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.

Imi muri vana vaJehovha Mwari wenyu. Musazvicheka kana kuzviveura pamberi pomusoro muchiitira vakafa,

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.

nokuti muri rudzi rutsvene kuna Jehovha Mwari wenyu. Jehovha akakutsaurai kubva pakati pendudzi dzose dziri panyika kuti muve rudzi rwake runokosha.

3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.

Musadya chinhu chipi zvacho chinonyangadza.

4 These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

Idzi ndidzo mhuka dzamungadya: mombe, hwai, mbudzi,

5 the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.

nondo, mhara, mhembwe, ngururu, mharapara, nyati nehwai yomugomo.

6 Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.

Mungadya henyu mhuka ipi neipi ina mahwanda akaparadzana kuita maviri uye inodzeya.

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.

Zvisinei, pane idzo dzinodzeya kana dzina mahwanda akaparadzana, mahwanda akanyatsoparadzana, hamufaniri kudya ngamera, tsuro kana mbira. Kunyange zvazvo dzichidzeya hadzina mahwanda akaparadzana; hadzina kuchena kwamuri.

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.

Nguruvewo haina kuchena; kunyange zvayo ina mahwanda akaparadzana, haidzeyi. Hamufaniri kudya nyama yadzo kana kubata zvitunha zvadzo.

9 These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.

Pazvipuka zvose zvinogara mumvura, mungadya henyu zvose zvine zvimbi namakwande.

10 You shall not eat whatever does not have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.

Asi chipi nechipi zvacho chisina zvimbi namakwande hamufaniri kudya; nokuti hachina kuchena.

11 Of all clean birds you may eat.

Mungadya henyu shiri ipi neipi yakachena.

12 But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

Asi dzamusingafaniri kudya ndeidzi: gondo, gora, gora dema,

13 the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,

njerere tsvuku, njerere nhema, rukodzi namarudzi arwo,

14 every raven of any kind,

gunguo namarudzi aro ose,

15 the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,

zizi renyanga, kazizimbori, shiri yegungwa, namarudzi ose eruvangu,

16 the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,

zizi duku, zizi guru, zizi jena,

17 the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,

zizi romurenje, hukurwizi nekanyururahove,

18 the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

neshuramurove namarudzi ose ekondo, nemhupupu uye nechiremwaremwa.

19 All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.

Zvipuka zvose zvina mapapiro zvinokambaira hazvina kuchena kwamuri; hamufaniri kuzvidya.

20 Of all clean birds you may eat.

Asi zvipuka zvose zvina mapapiro zvakachena mungadya henyu.

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.

Musadya chii zvacho chamunoona chakafa. Mungapa zvenyu kumutorwa agere mune rimwe ramaguta enyu, uye angadya zvake kana kuti mungatengesera zvenyu kumutorwa. Asi imi muri rudzi rutsvene kuna Jehovha Mwari wenyu. Musabika mbudzana mumukaka wamai vayo.

22 You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.

Chenjera kuti utsaure chegumi chezvinhu zvose zvaunokohwa muminda yako gore negore.

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.

Udye chegumi chezviyo, newaini itsva namafuta uye nezvibereko zvokutanga zvemombe dzako nezvamakwai ako pamberi paJehovha Mwari wako panzvimbo yaachasarudza kuti Zita rake rigarepo, kuitira kuti udzidze kutya Jehovha Mwari wako nguva dzose.

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,

Asi kana nzvimbo yacho iri kure uye waropafadzwa naJehovha Mwari wako, uye usingagoni kutakura chegumi chako (nokuti nzvimbo ichasarudzwa naJehovha kuti Zita rake rigarepo iri kure),

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.

ipapo unofanira kutsinhanisa chegumi chako nesirivha, ugotora sirivha ugoenda nayo kunzvimbo ichasarudzwa naJehovha Mwari wako.

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.

Shandisa sirivha yacho kutenga zvaungada, zvakadai sezvizvi: mombe, makwai, waini kana zvimwe zvokunwa zvinobata, kana chinhu chipi zvacho chaunoda. Ipapo iwe neimba yako muchadya pamberi paJehovha Mwari wenyu mugofara.

27 You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.

Uye musazokanganwa vaRevhi vagere mumaguta enyu, nokuti havana mugove kana nhaka yavowo.

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.

Panopera makore matatu oga oga, munofanira kuuya nezvegumi zvegore iroro uye mugozvichengetera mumaguta enyu,

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.

kuitira kuti vaRevhi (avo vasina mugove kana nhaka yavowo) uye nomweni, nherera nechirikadzi vanogara mumaguta enyu, vauye vagodya vachiguta, uye kuitira kuti Jehovha Mwari wenyu akuropafadzei pamabasa ose amaoko enyu.
