¹Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.

¹ Sohõ binde, ya Israyla, wa hangan ka maa hin sanney da ciiti sanney kaŋ ay go g'araŋ dondonandi. Araŋ m'i te mo hal araŋ ma funa, araŋ ma du ka furo mo ka du laabo kaŋ Rabbi araŋ kaayey Irikoyo g'araŋ no.

²Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

² Araŋ ma si tonton sanno kaŋ ay goono g'araŋ lordi nd'a din gaa, araŋ ma si zabu a gaa mo. Amma araŋ ma Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo lordey gana, wo kaŋ yaŋ ay dake araŋ boŋ.

³Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baalpeor: for all the men that followed Baalpeor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from among you.

³ Araŋ moy di haŋ kaŋ Rabbi te Baal-Peyor sabbay se, zama alborey kulu kaŋ yaŋ na Baal-Peyor teera gana, Rabbi ni Irikoyo n'i halaci k'i kaa ni game ra.

⁴But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.

⁴ Amma araŋ kaŋ na Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo di da gaabi, araŋ kulu go ga funa hala ka kaa hunkuna.

⁵Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.

⁵ Guna, ay n'araŋ dondonandi hin sanney da farilley mate kaŋ cine Rabbi ay Irikoyo n'ay lordi nd'a, hal araŋ ma te yaadin laabo kaŋ araŋ ga furo ka du a mayray din ra.

⁶Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

⁶ W'i haggoy fa, k'i goyey te mo, zama woodin ga ciya araŋ se laakal da fahamay dumi cindey jine. Ngey wo, i ga maa hin sanney din kulu baaru ka ne: «Haciika, dumo wo kaŋ ga beeri, a borey gonda laakal da fahamay.»

⁷For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?

⁷ Zama dumi beeri woofo no ka bara i cine kaŋ gonda Irikoy kaŋ ga maan i gaa mate kaŋ cine Rabbi iri Irikoyo go no saaya kulu kaŋ iri g'a ce?

⁸And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

⁸ Wala dumi beeri woofo no ka bara kaŋ gonda hin sanni da farilla yaŋ kaŋ gonda adilitaray sanda asariya wo kulu cine, kaŋ ay go ga daŋ araŋ jine hunkuna?

⁹Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons;

⁹ Kala day ni ma haggoy da ni boŋ. Ma haggoy mo da ni bina da himma, hala ni ma si dinya hayey wo kulu kaŋ ni moy jin ka di. I ma si fatta ni bine ra mo kala ni fundo ma to nga me. Amma ni ma ni izey da ni haamey bayrandi nd'ey.

¹⁰Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.

¹⁰ Ma fongu hano kaŋ hane ni kay Rabbi ni Irikoyo jine Horeb tondo cire, waato kaŋ Rabbi ci ay se ka ne: «Ma jama kulu margu ay jine. Ay mo ga naŋ i ma maa ay sanney, hal i ma dondon ka humburu ay, jirbey kulu kaŋ i ga funa laabo ra. I ma ngey izey mo dondonandi nd'ey.»

¹¹And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.

¹¹ Han din mo araŋ kaa ka kay tondo cire, tondo go ga di nda danji ka to hala beene kuuro gaa mo. Kubay mo go no, da buru yuumay da kubay bi tik!

¹²And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.

¹² Kala Rabbi salaŋ araŋ se, jinda fun danjo bindo ra. Araŋ maa a sanney jinda, amma araŋ mana di alhaali kulu, kala day araŋ maa jinde fo.

¹³And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

¹³ A na nga sappa mo fe araŋ hangey ra, wo kaŋ a n'araŋ lordi ka ne araŋ ma te, sanda lordi waya din nooya. A n'i hantum mo tondi walhã hinka gaa.

¹⁴And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.

¹⁴ Koyne, woodin banda, Rabbi ye k'ay lordi ka ne ay ma hin sanni da ciiti sanni yaŋ dondonandi araŋ se, zama araŋ ma i goy te laabo kaŋ araŋ ga daŋandi ka koy ka du a mayra din ra.

¹⁵Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:

¹⁵ Woodin sabbay se no araŋ ma haggoy d'araŋ boŋ gumo, zama araŋ mana di alhaali dumi kulu han din hane kaŋ Rabbi salaŋ araŋ se Horeb tondo ra, jinda fun danjo bindo ra.

