¹These be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.

¹ Sanney kaŋ yaŋ Musa salaŋ Israyla* kulu se neeya: (Waato din i go ganjo ra Urdun* isa se ne-haray, Gooru Beero ra, Sufa jine. Paran da Tofel da Laban da Hazerot da Dizahab tondi kuukey go i windanta.

²(There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadeshbarnea.)

² Za Horeb ka Seyir tondo fonda gana ka to Kades-Barneya, a ga to jirbi way cindi fo diraw.

³And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them;

³ A ciya mo, jiiri waytaacanta handu way cindi fa, hando ra jirbi sintina, kala Musa salaŋ Israyla izey se, danga mate kulu kaŋ Rabbi n'a lordi* nd'a i se.

⁴After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

⁴ Waato kaŋ a na Amorancey bonkoono Sihon kaŋ goro Hesbon wi, nga nda Basan bonkoono Og kaŋ goro Astarot da Edrey ra, gaa no Musa na sanney wo ci.

⁵On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,

⁵ Israyla go Urdun isa se ne-haray Mowab laabo ra, waato kaŋ Musa sintin ka asariya* wo fe.) A ne:

⁶The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

⁶ «Rabbi iri Irikoyo salaŋ iri se Horeb tondo cire ka ne: Araŋ ne tondo cire gora wasa.

⁷Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

⁷ Wa bare k'araŋ dirawo sintin ka koy Amorancey tondi laabey ra, da nangey kulu kaŋ yaŋ ga maan i gaa mo. Wa koy Gooru Beero ra, da tondi kuukey ra, da Safela* ra, da Negeb* ra, da Teeku Beero me gaa, hal a ma koy to Kanaanancey laabo ra, ka koy ka to Liban gaa, ka koy hala isa beero do, kaŋ se i ga ne Ufratis.

⁸Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

⁸ Wa guna, ay na laabo daŋ araŋ jine. Wa furo k'a sambu. A ga ciya araŋ mayray hari, laabo din kaŋ Rabbi n'a zeyaŋ te araŋ kaayey se, kaŋ yaŋ ga ti Ibrahim da Isaka nda Yakuba. A ne nga g'a no i se d'i dumey se i banda.»

⁹And I spake unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone:

⁹ Ay wo, Musa, ay salaŋ araŋ se waato din ka ne: «Ay hinne si hin k'araŋ jare.

¹⁰The LORD your God hath multiplied you, and, behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.

¹⁰ Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo n'araŋ tonton hal a go, hunkuna araŋ ga hima danga beene handariyayzey baayaŋ.

¹¹(The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!)

¹¹ (Rabbi Irikoy, araŋ kaayey wano m'araŋ tonton mo koyne hal araŋ ma labu-care sorro zambar danga mate kaŋ araŋ go sohõ. A m'araŋ albarkandi mo, mate kaŋ cine a na alkawli sambu nd'a araŋ se.)

¹²How can I myself alone bear your cumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

¹² Ay ne: Mate n'ay ga te, ay hinne, ay m'araŋ tiŋa d'araŋ jarawo d'araŋ yanjey jare?

¹³Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

¹³ Wa laakalkooniyaŋ suuban kaŋ yaŋ gonda fahamay mo, kaŋ yaŋ i g'i bay araŋ kundey game ra. Ngey no ay ga daŋ i ma ciya araŋ se dabarikooniyaŋ.»

¹⁴And ye answered me, and said, The thing which thou hast spoken is good for us to do.

¹⁴ Kal araŋ tu ay se ka ne: «Haya kaŋ ni ci ga boori iri m'a te.»

¹⁵So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

¹⁵ Woodin boŋ no ay n'araŋ kundey jine borey sambu, laakalkooniyaŋ kaŋ i g'i bay. Ay n'i daŋ i ma ciya araŋ se dabarikooniyaŋ, sanda zambar jine boro, da zangu jine boro, da waygu jine boro, da iway-way wane yaŋ. I ma ciya wongu nyayaŋ araŋ kundey boŋ.

¹⁶And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger that is with him.

