< Deuteronomy 9 >

1 Hear, Israel! You are to pass over the Jordan today, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourself, cities great and fortified up to the sky,
Mijanjiña ry Israele! Fa hitsake Iardeney rehe te anito himoaha’o, ho tavane’o ty rofoko bey naho mao­za­tse te ama’o, rova jabajaba, aman-kijoly miningo­ningo mb’ andikerañe ey;
2 a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom you know, and of whom you have heard say, “Who can stand before the sons of Anak?”
ondaty fatratse naho mijoalajoala o anan-te-Anakeo, toe fohi’o, vaho jinanji’o ty ama’e ty hoe, Ia ty maha­fijohañe aolo’ o nte-Anakeo?
3 Know therefore today that the LORD your God is he who goes over before you as a devouring fire. He will destroy them and he will bring them down before you. So you shall drive them out and make them perish quickly, as the LORD has spoken to you.
Aa le mahafohina anito te hiaolo azo hitsake mb’eo manahake ty afo mamorototo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; ho rotsahe’e iereo vaho hampiambanè’e aolo’o eo, handroaha’o naho ho zamane’o aniany, amy nitsarae’ Iehovà ama’oy.
4 Don’t say in your heart, after the LORD your God has thrust them out from before you, “For my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land;” because the LORD drives them out before you because of the wickedness of these nations.
Ie hasiotsio’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o aolo’o eo, le ko manao añ’ aro­fo’o ao ty hoe, Ty havantañako ty nanesea’ Iehovà ahy himoneñako an-tane atoy, te mone ty halò-tsere’ o fifeheañeo ty nandroaha’ Iehovà iareo aolo’o mb’eo.
5 Not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart do you go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may establish the word which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Tsy ty havañona’o ndra ty havantañan’ arofo’o ty hionjona’o hitavañe ty tane’ iareo, te mone ty haratia’ o fifelehañe retiañe ty aniora’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare’o iareo aolo’o eo hañenefa’ Iehovà i nitsara’e am-panta aman-droae’oy, amy Avra­hame, Ietsàke vaho Iakobe.
6 Know therefore that the LORD your God doesn’t give you this good land to possess for your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked people.
Maha­fohina te tsy ty hamaren­tane’o ty anolora’ Iehovà Andria­na­ñahare’o ama’o ty tane fiaintane toy hitavana’o, ihe foko gan-katoke.
7 Remember, and don’t forget, how you provoked the LORD your God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that you left the land of Egypt until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against the LORD.
Tiahio, le ko haliño ty nampi­viñera’o Iehovà Andrianañahare’o am-patrambey añe; toe niola am’ Iehovà nahareo mifototse amy an­dro niavota’o an-tane Mitsraimey am-para’ te nipok’atoy.
8 Also in Horeb you provoked the LORD to wrath, and the LORD was angry with you to destroy you.
Mbore nampiviñere’ areo e Korebe añe t’Iehovà, le akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà ama’ areo kanao ho zinama’e.
9 When I had gone up onto the mountain to receive the stone tablets, even the tablets of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water.
Zaho niañambone’ i vohitsey handrambe i ravem-bato rey, i ravem-batom-pañina nanoe’ Iehovà ho anahareoy, ie nitambatse am-bohitse ey efa-polo andro naho efa-polo haleñe, tsy nihinan-kane tsy ninon-drano.
10 The LORD delivered to me the two stone tablets written with God’s finger. On them were all the words which the LORD spoke with you on the mountain out of the middle of the fire in the day of the assembly.
Le natolo’ Iehovà ahy i ravem-bato roe sinokin-drambom-pitàn’ Añahare rey; ama’e eo ze hene tsara nitsarae’ Iehovà ama’ areo boak’ añ’ afo ao amy vohitsey añ’ andro’ i valobohòkey.
11 It came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights that the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, even the tablets of the covenant.
Ie nimodo i efapolo andro naho efa-polo haleñe rey le natolo’ Iehovà ahiko i ravem-bato roe rey, i ravem-pañina rey.
12 The LORD said to me, “Arise, get down quickly from here; for your people whom you have brought out of Egypt have corrupted themselves. They have quickly turned away from the way which I commanded them. They have made a molten image for themselves!”
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Miongaha, naho mizotsoa mb’eo masìka amy te nameta vatañe ondaty nente’o boake Mitsraimeo, nitsile aniany amy lalañe liniliko am’iareo horiheñey, nampitranake saren-draha.
13 Furthermore the LORD spoke to me, saying, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.
Mbore nitsara amako t’Iehovà, ami’ty hoe, Fa nitreako ondaty retiañe, toe gan-katoke ondatio.
14 Leave me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under the sky; and I will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they.”
