1

As hig eh gy-kione, erreish da ooilley ny reddyn shoh v'er jeet ort, yn bannaght as y mollaght, ta mee er hoiaghey royd, as tra chooinys oo orroo, mastey ny ashoonyn, huc ta'n Chiarn dty Yee er n'eiyrt oo,

And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath driven thee,

2

As oo dy hyndaa gys y Chiarn dty Yee, as biallys y choyrt da e choraa, ayns ooilley ny ta mee sarey dhyt jiu, oo hene, as dty chloan, lesh ooilley dty chree, as lesh ooilley dty annym.

And shalt return unto the Lord thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;

3

Dy jean y Chiarn dty Yee chyndaa dty chappeeys, as bee chymmey echey ort, as nee eh meiyghey, as chaglym shiu ass dy chooilley ashoon, nyn vud ta'n Chiarn dty Yee er dty skeayley.

That then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath scattered thee.

4

My ta veg jeh dty heeloghe er nyn imman magh er feaï-ny-cruinney, veih shen nee'n Chiarn dty Yee dty haglym, as voish shen ver eh lesh oo.

If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the Lord thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:

5

As ver y Chiarn dty Yee lesh oo reesht gys cheer eiraght dty ayraghyn, as yiow cummal ayn: as bee eh mie rhyt, as oo y vishaghey erskyn dty ayraghyn.

And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

6

As nee'n Chiarn dty Yee dty chree y yiarey-chymmylt, as cree dty luight, dy choyrt graih da'n Chiarn dty Yee, lesh ooilley dty chree, as lesh ooilley dt' annym, dy vod oo ve beayn.

And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

7

As ver y Chiarn dty Yee ooilley ny mollaghtyn shoh er dty noidyn, as orroosyn ta dwoaie oc ort, ren tranlaase ort.

And the Lord thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.

8

As nee oo chyndaa reesht, as coyrt biallys da coraa'n Chiarn, as cooilleeney ooilley e annaghyn, ta mee jiu dy dty harey.

And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the Lord, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.

9

As nee'n Chiarn oo y vishaghey ayns ooilley obbraghyn dty laue, ayns sluight dty chorp, ayns ingan dty vaase, as ayns dty vess hallooin son dty vie: son nee'n Chiarn boggey 'goaill jeed reesht, son foays dhyt, myr ghow eh boggey jeh dty ayraghyn:

And the Lord thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for the Lord will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:

10

My eaishtys oo rish coraa'n Chiarn dty Yee, dy reayll e annaghyn, as e lattyssyn, ta scruit ayns lioar y leigh shoh; as my nee oo chyndaa gys y Chiarn dty Yee, lesh ooilley dty chree, as lesh ooilley dty annym.

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.

11

Son yn anney shoh, ta mee dy harey dhyt jiu, cha vel eh follit voïd; chamoo te foddey jeh.

For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.

12

Cha nee ayns niau te, dy niarragh oo, Quoi hed seose gys niau er nyn son, dy choyrt lesh hooin eh, dy vod mayd clashtyn, as jannoo eh?

It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?

13

Chamoo te cheu elley jeh'n aarkey, dy niarragh oo, Quoi hed harrish y cheayn er nyn son, dy choyrt lesh hooin eh, dy vod mayd clashtyn, as jannoo eh?

Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?

14

Agh ta'n ghoo feer faggys dhyt, ayns dty veeall, as ayns dty chree, dhyt dy chooilleeney eh.

But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.

15

Jeeagh, ta mee er hoiaghey royd yn laa jiu bea as mie, baase as olk:

See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;

16

Liorish dy vel mee dy dty harey jiu, dy choyrt graih da'n Chiarn dty Yee, dy immeeaght ayns e raaidyn, as dy reayll e annaghyn, as e lattyssyn, as e vriwnyssyn, dy vod oo ve beayn, as bishaghey: as nee'n Chiarn dty Yee oo y vannaghey 'sy cheer, huggey t'ou goll dy chummal ayn.

In that I command thee this day to love the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the Lord thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

17

Agh my nee dty chree chyndaa ersooyl, myr shen nagh n'eaisht oo, agh dy bee oo cleaynit dy choyrt ooashley da jeeghyn elley, as dy hirveish ad:

But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;

18

Ta mee fockley magh diu yn laa jiu, dy jed shiu son shickyrys naardey, as nagh bee ny laghyn eu beayn 'sy cheer, huggey ta shiu goll harrish Jordan, dy ve dty eiraght.

I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.

19

Ta mee goaill niau as thalloo son feanish nyn 'oï, yn laa t'ayn jiu, dy vel mee er hoiaghey reue bea as baase, bannaght as mollaght: shen-y-fa gow bea myr reih, dy vod chammah oo hene as dty luight ve beayn:

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

20

Dy vod oo graih y choyrt da'n Chiarn dty Yee, as ve biallagh gys e choraa, as dy vod oo lhiantyn huggey [son eshyn dty vioys, as lhiurid dty laghyn] dy vod oo cummal ayns y cheer, vreear y Chiarn da dty ayraghyn, da Abraham, da Isaac, as da Jacob, dy choyrt daue.

That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
