Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 11
1 Yagalanga Mukama Katonda wo, ogonderenga ebigambo bye by’akukuutira, n’ebiragiro bye, n’amateeka ge ennaku zonna.
Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.
2 Mutegeere nga ku lunaku lwa leero soogera na baana bammwe abataamanya era abataalaba ku kukangavvula kwa Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’ekitiibwa kye n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi, era ogw’obukuumi;
And know ye this day: for [I speak] not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
3 era abataalaba ku byamagero bye yakola n’ebintu byonna bye yakolera wakati mu Misiri, ku Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri n’eri ensi ye yonna;
and his signs, and his works, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;
4 ne bye yakola eggye lya Misiri n’embalaasi zaalyo n’amagaali gaalyo; era nga amaggye ago bwe yagazikiririza mu mazzi ag’omu Nnyanja Emyufu bwe gaali nga gabagoberera, n’agamalirawo ddala n’okutuusa leero.
and what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red Sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;
5 Abaana bammwe si be baalaba ebyo byonna Mukama bye yabakolera okuva nga muli mu ddungu n’okutuuka wano mu kifo kino,
and what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came unto this place;
6 era ne kye yakola Dasani ne Abiraamu batabani ba Eriyaabu, mutabani wa Lewubeeni, ettaka bwe lyayasamya akamwa kaalyo, wakati mu baana ba Isirayiri bonna, ne libamira n’ab’omu maka gaabwe bonna, n’eweema ez’ensiisira zaabwe zonna, ne buli kiramu kyabwe kyonna kye baalinako obwannannyini.
and what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben; how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the midst of all Israel:
7 Naye mmwe bennyini mwe mwabiraba n’amaaso gammwe, ebintu ebyo ebikulu Mukama by’azze akola.
but your eyes have seen all the great work of the LORD which he did.
8 Noolwekyo mukwatenga amateeka gonna ge mbalagira leero, mulyoke mubeere n’amaanyi okuyingira mu nsi gye mujja okwefunira, nga mumaze okusomoka omugga Yoludaani,
Therefore shall ye keep all the commandment which I command thee this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go over to possess it;
9 bwe mutyo mulyoke muwangaalenga nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjammwe okugibawa awamu ne bazzukulu baabwe, ng’eyo ye nsi omukulukutira amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.
and that ye may prolong your days upon the land, which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.
10 Kubanga ensi gy’ogenda okuyingira, ogyefunire, tefaanaana ng’ensi y’e Misiri, gye mwava, gye wasimbanga ensigo zo n’ozifukiriranga n’ebbomba gye wasambyanga ekigere, ng’afukirira ennimiro y’enva.
For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:
11 Naye ensi gye mugenda okwefunira nga musomose omugga Yoludaani, ye nsi ey’ensozi n’ebiwonvu, enywa amazzi g’enkuba agava mu ggulu.
but the land, whither ye go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, [and] drinketh water of the rain of heaven:
12 Ye nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’alabirira. Amaaso ga Mukama Katonda wo gabeera ku nsi eyo bulijjo, okuva ku ntandikwa y’omwaka okutuuka ku nkomerero yaagwo.
a land which the LORD thy God careth for; the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.
13 Bwe munaagonderanga amateeka gano ge mbalagira leero: okwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okumuweerezanga n’omutima gwammwe gwonna, n’emmeeme yammwe yonna,
And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 kale, anaatonnyesanga enkuba mu nsi yammwe mu biseera byayo: enkuba eya ddumbi n’eya ttoggo, olyoke okungulenga emmere yo ey’empeke, weefunire ne wayini omusu n’amafuta.
that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.
15 Era anaakuzanga omuddo mu malundiro go ente zo gwe zinaalyanga; naawe onoolyanga emmere n’okkuta.
And I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, and thou shalt eat and be full.
