Deuteronomy 8
1 Ẹ kíyèsi i láti máa tẹ̀lé gbogbo àṣẹ tí mo fún un yín lónìí, kí ẹ bá à le yè, kí ẹ sì pọ̀ sí i wọ ilẹ̀ náà, kí ẹ sì le gba ilẹ̀ náà, tí Olúwa fì búra ṣèlérí fún àwọn baba ńlá a yín.
Ye shall observe to do all the commands which I charge you to-day, that ye may live and be multiplied, and enter in and inherit the land, which the Lord your God sware [to give] to your fathers.
2 Ẹ rántí bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ti tọ́ ọ yín ṣọ́nà ní gbogbo ọ̀nà ní aginjù fún ogójì ọdún wọ̀nyí láti tẹ orí yín ba àti láti dán an yín wò kí ó ba à le mọ bí ọkàn yín ti rí, bóyá ẹ ó pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́ tàbí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́.
And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee in the wilderness, that he might afflict thee, and try thee, and that the things in thine heart might be made manifest, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or no.
3 Ó rẹ̀ yín sílẹ̀ nípa fífi ebi pa yín, Ó sì fi manna bọ́ ọ yín, èyí tí ẹ kò mọ̀, tí àwọn baba yín kò mọ̀, kí ó ba à lè kọ́ ọ yín pé, ènìyàn kò ti ipa oúnjẹ nìkan wà láààyè, bí kò ṣe ohun gbogbo tí ó jáde láti ẹnu Olúwa wá.
And he afflicted thee and straitened thee with hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thy fathers knew not; that he might teach thee that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God shall man live.
4 Aṣọ yín kò gbó mọ́ ọn yín lọ́rùn bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ẹsẹ̀ yín kò sì wú, ní ogójì ọdún náà.
Thy garments grew not old from off thee, thy shoes were not worn from off thee, thy feet were not [painfully] hardened, lo! these forty years.
5 Ẹ mọ̀ ní ọkàn an yín pé, bí baba ti ń kọ́ ọmọ rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ń kọ́ ọ yín.
And thou shalt know in thine heart, that as if any man should chasten his son, so the Lord thy God will chasten thee.
6 Nítorí èyí, ẹ gbọdọ̀ pa òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín mọ́, nípa rínrìn ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀, àti bíbẹ̀rù rẹ̀.
And thou shalt keep the commands of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 Nítorí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ń mú un yín bọ̀ wá sí ilẹ̀ rere ilẹ̀ tí ó kún fún odò àti ibú omi, pẹ̀lú àwọn ìsun tí ń sàn jáde láti orí òkè àti pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀.
For the Lord thy God will bring thee into a good and extensive land, where there are torrents of waters, and fountains of deep places issuing through the plains and through the mountains:
8 Ilẹ̀ tí ó kún fún jéró àti ọkà barle, tí ó sì kún fún àjàrà àti igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́, igi pomegiranate, òróró olifi àti oyin.
a land of wheat and barley, [wherein are] vines, figs, pomegranates; a land of olive oil and honey;
9 Ilẹ̀ tí oúnjẹ kò ti wọ́n, kò sí ohun tí ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe aláìní, ilẹ̀ tí irin ti pọ̀ bí òkúta, ẹ̀yin sì lè wa idẹ jáde láti inú òkè rẹ̀ wá.
a land on which thou shalt not eat thy bread with poverty, and thou shalt not want any thing upon it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of its mountains thou shalt dig brass.
10 Nígbà tí ẹ bá ti jẹ tí ẹ sì yó tán ẹ yin Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fún pípèsè ilẹ̀ rere fún un yín.
And thou shalt eat and be filled, and shalt bless the Lord thy God on the good land, which he has given thee.
11 Ẹ ṣọ́ra kí ẹ má gbàgbé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, nípa kíkùnà láti pa àṣẹ rẹ̀, àwọn òfin rẹ̀, àti àwọn ìlànà rẹ̀ tí mo ń fún un yín lónìí mọ́.
Take heed to thyself that thou forget not the Lord thy God, so as not to keep his commands, and his judgments, and ordinances, which I command thee this day:
12 Kí ó má ba à jẹ́ pé, nígbà tí ẹ bá jẹun yó tán, tí ẹ bá kọ́ ilé tí ó dára tán, tí ẹ sí ń gbé inú rẹ̀,
lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt in them;
13 nígbà tí àwọn agbo màlúù yín àti tí ewúrẹ́ ẹ yín bá pọ̀ sí i tán, tí fàdákà àti wúrà yín sì ń peléke sí i, tí ohun gbogbo tí ẹ ní sì ń pọ̀ sí i,
and thy oxen and thy sheep are multiplied to thee, and thy silver and thy gold are multiplied to thee, and all thy possessions are multiplied to thee,
14 nígbà náà ni ọkàn yín yóò gbéga, tí ẹ̀yin yóò sì gbàgbé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, tí ó mú un yín jáde láti Ejibiti wá, nínú oko ẹrú.
thou shouldest be exalted in heart, and forget the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage:
15 Òun ni ó mú un yín la aginjù ẹlẹ́rù ńlá já, ilẹ̀ tí kò sí omi tí ó sì kún fún òǹgbẹ, pẹ̀lú àwọn ejò olóró ńlá ńlá àti àkéekèe. Ó mú omi jáde fún un yín láti inú àpáta.
who brought thee through that great and terrible wilderness, where [is] the biting serpent, and scorpion, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee a fountain of water out of the flinty rock:
16 Ó fún yín ní manna láti jẹ nínú aginjù, ohun tí àwọn baba yín kò mọ̀ rí, kí Òun bá à le tẹ orí yín ba kí ó sì lè dán an yín wò, kí ó bá à lè dára fún un yín.
who fed thee with manna in the wilderness, which thou knewest not, and thy fathers knew not; that he might afflict thee, and thoroughly try thee, and do thee good in thy latter days.
17 Ẹ lè rò nínú ara yín pé, “Agbára mi àti iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ mi ni ó mú ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí wá fún mi.”
Lest thou shouldest say in thine heart, My strength, and the power of mine hand have wrought for me this great wealth.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ rántí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín tí ó fún un yín ní agbára àti lè ní àwọn ọrọ̀ wọ̀nyí, tí ó sì fi mú májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ ṣẹ tí ó ti búra fún àwọn baba ńlá a yín bí ó ti rí lónìí.
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God, that he gives thee strength to get wealth; even that he may establish his covenant, which the Lord sware to thy fathers, as at this day.
19 Bí ẹ bá wá gbàgbé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, tí ẹ sì tẹ̀lé àwọn òrìṣà mìíràn, tí ẹ sì sìn wọ́n, tí ẹ sì foríbalẹ̀ fún wọn, Mo kìlọ̀ fún un yín pé rírun ni ẹ̀yin yóò run.
And it shall come to pass if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and shouldest go after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall surely perish.
20 Bí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa parun níwájú u yín, bákan náà ni ẹ ó parun, torí pé ẹ kò gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín lẹ́nu.
As also the other nations which the Lord God destroys before your face, so shall ye perish, because ye hearkened not to the voice of the Lord your God.
