọn gbogbo èyí tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún ọ.
And the Lord has delivered them to you; and ye shall do to them, as I charged you.
6 Jẹ́ alágbára kí o sì ní ìgboyà. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù tàbí jáyà nítorí i wọn, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ń lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ, Òun kò ní fi ọ́ sílẹ̀ tàbí kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀.”
Be courageous and strong, fear not, neither be cowardly neither be afraid before them; for [it is] the Lord your God that advances with you in the midst of you, neither will he by any means forsake thee, nor desert thee.
7 Nígbà náà ni Mose pe Joṣua ó sì wí fún un níwájú gbogbo Israẹli pé, “Jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà, nítorí o ní láti lọ pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí sí ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa búra fún àwọn baba ńlá a wọn láti fún wọn, kí o sì pín ilẹ̀ náà láàrín wọn bí ogún wọn.
And Moses called Joshua, and said to him before all Israel, Be courageous and strong; for thou shalt go in before this people into the land which the Lord sware to your fathers to give to them, and thou shalt give it to them for an inheritance.
8 Olúwa fúnra rẹ̀ ń lọ níwájú rẹ yóò sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ; kò ní fi ọ́ sílẹ̀ tàbí kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù má sì ṣe fòyà.”
And the Lord that goes with thee shall not forsake thee nor abandon thee; fear not, neither be afraid.
9 Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ òfin yìí kalẹ̀ ó sì fi fún àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ọmọ Lefi, tí ń gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, àti fún gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà ní Israẹli.
And Moses wrote the words of this law in a book, and gave it to the priests the sons of Levi who bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to the elders of the sons of Israel.
10 Nígbà náà ni Mose pàṣẹ fún wọn, “Ní òpin ọdún méje méje, ní àkókò ọdún ìdásílẹ̀, nígbà àjọ àwọn àgọ́.
And Moses charged them in that day, saying, After seven years, in the time of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,
11 Nígbà tí gbogbo Israẹli bá wá láti fi ara hàn níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ní ibi tí yóò yàn, ìwọ yóò ka òfin yìí níwájú wọn sí etí ìgbọ́ wọn.
when all Israel come together to appear before the Lord your God, in the place which the Lord shall choose, ye shall read this law before all Israel in their ears,
12 Pe àwọn ènìyàn jọ àwọn ọkùnrin, àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn àjèjì tí ń gbé àwọn ìlú u yín kí wọn lè fetí sí i kí wọn sì lè kọ́ láti bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ kí wọn sì rọra tẹ̀lé gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ òfin yìí.
having assembled the people, the men, and the women, and the children, and the stranger that is in your cities, that they may hear, and that they may learn to fear the Lord your God; and they shall hearken to do all the words of this law.
13 Àwọn ọmọ wọn tí wọn kò mọ òfin yìí, gbọdọ̀ gbọ́ kí wọn sì kọ́ láti bẹ̀rù Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ níwọ̀n ìgbà tí o tí ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ tí ò ń kọjá la Jordani lọ láti ni.”
And their sons who have not known shall hear, and shall learn to fear the Lord thy God all the days that they live upon the land, into which ye go over Jordan to inherit it.
14 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé, “Ọjọ́ ikú rẹ ti súnmọ́ etílé báyìí. Pe Joṣua kí ẹ sì fi ara yín hàn nínú àgọ́ àjọ, níbi tí èmi yóò ti fi àṣẹ fún un.” Nígbà náà ni Mose àti Joṣua wá, wọ́n sì fi ara wọn hàn níbi àgọ́ àjọ.
And the Lord said to Moses, Behold, the days of thy death are at hand; call Joshua, and stand ye by the doors of the tabernacle of testimony, and I will give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went to the tabernacle of testimony, and stood by the doors of the tabernacle of testimony.
15 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa farahàn níbi àgọ́ ní ọ̀wọ́ àwọsánmọ̀, àwọsánmọ̀ náà sì dúró sókè ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́.
And the Lord descended in a cloud, and stood by the doors of the tabernacle of testimony; and the pillar of the cloud stood by the doors of the tabernacle of testimony.
16 Olúwa sì sọ fún Mose pé, “Ìwọ ń lọ sinmi pẹ̀lú àwọn baba à rẹ, àwọn wọ̀nyí yóò sì ṣe àgbèrè ara wọn sí ọlọ́run àjèjì ilẹ̀ tí wọn ń wọ̀ lọ láìpẹ́. Wọn yóò kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀ wọn yóò sì da májẹ̀mú tí mo bá wọn dá.
And the Lord said to Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, and this people will arise and go a whoring after the strange gods of the land, into which they are entering: and they will forsake me, and break my covenant, which I made with them.
17 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni èmi yóò bínú sí wọn èmi yóò sì kọ̀ wọ́n sílẹ̀; èmi yóò pa ojú mi mọ́ kúrò fún wọn, wọn yóò sì parun. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àjálù àti ìṣòro yóò wá sórí wọn, àti ní ọjọ́ náà ni wọn yóò béèrè pé, ‘Ǹjẹ́ ìpọ́njú wọ̀nyí kò wá sórí i wa nítorí Ọlọ́run wa kò sí pẹ̀lú u wa?’