16 Mwegenderezenga nnyo, mulemenga okukyama ne mubula, ne muweerezanga bakatonda abalala era ne mubavuunamiranga.
Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
17 Kale obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirangako, n’aggalangawo eggulu, enkuba ne tetonnyanga, n’ettaka ne litabalangako bibala, ne muzikiriranga ne muggwaawo mangu ku nsi ennungi Mukama gy’abawa.
and the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.
18 Kale muterekenga ebigambo byange bino mu mutima gwammwe ne mu mmeeme yammwe; munaabisibanga ku mikono gyammwe ng’akabonero ak’okubibajjukizanga, era mubitekanga ne ku byenyi byammwe.
Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and ye shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
19 Mubiyigirizenga abaana bammwe, ng’obinyumyako bw’onoobanga otudde mu nnyumba yo, ne bw’onoobanga otambula mu nguudo; ne bw’onoogalamirangako, era ne bw’onoositukanga.
And ye shall teach them your children, talking of them, when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
20 Era onoobiwandiikanga ku myango ne ku nzigi,
And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
21 mmwe n’abaana bammwe mulyoke muwangaalenga nnyo, mumale ennaku nnyingi nga ebbanga eggulu lye lirimala nga liri waggulu w’ensi, nga muli mu nsi Mukama gye yasuubiza bajjajjammwe okugibawa.
that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, upon the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
22 Bwe muneegenderezanga, ne mugonderanga ebiragiro bino byonna bye mbawa okubikolanga: kwe kwagalanga Mukama Katonda wammwe, n’okutambuliranga mu makubo ge gonna, n’okumunywererangako;
For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it; to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
23 kale, Mukama anaagobangamu amawanga ago gonna aganaabanga mu maaso gammwe, ne mwefunira ensi z’amawanga ago agabasinga mmwe obunene era n’amaanyi.
then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
24 Buli we munaalinnyanga ekigere kyammwe, ekifo ekyo kinaabeeranga kyammwe; okuva ku ddungu okutuuka ku Lebanooni, n’okuva ku Mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nnyanja ey’ebugwanjuba.
Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the hinder sea shall be your border.
25 Tewaabengawo muntu n’omu anaasobolanga okubaziyiza. Mukama Katonda wammwe aliteeka entiisa n’ekikangabwa mu bannansi bonna, buli we munaagendanga, nga bwe yabasuubiza.
There shall no man be able to stand before you: the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath spoken unto you.
26 Mulabe, ku lunaku lwa leero nteeka mu maaso gammwe omukisa n’ekikolimo.
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
27 Omukisa, bwe munaagonderanga amateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe ge mbalagira leero;
the blessing, if ye shall hearken unto the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
28 ekikolimo, bwe mutaagonderenga mateeka ga Mukama Katonda wammwe, ne mukyamanga okuva mu kkubo lye mbalagira leero, ne mugobereranga bakatonda abalala be mwali mutamanyi.
and the curse, if ye shall not hearken unto the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
29 Mukama Katonda wo bw’alikutuusa mu nsi gy’ogenda okuyingiramu ogyetwalire ng’obutaka bwo obw’enkalakkalira, omukisa oguteekanga ku lusozi Gerizimu, n’ekikolimo ku lusozi Ebali.
And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt set the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
30 Ensozi ezo ziri mitala wa Yoludaani ku ludda olw’ebugwanjuba obw’oluguudo ng’oyolekedde enjuba gy’egwa, okumpi n’emiti eminene egy’e Mole, mu nsi y’Abakanani ababeera mu Alaba ku miriraano gya Girugaali.
Are they not beyond Jordan, behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites which dwell in the Arabah, over against Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
31 Muli kumpi okusomoka omugga Yoludaani mwefunire ensi Mukama Katonda wammwe gy’abawa. Bwe mulimala okugyetwalira, nga mwe mubeera,
For ye are to pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.
32 mwegenderezenga nnyo mugonderenga amateeka gonna, n’ebiragiro bye nteeka mu maaso gammwe leero.
And ye shall observe to do all the statutes and the judgments which I set before you this day.