¹⁶ Alwaato din no ay n'araŋ ciitikoy lordi ka ne: «Wa hangan araŋ nya-izey da care game sanney se. Wa cimi ciiti te boro kulu nda nga nya-ize game ra, da ce-yaw mo kaŋ go a do.

¹⁷Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

¹⁷ Araŋ ma si baar'a-baar'a te ciiti ra, amma araŋ ma hangan boro kayna se danga mate kaŋ araŋ ga hangan boro beeri se. Wa si humburu boro fo moy, zama ciiti ya Irikoy wane no. Sanni kaŋ mongo araŋ se mo, kal araŋ ma kand'a ay do, ay mo ga hangan a se.»

¹⁸And I commanded you at that time all the things which ye should do.

¹⁸ Ay n'araŋ lordi mo waato din da hay kulu kaŋ araŋ ga hima ka te.

¹⁹And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadeshbarnea.

¹⁹ Iri mo, waato kaŋ iri tun Horeb, iri bisa saaji beero kaŋ ga humburandi din kulu ra, nga kaŋ araŋ di Amorancey tudey laabo fonda gaa, mate kaŋ Rabbi iri Irikoyo n'iri lordi nd'a. Iri kaa mo ka to Kades-Barneya.

²⁰And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us.

²⁰ Kal ay ne araŋ se: «Araŋ to Amorancey tudey laabo ra, nga kaŋ Rabbi iri Irikoyo ga ba k'iri no.

²¹Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.

²¹ A go, Rabbi ni Irikoyo na laabo daŋ ni jine. Ma ziji k'a sambu, mate kaŋ Rabbi ni kaayey Irikoyo ci ni se. Ma si humburu, ni bine-gaabo ma si bu mo.»

²²And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said, We will send men before us, and they shall search us out the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go up, and into what cities we shall come.

²² Amma araŋ boro fo kulu maan ay gaa ka ne: «Iri ga boroyaŋ donton iri jine, i ma laabo guna iri se. I ma kande iri se baaru: fonda kaŋ iri ga gana ka furo nd'a, da kwaarey mo kaŋ do iri ga koy.»

²³And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men of you, one of a tribe:

²³ Sanno din mo kaan ay se gumo. Ay n'araŋ boro way cindi hinka suuban, boro fo kunda kulu se.

²⁴And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came unto the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.

²⁴ I bare mo ka kaaru tudey laabo ra, ka kaa Eskol gooro ra, k'a guna.

²⁵And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which the LORD our God doth give us.

²⁵ I na laabo albarka sambu ngey kambey ra ka zumbu nd'a iri do. I kande iri se baaru ka ne: «Laabu hanno no kaŋ Rabbi iri Irikoyo ga ba k'iri no.»

²⁶Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God:

²⁶ Kulu nda yaadin, araŋ wangu ka ziji ka koy, amma araŋ murte Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo lordo gaa.

²⁷And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

²⁷ Araŋ guuni-guuni mo araŋ kuuru-fuwey ra ka ne: «Zama Rabbi konna iri, a se no a n'iri kaa Misira laabo ra, k'iri daŋ Amorancey kambe ra, zama i m'iri halaci.

²⁸Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.

²⁸ Man no iri ga ziji ka koy? Iri nya-izey n'iri bine-gaabo wi ka ne: ‹Borey din bisa iri wargayaŋ da kuuyaŋ mo. I kwaarey mo, ibambata yaŋ no kaŋ yaŋ birni cinari ga to hala beene. Iri di Anak izeyaŋ zaati noodin.› »

²⁹Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of them.

²⁹ Kal ay ne araŋ se: «Wa si joote, wa si humbur'ey mo.

³⁰The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;

³⁰ Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo kaŋ ga furo araŋ jine, nga no ga wongu araŋ se. A ga goy araŋ se hay kulu boŋ kaŋ a te araŋ se araŋ jine Misira laabo ra.

³¹And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

³¹ Ganjo ra mo, ni di mate kaŋ Rabbi ni Irikoyo n'araŋ jare, mate kaŋ boro ga te nga ize aru se. A konda araŋ fonda kaŋ araŋ gana kulu ra, hal araŋ kaa ka to nango wo.»