¹⁶Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

¹⁶ Araŋ ma si goy ziibiyaŋ te hal araŋ ma koy ka tooru jabante te araŋ boŋ se. Araŋ ma si alhaali wala himandi fo kulu te, kaŋ ga hima alboro wala wayboro,

¹⁷The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,

¹⁷ wala alman fo kaŋ go ndunnya ra himandi, wala curo fatakoy fo kaŋ ga deesi beene himandi,

¹⁸The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:

¹⁸ wala wo kaŋ ga noru ganda laabo ra himandi, wala hari ham fo kaŋ go haro ra laabo cire himandi.

¹⁹And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

¹⁹ A ma si te ka ciya mo ni ma ni moy basu beene. Da ni di wayna da hando da handariyayzey, sanda beena ra marga kulu, i ma ni candi ni ma koy ka sududu i se ka may i se. Zama Rabbi ni Irikoyo na beena ra marga waadu dumey kaŋ yaŋ go beena cire kulu se.

²⁰But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.

²⁰ Amma Rabbi n'araŋ suuban, a n'araŋ kaa taray araŋ ma fun guuru-bi dudal ra, kaŋ ga ti Misira laabo. A n'araŋ suuban araŋ ma ciya nga bumbo jama d'a wane mayray hari, mate kaŋ a go d'a hunkuna.

²¹Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and sware that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance:

²¹ Woodin baa si mo, Rabbi dukur ay se araŋ sabbay se. A ze ka ne ay si du ka Urdun daŋandi. Ay si furo laabu hanna din ra, nga kaŋ Rabbi ni Irikoyo ga ni no ni m'a tubu.

²²But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.

²² Amma a ga tilas ay ma bu ne laabo wo ra, ay ma si Urdun daŋandi. Amma araŋ wo, araŋ g'a daŋandi ka du laabu hanna din, araŋ mayray hari no.

²³Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.

²³ Wa haggoy d'araŋ boŋ fa, hal araŋ ma si dinya Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo sappa kaŋ a te nga nda araŋ game ra. Araŋ ma si koy ka himandi jabante fo te araŋ boŋ se kaŋ gonda hay kulu alhaali kaŋ Rabbi ni Irikoyo n'araŋ ganji.

²⁴For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

²⁴ Zama Rabbi ni Irikoyo ya danji kaŋ ga ŋwa no. Irikoy ya cansekom mo no.

²⁵When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger:

²⁵ Da ni hay izeyaŋ, hala ni du haamayaŋ, hala mo araŋ gay gumo laabo ra, da waato din araŋ ga koy k'araŋ boŋ sara, ka himandi jabante te kaŋ gonda hay kulu alhaali, ka hay kulu te mo kaŋ ga laala Rabbi ni Irikoyo jine, k'a dukurandi mo,

²⁶I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.

²⁶ ay ga ze da beene nda ganda mo hunkuna, i ma te seeda araŋ boŋ. D'araŋ na woodin te, araŋ ga tara ka halaci parkatak. Araŋ ga ban laabo kaŋ araŋ ga Urdun daŋandi ka du din ra. Araŋ si te aloomar kuuku a ra, amma i g'araŋ halaci, parkatak!

²⁷And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.

²⁷ Rabbi g'araŋ say-say mo ndunnya dumey game ra. Araŋ ga cindi boro ciraariyaŋ dumi cindey game ra, naŋ kaŋ Rabbi g'araŋ candi ka konda araŋ.

²⁸And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

²⁸ Nangey din mo araŋ ga may tooruyaŋ se, Adam-izey kambe goy wane yaŋ, kaŋ i n'i te da bundu da tondi mo. I si di, i si hangan ka maa, i si ŋwa, i si mani ka maa mo.

²⁹But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

²⁹ Amma hala day noodin araŋ ga Rabbi ni Irikoyo ceeci, ni ga ye ka du a koyne, waati kaŋ ni n'a ceeci da ni bina kulu da ni anniya kulu mo.

³⁰When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;

³⁰ Waati kaŋ ni go taabi ra, kaŋ hayey din kulu kaa ni gaa, kokor banda ni ga ye ka kaa Rabbi ni Irikoyo do ka maa a sanno se.

³¹(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.

³¹ Zama Rabbi ni Irikoyo ya suujikoy no. A si ni furu, a si ni halaci, a si dinya mo alkawlo kaŋ a sambu ka ze ni kaayey se.

³²For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?

³² Kala ni ma koy sohõ ka za doŋ-doŋ jirbey kaŋ yaŋ na ni jin sanney din hã. Wa guna za hano kaŋ hane Irikoy na boro taka ndunnya ra, za beena me fa gaa ka koy hal a me fa gaa. Wa hã hala hari bambata wo dumi jin ka te ce fo, wala baa i maa a cine baaru?

³³Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?

³³ A jin ka te ce fo no, kaŋ dumi fo ga maa Irikoy jinde kaŋ salaŋ a se ka fun danji ra, mate kaŋ cine ni wo ni maa r'a, ni go ga funa hala hõ mo?

³⁴Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

³⁴ Wala a bay ka te Irikoy ma fatta ka koy ka dumi fo sambu nga boŋ se dumi waani fo game ra? A m'i kaa i game ra da siyaŋ, da alaamayaŋ, da dabari goyyaŋ, da wongu, da kambe gaabikooni, da kambe sallante, da humburkumay hari bambata yaŋ no? Hayey din kulu mo Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo n'i te araŋ se Misira laabo ra, araŋ jine.

³⁵Unto thee it was showed, that thou mightest know that the LORD he is God; there is none else beside him.

³⁵ Ni se mo no i na woodin kulu cabe zama ni ma bay kaŋ Rabbi ya Irikoy no. Afo si no mo kala nga.

³⁶Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee: and upon earth he showed thee his great fire; and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.

³⁶ A naŋ ni ma maa nga jinda kaŋ fun beene, zama a ma ni dondonandi. Ndunnya boŋ mo a naŋ ni ma di nga danji beero. Ni maa a jinda mo kaŋ fun danjo bindo ra.

³⁷And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt;

³⁷ Zama a ga ba ni kaayey mo, woodin se no a n'i banda-ka-zumbey suuban. Nga bumbo no ka ni kaa taray da nga gaabi bambata ni ma fun Misira ra.

³⁸To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.

³⁸ A na dumiyaŋ gaaray ni jine mo, borey kaŋ yaŋ baa da nin, i bisa ni gaabo mo. A furo nda nin mo, k'i laabo no ni se, a ma ciya ni mayray hari, mate kaŋ a go d'a hunkuna.

³⁹Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

³⁹ Woodin sabbay se, hunkuna ni ma bay, ni m'a jisi ni bina ra mo, kaŋ nga, Rabbi ya Irikoy no beena ra beene da ndunnya ra mo ganda. Afo kulu si no.

⁴⁰Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.

⁴⁰ Ni m'a hin sanney d'a lordey mo gana, kaŋ yaŋ ay go g'araŋ lordi nd'ey hunkuna, zama albarka ma goro ni gaa, da ni izey mo gaa ni banda. Ni aloomaro ma ku mo laabo din kaŋ Rabbi ni Irikoyo ga ni no hal abada ra.

⁴¹Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;

⁴¹ Waato din gaa no Musa na kwaara hinza suuban k'i fay waani, i go Urdun daŋanta wayna funay haray.

⁴²That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:

⁴² I ga te boro-wi kaŋ na nga gorokasin wi se, amma manti ibaay boŋ no, sanda a mana konn'a za doŋ. Bora din koy ma zuru ka koy kwaarey din afo ra, a ma funa mo.

⁴³Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.

⁴³ Kwaarey maayey neeya: Bezer kaŋ go saajo ra, batama laabo ra, Ruben kunda laabo ra, da Ramot kaŋ go Jileyad, Gad kunda laabo ra, da Golan mo kaŋ go Basan ra, Manasse kunda laabo ra.

⁴⁴And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:

⁴⁴ Woone wo mo, nga no ga ti asariya kaŋ Musa daŋ Israyla izey jine.

⁴⁵These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt.

⁴⁵ Ngey mo ga ti seedey da hin sanney da farilley kaŋ Musa salaŋ Israyla izey se waato kaŋ i fun Misira.

⁴⁶On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:

⁴⁶ I go noodin Urdun daŋanta, gooro din ra kaŋ go Bayt-Peyor tanjay, Amorancey bonkoono Sihon laabo ra, nga kaŋ goro Hesbon kwaara doŋ. Nga no Musa nda Israyla izey ŋwa waato kaŋ i kaa ka fun Misira.

⁴⁷And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;

⁴⁷ Israyla n'a laabo di mo a ma ciya ngey mayray hari, nga nda Basan bonkoono Og laabo. Amorancey bonkooni hinka nooya, kaŋ waato i go Urdun daŋanta wayna funay haray.

⁴⁸From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Hermon,

⁴⁸ Laabo ga di za Arower kwaara kaŋ go Arnon gooro me gaa, ka koy to Sihon tondo gaa (danga Hermon nooya.)

⁴⁹And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.

⁴⁹ A go mo Gooru Beero ra Urdun daŋanta wayna funay haray ka koy hala Gooru Beero Teeko do, Pisga tondi beero gangara cire.
