Deuteronomy 31
1 Nígbà náà ni Mose jáde tí ó sì sọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí sí gbogbo Israẹli pé,
And Moses went and spoke these words unto all 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 he said unto them, I am a hundred and twenty years old this day; I am not able any more to go out and come in; for the Lord hath said unto 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 it is who goeth over before thee; he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt dispossess them: Joshua it is who goeth over before thee, as the Lord hath 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 will do unto them as he hath done to Sichon and to 'Og, the kings of the Emorites, and unto their land, whom he hath destroyed.
5 Olúwa yóò fi wọ́n fún ọ, kí o sì ṣe sí wọn gbogbo èyí tí mo ti pàṣẹ fún ọ.
And the Lord will give them up before you; and ye shall do unto them according unto the whole of the commandment which I have commanded 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 strong and of a good courage, be not afraid and be not dismayed on account of them; for the Lord thy God it is that goeth with thee; he will not let thee fail, nor forsake 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 unto Joshua, and said unto him before the eyes of all Israel, Be strong and of a good courage; for thou must go with this people unto the land which the Lord hath sworn unto their fathers to give unto them; and thou shalt divide it for them as a possession.
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 it is that goeth before thee; he will be with thee, he will not let thee fail, nor will he forsake thee: fear not, nor be thou discouraged.
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 down this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and unto all the elders 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 commanded them, saying, At the end of [every] seven years, at the fixed time of the year of release, on 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 to appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he will choose, shalt thou read this law in the presence of all Israel in their hearing.
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.
Assemble the people together, the men, and the women, and the children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates; in order that they may hear, and in order that they may learn how they are to fear the Lord your God, and observe 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 that their children, who have not yet any knowledge, may hear, and learn to fear the Lord your God, all the days which ye live in the land whither ye go over the Jordan to possess 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 unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die; call Joshua, and place yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation, that I may give him a charge: and Moses and Joshua went, and placed themselves in the tabernacle of the congregation.
15 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa farahàn níbi àgọ́ ní ọ̀wọ́ àwọsánmọ̀, àwọsánmọ̀ náà sì dúró sókè ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́.
And the Lord appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of cloud; and the pillar of cloud stood at the door of the tabernacle.
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 unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers: and then will this people rise up, and go astray after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be in the midst of them, and they will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have 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 my anger shall be kindled against them on that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be given to be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall overtake them; and they will say on that day, Is it not, because my God is not in the midst of me, that these evils have overtaken me?
18 Èmi yóò sì pa ojú mi mọ́ dájúdájú ní ọjọ́ náà nítorí i gbogbo ìwà búburú wọn ní yíyípadà sí ọlọ́run mìíràn.
But I will assuredly hide my face on that day on account of all the evils which they have wrought, because they have turned unto other 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.
Now therefore write ye for yourselves this song, and teach it the children of Israel, put it in their mouth; in order that this song may become for me a witness against the children of Israel.
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 when I shall have brought them into the land which I have sworn unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and grown fat: then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and 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 it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles have befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouth of their seed; for I know their inclination which they have shown, even this day, before I have brought them into the land which I have sworn.
22 Nígbà náà ni Mose kọ orin yìí kalẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ náà ó sì kọ ọ́ sí Israẹli.
And Moses wrote down this song on the same day, and taught it 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 gave a charge unto Joshua the son of Nun, and said, Be strong and of a good courage; for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I have sworn unto them; and I will be with thee.
24 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Mose ti parí i kíkọ ọ̀rọ̀ òfin yìí sínú ìwé láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ dé òpin,
And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
25 ó sì fi àṣẹ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí wọ́n ń gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa:
That Moses commanded the Levites, the bearers of 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 this book of the law, and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may remain there against thee for a witness.
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 rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, have ye been rebellious against the Lord, and how much more 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.
Assemble unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers; and I will speak in their ears these words, and I will call as witnesses against them the heavens and the earth.
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 to a surety become corrupt, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and that the evil will befall you in the latter days, when ye do the evil in the eyes of the Lord, to incense him through the work of your hands.
30 Mose sì ka ọ̀rọ̀ inú orin yìí láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ títí dé òpin sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ gbogbo ìjọ Israẹli:
And Moses spoke in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.