Apoho habaibaiko iareo le ho fòrako ambanen-dikerañe ao ty tahina’ iareo vaho hanoeko foko maozatse rehe, ho jabajaba te am’ iereo.
15 So I turned and came down from the mountain, and the mountain was burning with fire. The two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands.
Aa le nitolike raho nizotso amy vohitsey ie nisolebotse iaby i vohitsey; an-tañako roe i ravem-pañina roe rey.
16 I looked, and behold, you had sinned against the LORD your God. You had made yourselves a moulded calf. You had quickly turned away from the way which the LORD had commanded you.
Le nitreako t’ie vata’e nanao hakeo am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo amy nampitranaha’ areo sare baniay; nalisa nandifik’ amy lalañe nandi­lia’ Iehovày.
17 I took hold of the two tablets, and threw them out of my two hands, and broke them before your eyes.
Ni­von­titireko amy zao i rave’e roe rey le naretsako boak’ an-tañako roe vaho nivolen­tsañe añatrefam-pihaino’ areo.
18 I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin which you sinned, in doing that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
Nibabok’ añatrefa’ Iehovà amy zao raho, manahake i teoy, efapolo andro naho efa-polo haleñe, tsy nihinan-kane tsy ninon-drano ty amo hakeo nanoe’ areo iabio naho nanao haratiañe añatrefa’ Iehovà hampiviñetse aze.
19 For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which the LORD was angry against you to destroy you. But the LORD listened to me that time also.
Fa nihemban-draho ami’ty filoro­lo­ron-kaviñera’ Iehovà ama’ areo hera harotsa’e, fe nañaoñ’ ahy henane zay ka t’Iehovà.
20 The LORD was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him. I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.
Akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà amy Aharone kanao ho nañohofa’e loza, fe nihalaliako ka henane zay.
21 I took your sin, the calf which you had made, and burnt it with fire, and crushed it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust. I threw its dust into the brook that descended out of the mountain.
Rinambeko amy zao ty tahi’ areo, i bania maleotse natrana’ areoy, le finoro­totoko añ’afo ao naho dinemo­demoko naho linisako ho bo’e, eka ndra pili­pito’e ampara’ te ni-deboke vaho nahifiko amy torahañe mikararake boak’ am-bohitsey i lembo’ey.
22 At Taberah, at Massah, and at Kibroth Hattaavah you provoked the LORD to wrath.
Mbore nampiviñere’ areo t’Iehovà e Taberà naho e Masà, naho e Kibrote-hatavà añe.
23 When the LORD sent you from Kadesh Barnea, saying, “Go up and possess the land which I have given you,” you rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and you didn’t believe him or listen to his voice.
Le ie nirahe’ Iehovà mb’e Kadese-barnea mb’eo ami’ty hoe, Mionjona, tavano i tane natoloko anahareoy, le niola amy nandilia’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areoy, tsy niantoke vaho tsy nijanjiñe i fiarañanaña’ey.
24 You have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I knew you.
Toe fa zineha’ areo t’Iehovà amo hene andro nahafohinako anahareoo.
25 So I fell down before the LORD the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because the LORD had said he would destroy you.
Aa le handro am-pohatse ty nibabohako añatrefa’ Iehovà, efa-polo andro naho efa-polo haleñe ty nibabohako ty amy tsinara’ Iehovày t’ie hanjamañe anahareo,
26 I prayed to the LORD, and said, “Lord GOD, don’t destroy your people and your inheritance that you have redeemed through your greatness, that you have brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
aa le nihalaly am’ Iehovà raho nanao ty hoe, Ry Talè Iehovà, ko ampikoromahe’o ondati’oo—o lova’oo, o nijebañe’o ami’ty hajabahina’o, ie nampiengà’o i Mitsraime am-pitàñe maozatseo.
27 Remember your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Don’t look at the stubbornness of this people, nor at their wickedness, nor at their sin,
Tiahio i mpitoro’o rey, i Avrahame, Ietsàke, naho Iakobe, le ko haoñe’o ty fanjehara’ ondatio, ty halò-tsere’ iareo naho o hakeo’ iareoo,
28 lest the land you brought us out from say, ‘Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.’
tsy mone hanao ty hoe i tane’ nampiengà’o anaiy: Kanao tsy nahafanese iareo mb’an-tane nampitamae’e añe t’Iehovà, mbore ami’ty fihejea’e, le nasese’e am-patrambey ao hikoromake;
29 Yet they are your people and your inheritance, which you brought out by your great power and by your outstretched arm.”
f’ie ondati’o naho lova’o, o nampiengà’o an-kaozara’o ra’elahy vaho am-pità’o natora-kitsio.
