Deuteronomy 30

1 It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations where Yahweh your God has driven you,

Sɛ nhyira ne nnome a mede ato mo anim no nyinaa ba mo so, na mode hyɛ mo koma mu wɔ baabiara a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɛfa mo akɔ, wɔ aman no mu,

2 and return to Yahweh your God and obey his voice according to all that I command you today, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul,

na mo ne mo mma san ba Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, nkyɛn, na mode mo koma ne mo kra nyinaa yɛ osetie ma no sɛnea merekyerɛ mo nnɛ yi a,

3 that then Yahweh your God will release you from captivity, have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples where Yahweh your God has scattered you.

ɛno de, Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, de mo siade bɛma mo, na wahu mo mmɔbɔ, na waboaboa mo ano bio afi amanaman a ɔbɔɔ mo hwete kɔɔ so no nyinaa so, asan de mo aba.

4 If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from there Yahweh your God will gather you, and from there he will bring you back.

Sɛ mpo, wɔapam mo kɔ akyirikyiri asase bi a ɛwɔ ɔsoro ase a, efi hɔ no, Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɛboaboa mo ano asan de mo aba.

5 Yahweh your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you will possess it. He will do you good, and increase your numbers more than your fathers.

Ɔde mo bɛba asase a ɛyɛ mo agyanom de no so na moafa sɛ agyapade. Ɔbɛma mo adi yiye na moadɔɔso asen mo agyanom.

6 Yahweh your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your offspring, to love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live.

Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, beyi fi a ɛwɔ mo ne mo asefo koma mu no sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mode mo koma ne mo kra nyinaa bɛdɔ no na moanya nkwa.

7 Yahweh your God will put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.

Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, de saa nnome yi nyinaa begu mo atamfo a wɔtaa mo no so.

8 You shall return and obey Yahweh’s voice, and do all his commandments which I command you today.

Mobɛsan atie, adi Awurade ahyɛde a mede rema mo nnɛ no nyinaa so.

9 Yahweh your God will make you prosperous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, for good; for Yahweh will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers,

Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, bɛma biribiara a moyɛ no asi mo yiye. Ɔbɛma mo yafunu mu aba asi yiye pii. Mo nyɛmmoa bɛdɔɔso. Na mo mfuw mu nnɔbae nso bebu so, efisɛ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, ani begye sɛ ɔbɛma mo adi yiye sɛnea na ɔyɛ mo agyanom no.

10 if you will obey Yahweh your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, if you turn to Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

Sɛ mutie Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, nne, na mudi nʼahyɛde ne ne mmara a wɔakyerɛw wɔ saa Mmara Nhoma no mu no so, na mode mo koma ne mo kra dɔ no a, nʼani begye mo yiyedi ho.

11 For this commandment which I command you today is not too hard for you or too distant.

Nokware, saa mmara a merehyɛ ama mo nnɛ yi sodi nyɛ den na ɛnyɛ ade a morentumi nyɛ nso.

12 It is not in heaven, that you should say, “Who will go up for us to heaven, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”

Enni ɔsoro a enti mobɛka se, “Hena na ɔbɛkɔ ɔsoro ama yɛn na wakogye abrɛ yɛn, na yɛate adi so?”

13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, “Who will go over the sea for us, bring it to us, and proclaim it to us, that we may do it?”

Saa ara nso na enni po agya a enti mobɛka se, “Hena na obetwa akɔ ɛpo fa nohɔ ama yɛn na wakogye abrɛ yɛn, na yɛate adi so?”

14 But the word is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.

Dabi, asɛm no abɛn wo. Ɛda wʼano na ɛwɔ wo koma mu sɛ mudi so.

15 Behold, I have set before you today life and prosperity, and death and evil.

Muntie, nnɛ, mede nkwa ne yiyedi, owu ne ɔsɛe asi mo anim.

16 For I command you today to love Yahweh your God, to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances, that you may live and multiply, and that Yahweh your God may bless you in the land where you go in to possess it.

Na Sɛ mutie Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, mmara a merehyɛ ama mo nnɛ yi, nam so dɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, nantew nʼakwan mu, di ne mmara so a, mubenya nkwa na mo ase adɔ, na Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn behyira mo wɔ asase a morekɔ akɔtena so no so.

17 But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away and worship other gods, and serve them,

Nanso sɛ mo koma dan, sɛ moanyɛ osetie, na sɛ wɔtwe mo kɔkotow anyame afoforo, na mosom wɔn a,

18 I declare to you today that you will surely perish. You will not prolong your days in the land where you pass over the Jordan to go in to possess it.

mepae mu ka kyerɛ mo nnɛ sɛ, nea ɛte biara no wɔbɛsɛe mo; morentena asase a moretwa Yordan akɔ so akɔfa sɛ agyapade no so nkyɛ.

19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants,

Nnɛ mede nkwa ne owu, nhyira ne nnome, asi mo anim sɛ munyi nea mopɛ. Mefrɛ ɔsoro ne asase sɛ nnansefo. Momfa nkwa sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mo ne mo asefo benya nkwa!

20 to love Yahweh your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days, that you may dwell in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

Monnɔ Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn no, monyɛ osetie mma no, na momfa mo ho mma no, efisɛ ɔno ne mo nkwa. Ɛno na mobɛtena ase akyɛ wɔ asase a Awurade kaa ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma mo tete agyanom; Abraham, Isak ne Yakob no.