³²Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,

³² Amma sanno din ra, araŋ mana Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo cimandi.

³³Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.

³³ Nga no ka furo araŋ jine fonda ra ka nangu ceeci araŋ se kaŋ araŋ ga zumbu ka sinji. A go danji ra cin haray, zama a m'araŋ cabe fonda kaŋ araŋ ga hima ka gana, a go buro ra zaari haray mo.

³⁴And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,

³⁴ Rabbi maa araŋ sanney jinde, a te bine mo ka ze ka ne:

³⁵Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers.

³⁵ «Zamana laalo wo borey ra, baa afolloŋ si no kaŋ ga di laabu hanna din, wo kaŋ ay ze ka ne ay g'a no araŋ kaayey se.

³⁶Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD.

³⁶ Kala day Kaleb Yefunna izo hinne, nga wo ga di a. Laabo kaŋ a taamu din, a se no ay g'a no, nga nda nga izey, zama a na Rabbi gana nda bine folloŋ.»

³⁷Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.

³⁷ Koyne, Rabbi futu ay se araŋ sabbay se, ka ne: «Ni bumbo mo, ni si furo laabo din ra,

³⁸But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.

³⁸ amma ni zanka Yasuwa, Nun izo, nga wo ga furo a ra. Kala ni m'a bina gaabandi, zama a do no Israyla ga laabo tubu.

³⁹Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

³⁹ Araŋ zankey, d'araŋ izey mo, kaŋ yaŋ araŋ ne i ga ciya wongu kuyaŋ hari, kaŋ yaŋ hunkuna i sinda fayanka, ihanno wala ilaalo boŋ, ngey wo ga furo a ra. I se mo no ay g'a no, a ma ciya i mayray hari.

⁴⁰But as for you, turn you, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.

⁴⁰ Amma araŋ wo, kal araŋ ma bare k'araŋ dirawo sintin ka koy ganjo ra Teeku Cira fonda boŋ.»

⁴¹Then ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against the LORD, we will go up and fight, according to all that the LORD our God commanded us. And when ye had girded on every man his weapons of war, ye were ready to go up into the hill.

⁴¹ Waato din gaa no araŋ tu ay se ka ne: «Iri na zunubi te Rabbi se. Iri ga ziji ka koy ka wongu, sanda mate kaŋ Rabbi iri Irikoyo n'iri lordi nd'a.» Kal araŋ boro fo kulu na nga wongu jinay koto ka ne a manti hay fo no araŋ ma ziji hala tudey laabo ra.

⁴²And the LORD said unto me, Say unto them. Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.

⁴² Amma Rabbi ne ay se: «Ma ci i se ka ne: Wa si ziji. Wa si koy ka wongu mo, zama ay si araŋ game ra, zama araŋ ibarey ma si araŋ kar ka zeeri.»

⁴³So I spake unto you; and ye would not hear, but rebelled against the commandment of the LORD, and went presumptuously up into the hill.

⁴³ Ay binde salaŋ araŋ se, amma araŋ wangu ka maa. Araŋ murte mo Rabbi lordo gaa. Araŋ koy da farrati ka ziji hala tudey laabo ra.

⁴⁴And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, even unto Hormah.

⁴⁴ Amorancey mo kaŋ yaŋ go noodin tudey laabo ra da goray fatta araŋ gaa k'araŋ gaaray danga yu hamni yaŋ cine. I n'araŋ kar ka zeeri mo za Seyir tondo gaa ka koy to hala Horma.

⁴⁵And ye returned and wept before the LORD; but the LORD would not hearken to your voice, nor give ear unto you.

⁴⁵ Waato gaa no araŋ ye ka kaa ka hẽ Rabbi jine. Amma Rabbi mana hangan araŋ jindey se, a mana araŋ saal mo.

⁴⁶So ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode there.

⁴⁶ Kal araŋ goro noodin Kades jirbi boobo, jirbey kaŋ araŋ gay noodin lasaabo boŋ.