And I will be very angry with them in that day, and I will leave them and turn my face away from them, and they shall be devoured; and many evils and afflictions shall come upon them; and they shall say in that day, Because the Lord my God is not with me, these evils have come upon me.
18 Èmi yóò sì pa ojú mi mọ́ dájúdájú ní ọjọ́ náà nítorí i gbogbo ìwà búburú wọn ní yíyípadà sí ọlọ́run mìíràn.
And I will surely turn away my face from them in that day, because of all their evil doings which they have done, because they turned aside after strange gods.
19 “Ní báyìí kọ ọ́ kalẹ̀ fúnra à rẹ orin yìí kí o sì kọ ọ́ sí Israẹli kí o sì jẹ́ kí wọn kọ ọ́ kí ó lè jẹ́ ẹ̀rí ì mi sí wọn.
And now write the words of this song, and teach it to the children of Israel, and ye shall put it into their mouth, that this song may witness for me among the children of Israel to their face.
20 Nígbà tí mo ti mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ tí ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin, ilẹ̀ tí mo ti ṣe ìlérí ní ìbúra fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn, àti nígbà tí wọ́n bá jẹ, tí ó sì tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn, tí wọ́n sì gbilẹ̀, wọn yóò yí padà sí ọlọ́run mìíràn wọn yóò sì sìn wọ́n, wọn yóò kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, wọn yóò sì da májẹ̀mú mi.
For I will bring them into the good land, which I sware to their fathers, to give to them a land flowing with milk and honey: and they shall eat and be filled and satisfy [themselves]; then will they turn aside after other gods, and serve them, and they will provoke me, and break my covenant.
21 Àti nígbà tí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìpọ́njú àti ìṣòro bá wá sórí i wọn, orin yìí yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀rí sí wọn, nítorí kò ní di ìgbàgbé fún àwọn ọmọ wọn. Mo mọ̀ ohun tí wọ́n ní inú dídùn sí láti ṣe, pàápàá kí èmi tó mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ tí mo ṣe ìlérí fún wọn lórí ìbúra.”
And this song shall stand up to witness against them; for they shall not forget it out of their mouth, or out of the mouth of their seed; for I know their wickedness, what they are doing here this day, before I have brought them into the good land, which I sware to their fathers.
22 Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ orin yìí kalẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ náà ó sì kọ ọ́ sí Israẹli.
And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel.
23 Olúwa sì fún Joṣua ọmọ Nuni ní àṣẹ yìí: “Jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà, nítorí ìwọ yóò mú Israẹli wá sí ilẹ̀ tí mo ṣèlérí fún wọn lórí ìbúra, èmi fúnra à mi yóò sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”
And he charged Joshua, and said, Be courageous and strong, for thou shalt bring the sons of Israel into the land, which the Lord sware to them, and he shall be with thee.
24 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Mose ti parí i kíkọ ọ̀rọ̀ òfin yìí sínú ìwé láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ dé òpin,
And when Moses finished writing all the words of this law in a book, even to the end,
25 ó sì fi àṣẹ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí wọ́n ń gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa:
then he charged the Levites who bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying,
26 “Gba ìwé òfin yìí kí o sì fi sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ. Níbẹ̀ ni yóò wà bí ẹ̀rí sí ọ.
Take the book of this law, and ye shall put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God; and it shall be there among you for a testimony.
27 Nítorí mo mọ irú ọlọ̀tẹ̀ àti ọlọ́rùn líle tí ẹ jẹ́. Bí o bá ṣe ọlọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa nígbà tí mo pàpà wà láyé pẹ̀lú yín, báwo ní ẹ ó ti ṣe ọlọ̀tẹ̀ tó nígbà tí mo bá kú tán!
For I know thy provocation, and thy stiff neck; for yet during my life with you at this day, ye have been provoking in your conduct toward God: how shall ye not also be so after my death?
28 Ẹ péjọpọ̀ síwájú mi gbogbo àgbà ẹ̀yà yín àti àwọn aláṣẹ yín, kí èmi lè sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ́ wọn.
Gather together to me the heads of your tribes, and your elders, and your judges, and your officers, that I may speak in their ears all these words; and I call both heaven and earth to witness against them.
29 Nítorí tí mo mọ̀ pé lẹ́yìn ikú mi, ó dájú pé ìwọ yóò padà di ìbàjẹ́ pátápátá, ẹ ó sì yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀nà tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún un yín. Ní ọjọ́ tó ń bọ̀, ìpọ́njú yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ sórí i yín nítorí ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa ẹ ó sì mú u bínú nípa ohun tí ọwọ́ yín ti ṣe.”
For I know that after my death ye will utterly transgress, and turn aside out of the way which I have commanded you; and evils shall come upon you in the latter days, because ye will do evil before the Lord, to provoke him to anger by the works of your hands. And Moses spoke all the words of this song even to the end, in the ears of the whole assembly.
30 Mose sì ka ọ̀rọ̀ inú orin yìí láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ títí dé òpin sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ gbogbo ìjọ Israẹli:
