1

Ver shiu tastey dy chooilleeney ooilley ny annaghyn ta mee dy harey dhyt jiu, dy vod shiu ve beayn, as bishaghey, as goll stiagh, dy ghoaill possession jeh'n cheer, vreear y Chiarn da ny ayraghyn eu.

All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers.

2

As nee oo cooinaghtyn er ooilley'n raad ren y Chiarn dty Yee dty leeideil, rish y da-eed bleïn shoh 'syn aasagh, dy dty injillaghey, as dy dty phrowal, dy hoilshaghey cre v'ayns dty chree, baïlt's e annaghyn y reayll, mannagh baïlt.

And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.

3

As ren eh dty injillaghey, as lhig eh dhyt dy ve accryssagh, as ren eh beaghey oo lesh manna (red nagh row fys ayd's ny ec dy ayraghyn cre ve) dy choyrt toiggal dhyt nagh nee er arran ny-lomarcan ta dooinney beaghey, agh liorish cre-erbee ta cheet magh ass beeal y Chiarn ta dooinney beaghey.

And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.

4

Cha ren dty choamrey gaase shenn ort, chamoo ren dy chass gatt nish rish da-eed bleïn.

Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.

5

Nee oo myrgeddin goaill gys dty chree, 'naght myr ta dooinney smaghtaghey e vac hene, dy nee myr shen ta'n Chiarn dty Yee dy smaghtaghey uss.

Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.

6

Nee oo er-y-fa shen freayll annaghyn y Chiarn dty Yee, dy immeeaght ayns e raaidyn, as dy ghoaill aggle roish.

Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.

7

Son ta'n Chiarn dty Yee coyrt lesh oo gys cheer mie, cheer dy strooanyn ushtey, dy farraneyn, as diunidyn ta geill ass glionteenyn, as croink;

For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills;

8

Cheer dy churnaght, as oarn, dy viljyn-feeyney, as dy viljyn-figgagh, as pomegranateyn, cheer dy ooil-olive as mill;

A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey;

9

Cheer, ayn nee oo gee arran gyn genney, raad nagh bee oo feme nhee erbee, cheer ta ny claghyn echey yiarn, as veih ny croink echey foddee oo cleiy prash.

A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.

10

Erreish dhyt v'er n'ee, as oo ve jeant magh, eisht cur booise da'n Chiarn dty Yee, son y cheer mie t'eh er choyrt dhyt.

When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

11

Bee er dty hwoaie, nagh jarrood oo yn Chiarn dty Yee, liorish mee-viallys gys e annaghyn, as e vriwnyssyn, as e lattyssyn, ta mee dy harey dhyt jiu;

Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:

12

Er-aggle erreish dhyt v'er n'ee, as oo ve jeant magh, as er hroggal thieyn aalin, as cummal ayndoo;

Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;

13

As tra ta dty hellooyn, as dty hioltaneyn er vishaghey, as dty argid as dty airh er vishaghey, as tra ta ooilley ny t'ayd er vishaghey:

And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;

14

Nagh bee dty chree eisht mooaralagh, as dy jarrood oo yn Chiarn dty Yee (hug lesh uss magh ass cheer Egypt, veih thie ny bondiaght;

Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;

15

Ren dty leeideil trooid yn aasagh mooar agglagh shen, ayn va ard-nieughyn ailagh, as scorpionee, as fowan-loshtee, raad nagh row ushtey; hug lesh ushtey magh dhyt ass y chreg flint;

Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;

16

Ren uss y veaghey ayns yn aasagh lesh manna, red nagh row fys ec dty ayraghyn cre ve, dy injillaghey oo, as dy phrowal oo, son y foays ayd ec y jerrey;

Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;

17

As dy jir oo ayns dty chree, My phooar, as niart my laue hene ta er chosney'n verchys shoh dou.

And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.

18

Agh nee oo cooinaghtyn er y Chiarn dty Yee: son eshyn eh ta coyrt pooar dhyt dy gheddyn berchys, dy vod eh e chonaant y hickyraghey, vreear eh da dty ayraghyn, myr te er y laa jiu.

But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

19

Agh my nee shiu er aght erbee jarrood y Chiarn nyn Yee, as geiyrt da jeeghyn erbee elley, dy hirveish ad, as dy chur ooashley daue, ta mee gymmyrkey feanish nyn 'oï yn laa jiu, dy jean shiu son shickyrys cherraghtyn.

And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the Lord thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.

20

Myr ny ashoonyn ta'n Chiarn ry-hoi stroie kiongoyrt rish nyn eddin, er yn aght cheddin nee shiuish cherraghtyn: mannagh bee shiu biallagh da coraa yn Chiarn nyn Yee.

As the nations which the Lord destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the Lord your God.
