Deuteronomy 14
1 You are the children of the LORD your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
Inu ndinu ana a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Osamadzichekacheka kapena kudzimeta pamphumi chifukwa cha abale anu amene amwalira,
2 For you are a holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
pakuti ndinu anthu opatulika a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Pakati pa anthu onse pa dziko lonse lapansi, Yehova wasankha inu kuti chikhale chuma chake chamtengo wapatali.
3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.
Musamadye chinthu chilichonse chonyansa.
4 These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
Nyama zomwe mukhoza kudya ndi izi: ngʼombe, nkhosa, mbuzi,
5 the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.
mbawala, gwape, mphoyo, mphalapala, ngoma, nyumbu ndi mbalale.
6 Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
Nyama iliyonse imene ili ndi chipondero chogawikana pakati ndi yobzikula mukhoza kudya.
7 Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, they are unclean to you.
Komabe pakati pa nyama zimene zimabzikula kapena zogawikana zipondero, zimene simukuyenera kudya ndi ngamira, kalulu ndi mbira. Zimenezi ngakhale zimabzikula, zipondero zake sizogawikana, choncho ndi zodetsedwa, musadye.
8 The pig, because it has a split hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.
Nkhumba simabzikula ndi yodetsedwanso ngakhale ili ndi zipondero zogawikana. Musamadye nyama yake kapena kukhudza imene yafa.
9 These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.
Mwa zamoyo zonse zimene zimakhala mʼmadzi, mukhoza kudya chilichonse chimene chili ndi minga ya pa msana ndi mamba.
10 You shall not eat whatever does not have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.
Koma chilichonse chimene chilibe minga ya pa msana ndi mamba musadye pakuti nʼchodetsedwa.
11 Of all clean birds you may eat.
Mukhoza kudya mbalame iliyonse yoyenera kudya.
12 But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,
Koma simukuyenera kudya izi: mphungu, nkhwazi, mwimba,
13 the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,
nankapakapa, akamtema, akhungubwi a mitundu yonse, ndi mtundu uliwonse wa miphamba,
14 every raven of any kind,
mtundu uliwonse wa khwangwala,
15 the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,
kadzidzi wamphondo, kadzidzi wodzuma, chipudo, mtundu uliwonse wa akabawi,
16 the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,
kadzidzi wamngʼono, chiswankhono ndi mantchichi,
17 the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,
tsekwe, vuwo, dembo,
18 the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.
indwa, zimeza za mitundu yonse, nsadzu ndi mleme.
19 All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.
Zowuluka zonse za miyendo inayi ndi zodetsedwa. Musamadye zimenezi.
20 Of all clean birds you may eat.
Koma chowuluka chilichonse choyenera kudya mukhoza kudya.
21 You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
Musamadye chilichonse chimene mwachipeza chofaifa. Mukhoza kupatsa mlendo amene akukhala mu mzinda wina uliwonse wa mizinda yanu. Iyeyo akhoza kudya kapena mukhoza kugulitsa kwa wina aliyense amene sali wa mtundu wanu. Koma inu ndinu anthu opatulika a Yehova Mulungu wanu. Musamaphike mwana wambuzi mu mkaka wa mayi wake.
22 You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.
Muzionetsetsa kuti mukupatula chakhumi pa zokolola zanu chaka chilichonse.
23 You shall eat before the LORD your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.
Muzidyera chakhumi cha tirigu wanu, vinyo wanu watsopano ndi mafuta, ndi ana oyamba kubadwa a ngʼombe zanu pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu pa malo amene adzasankhe ngati kokhalako dzina lake, kuti muphunzire kuopa Yehova Mulungu wanu.
24 If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which the LORD your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when the LORD your God blesses you,
Koma ngati malo amenewa ali kutali kwambiri ndipo kuti inu mwadalitsidwa ndi Yehova Mulungu wanu, ndipo simungathe kunyamula chakhumi chanu (chifukwa chakuti malo amene Yehova adzasankha kukayikako dzina lake ali kutali kwambiri),
25 then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose.
ndiye musinthitse chakhumi chanucho ndi siliva, ndipo mutenge silivayo ndi kupita naye kumalo kumene Yehova Mulungu wanu adzasankhe.
26 You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household.
Gwiritsani ntchito silivayo kugula chilichonse chimene muchifuna monga ngʼombe, nkhosa, vinyo kapena zakumwa zina zosasitsa, kapena china chilichonse chimene muchifuna. Ndipo inu ndi anthu a pa banja panu mudzazidyera komweko pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi kukondwera.
27 You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
Alevi okhala mʼmizinda yanu musaleke kuwathandiza popeza alibe gawo lawo la chuma kapena cholowa chawochawo.
28 At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates.
Kumapeto kwa zaka zitatu zilizonse muzibweretsa zakhumi zonse pa zokolola za chaka chimenecho ndi kuzisunga mʼmidzi yanu,
29 The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
kuti Alevi (amene alibe gawo lawo la chuma kapena cholowa chawochawo), alendo, ana ndi akazi amasiye, amene akukhala mʼmizinda yanu akhoza kubwera kudzadya ndi kukhuta. Ndipo kuti akutero Yehova Mulungu wanu akudalitseni pa ntchito zanu zonse.
