Deuteronomy 27
1 And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded, saying, Keep all these commands, all that I command you this day.
UMozisi labadala bakoIsrayeli basebelaya abantu besithi: Gcina yonke imithetho engililaya yona lamuhla.
2 And it shall come to pass in the day when ye shall cross over Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God gives thee, that thou shalt set up for thyself great stones, and shalt plaster them with plaster.
Kuzakuthi-ke mhla lichapha iJordani lisiya elizweni iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekunika lona, uzazimisela amatshe amakhulu, uwahuqe ngekalaga,
3 And thou shalt write on these stones all the words of this law, as soon as ye have crossed Jordan, when ye are entered into the land, which the Lord God of thy fathers gives thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, according as the Lord God of thy fathers said to thee.
ubhale kuwo wonke amazwi alumlayo nxa usuchaphile, ukuze ungene elizweni iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ekunika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, njengalokho iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyihlo ikhulumile kuwe.
4 And it shall be as soon as ye are gone over Jordan, ye shall set up these stones, which I command thee this day, on mount Gaebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
Kuzakuthi-ke selichaphile iJordani, limise lamatshe engililaya ngawo lamuhla, entabeni yeEbhali, liwahuqe ngekalaga.
5 And thou shalt build there an altar to the Lord thy God, an altar of stones; thou shalt not lift up iron upon it.
Wakhele khona iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ilathi, ilathi lamatshe. Ungasebenzisi insimbi phezu kwawo.
6 Of whole stones shalt thou build an altar to the Lord thy God, and thou shalt offer upon it whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord thy God.
Wakhele iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ilathi ngamatshe apheleleyo. Unikele phezu kwalo iminikelo yokutshiswa eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakho,
7 And thou shalt there offer a peace-offering; and thou shalt eat and be filled, and rejoice before the Lord thy God.
uhlabe iminikelo yokuthula, udle lapho, uthokoze phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho.
8 And thou shalt write upon the stones all this law very plainly.
Futhi ubhale phezu kwamatshe wonke amazwi alumlayo, kukhanye kuhle.
9 And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Be silent and hear, O Israel; this day thou art become a people to the Lord thy God.
UMozisi labapristi abangamaLevi basebekhuluma kuIsrayeli wonke besithi: Thula ulalele, Israyeli; lamuhla usuyisizwe seNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho.
10 And thou shalt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and shalt do all his commands, and his ordinances, as many as I command thee this day.
Ngakho uzalalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, wenze imilayo yayo lezimiso zayo engikulaya zona lamuhla.
